Why the haven't I heard this album before? It's fucking awesome.

Any other comparable albums, or is this as good as "stoner metal" gets?

Holy Mountain by Sleep

bump
Somebody please dump some good stoner metal shit itt

Only you can answer that question.

i did download that album since it's supposed to be one of the best, but it didn't sound great in my blown out stock car speakers. ill listen again after i smoke up tonight

>Any other comparable albums
Thousands

>or is this as good as "stoner metal" gets?
It does get a lot better.

rec me some shit my man

Listen to Come My Fanatics by Electric Wizard.
Bongripper - 'Satan Worshipping Doom' & 'The Great Barrier Reefer
Burning Witch - Crippled Luficer
Ufomammut - Eve
Cough - Ritual Abuse
Bongzilla - Gateway
Om - 'Pilgrimage' & 'Conference of the Birds'
Yob - The Great Cessation

Listen to everything this guy suggested, he knows his shit. Also get stoned before listening to all of it.

i personally prefer their previous album Come My Fanatics. There's tons of doom/stoner metal out there, just do some reseach and you'll find what you enjoy most. For me Electric Wizard is the best one tho.

thank you so much for these recs
will do

First five black sabbath albums
Corrosion of Conformity
Wo Fat
Fu Man Chu
apparently Boris but I never have got into them
Earth (some of it is a bit shit some of it is very very good)
Filosofem from Burzum
Sleep is a big one but not for me
Burning Witch is great, The Country Doctor is really good . It's a bit less Doom more death metal but hey.
so then you should also try Sun O))))))) for drone stoner low tuned guitar noise
Cathedral are big! They had some good album covers.
I like Noothgrush, I guess this is sludge more than stoner doom, again.

um. ..

St Vitus
Pentagram
try Uncle Acid and Purson
Mark Lannegan is pretty doom isn't he? Never smiles.

thanks a bunch!

Boris has some awesome albums, their drone stuff is great, but they're all over the place stylistically. You'd probably like all of their stuff up to Pink.

Also im really not sure on the distinction between "sludge" and "stoner doom"

Worrying about the distinction between sludge and stoner doom is just annoying, something like Omega Massif might not be stoner but it still goes well along with a band like Bongripper. Don't worry about it too much, if you like stoner/doom you'll probably like plenty of sludge/post metal.

If you think that's good, just wait until this clicks.

Check out some albums by Melvins like Bullhead and Lysol.

>Sludge:
Eyehategod
Grief
Noothgrush
Toadliquor
Leechmilk
Iron Monkey
Buzzoven
etc

>Stoner Doom
Electric Wizard
Cough
Sleep
Ufomammut
Bongripper
Church of Misery
Weedeater
Bongzilla
etc

You'll see the differences

Cathedral are purist Doom. It's flares, a 70s vibe and a mix between glam and metal and rock. In the beginning. Then it picked up an Americana flavor with Skater Doom (I'm not making this up) skateboards got involved some how, probably because they all smoke weed. You could draw a map if you wanted.

Yob, Cough, I forgot all about them.

There we go. Definitive.

>Any other comparable albums, or is this as good as "stoner metal" gets?

Depends on the style you like I'm not by any means a big stoner metal guy but I live near to where Electric Wizard are from so I had the heads up.

Bands I like although not all Stoner Rock

>earlier electric wizard stuff:Witchcult today,They Live,come my fanatics, Dopethrone etc
>Sleep-Dopesmoker
>Weedeater-God Luck and good speed. Super heavy fuzzed out riffs
>High on Fire
>Acid Kine-Busse Woods
>Lustmord & Melvins
>Dead Meadow
>sabbath
etc

OP here, you guys are great, metalfags are apparently the best people on this board despite all the memes.

Now that I'm good and baked I have to get started on all these recs.

I would say Weedeater is more sludge than stoner doom.

uh oh, it's starting to look like the difference is kind of subjective

Come My Fanatics is definitely more trippy im digging the fuck out of it

GOOD THREAD

dopesmoker is better

my fave doom bands are Windhand, Black Pyramind, Elder, Pallbearer, Witch, The Sword, Dopelord, and of course Sleep

Bong fuckin zilla

youtube.com/watch?v=FqGOy6YapVw

you're absolutely right but he's gotta hear other shit before trying to tackle an hour long doom song

Dopesmoker is the final boss of doom.

Kyuss is 50 times better, pleb.

Witchcult Today is better.

well kyuss -> stoner rock -> electric wizard -> doom metal mostly recent records have been stoner rock influenced but dopethrone is dooo))))m

which is almost identical to Let Us Prey and Black Masses

try conan theyre almost as heavy as wizard

preddy low

Elder is a pretty awesome stoner rock band. Definitely more accessible than Electric Wizard.

Dead Roots Stirring (2011): youtube.com/watch?v=0mZvARd0hY0

Lore (2015): youtube.com/watch?v=RbKlR8AGYmQ

Reflections of a Floating World (2017): youtube.com/watch?v=tqMfWwnLtKg

The band thrusted itself into prog/stoner/psych metal with Lore, and think the direction really worked for them. Dead Roots Stirring is a great record, but a little undistinguished compared to Lore and Reflections.

mfw at a conan gig sucking on trees & conan suddenly blasting out some hardcore punk type tempos.
