Collection: Doom Metal

A slow, crushing, and emotionally heavy branch of metal, Doom Metal traces its roots to the early ’70s with the colossal riffs of Black Sabbath and evolved into countless substyles through the ’80s and ’90s. Defined by down-tuned guitars, lumbering tempos, haunting vocals, and an atmosphere thick with despair, it trades speed for weight—letting every note sink like a stone. Doom is about mood: bleak, hypnotic, and unrelenting.

Key pillars of the genre include Candlemass, Saint Vitus, Trouble, Electric Wizard, and Katatonia.

Massive, mournful, and crushing—doom metal is the sound of the world slowing to a hopeless crawl.
