Time Travelling Blues is my favourite one. They're a great band. No B.S, just straight forward, loud stoner rock with no frills.

I've seen them as well and they were great. They have members or ex members of Sabbat and Iron Monkey too.

Iv said this before but if you enjoy OG you really should check out Colour Haze. They have a wealth of great albums, all of which are a bit different from the next. If your into long instrumental jams that go from ambient rock to near heavy metal and everything inbetween, then you will thank me. If not, well they are probably not your cup of tea.

That's one stoner band I've been wanting to check out. Can you make any album recommendations?

Saw Colour Haze last night, they came on stage at around 1am and played for 2 hours, this was the first time that i have seen them live and being a big fan i was not disapointed they were fantastic a very talanted group who produce an amazingly tight sound for 3 people.
They were supported by a band called Bushfire, who were excellent sounded a bit like Monster Magnet does anyone know anything about Bushfire?
The concert was an event organised by Karlsruhe uni (Germany) called the Generator Stoner Festival. A nice small event (about 300 people) hopefully it will get bigger!

'Tempel' is the album i would recommend from Colour Haze, the new album 'All' is also excellent i would also recomend the self titled album.

Someone might already have mentioned them, but High On Fire and Monster Magnet are incredible. It's hard to go wrong with them. Reiterating what others have said, Kyuss, QOTSA, and Sleep are essential stoner bands. Electric Wizard is excellent stoner metal, of the slow and doomy variety. I don't think I've seen Sixty Watt Shaman mentioned, but they were good. They only had a couple of albums.

If the original poster likes stoner rock, he'd probably like doom. I recommend the excellent Reverend Bizarre.

I made my mom listen to the Gorillaz's Demon Days and told me it was stoner music...I thought that was hilarious.
