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.

Slowbirth is a Finnish heavy grooved band and was founded in 2009. Songs are often slow and sludgy, melodic, even beautiful (though most of the time in a nasty sort of way). But once that passes it turns around and a full bloom, raw rock and roll truck rams by. Here you can listen new demo songs http://www.myspace.com/slowbirth This video is from first gig in Finland 24.9.2011, band performed with Truckfighters. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5wqlH8cYQU

Stoner metal is a lot more bluesy than most other metal genres: HELL YES!

@ DeathxBringer, sorry to hear you can't appreciate this music sober. Not that I'm denying it's fuckin awesome smoking to it, but I don't think you really appreciate it fully if you can't appreciate it sober too. The thing is about some of these bands, take Electric Wizard for example, theyre so fucking heavy you just /feel/ high listening to them... that grimey sludgey, crunchy sound. Also fuck the stoner "scene", sorry guys.
