Sludge, stoner, doom - where is the profit in seperating these genres out? Why not simply call them "Doom"? It describes both the tone and the tempo, and is inclusive of both the rock and metal ends of the spectrum.

As for High on Fire I`ll agree they are faster than I thought with a heavy Motorhead influence and touches of Slayer. But they do have a sluggish heavy Kyuss type sound as well which underpins everything. For that reason I`d still classify them as a stoner metal band with a faster sound. The drumming is about as intense as that of say Mastodon

Or we could just say High on Fire is what hard rock sounds like 20 years after Motorhead, Metallica, Black Sabbath (etc.) have become radio mainstays.

Do you guys think anything by Korn or Rage Against The Machine is worth buying?

Buying? Absolutely not. Pirate if you want, but I would not recommend buying anything from these guys. They've made fistfulls of cash anyways, and the music isn't all that memorable.
