Original post is pretty cool and spot on for the most part. It should be pointed out that bands like Sunn O))) arent necessarily straight up Doom Metal and may be harder to get into than a lot of actual Doom Metal. Bands like Saint Vitus, Trouble, Pentagram, those three are probably the more easy bands to get into for someone getting into Doom Metal. Candlemass is often credited as the original Epic-Doom Metal band, but may be hard for some people to get into because of the vocals.

Speaking of Grunge in the last couple posts, you're right early Grunge (Mudhoney, Green River, the Melvins (well, to a certain extent.) Fecal Matter) Then the bands that helped to form Grunge are where its really at. (Meat Puppets, Flipper, Wipers, Fang so on.)
