Your flagship band, Black Sabbath, has a singer that I absolutely loathe to listen to, and their very first song from their very first album is one of the most absolutely mind-numbingly boring tracks I've ever heard; and it's by the grace of God alone that I hit the "next track" button and, therefore, discovered "the Wizard" that I even allow this contemptible album to take up space on my computer hard drive at all.
Electric Wizard is the genre done right. What's that? I'm not allowed to call EW doom? Well never mind then, doom sucks.

Why wouldn't you be allowed to call Electric Wizard doom? They're the quintessential modern doom band. I'm not that into traditional doom myself but love modern doom. If you like EW I'd image you'd like a lot of modern doom.
