Various: Weedian - Trip To Greece 2021

 

Weedian is a website composed in 2016. Named for a classic line in Dopesmoker by Sleep and eliciting the catchphrase of "Slow Riffs Bong Hits", Weedian is a news page that shares tour dates and

anniversaries of various bands in the world of stoner and doom. Along with news the page often shares humorous memes related to bands in that circle, often in relation to Sleep or their associated acts. Weedian would also compose a YouTube channel in February 2020, sharing rarities in stoner and doom.
Weedian released more than 15 Trip compilations series in 2021 via bandcamp and youtube reached to more than 1 Million Views!!!!
                    

An old boss of mine once told me they hired me because “the laziest people often find the easiest ways

to do things”, and though I never picked him up on the irony of trying to pass a common adage off as his own wisdom whilst slyly hinting that I was liable to cut corners, I nevertheless took it as a compliment. A touch of laziness can be a virtue. It can help you prioritise, it can keep you from being stressed and it can occasionally help in creative endeavours.
                        

After all, there’s no one lazier than a stoner (that is, if we’re to assume all stoners are exactly as depicted in films) and yet stoner metal is one of the most long-lasting and reliable genres going. On

paper the genre thrives off the hallmarks of being lazy. Riffs are repeated, the tempos are sluggish. Where punk told the world that anyone could be a musician, just play fast and with aggression to cover the mistakes, stoner rock and doom told us that anyone could be a musician, just tune low and play slow to let the spaces breath. No one takes this mantra quite as seriously as bona fide legends of the genre, Sleep.
                 

Sleep is an American stoner/doom metal band from San Jose, California. Guitarist Matt Pike and

bassist and vocalist Al Cisneros have been the only constant members throughout the band's history. Critic Eduardo Rivadavia describes them as "perhaps the ultimate stoner rock band" and notes they exerted a strong influence on metal in the 1990s.
                     

Matt Pike: "Weedian was started because I love music and most especially underground music. I wanted a way to be able to find and share cool bands with people who had the same taste in music that I do.

"So after a lot of thinking and some talking, I’ve decided to make a compilation of songs from some of my favorite bands, and Blues Funeral Recordings was cool enough to partner up with me to help bring it to you.
TRIP TO GREECE includes the best of the Greek Stoner underground scene. 44 Tracks of hand-picked heavy and stoner Rock. Enjoy!!!
