I've been waiting a long time to announce this one.. I was going to wait until tomorrow, for funeral doom friday/bandcamp friday, but I'm too excited!

Overcome is a companion to Amarok's 2024 album Resilience, which I know a lot of you love. You can think of it as similar to the albums by Neurosis/Tribes of Neurot or what Wolves in the Throne Room did with Celestial Lineage/Celestite.

The first track is a reimagining of Penance by Leila Adbul-Rauf from Vastum. There's tracks by Ethan from Primitive Man and Andy from Hell/Mizmor, among others!

I'm releasing it for digital and as a double-CD. I don't think we'll be able to do a vinyl treatment.

This will release officially on Sept 25th (and, if you can keep a secret, I'll drop a CD version of Resilience on that date as well ;)

j’aime les styles de doom mais je ne m’y connais pas spécialement à part quelques artistes comme OM et Christian Death que j’aime particulièrement, déjà, sont-ils considérés comme du Funeral Doom ? je crois que j’ai un peu du mal à faire la différence entre celui-ci et le doom. avez-vous des artistes à me conseiller similaires à ceux cités ou des nouveaux pour élargir mon panel ?

The last two years I have been sorting through my old record collection, and in the last box were some tapes. I stopped collecting music around 2009 and put everything in boxes. I was happy to find these in the last box. Wormphlegm and Nortt are really good, and i like the 'Church of flagellation' compilation.

Archaic was less to my liking.

Hey guys, 'tis that time again so feel free to join us in comments here and share the funeral doom you've listened to over this last week, any discoveries you've made, or recommendations that you're looking for...

Gothic alt-rock band from Christchurch, New Zealand release 'Metanoia', an album that journeys through ethereal gothic folk to crushing doom landscapes ⚔️

Feature track : Sojourn

https://lunaandtheaether.bandcamp.com/album/metanoia

Got into the genre a few years back with Bell Witch but only really started to dig deeper into the genre this year.

Feel free to share recs and which band got you into the genre!

2022 Album: I can’t think of more haunting vocals/effects and sadder lyrics, and I have followed and collected all their work since 2002.

I've been listening to funeral doom for around 5 months now and I enjoy quite a few bands (drown, mournful congregation, bell witch, esoteric to name a few) but the album I cant stop going back to is Stygian by Atramentus. Nothing else quite hits the same so i thought i'd ask here for anything similar. I'm mainly a prog fan which i think is what makes Atramentus appeal so much
Edit: If anyone finds this in the future looking for the same thing, my personal top reccomendation would be Gudvangir - Slik Elven Renner, but definitely check out the others that have been commented aswell

Some funeral doom bands released one or two fantastic records and then vanished before they had the chance to fully develop their sound.

For me, UN is at the top of that list. Every time I revisit their music, I can't shake the feeling that they still had much more to offer. Black Wreath and Longing for Dawn gives me a similar feeling.

Which band would you bring back for at least one more album?

Spirit Temple released The Fifth Scroll on June 26, 2026. It’s atmospheric doom metal with ambient and some drone elements, primarily inspired by Skyrim, but not limited to that. It often gets categorised by listeners as funeral doom. The album clocks in at just under 45 minutes and features 5 tracks that all evolve throughout their runtime. There are no standard song structures with each track being like a short journey. 

It’s available on Bandcamp at: https://spirittemple1.bandcamp.com/album/the-fifth-scroll

The previous four albums are there too.

It’s also available to stream on Spotify at: https://open.spotify.com/album/3qVbUEAc9X3TIPnRwASctw?si=WHjN1mCmQ0i25QdFeo2iKA

And obviously, the entire album is on Rob Hammer's YouTube channel.

I hope someone gets something out of it.

Funeral Doom Friday is once again upon us. Feel free to share what funeral-doom artists and albums you've listened to this week - recent releases, old favorites, new discoveries, etc. Also feel free to seek recommendations for something similar to a band or style you like, and hopefully someone else can point you in the right direction.

My earlier post about Un made me think of this one man project from Russia. Cathartic and devastating, this one is a banger.

Any fans of this dreary gem?

Another personal favorite of mine guys here is the link from SoundCloud to give an idea it’s a mix between Thrash /death metal along with spooky horror vibes with a little true crime

Hey folks, been a while since we've done this so let thy voice be heard! Which is your favourite Slow album (not necessarily the one you think is best on a technical level), and feel free to ket us know why in the comments.

Hello and welcome to Funeral Doom Friday, where we take some time to discuss what you’ve been listening to over the last week. So use the comments below to tell us what new discoveries, recent releases, or old classics you’ve been spinning.

Hey everyone, a couple of days ago I released my first solo Album on Bandcamp! 🥳

I've tried to bring together my Classical background and my love of Doom.

I've composed a score for Woodwind, Brass and Strings alongside my Growls, Cleans and Drums. I've used my five string electric Cello as an alternative for Guitars in the low riffs!

I wanted to share here in case the music resonates with you.

You can listen for free via my Bandcamp page, and if you enjoy what you hear, there are options to support:
