Agreed, as sounding like Metallica sold albums. If they had sounded like Metallica in a poor way I`d be trashing them, but they mixed in the Metallica sound with their own style and this resulted in a great album.
Same could also be said about Corrosion of Conformity, the album
Blind is probably the best album Metallica never did.
Given that like 90% of doom bands sound akin to Black Sabbath anyway, I don`t think accusing a doom band of copying somebody else that much of a serious crime. I mean Pentagram, Saint Vitus and Trouble on a lot of their albums sound like Black Sabbath mk.2...........and these three bands have put out some great albums.
