Unfortunately there isn't much like Comus. Just treasure that album and try not to over play it.
Natalie Rose Lebrecht - Warraw
not similar at all
This isn't as insane as Comus, much slower, but to me it sounds like a bad mushroom trip in a misty Bavarian forest at night. No drums on the album btw
Glad I stopped by this board, I found a new band to listen to.
Comus is pretty unique, the vocals are pretty out there.
Some of it sort of reminded me of Hexvessel songs like "I am the ritual" and "Masks of the Universe" and "Woods to Conjure"
Hexvessel's music is slow, though, and less varied than what I just heard by Comus.
You might enjoy some of the music on labels like Hand/Eye Records, or Dark Holler Arts
ill check it out. this is their best song btw
youtube.com
and i really like this, some weird polish folk. no where near as crazy as comus but still cool
Thanks user for recommending a great new/old band like Comus. I just saw their music dates from 1971 and they're long since broke up. Disappointing, briefly thought they were a new creation, oh well.
If you enjoy a lot of varied, experimental vocals and unusual instrumentation in your music, are listening to 1970s or earlier, you may also want to try:
Can - Tago Mago
Harry Partch - any (Chorus of Shadows, etc)
Sadly, the reason that album is so popular is exactly that people can't find anyone like them...but if instead you just look for other bands that were just doing their own thing rather than bands that sound exactly like a band you already know is good, you'll have a much more fruitful search
Like Cromagnon was nothing like Comus in sound but the spirit and brilliance is very similar

I remember I used to label this album a 10/10. It was the first ever album I was truely blown away by.
I know that Mikael from Opeth is a huge fan of Comus, put I can't point out any Opeth songs that sounds similar since I'm not really a fan of his band.
>used to
It is a 10/10 tho
Check prog archives. They have things organized pretty well and there are good recommendations.

Sure, they're not exactly similar, but they check all those boxes
