The Great Stoner Rock Thread

[Sonusthree]

Hi there

Anything by The Orb. Start with Little fluffy clouds and then drift the night away!😀

Nothing rock about that!! Still a classic though. I actually bought the video. It was just just a montage of multicoloured and spinning Battersea power stations.
There is a tenuous link to stoner rock though:

"Rock band Pink Floyd successfully made world headlines as they floated a helium filled Pig effigy between the chimneys. The Pig "escaped" causing maximum exposure for the escapade, thus ensuring everlasting notoriety for the Pig, Band, and our beloved Power Station."

Have a nice trip,

for me its deep purple
i never listen to them only when i am stoned
many speakers were sent to speaker heaven with deep purple or black sabbath...or saxon...or led zeppelin..

For me Stoner Rock is many things (not that I'm ever stoned, but just like to "relax" to good rock music at 120 dB) 😀

It all depends on the mood.... ;
Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Gun's and Roses, Velvet Revolver, Ritchie Blackmore, Black Sabbath Uriah Heep, Stiff Little Fingers and Judas priest etc. are all parts of the list, but sometimes I just "stone" to Dire Straits, Mike Oldfield, Jean Michel Jarre, Pink Floyd and others with "smooooooth" sound 😉

Aphrodities Child - "666".
"Focus 3" by Focus - my favourite album ever (got to love the crap 70's production quality).
Hawkwind - "Choose your Masks", the first album I bought and the first concert I went to. Changed me for ever.
Anything by Gong and their offshoot Here and Now.

Those were the days
🙂


O - I almost forgot;
"My Life In a Bush of Ghosts" by Brian Eno and David Burns. Had my first real stoner experience with that one.
"An American Prayer" - a postumous album by the Doors.

Here's a nice site http://www.stonerrock.com/
Seems to me people are a little confused (stoned ) about the genre.

Here's today's mp3 of the day: http://www.stonerrock.com/jukebox/Robot_Lords_of_Tokyo-Off_to_War.mp3

enjoy 🙂

There is a new Genre of music called Stoner and it is called Doom also. This band is called Sleep.

YouTube - Sleep - Dragonaut

I wonder if these guys have ever heard any early Black Sabbath.

There is a band here in DFW called Solitude that plays Doom/Stoner music

When I am stoned, I enjoy Electric Wizard.
