My drummer is really into this band that might fit your description. He’s from the UK as well.

Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out
- Thread starter Korladis

Didn't know Hyborian or Black Sleep of Kali. Checked em out, great stuff. Going to have to dive deeper into them.
I'd recommend Khemmis, Forming the Void, Saviours, Inter Arma
*I'm assuming you already know of/dig Mastodon, Yob, Neurosis. If not, get on those too!
Yeah Black Sleep of Kali were a great band. Sadly they only released one album before splitting up. One of their former bassists (though not the one n their full length, I think) plays in a really cool band called Abrams. They're kinda sludgy but also sort of post hardcore or something. Maybe sort of like Helms Alee but more metal. Highly recommended as well.
Hyborian also only has one full length so far. I already listen to the bands you mentioned but thanks for the suggestions!

Inter Arma is awesome.
I'm gonna dive into some of these other suggestions too.
LOVING that Boss Keloid track. Much thanks @Batsquatch !

Have you checked out Call of the Void? It's BSoK's drummer's band, Gordon Koch. BSoK's singer, Ben Pitts, is in a bunch of bands... False Cathedrals, Toboggan, NightWraith, and he just started playing bass for In the Company of Serpents.
Look what came in the mail! Very excited to try this out and see if it gets noisy the way i like.
Thanks. I'm familiar with that band. Great stuff. I hope people give them a listen.
What up dudes. May be joining a new covers band (Chicagoland area) set to get started in 2019. Playing a show at the end of December, only played 6 shows total in 2018 which is unacceptable so time to make some more action.
Thanks for the laughs. I gotta admit it's not totally up my alley, but I've done a bit of cover band work to fill the lack of gigs and band practice this year as well. Still been a ton of fun, but it's with friends and family so that made up for the lack of original/heavy tunes.
Honestly playing gigs are fun in themselves. Playing heavy and original stuff for gigs is just better though.

"Guys, is there room in the set between Mustang Sally and Brown Eyed Girl for this Sunn O jam?"

Dear Talkbass,
My covers band doesn't respect my opinion as the bassist. How can I convince them to play my songs, too?

Would anyone else be willing to chip in to get @Pelham Bleu a fedora?
For a cover band all he needs is a grandpa burst P bass with flats.
That's all ANYONE needs!
