AHAB

SATURDAY

Ahab, a German doom and sludge metal band, was founded in 2004 by members of Midnattsol and Penetralia. Inspired by nautical themes, they coined the term "Nautik Funeral Doom" and gained attention with their 2006 debut The Call of the Wretched Sea, praised as a modern funeral doom classic. Subsequent albums, including The Divinity of Oceans (2009), The Giant (2012), and The Boats of Glen Carrig (2015), explored maritime horror and expanded their sound with progressive and ambient influences. After extensive touring, they released Live Prey in 2020, a live rendition of their debut, cementing their legacy in doom metal.
