I just see Danzig as having too much of a blues edge to really fit into doom. It makes them kissing cousins, but I think their singular sound qualifies them as alternative in the sense that they fit into no real category. Danzig I at least, isn't doom. After that, maybe...

I could be persuaded to kick off Ufomammut, since I'm not as big a fan of that kind of thing as some, but I know they're fawned over by those that are, so I included them. And **** you. They never really released anything as solid as their debut, but Baroness' Red Album is amazing.
