1) If black and death metal have their own threads, then doom has to have one too!
2) Mostly inspired to open the thread to post this, because it's pretty unique:
Swallow the Sun are all set to release their dark triple full-length album on November 13th, 2015.
Each of the three albums of “Songs from the North I, II & III” embodies the band’s unofficial band motto, “Gloom, Beauty & Despair”:
“Songs from the North I” continues in the vein of the albums before it – first-rate death-doom in the typical style of the band.
“Songs from the North II” is a beautiful, acoustic foray representing the group’s ability to unplug and revel in the darkness.
“Songs from the North III” is the most extreme album, a complete ride into SWALLOW THE SUN’s most horrific abyss of finely-crafted, conscience-crushing funeral doom.
The only other triple album I can think of is The Clash's Sandinista! and that was 35 years ago! Really excited for this.
For those interested in the band, here's a song from each of their previous 5 albums:
