Another point for doom/stoner metal: Samsara Blues Experiment got me through my OS class in college. It's pretty easy to get into too since a most albums are uploaded in full as single videos to youtube. Just beware that one of the big channels uploading videos, Stoned Meadow of Doom, is questionable at best in the scene since operates on a pay-to-play basis.
Otherwise, if you don't mind some harsh vocals I also recommend atmospheric black metal, as well as drone metal. Caladan Brood, Saor, Eldamar, Sunn O))), and Summoning are some of my faves.
- maicro 4y agoCould you clarify that note about Stoned Meadow of Doom? I mentioned them in my sibling comment - I'm not affiliated, have just been enjoying the channel off-and-on for years, so I'm curious.
- stryan 4y agoRiffpedia has a better article[0] then I could write, but the TL;DR is SMoD used to try to do DMCA takedowns against over stoner metal Youtube channels, as well as running a pay-to-play (as in, the bands pay to play) festival for a couple years. The latter being the bigger issue from what I've heard; stoner metal ain't exactly a well paying genre to begin with, the fact the SMoD basically makes money off uploading other peoples albums (he keeps all the ad revenue) and then makes bands pay to play in his festival was widely seen as a "dick move".
