stoner sludge drone doom is what fills dark space around in vondurland 

Vondurland is a murky place... 

Spirit: The Horrors - Primary Colours; I was talking about whole CD/album, not about the one song only (which is arguably the weakest on the album)

Vondur: stoner sludge drone doom? wow, sounds heavy, Void must be full of this noise 

check if u dare

"Evocation I - The Arcane Dominion" by Eluveitie. Just bought it tonight. Folk metal type stuff. Seems a lot more subdued than the last album, though I am only a few songs in.

Samples from the previous album here:

nice musics there, you probably know, but still, i'd recommend you Enslaved, they're gods of proper viking metal

and the rest

No, I don't know, so I'll definitely check it out - thanks! 

Some beautiful ambient to sleep to:

BORIS - Japanese trippy, ambient, psychedelic drone 

BORIS - very boring noise 

all over the place sonically

some of it is nice 

I once had a family cat called Boris. He was cool, proper ginger tom.

The XIZM releases are great mellow drum'n'bass. 

i esp. like Equand - [Function Funk]

Xizm008 i like the least of the bunch. 

Mellow drum n base is pretty cool. 

New album from Alestorm, "Black Sails At Midnight". This is the pirate metal band. Grab a flagon of mead and sing along. :)

Oh I really like Korpiklaani but this stuff seems even better, thanks for the recommendation. 

Brilliant idea lol.

Although it does sound a lot like a pantomine version of old Iron Maiden.

You know, I might have to get it though. There's something a bit irresistable about it... 

For me Mastodon's Leviathan album better capture the pirate spirit even if it's built around Moby Dick and not actual pirating. 

Not really my area of music, but after being recommended Leviathan many times, I was very impressed when I finally checked it out.

That pirate metal sounds truly horrific. Novelty, aye. Quality, nay. The gigs are probably full of fat nerds.

...the pirate metal CD. Sorry but....well....I think I just had to :P.

I've also found a couple more death metal CDs that have tickled my fancy:

All Shall Perish - The Price Of Existence:

(also quite tempted by their slightly cruder and more brutal Hate Malice Revenge (which sounds quite a lot like Baphomet, no bad thing):
http://www.amazon.com/Hate-Malice-Revenge/dp/B000QZVA6M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=dmusic&qid=1244369659&sr=8-2 )

Kataklysm - In The Arms Of Devastation:

How about pirate hip-hop?

I love those guys. 

Its pirate metal ffs! Super cheesy to the max with cheese on top. Love it!

I have also had Leviathan recommended to me several times. I have that album and "Remission" here as well, they haven't really grabbed me yet though. I'm sure I'll come back to them eventually.

Shambler, thanks for the recommendations, I don't have those particular albums available to me (I only buy stuff through emusic these days) but I have bookmarked the artists for later consideration. In particular Kataklysm interested me ("Prevail" was the one I listed to briefly). 

http://www.digital-diamonds.com/home.html is a nice netlabel with techno/trance/progressive/house kind of sounds.
