And yeah Catacombs are great. Never really got into Skepticism as much. I tried Stormcrowfleet and didn't like it much. I'm gonna dig it out and try again though.
Really? Well...my uneducated ass just checked metal-archives and last.fm (not that i need to check,i'm a doom fanatic), both have MB as death doom.

You've got it the wrong way around. MB are death doom, with the occasional funeral doomesque passage. Listen to Ahab or Skepticism...that is proper funeral doom, and it is distinctly different from Mourning Beloveth. In fact i can't ever remember anyone saying MB are funeral.

If you think MB are funeral just because of the slow tempo, then so were Morgion...which is just wrong.
