Death-doom

Death-doom (also known as death-doom metal or doom-death) is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal. It combines the slow tempos and pessimistic or depressive mood of doom metal with the deep growling vocals and double kick drumming of death metal. The genre emerged in the late-1980s and gained a certain amount of popularity during the 1990s, but had become less common by the turn of the 21st century. In turn, death-doom gave rise to the closely related genre of funeral doom as well as to the more melodic, gloomy and romantic gothic metal. Quotes about death-doom The line between doom and death metal can seem to some as simply a matter of tempo. But what needs remembering is the intent. As titles go, Rotting Misery from Paradise Lost’s Lost Paradise debut set out the distinction clearly. It also defined a new subgenre: doom-death. Nick Ruskell of Kerrang!
