Anyone here like Type O Negative? I got Origin of the Feces a week ago, and thought it was excellent. For those who havent heard them, they play Gothic Doom with the occasional hint of punk. Also dont be put off by the Goth tag, they are neither whiny or have a woman doing opera vocals.
Man I really wanted to but we ended up playin a show in Little Rock with Music Hates You and The Witches Tit.
I heard that the best bands were Zoroaster, High on Fire, and Harvey Milk.

not surprising at all, though Im sure the others were awesome, especially baroness
Holy War: What basses do you guys think get the best doom tones?
I Use a jazz bass through a Orange amp and it sounds great. Ricks sound amazing in Doom too. Precision basses are good to, I'm dying to get one. Also would any of you know how to get a tone like this , would that be just a touch of distortion?

I guess my opinion would be anything with really strong growly mids and a vintage tone. A jazz is definitely good. Ricks, Ps, are also at the top of my list. Maybe some old school Gibsons as well like the EB-0, Grabber, etc etc
As far as Repulsion tone, I would say a P (obviously), and a good old pushed tube amp. Mesa 400+, Ampeg VR driven hard would definitely get you in that area tone wise
Would there be any kind of pedal that would give me a similar tone? LONG LIVE DOOM, GRIND, AND THE UNDERGROUND!!!
Also thanks for the advice Holy War

Yeah, I really hope High on Fire swing's through Denver or the springs this year. I'm kinda bummed that Mastodon is coming to Colorado, but only to boulder.

ya but theyre going to be playing new material man so it should all be good
Boulder is full of stinky hippies though.
I dunno. Tickets are only $20, and this is a 700 capacity place. Might be a good show. I'll see if I can get tickets. The only other thing is I have to drive through Denver to get there.
