Blues and extreme metal?
Does anyone know of any bands that combine blues, specifically delta blues, and black/death metal? I'm from the South and I've always loved blues and country music, as well as extreme metal. I've been trying to find bands that combine these styles but nothing has really scratched the itch. I know there's a lot of doom bands out there with blues influences but I'm looking for something like the way Panopticon mixes in Appalachian folk and bluegrass with black metal. Zeal and Ardor is the closest I've found but I think their execution is off a lot of the time. Opeth has some bluesy stuff but they lean more prog. Mastodon has some country influence but they're not as extreme as I'm looking for. These are all some of my favorite bands in their own right but I'm curious if anybody has any recommendations along these lines.
