Meanings
- uncountableentertainmentA subgenre of heavy metal which combines it with elements of psychedelic rock and acid rock.
As with psychedelia, the literary links of stoner rock are not its dominant features, especially insofar as many bands distance themselves from the broadly understood mainstream, which connotes forms of elitism and canonization.
