[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Free jazz while stoned is unbelieveable. Stuff actually makes sense then. :lol:

Coma Divine by Porcupine Tree might as well be the stoner theme album.

[Concubine]

ugh... stoner rock?

I've never been stoned before, so i guess i wouldn't know

[Kage]

Free jazz while stoned is unbelieveable. Stuff actually makes sense then. :lol:


Shiiiiiit that sounds awesome.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I was in jazz history class, and the lesson was on Coltrane. I had listened to A Love Supreme before, but I'd never actually immersed myself in it. After that day, the album has been one of my favorite jazz albums, haha.

I know it's not the free-est example, but it was the episode that I remember the most.

[Txus]

I'd listen to Astronome while stoned...that would be scary/awesome.

[FatalEnergy]

Boris or Sunn 0)))

I'd listen to Astronome while stoned...that would be scary/awesome.

[CrossTheBreeze]

[the2stranger]

Bongzilla
Sleep

[superpeer]

Boards of Canada
Ulver
DJ Shadow

[the2stranger]

Ulver's a good one Jelle.
I totally agree.

[superpeer]

The electronica Ulver, though.

[Username++]

I used to get high and listen to music. But after smoking everyday for almost 2 years straight has made the combination not that amazing anymore.

[Meatplow]

i got stoned and listened to slayer one night while i was staying somewhere with nothing to do. it was like a bolt of grey electric lightning running through my head and i was terrified. I listened to Faith No More as well, (at that time i was a massive fan) and couldn't believe how insane it was.

Prodigy's first album brought images that were alarmingly similar to mid 90s windows screensavers into my head. It sounds so blippy and digital. Then i listened to Fat of The Land and the difference in imagery was amazing.

I don't get stoned as a general rule that i freak out and get paranoid about reality unless i have music to listen to.

[r8guitarist]

Sparta stoned while using headphones can be pretty ****ing trippy.

[the2stranger]

The electronica Ulver, though.

True.
Even though Nattens Madrigal wouldn't be too bad either.

Boards of Canada are brilliant.

[-Listy-]

/hasnt since saturday..will change at the weekend though.

I really need to get my hands on some and just have a total chilled out day sometime with a lil Boards of Canada and Ozric Tentacles.

Oh and i've just gotten back into Nick Drake, man that guy can paint pictures in my mind. River man just transports me somewhere else :p.

When I go to my friends house to get high and go into town they insist on playing **** like Enter Shikari and Atreyu..whats the point.

[TojesDolan]

I think obviously old school Floyd... and probably Amit's 400 GUITARS and uh... Al Di Meola, any form.

[superpeer]

Yeah, Nick Drake is good.

Fu Manchu when being played REALLY loud.

[-Listy-]

their cover of Godzilla is brilliant, its so slow paced and kicks ***.

[Elliptical Ion]

I'm listening to The Action is Go right now.

[TojesDolan]

Probably Elliott Smith.

[Volumnius Flush]

I think Traffic would be a good choice.

[Kurrpt]

Cream
Jethro Tull

[-Listy-]

I think Traffic would be a good choice.

I was just listening to them.

'Dear mr faaaantasy'

[Bron-Yr-Aur]

Neutral Milk Hotel
The Catalinas

Ratatat
Bob Dylan
The Frankl Project
The Zombies

[naboo]

Any flamenco

[Kage]

Electric Wizard

Nice.

[Quiksilver26]

I just listened to Paco De Lucia the other day after smoking a couple bowls to myself. Holy ****.

Really though, any band you enjoy sober will be fun times while high.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Not true. I typically dislike listening to post rock...Isis is so boring stoned. Kayo Dot on the other hand, is amazing, but for entirely different reasons.

[Danger Bird]

Punk music has never been that amazing for me while stoned.

Surf rock is just incredible.

[AA-12]

Really though, any band you enjoy sober will be fun times while high.

Hardly.

[BassMasterMike88]

Neutral Milk Hotel
The Catalinas
Sublime
Ratatat
Bob Dylan
The Frankl Project
The Zombies


That pretty much sums up what I was going to say, except for Monster Magnet.

[Apocalypticon]

Agalloch

Agalloch suck stoned.

[Txus]

Yeah, Agalloch stoned is no fun.

[Apocalypticon]

Anything long and repetative with harsh vocals usually isn't good stoned. Opeth, Empyrium, Agalloch, Burzum, Primordial etc. for example.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Minimalist bands like Agalloch are no fun high because the beauty lies in discovering new things within the music. Not to say bands like that aren't good, but they're just not good stoner music.

[Shattered_Future]

I don't get high (got no reason to), but I've always assumed Ozric Tentacles would make you trip out like no other.

[Txus]

Yaaaah! I've trip with Jurassic Shift about 10 times...fantastic.

[TheDarkHorse]

nah

[suspect]

When I listen to Agalloch high, it isn't to discover new things, it is to experience a certain emotion and to be carried away in the music. I put on the Mantle because it takes me on a musical journey where I can envision something which I enjoy, cheesy as it may sound : ).

[DonBass]

portishead

[Interviewer/surveyer]

Origin

[-Listy-]

Anything long and repetative with harsh vocals usually isn't good stoned. Opeth, Empyrium, Agalloch, Burzum, Primordial etc. for example.

some Opeth would be ok, like the Damnation album.

Or some of the instrumental stuff, although there isnt alot.

[i am the robots]

You guys don't know what you're talking about, metal is perfect when you're high.

Gothenburg style stuff specifically,
In Flames - Jester Race
At The Gates - Slaughter Of The Soul
Dark Tranquillity - Character
Light This City - Facing The Thousand
Through The Eyes Of The Dead - Scars Of Ages
Darkest Hour - Undoing Ruin

All amazing stoned.

Also,
Between The Buried And Me - any of their albums
Opeth - any of their albums
Envy - any of their albums
Orchid - any of their albums
Amanda Woodward - any of their albums

Yep.

[naboo]

Sometimes black metal freaks me out when I'm stoned. I listened to The Work Which Transforms God once very late, in the dark, as I was stoned. I got scared.

It's either that, or I just can't take it seriously at all.

[i am the robots]

Yeah, that's how black metal normally is. Blut Aus Nord does a very good job at creating an eerie atmosphere (my favorite BM band)... then there's Mayhem and the likes.

Ha, one time some friends and I smoked in a forest and I had brought the Mantle along to listen to for the first time. We were walking back to the car and I fell back and listened to all of In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion for the first time. It was awesome. My friends were all really surprised that after 15 minutes of listening I'd only gotten through one song.

But I'll usually throw on some Al Di Meola or Billy Cobham or something.

Yeah, I love them when I'm sober, but sometimes it's just a little too much in an altered state. My non-metal friends have described that album as sounding like hell or torture... I love it!

Yep.

I'll give you Envy and Orchid for sure.

I didn't read this thread, but...


YNDI HALDA. Yndi fricken Halda. Seriously, must I mention them in every thread like this? You guys know by now...

/was stoned and listened to yndi halda last night

[AA-12]

Listening to 99% of metal while stoned is absolutely retarded in my opinion, mainly stuff like black metal and folk metal.

[i am the robots]

Well Josh, your opinion fails, straight edge boy.

[AA-12]

Seriously, metal=high is one of the dumbest things I can think of.

[ATM]

Not really :-x

Listening to something really heavy while driving stoned is fun.

[i am the robots]

Heaviness normally exhudes lots of atmosphere, which is good when high.

[naboo]

Seriously, metal=high is one of the dumbest things I can think of.

That is wrong on so many levels ha. Metal stoned is awesome. But like I said on the previous page, black metal is very very hard to take seriously when high. Other than that though it's right up there with jazz fusion,flamenco, and psychedelic music for the best genres to listen to stoned.

I write some of my most emotional, epic, and best songs when I'm stoned. I'll be done with the album in a month or so to prove it.

[AA-12]

I just can't agree. It seems illogical to me on most grounds. The only metal I could ever understand listening to high is like Electric Wizard and etc

[-Listy-]

I forgot to mention Cathedral earlier, great band.

download 'Hopkins the witchfinder general' and get ready to rooooock.

[Berner]

I just can't agree. It seems illogical to me on most grounds. The only metal I could ever understand listening to high is like Electric Wizard and etc
I actually can understand growled lyrics better when I am stoned. I think it's because I totally immerse myself in the music and nothing else around me. That being said, bands I like when stoned:

-Gojira
-Lamb of God (their live DVD with 7.1 surround, Chris Adler's drums will blow your mind)
-The Faceless

[AA-12]

I can generally understand them anyway, meh.

[Berner]

I can generally understand them anyway, meh.

No I can too, but I am talking about the bands where it's really hard to understand them.

[AA-12]

I'm just being an asshole, sorry, heh.

If I get high and can write out every lyric of None So Vile i'll give you $100 :p

[Berner]

I'm just being an spatula, sorry, heh.

If I get high and can write out every lyric of None So Vile i'll give you $100 :pI've seen them live twice and I maintain he is not actually singing anything.

[AA-12]

He pretty much is just in the band for being extremely metal and looking a bit crazy.
