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.

Also finally listened to Earth's new one, and it's mindblowingly ****ing fantastic. Plus cool ass cover art.

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.
