I read an article years ago on MetalSucks that touted the 25 best doom metal songs. Naturally I went about trying to source and compile them into a playlist only to find that I didn't really like all the weird avenues and nuances of the doom metal genre. Sure I like the big names and the easier to digest groups, but most of that playlist wasn't my cup of tea. So I sat on this for... well pretty much since I started this blog. This was originally labeled as my mix #66, and here we are up at 554.
Over those years I took my time and if I came across a track that fit better with the overall feeling I wanted to express with this playlist I'd add it to the folder, and this could no longer be called a doom metal mix. Months later I'd review and scrap some tracks and resurrect others. Eventually I just said screw it, close enough, and I filled in the last few holes to make what is available here. I would love some recommendations for this genre as I know I'm missing some gems.
