Doom or stoner metal would be what you are after.
Paradise Lost (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Dq-27kMZ7I),
Anathema (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foMwW...eature=related),
My Dying Bride (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQULoTInj9M),
Candlemass (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd9OJe60JWg) would be good examples of doom metal.

sHeavy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPhk9aVufL4) are borderline stoner, but really catchy.
Theatre of Tragedy are a gothic doom (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXniwSqBgjg)
