Anyway, funeral doom is something I hadn't listened to in a while until my flatmate started getting into it recently - in fact he just bought two Monolithe albums from overseas. Skepticism, Esoteric, Ahab and Wreck of the Hesperus are all great bands.

Funeral doom is a concept that appeals greatly to me. I enjoy alot of my doom music dark and maybe even slightly ambient but it has never occured to me before I read this thread that I don't actually appear to have much of it at all. I adore Evoken's Shades of Night Descending and should focus on trying to find some similar records.

I hear this band lumped with funeral doom a lot, but the more I listen to them the less funeral doom they sound. Their melodies are often a bit more fast paced and their textures are often more used in a way that is jarringly beautiful as opposed to downtrodden and crushing. I also often find their lyrics to be weirdly optimistic and sarcastically hopeful which gets away from the whole funeral doom feeling.
