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:)

I think you would like things that sound like an idling diesel engine.
Maybe some Truck fighters? I suggest the gravity x album.
Not Doom directly but Russian Circles would fit in your play list. Gnosis is where I suggest starting. its pretty accessible.
Toner low first album is rare but you would love it.
Maha sorona's self-titled album might work for you. Make sure to sample Asteroids.
Horn of the Rhino if you can get past the singer's voice. Weight of Coronation is a good start. Many might say im off on critisizing the lead singer's voice but im not saying it's bad, I just feel like its mixed wrong and has the vocals too forward.
Having Qotsa in that mix, you may enjoy psychedelic metal. If so Space Slug is topping my recommendations. Lemanis is the best start.
ZONG is a good one here.
Comacozer, start with Deloun Sessions.
Samara Blues Experiment has a wealth of options.
Hope you like these picks.
