1. Orchid
What if Ozzy's Black Sabbath didn't change their sound with Technical Ecstasy and Never Say Day, and were still releasing killer studio albums in the 70s? Well, they would sound exactly like Orchid.
(2009) Through the Devil's Doorway EP
(2011) Capricorn
(2012) Heretic EP
(2013) The Mouths of Madness
2. Blood Ceremony
Well played flute, organ and riffs with a female vocalist create a great dark and occult atmosphere. What do you want more?
(2008) Blood Ceremony
(2011) Living With The Ancients
(2013) The Eldritch Dark
3. Witchcraft
Probably the best retro band coming out from Sweden. "Witchcraft" and "Firewood" have a terrific doom/occult rock sound, while "The Alchemist" and "Legend" have a more hard rock sound, but are great nonetheless.
(2004) Witchcraft
(2005) Firewood
(2007) The Alchemist
(2012) Legend
4. Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats
A very distinct retro doom/occult rock sound with a horror-movie feel in it. These UK guys are pure genius. Edit: I'm personally disappointed by their last release, but many other people seem to like it.
(2010) Vol. 1
(2011) Blood Lust
(2013) Mind Control
5. The Devil's Blood
Amazing female vocals and riffs. They remind me of a more heavy version of Coven. Of course they are awesome. Edit: Fuck!... the band broke up recently and released a final studio album which unfortunately sucks bad.
(2008) Come, Reap EP
(2009) The Time Of No Time Evermore
(2011) The Thousandfold Epicentre
(2013) III: Tabula Rasa or Death and the Seven Pillars
6. Burning Saviours
Doom band heavily inspired by the 70's. Their third release, Nymphs & Weavers, is instead pure 70's hard rock (and it's great!). Now they've return back to their original sound.
(2005) Burning Saviours
(2006) Hundus
(2007) Nymphs & Weavers
(2014) Boken Om Förbannelsen
7. Jex Thoth
(2008) Jex Thoth
(2009) Totem EP
(2010) Witness EP
(2013) Blood Moon Rise
8. Kadavar
An incredible german stoner/hard rock band with a doomy feeling in it!
(2012) Kadavar
(2013) Abra Kadavar
9. Ghost
Mercyful Fate meets the 70's. They had a lot of success with their debut. The second album... it's not that good.
(2010) Opus Emponymous
(2013) Infestissumam
10. Orne
This finnish progressive rock band reminds me of Black Widow's album Sacrifice. They create some of the most wondeful atmospheres I've heard.
(2006) The Conjuration By The Fire
(2011) The Tree Of Life
11. Noctum
(2010) The Seance
(2011) The Fiddler EP
