Stoner/Desert Rock and Metal
Per a devious request... post that sh!t here.
I'll start with a song/band I've been pretty obsessed with lately. |
How this band didn't make it I will never know :(
|
Full album now on youtube as of yesterday, makes you want a fleet of motorcycles and a fifth of whiskey. Blowing Electric Wizard's new one out of the water.
http://newnoisemagazine.com/wp-conte...byss-cover.jpg Also finally listened to Earth's new one, and it's mindblowingly ****ing fantastic. Plus cool ass cover art. http://echoesanddust.com/wp-content/...ly-Artwork.jpg |

Ancestors for me lately. First Light from In Dreams & Time may be my favourite track in the entire genre.
|
Cant really believe how this thread has so few answers. Just made my account now to start bumping this, i hope.
Well, since is my nowadays favorite types of metal, i would add: Kyuss (ofc) Hermano Rainbows Are Free Been Obscene Valley of The Sun Sasquatch Year Long Disaster Kadavar Stubb Slo Burn The Kings of Frog Island Radar Men From The Moon Baroness Stoned Jesus Vista Chino Colour Haze Brain Police Dead Meadow Witch Roadsaw Red Octopus Black Pistol Fire My Sleeping Karma The Black Angels But really gotta dig up Earthless (already mentioned in this thread) and Black Bombaim. Earthless is by far the best, imo. My list includes many different genres, from psychedelic rock to stoner, and i believe most of the bands you already know. Anyway, glad if i can bring something new and contribute to make this thread longer! |
I really like southern style stoner metal more than the traditional style from bands like Sleep or Electric Wizard. Bands like Weedeater and Bongzilla or Mountain Goat are good examples which I can't link quite yet.
|
I enjoy Kyuss and qotsa, but I need to go deeper into the genre.

Acid King is among the heaviest bands I've heard in all of metal. They're close to death/doom, Coffins-level heaviness, but they got that psychedelic feel too. Just imagine Jimi Hendrix playing "Machine Gun" only at sludge and drone-ish, slow doom tempos and with 4x as much distortion.
Anyway, Busse Woods is a must have, though their early EPs are worth checking out too: I keep editing this, but I wanted to add "Tank," because that one is monstrous. |
this thread needs a major bump.
wheres the Truckfighters. Dozer. Clutch. Greenleaf. Warchief. Churchhouse Creepers. Egypt. All them Witches. Child. if youre looking for more stoner rock. Stoned Meadow of Doom or Stoned Ravenous Fuzz on the utube. Smod is very active posting new music. many new bands out there. especially in this style of rock. |
Palm Desert. Spaceslug. Spaztik Munkey. Instant Boner. Dope Smoker. Wo Fat. Sasquatch.
|
A commercial sound but still a great track:

this Palm Desert album is amazing desert rock, very rare in my opinion. #6,4,9,2,1 are the top end of this album to me |

a top end desert rock tune imo. and killer fan made video |
I'll be damned if Radiant Moon by Watchtower doesn't hit the spot.
Heavy Planet : EP Review: Radiant Moon by WATCHTOWER |
I just saw these guys open for Earthless. One of the few occasions when the opening act turned out to be every bit as good as the headliner.
Elder "Compendium" LIVE in PDX |
Greek band Tuber does a pretty good job of capturing that "desert" sound, in my opinion. Their album Desert Overcrowded is pretty solid. First track (title track) is what I recommend
|
I haven't really gone through the genre. I only know a few. The bands I am more interested in are Nebula, Radio Moscow, Wo Fat and Truckfighter.
Nebula - Carpe Diem (Official Video) Radio Moscow - I Just Don't Know Wo Fat - "Beggar's Bargain" Truckfighters - Desert Cruiser |
ive seen Elder pushed by a guy on a utube discussion recently. will have to check out the hype.
if you want to really experience truckfighters, Manhattan Project and Gweedo Weedo are the tracks to get into off that album. |
|
I got to see them live. Obvious comparison to make to Ali Farka Toure.
Good stuff. |

This is the first song I've heard by them so far... Lots of heavy fuzz going on there! I'll have to give the rest of the album a listen. |
