Stoner Doom

I haven't really listened to much of it, but what I have listened to I like. I am looking to find some more. Does anyone here like Stoner Doom?
 
Stoner was overshadowed by grunge so I can understand why you missed out the first time, but you got alot of catching up. You got good advice so far. I'd start with Kyuss - Blues for the Red Sun, Fu Manchu - The Action is Go, Sleep Holy Mountain, Monster Magnet - The Spine of God, Orange Goblin - Time Traveling Blues. Electric Wizard is really out there. Very heavy and distorted. I suggest High on Fire - Art of Self Defense, and if you like that, get into Wizard. If you're hooked after this, move onto Acid Kings - Busse WooRAB, YOB - Use Your Illusion, Sleep - Jeruselem, Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley, Orange Goblin - Frequencies from Planet 10 and Solace - Further.
 
If you like the heavier side of things I've just discovered Noothgrush. They are mindnurabingly heavy. One reviewer of 'Erode The Person', their latest album, jokingly said he had to go outside about halfway through and let his body re-inflate.

Classic stoner riff stuff, but dropped down a few bars creating a very thick sludge. Ragged vocals everynow and again if that swings anyone one way or the other. Bongzilla like.
 
K I will check out those banRAB.

Yeah I don't really get stoned to music or in general. I am a Christian and I like to follow the laws and not get drunk. Plus I am under-aged.
 
Generally, Stoner Doom is my home:)

InvokeTheDarkAge mentioned Sleep. I'm not going to lie to you, these guys were the pinnacle of all that has and ever will be.

Seriously, start with Sleep's Holy Mountain, listen to all the other banRAB, then come back and finish yourself of with Sleep's Dopesmoker. They are that good.

Otherwise, I'll add to the list:

Goatsnake
Graves At Sea
Warhorse
High On Fire
YOB
Ultraphallus (one of the lamest names ever, yeah? Not a bad band however)
Sons Of Otis
Negative Reaction
Mammatus

Of those Goatsnake and Warhorse are excellent, as is High On Fire.
 
I think the one Stoner Doom band was YOB and I thought they were pretty good. And I might as well take your advice on the Sleep thing. It wouldn't hurt to try.
 
I love the heavy stuff. The reason I never investigated "Stoom" is because I didn't really get into Doom metal untill like 5 months ago. I didn't really know how to listen to music correctly untill last April 19th (Yes I marked it on my calendar.) So yeah I think that I have investigated a lot since then.
 
I still haven't heard Harvey Milk, I don't know how many times I've had the opportunity to listen to them and I haven't. Something I need to fix.

Cathedral is another good Stoner Doom band.
 
Blood is Truth

I've posted this a couple times before but this is an essential blog for all fans of the lurabering heavies! ADD IT TO YOUR FAVOURITES NOW!:)

Noothgrush is about half way down beneath the large animation of Borat, theres bound to be some Boris, check the other archives too.

I recommend getting yourselves some Truckfighters stuff, under the "Katie Holmes" post, not exactly doom but it's definitely great fuzzy riff rock, they're a well regarded band. Theres heaps of awesome shit there if you know what your looking for.

And the most recent post is of a dude from New Zealand, exciting!
