For this #Saturdoom I will share with you an artist that doesn’t use guitars in their music, a first for me.

Slovenian act Forged Relics released their debut Portal recently. It’s a glacially slow, crushingly heavy #FuneralDoom record that, as promised, does not feature guitars in any way.

It consists of vocals (stately clean and guteral grunts), drums and a church organ. It feels as if Nosferatu and Dracula teamed up to create this beautiful experience.

Give it a listen!

My #SaturDoom song for this week is from the new Dutch #doom outfit Structure who just released their debut last week. The album herritage features heavy growling #DeathDoom with a very layered structure to it. At times songs get so low and slow that it becomes #FuneralDoom. A very interesting listen to be sure and this record is starting to live rent free in my brain.

This Saturday we observe #SaturDoom, a day in the week when we share our deepest en most gloomy thoughts and emotions through the medium of #music. The genre of #Doom spans more than #metal, #rock or #electronic music, but shares a deep and brooding feeling of dread, despair, sorrow and pain. And through these emotions creates beautiful music.

If you want an excellent list #FediCurated music, follow #SaturDoom. If you want to add to this list, please feel free to do so by sharing your choice of music with the hashtag #Saturdoom. And if you want this message to gain traction, please give it a boost.

My pick will follow in a later message today.

My addition to #SaturDoom is the new album from In the Woods...., this #DoomMetal outfit makes some pretty compelling #doom mixed with some #Gothic, #Black and #Folk influences. Stately cleans combined with gutteral growls and beautiful melodic lines that reminds me of the older style Paradise Lost.

It is #Saturdoom today, the day where we shine a dark light on the gloomy musical genre #doom. A versatile genre that spans the gamut from pure 'old school' doom to psychedelic doom to the very low & slow style of funeral doom.

Everything goes and if you want to contribute to #Saturdoom please feel free to do so.

My addition will follow in a later message.

It’s #SaturDoom again, live from #Roadburn2025 today! Let’s welcome @AHAB to the #Fediverse today by high lighting one of their songs.

#Nautic #FuneralDoom from #Germany moving at a glacial pace while growling as if it comes from the depths of the Mariana’s trench.

Welcome Ahab! Hope you enjoy your stay! (When Roadburn / Soulcrusher (again)).
