Stoner metal or sludge metal is a type of heavy metal music which arose in the 1990s. Sludge metal has more connections with grindcore and hardcore punk.

There are similarities to doom metal, but some fans consider the two genres distinct. 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
