Another slow reply, hehe:

Ok, my bad, they are not thrash, they are more like groovy speed metal when it comes to riffing and drumming (i mean tell me how Hung, Drawn & Quartered and Rumors Of War are stoner metal for example). They have some stoner songs here and there on later releases, but overall, IMHO they are more like modern version of Motorhead (post-speed metal lol).

And a little 'genre nazi' nitpick, even if HoF somehow is a stoner band their later releases cannot be stoner doom ones, since 'stoner doom' is slow stuff with much of distortion such as Warhorse, HoF's debute, Sleep, OM and Electric Wizard. Faster stuff and less lenghty/repetetive stuff, such as Kyuss, Karma To Burn, Solace, Church Of Misery is simply called 'stoner metal' or sometimes 'stoner/doom.'

My Sludge list, gonna name off the top of my head, so if you're looking for Sludge pick some and find albums, heh.

That helps a lot man, I've been wanting to dig deeper in the sludge scene.

Good, I enjoy helping with people getting into new music.

That's indeed an excellent list of Sludge bands. You got most of my favorites on there.

I gave up years ago, I got sick of recommending my favourite bands and the person I recommended them to couldn't grasp the concept of Death Metal, Black Metal etc.....sad really.

^ Yeah, outside of the internet I pretty much never mention music. Mainly because everyone listens too whats popular or Melodic-Metalcore thats shitty.

Same here, I get this look of disgust when someone asks me wha I listen to, or if it's not a look of pure disgust its just this absolute look of uncomprehension. I have been asked when I have told people that I listen to death metal, "so you listen to bands like Linkin Park then?" "No, no I fucking don't".

My neighbors must hate me. They listen to my music 7 days a week.

I like how you put it, I have the best wife in the world, she hate my music and she never complains, becasue when I am at home I always have music on, always. She never asks me to turn it down.

She does love a good dose of Sabbath though.

That's awesome.

man, I hope so too. so far I haven't met a girl that can stand my music.

hahahah they are fucking rare.

Can't say I've met a girl that can either. Hell, I've never met ANY human that can, haha.

I don't know a single person that listens to as much metal as I do, I almost breathe Metaliic goodness.

lol, you just must not know many people that like metal.

Me.

I'm the metal guru of my school, though in terms of rabid metalheads I'm probably lower on the spectrum. Still have tons of bands I need to check out.
