So the great people at the StonerRock.com forums have been creating compilations of bands on their site for almost a decade now. These free releases are by dozens of bands of all the sub-genres of the sub-genre of stoner metal. Some bands are downright amazing, some are complete shit, and some of the song qualities are really poor as well. But the fascinating thing is that some of the names on these compilations are bands that I know and love now. For these bands, some of the songs are demo or early versions that made it on albums, or they are completely new tracks for their listening public. It's a nice way to see how your favorite band has progressed over the last ten years. I'm willing to bet that most of these groups are still together making music, and who knows, maybe in a year or two you'll see a name pop up on some tour, a name you learned from these collections.
There is album work for all these - fan created - but they are all massive files. You can see them at the StonerRock.org site if you truly want them.
