{ Top 12 stoner rock bands }

This is my list of the top 12 stoner rock bands off the top of my head, even though I like way more than just 12 of them. Also, these are bands that I think the stoner-rock/metal/sludge/southern/doom novice would be wise in listening to so they could get a feel of what this genre is all about. I am straight-edge but I listen to stoner-rock. It's ironic and we'll leave it at that. In no particular order, here they are:

1. Sunn O)))
2. Weedeater
3. Rwake (pronounced 'wake')
4. Bongzilla
5. Sleep
6. Om
7. Dove
8. Floor
9. Eyehategod
10. Melvins
11. Lesbian
12. Buried at Sea
