Metal Fans: Favourite Funeral Doom band?

I don't listen to alot of Doom in general, but there are two Funeral Doom bands i do enjoy listening to, and to me are much better than others i've heard (small sample though)...Ahab and Evoken. Both have that extremely heavy doom sound but still have enough melody to keep me interested

Ahab

    Esoteric. They are the greatest Doom Metal band (Funeral or not) ever, period. Listen to them NOW, check this song out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAQNCJ04fnQ

    MQ2: Evoken. I love me some Ahab though

    I too do not listen to doom all that much let alone Funeral Doom , but when I do I listen to Abyssmal Sorrow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEfnPzWDRD0&feature...

    I really don't have a favorite , but I think Ahab could be one of them. I really like them , Evoken is good to but Ahab comes out on top for me. Thanks O!

    Also, ever since I heard ... when you told me about David Golds death , I have been on a Woods of Ypres journey.

    Ahab would have to be my favorite, but the number of Funeral Doom bands I've listened to is pretty small, to be honest.

    Skepticism and Thergothon, not exactly funeral doom though.
