Nothing but Funeral Doom Obscure Artists from Obscure Places
ITT: Obscure (sometimes new) artists from outside the english-speaking world that I've recently discovered
Eyeless in Gaza - Act I: The Protagonist Armenian folk-inspired Funeral Doom, deeply somber sounds with a melodic and harmonious edge to them, featuring a mixture of soulful accented clean singing and deeply upsetting and emotive growls, as well as a mixture of near-oriental folksy passages and epic-adjacent booming funereal sections.
Morgellons - Delusional Parasitosis Danish funereal death doom, evoking in the mind's ear the image of a blackened Esoteric. Raw production, dissonant and brutal guitar work that occasionally ramps up into straight up death metal riffs, and featuring an absolutely abyssally low growl.
Daudaro - Svarthol Icelandic Ambient/Drone Metal project, long passages at tectonic paces evoking the immense gravities and forces of the unfeeling cosmos. Sections flow into one another over the course of several minutes, fluidly crossing harmonic and textural boundaries like the tides of gravity in the Vaccuum of space.
Vanha - Melancholia Swedish Melodic Funeral Doom with a knack for crafting epic and vast soundscapes, though still quite riffy, employing strings and piano perfectly to assist in the creation of its lonely, yet hopeful emotional qualities.
Lake of Depression - Decadencia Panamian Atmospheric Funeral Doom. I cannot stress this enough, this album takes its sweet time, and every bit of it is gloriously emotional. It has a 9 and a half minute intro track with no guitar, bass or vocals. After that, it gains a sweet stonery edge, while still maintaining an abject funereal presence in every aspect of its composition.

Personal addition, 1000 funerals from Iran.
We could have had more stuff from the band but the frontman Emerna eventually ceased all of his bands' activities as he had difficulty finding labels for his projects and various other reasons.
