What I meant was that Kyuss aren't, to me, as noisy (dissonant, harsh production, etc) as the bands on the poll but concentrate more on the riff and the groove, as stoner bands do. 

Okay, thanks for that explanation. I must admit, I don't know so much about these stylistic terms and distinctions.

Good album that one. I think they're more stoner than noise in their rock, but of course those styles overlap. 

Yes, it's definitely Stoner, and I didn't really realise that your "noisy" was meant as genre term, which by the way is a good example of that imo it's best to write genre names beginning with capital letter because it diminish misunderstandings. Smile

even it's more Metal influenced - though like TAD

Flipper are great fun! Thanks for bringing them up. 

I think Shellac definitely have a connection to math and post rock, but much less so to trad prog.

I might say so, as well.

I think you are right. One day I'll put up a Sonic Youth album poll.

Bauhaus are excellent. Haven't heard Before but will check 'em out.

I saw Sonic Youth in Kilburn in 1989 and they were terrible.

Sonic Youth for me.
