framheim Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 kyusselectric wizardeyehategodclutchmacrocosmicaoh baby yea!!not heard any high on fire albums but they suck bad on the contaminated dvd. too much soloing. though apparently their albums are pretty good. obviously i should pick sabbath as well, but let's take that as a given. also check out pelican for instrumental stoner rock! iron monkey for aggro-stoner-sludgecore and fudge tunnel for a great version of sunshine of your love.come to valhella.that is all. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan G Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Hmmm... my favourite stoner rock bands are not the obvious ones:My favourite proper stoner band is without doubt the Spiritual Beggars - I have all five of their albums.I also LOVE "Nola" by Down one of my favourite albums of all time. Their second album was good but not great.I don't know if they can be counted as stoner AT ALL, but "Wiseblood" and "Deliverance" by Corrosion Of Conformity are also two of my all time awesome albums."Powertrip" by Monster Magnet is also a great album.I have a couple of Kyuss albums, and they're good but not my style really.

Dan G Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Yeah like Dave says, Sabbath are a given.Always wanted to check out Trouble too...Oh, and although it's more doom than stoner, I think "Supernatural Birth Machine" by Cathedral is fantastic.

Dan G Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 hahaha..good thinking Ben! Dave, i think St Vitus were a late 80's band which featured Wino (from Obsessed) on guitar and vocals.Could be wrong, but that's what my head tells me.

Guest highroller Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 you are right Wino is in both bands and is also involved on Grohl's Probot project as he was one of Grohl's fave metal gods. Cant say i have heard either band...Cathedral were pretty good...Lee Dorrian..what a voice...showed that he could REALLY sing after just grunting in Napalm Deaths "scum" era Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
