A Guide to Doom Metal & Its Subgenres

Описание: When heavy metal was born in Birmingham, Black Sabbath were also pioneering a sound that would later be known as doom metal. Let's explore how doom became its own style of metal, and how that style has branched off into a variety of diverse sub-genres since then. We'll look at the style's origins, key bands from the 80's through the '00s, and will cover some basics of epic doom, death doom, sludge metal, stoner metal, and drone.
