Stoner Metal

Stoner Rock and Stoner Metal are terms describing sub-genres of rock and metal music. They are typically slow-to-mid tempo, low-tuned, and bass-heavy, incorporating elements of psychedelic rock, blues-rock and doom metal into a more repetitive and riff-centred style. Other common traits include melodic vocals and ‘retro’ production. The genres emerged during the early 1990s and were pioneered foremost by the Californian bands Kyuss and Sleep.

A lot of doom bands get labeled as stoner because they are stoner bands. The two genres are very closely tied. They both have heavy Sabbath influence. Some bands happen to fit into both categories.
