Stoner rock/metal has been by far the most fun sub-genre to jump into. Such an array of sounds across all albums and artists. Weedeater and acid bath are always my go to recommendations to set someone on the path
Pisses me off quite a bit TBH. Musicians are such hipsters, all that "we hate being labelled" sort of shit. Yeah, people make up words to describe your music, not to segregate you... And the coolest sub-genres all do it, Shoegaze ( so many effect pedals they stare at their shoes all gig) , Grunge , Stoner Rock are all very catchy cool words to describe a sound but musicians are so pretentious they can't accept it. So irratating. I'd love to one watch a band accept the word invented to desribe their genre.
Thanks to Alice in Chains, they introduced me to SOOO many other artists, and then to Kyuss, which lead to desert rock (or 'stoner' rock) is now one of my favorite types of music!
@Meme Man I knew,i was joking but apparently the Band Dopethrone is a reference to the Norwegian Black Metal Darkthrone. Either way : both are awesome.
Josh credits his "Kyuss" sound from 2 things"A Bass cabinet with two 15' woofers & no other speaker cabinet",And secondly he cites his guitar"A late 70's early 80's Neck-Through body Solid body Ovation Electric guitar"(used on all the recordings for Kyuss, can also be seen in any home video taken from this era). That sound he got on blues for The red sun, welcome to sky valley, and the circus leaves town,Queens of the Stone age Kyuss split EP(where they cover "Black Sabbath-Into the Void"). Is probably my most favorite guitar sound ever. Once I learned how to recreate that sound?.... When I play metal that's the only sound I use(to this day).
I really dig how you're bringing more of your personality to the channel. Makes the videos more engaging (they totally were before, but this is just a real nice addition)
One of my favorites in this genre is a band called Monkey3 with noteworthy songs like ‘through the desert’ and ‘Icarus’. They are largely instrumental and have many songs that are fairly lengthy, but really take u on a journey.
There's a few tracks of King Gizzard's new album that are very stoner/doomy as well. Check it out if you're into Sleep, Black Sabbath, Electric Wizard, etc
Monster Magnet had the "School-Free Drug Zone" concert t-shirt on the Superjudge tour. Over the course of of several years, I saw them perform two amazing shows and one muddled, self-indulgent, trainwreck turd of a show on the Powertrip tour.. That was the last time I saw them. Dopes is a great album. I still break it out from time to time.
Hey, catch this: Dopelord - Dead inside I&II Dozer - Star by star Truckfighters - Desrt Cruiser Lowrider - Convo V 1000mods - Into the spell True Widow - Four teeth etc by vibe... You are welcome.
Clutch sounding like Mastodon wasn't lost on Mastodon. Blood and Thunder features vocals from Neil Fallon of Clutch. As for Melvins, I would highly recommend the Stoner Witch album. Some of their best work. Mastodon's also covered their song "The Bit" from their Stag album. Check out King Gizzard, too, if you haven't. Great band from over here in Australia. Microtonal Flying Banana as well as Nonagon Infinity are great psychedelic/Stoner/punk/prog albums. They're pretty prolific and genre bending. They just released a stoner thrash album and a folky, bluesy, boogie based album in the one year haha.
Jesse Lapham That whole Melvins cover album is pretty damn good: We Reach, which is a song from the Ozma album that should be notes as a top stoner rock album.
Tbh you could just get 'Blues for the Red Sun' and 'Welcome to Sky Valley' and call it a day lol. However I'd also throw in 'The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull' by Earth, and 'Delmar' by Los Natas, who are a lesser-known outfit from Argentina. Or just raid Stoned Meadow of Doom's channel for albums!
I have a sincere problem with Kyuss' vocals. REALLY dislike his voice :s Allthough I quite enjoy the guitar parts, I seem to never get into them much because his vocals just throw me off. Much prefer Qotsa :p
Hey Lie, I have some recommendations for bands that fall under the progressive stone category. I've spent alot of time looking for good "stoner rock" Check out these: Mammoth Volume - Mammoth Volume Truckfighters - V, and basically everything they do Creature with the Atom Brain - The Birds Fly Low Witchcraft - Legend Reach out if you want more recommendations or want to talk about the genre.
Monster magnet was formed in 89, and their first official release its from 91. Dopes to infinity its from 95 and it was my first approach to this awesome band. Checkout the Wikipedia my young fella.
Here's some UK upcoming Stoner/Doom: doomedandstoned.bandcamp.com/track/into-the-vile Give the entire compilation album a listen if you're interested in the booming UK scene.
You know what song really, really reminds me of Cream and I'm wondering if it's as obvious to everyone else as it seems to me. It's not by a band featured in this vid, but it is a Josh Homme collaboration. Anyways, Scumbag Blues by Them Crooked Vultures sounds to me like they are consciously trying to sound like Cream. To me its the vocals, the backing vocal harmonies, and the bass that really scream Cream. It's not just me is it?
Well i see what you mean. It would help to have a comparison to one of their songs though. The vocals in Scumbag Blues remind me a little bit of the ones in Strange Brew though. So that could be an example. Interesting comparison.

I love that the channel has started leaning towards guitar lately. I'd like to take you up on your offer if you'd like to chat, platform is your choice.
The only Boris album I got into is "New Album" which is so far removed from this genre lol. Way more dream pop/shoegaze inspired. I respect them for being diverse though
Awesome video! By the way, what do you think of Stoned Jesus? If you haven't heard them already I'd suggest "I'm the mountain", I find the build up in that song particularly amazing, hope you do too?
I wish you would've talked about "Dead Roots Stirring" by Elder. Maybe one of the musically most impressive records in this Top 10 you used for this video. Long really great layered songs with a lot of variations of riffs and sounds. Most bands in this genre stick to 1-3 riffs and the usual song structures in almost every song while these guys have like 5-10 riffs in one song and no typical song structures. Which results in many surprising and great shifts and changes within the songs. Every song tells an epic story. They further explored this on the next record "Lore". This band overall makes epic sounding records. They are something special. When you really get into them you know what I mean. Every record from them sounds different and got it's own magic. Over the years they got the label "Progressive Stoner Metal" because of more and more Prog elements. My favorite record by them is "Reflections Of A Floating World" from 2017. This band inspired a new wave of Stoner bands who are creating more varied sounds than the typical Stoner formula.
Yes, I agree, Elder should get more attention than most the generic tone stoner bands. They have a special magic in their structure and can really inspire you if you play guitar or bass for example just because they break the most used stoner rock structures. I put Elder in the same place like Kyuss who got me into stoner rock and man..those guys were from another planet as Sleep with their generic riffing but a massive tone that destroys the mainstream doom, Colour Haze and Satorinaut who breaked the psychedelic patterns of reality and every Josh Homme and John Garcia procjects. And many more but we don't have enough space here to talk about stoner/doom/psych groove etc. It's a complex genre that destroys every mainstream rock/metal sound and songwriting.
If you're interested in Clutch's progressive side, I urge you to check out Elephant Riders and Robot Hive Exodus. Lots of time signature silliness between those two albums.
Dude, no offense, but, you need to get your facts straight... Monstermagnet did not start back in 98... and listen to the Melvins, man... you're missing out!
I know how to play Stoner Metal on bass. Dragonaut is easy for me just get an passive bass which I use an 1986 Ibanez Roadstar II RB650 bass which is a PJ bass a boss ds1 and boom ride the dragon into the crimson eye.

I highly recomend King Gizzard and the lizard wizard
I've listened to them a fair bit actually. But i'm having a hard time liking their music for some reason. I don't find it that addictive.
Have you listened to Stonefield? If you haven't: it's a stonerrock band from the same label as King Gizz
@@LieLikesMusiclisten to sleep drifter by them!!
@@LieLikesMusic which albums have you tried btw. I would have thought you would be really into them considering the types of music you discuss on YT
They're watered down psych rock
One of my favorites in this genre is a band called Monkey3 with noteworthy songs like ‘through the desert’ and ‘Icarus’. They are largely instrumental and have many songs that are fairly lengthy, but really take u on a journey.
Kewl! Thanks for suggesting these.
Monkey3 is awesome! I never heard of them until I saw them live when I saw Colour Haze in Germany. So stoked to see them mentioned here!
SUNN O))) is pronounced Sun
No it’s pronounced “sun oh” and then you make a little curved parenthesis shape with your left hand and tap it on the left side of your mouth 3 times.

Dusta Rhymes SOOOOOPAAAHH BUUUUUUUGG
Yeah i've listened to some of their stoner/doom stuff. Those guys can jump into any genre on a wim it seems.
There new album is super stoner rock based, Gila monster is straight up sabbath worship lol.
Earth’s “Pentastar” would slide in nicely here.

Blues For The Red Sun was dope, but Welcome to Sky Valley will always be my favorite.
Clutch sounding like Mastodon wasn't lost on Mastodon. Blood and Thunder features vocals from Neil Fallon of Clutch.

I saw Sleep live a few years back it was so freaking loud. I don't like the label Stoner Rock either, since I love it and don't smoke.
That's great. Apparently they played here in Oslo just some days ago. Couldn't afford seeing them tho eheh.
The label, I think, is important because some of the band sound like weed feels, perfectly. Sleep, especially their 1st album, sound exactly like weed
if you like this genre you should give stoned jesus - i'm the mountain
Saw the live
Do one of these for psychedelic rock!
Great analysis btw!
Fu Manchu is pretty good. They throw in a bit of punk with the stoner sound.
And they go back to 85. They used to be in Thrasher magazine (a skater mag) amongst all of the punk bands. Just in mentions and small ads.
They sound lots like Blue Cheer imho!
Fu is the shit! Seen them quite a few times over the years. Always so powerful live… & their guitar sounds are just massive.

Please give Mars Red Sky, Holy Serpent, Dozer and Ruff Majik (they’re from South Africa) a try 🤘🏽
Since when is QOTSA stoner ? Never considered them anything but heavy rock. Maybe some songs could be psychedelic but even thats a stretch. IMO
I don’t consider QOTSA stoner rock.
Monster Magnet actually formed in 1989, not 1998. They were already a national act in the early 90s. (I'm old).
You should definitely listen to Boris' 2005 album "Pink". It's a really energetic and crazy record
I'll see what i can cram into my listening hours. It would definitely be interesting.
