Doom Metal

I have been listening recently to quite a few doom metal bands such as Saint Vitus, Pentagram, and Candlemass. Its definitely a different side of heavy metal. Its heavy yet slow. Most people think of heavy metal as fast music because of thrash. Doom metal does a really great job conveying depression, isolation, and loneliness in different ways than other metal styles, while conveying emotions that some non-metal genres don't.
