The Metal Thread [ARCHIVED} Genre • Page 210

One of my favorites from last year. Of course Prayer For Cleansing is an all timer for me. Love that sound.

 

Damnit why this gotta be in MN the same night as kamelot. Wish i could do both shows. Quick, someone perfect cloning.

 

Anyone really into sludge here? I’m finding a lot of it interesting in theory but otherwise hard to get into i.e. Eyehategod, Dystopia. Like I implied, I love Crowbar but I think it’s rooted enough in doom to make it more palatable

 

baroness and mastodon are the easiest sludge bands to get into if you haven't tried their earlier works before they incorporated sonter and prog respectively

 

Also Down which features jimmy from crowbar and eyehategod

 

High on fire was also super easy for me to get into, and then there's torche which is basically pop sludge

 

i am very into it, yes. listen to kowloon walled city.

 

Haven't listened to this band since 2012. Couldn't get into them then, but my taste was not like it is now. Gonna give Container Ships a listem now, thanks

 

grievances is better but yeah, those two rule

 

grievances is one of my favorite albums

 

Hah so I should’ve worded my post a little better. I listen to enjoy all the bands you mentioned. I guess I’m talking about the more crusty, nihilistic end of sludge. Down definitely trends that way for sure.

Pat I will check out Kowloon, thanks

 

Thinking about going to see Eyehategod and CroMags next weekend. Not really familiar with either band but now seems like a good time to make myself familiar.

 

@cherrywaves check this out

 

also if you haven't listened to thou check them out they're super sludgy and doomy but they're pretty popular so you've probably heard them

 

Hell yeah loving the Kowloon Walled City praise. Such a cool band.


The Pressure Keeps Me Going was probably played over 20 times by me when I first heard it.

 

We couldn't do any better than Code Orange?

At least John from Baroness is in PA

 

Oh Gina is too! So half of Baroness lives in PA

 

Wait who the dicks are Today Is The Day.

No joke never heard that name before in my life.

 

Ya, Heathen is sick

 

Have you explored their back catalog? Their other albums and Algiers the compilation album are just as good

 

Shoulda been Horrendous, sick death metal band I've gotten into recently from Philly

 

I have not. Never being able to listen to every good artist’s back catalog is a curse of living. I will at least listen to their most recent at some point

 

Same lol today I just realized Mammoth Grinder has a couple more records other than the one that just dropped and I'm getting side tracked of listening to a bunch of new bands diving back into them now haha

 

Some good picks( Pallbearer, Visigoth, Converge, Slipknot).

Some I can’t tell with the text which is the norm for the genre lol
