I admit to not being up on the stoner/doom/heavy psych rock genres, but if it needs any of the sound I imagine then it's gotta be the Hammond. Nothing screams DOOM or STONER or PSYCH like it.

To me, stoner rock, like heavy metal, doom metal, thrash, etc. is built around heavily distorted "crunch" guitar.

A full blown rhythm section is a must, add two guitars doing power chords and fills.

Then add a vocalist with a killer set of pipes and an attitude that can keep up with the band I just described.

That describes Kyuss.

Sludgey bass and muffled drums. I don't really have much in the way of Stoner, but I think the Architectural Metaphor album I have fits the bill quite nicely.

I take it that you don't party much.

But if I'm wrong, then take a trip with these two psych/tech metal journeys:

Re-traced. Carbon Based Anatomy.

And obtain some bliss!
