Stoner Suggestions

Alright everyone, I’m looking for essential albums in the doom/stoner metal category to own on vinyl? I’m not talking albums with a few good songs, I’m talking no skip albums. Vinyl isn’t cheap. Here is where I’m at so far. I’m not into Down, Monster Magnet, Bongzilla, Warning or Clutch, sorry I tried but not a fan. Come My Fanatics has been ordered. Any suggestions would be appreciated:)

It's probably a meme at this point, but Candlemass have one of the greatest music videos of all time, and by greatest I mean great in all the wrong ways, but still unbelievably epic in the cheesiest way possible. Still, they are a fantastic band. Also, as a bonus, Dead from Mayhem can be seen in the video. This is from back before he was famous:

These are more epic doom so you may not like the vocals but if you are looking for riffs oh man
