Stoner metal

Stoner metal is a type of heavy metal music which arose in the 1990s. Some newcomers to underground music tend to confuse it with true doom metal. Stoner metal bands play a mix of jam-heavy psychedelic rock laced with some doom metal like riffs. More closely linked to the heavy psychedelic bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Monster Magnet and Kyuss were among the most popular practitioners.
