Southern Lord is an American record label, founded in 1998 by Greg Anderson and Stephen O’Malley, specializing in doom, sludge, drone and experimental metal. The label name is not a reference to Satan and has no meaning, it just seemed to sound cool to Greg Anderson. They are the home of influential and widely praised bands like Earth, Pentagram, Goatsnake, Boris, Khanate, and Sunn O))), among others. In recent years, the label has expanded their repertoire to include projects from the more abstract side of the black metal genre, including releases by Twilight, Lurker of Chalice, Craft, Nortt, and Striborg. Stephen O’Malley creates roughly 90% of the label’s artwork.

This is a list of the artists who released via Southern Lord Records.

    Oh fuck yeah, I'd love to see a Sleep album get the SL treatment.

    Also, they should re-sign OM so we can get some A-grade distribution, promotion, touring and merchandise going on. Either that or sign Sleep for an album, live or otherwise.

    I have given Southern Lord a lot of my money over the past few years. CDs, iTunes Store MP3s, LPs and shirts aplenty. A quality label that releases quality music. Maximum quality yields maximum PROFIT!

    Does someone know if the SouthernLord' (especially the Earth') T-shirts are rather big or rather small ? My normal size is L, but alst time i bought metal t-shirts, the L size was like an XL size... MAXIMUM T-SHIRT'S SIZE YIELDS MAXIMUM RESULTS ... hum, not really.
