Taak

Doom metal/stoner rock band from Estonia, active since 2005.

They themselves refer to their style as ugri-doom. Ugri, in turn, comes from the Estonian language/nationality being a part of the Finno-Ugric language group/group of nationalities (together with the Finns, the Hungarian and some smaller nationalities). The term Ugri-doom could be related to Taak singing purely in the Estonian language, or also the slowness and melancholy being equally dominant in Taak's music and, arguably, the nature of Finno-Ugric people.
