"Stoner whatever" is a mix of psychedelic rock, hard rock and blues rock and doom metal. Also has some kind of southern rock to it.
The word Stoner is a slang term for someone who smokes weed.
erm... NWOBHM stands for New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Black Sabbath were the first real heavy metal band - how can they be new wave? NWOBHM was early 80s metal (Iron Maiden, Saxon etc)
And pretty much all types of Doom Metal are inspired by Black Sabbath. Doom is metal played slow and intense, like Sabbath. Stoner is the more grungy, psychedelic form - epic is more operatic, sludge more punky, death doom has similarities with both death metal and goth, and funeral doom is so extremely slow that it's really a kind of extreme or experimental metal.
But they're all inspired by Sabbath
