We have a drummer, bassist(me), guitarist and vocalist.

As far as style, something that can be played while we wear corpse-ish paint an not be totally out of place. Our vocalist favours Norwegian black metal. We are Norwegian, so lyrics are no issue.

We are decent musicians, but we don't play a lot of metal, so please not that much super fast blastbeats or picking. Odd time signatures or rythms are no problem. Would also appreciate if they aren't 10 minutes long, Halloween isn't that far ahead, and we have little time to practice haha.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Blastbeats and fast picking is ok, it's mostly that my hand has bad stamina lol

Here are some Halloween-sounding songs that I could see you guys playing. They are metal songs, but not super fast. They also aren't black/doom metal, but they're doomy enough imo to suggest:

Uneven Structure - Succube & Funambule (These 2 songs are next to each other on their album's track listing, so Succube will end abruptly on the video I linked because it transitions into Funambule.)

Leprous - Passing (I think this one will work best for you guys.)

Between the Buried and Me - The Future is Behind Us (For this song, I suggested it because the second half of it is heavy af and when watching the music video, the song seems more eerie.)

Gojira - Vacuity (I can definitely see you guys playing this.)

Also, the first 3 songs listed contain a mix of clean & harsh vocals and the 4th song is purely harsh vocals.

Considering the members and the restrictions, I’d probably just recommend something from Filosofem, like “Erblicket Die Töchter Des Firmaments”

Not gonna get too much black metal that doesn't involve fast picking. Maybe some Burzum. War or Det Som En Gang Var or Dunkelheit.

Walk in the Blue Light and Forever My Queen are some cool doom songs by Pentagram

Black No 1 by Type O Negative. It's pretty easy to play and works well at Halloween parties.

Immortal - We Are The Tyrants

Anything by Evoken

Dracula by Rob Zombie is one of my favorite Halloween metal 🎵
