Is Ghost eligible for this list?

Not yet, if artists like Saturnus and Swallow the Sun are at the bottom of the list.

I don't think Ghost are doom, anyway.

Pagan Altar should be higher, and Witchfinder General are actually more traditional metal than doom.
Trouble is another band that kinda straddles that fence.

Trouble and Witchfinder General are both doom and Pagan Altar doesn't need to move up.

Trouble is just as much thrash as they are doom. Have you not even listened to Psalm 9 and The Skull?

I have listened to Psalm 9 (and Trouble and Manic Frustration) and they sure as fuck aren't thrash in any way.

Trouble have a their thrash metal-like moments Psalm 9, but they're definitely doom. Doom doesn't have to be slow paced all the time.

So I've gotten six doom metal albums ever since I started exploring the genre more:

SAINT VITUS:
Saint Vitus
The Walking Dead/Hallow's Victim

WITCHFINDER GENERAL:
Death Penalty

PENTAGRAM:
Relentless

CANDLEMASS:
Epicus Doomicus Metallicus
Nightfall

Obviously, the 'traditional' style of doom is where my true love lies.
So any recommendations on what to get next?

How is Saturnus not in the top 30? Type O and Swallow the Sun need to move up considerably as well.
