Can, Spacemen 3, Galaxie 500, Animal Collective, Yo La Tengo, Slowdive, Bowery Electric, Stars of the Lid, Labradford, Windy & Carl

These bands tend to be what I most regularly listen to when i'm high. However it can be anything really ...

I can't read high ... unless it's one word over and over ... usually when high anymore I just listen to the sounds around my apartment, or in my brain ... but sometimes I do well with Coltrane or some very spaced out gnarly electric guitar things (Royal Trux, Jimi Hendrix, Six Organs Of Admittance)

Oh yeah, Six Organs of Admittance is one of my favourites to listen to when I'm smoking too. Nice call!

usually its just putting the Zune on Shuffle.... but that leads to a whole session of someone sitting over the skip button....

Pretty much any music that I can listen to anytime.... is good music when smoking. Maybe some thrash metal or some really bad pop music, would be the worst for me. I dont really know.

My favs I guess would be
Collie Buddz- Self Titled Album

The movement (Kind of a Regional band)

Lately a lot of Citizen Cope....

Besides that that
Sublime
Radiohead
Portishead
Bob Dylan
Slightly Stoopid
Expendables
The list pretty much is anything, kinda why usually we just put the IPOD or Zune on Random.

Murky Chronic + Bach = Crying like a bitch

anything that is Funky, especially Funk!

a lot of experimental stuff, especially ones that do a lot of crazy sampling (like Dosh or Coil).

theres plenty of Jazz Fusion that is amazing high and really trippy (like Medeski, Martin & Wood)

Reggae of course. A fair amount of Ska can fall in here as well.

Anything by "Nightmares On Wax" would be more than fitting. I've always found the first "Crosby Stills & Nash" album to be a great listen when i kick back and chill out.

Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here works wonders (sorry stereotypes!). I also really like Portishead's Dummy and Animal Collective's 'Sung Tongs'.
