Revision as of 13:19, 7 October 2004
Stoner Metal and Sludge Metal are often used interchangably, but some fans make distictions: Sludge metal has more connections with grindcore and hardcore punk. There also are similarities to doom metal, but most aficionados consider the two genres distinct. Other terms, which also indicate slightly different genres of music are 'stoner rock', 'desert rock' and the very abstract 'desert music', which usually has only very little 'metal' content as such.
Stoner metal bands play a mix of jam-heavy psychedelic rock laced with some doom metal like riffs and are generally more closely linked to the heavy psychedelic bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Monster Magnet and Kyuss were among the most popular practitioners. Others include:
- The Atomic Bitchwax
- Fatso Jetson
- Fu Manchu
- Kyuss
- Mannhai
- Masters of Reality
- Monster Magnet
- Natas
- Nebula
- Orange Goblin
- Pawnshop
- Queens of the Stone Age
- Roadsaw
- Sixty Watt Shaman
- Sleep
- Slo Burn
- Spirit Caravan
