Sludge

Sludge metal generally combines the slow tempos, heavy rhythms and dark, pessimistic atmosphere of doom metal with the aggression, shouted vocals and occasional fast tempos of hardcore punk. As The New York Times put it, “The shorthand term for the kind of rock descending from early Black Sabbath and late Black Flag is sludge, because it’s so slow and dense”.

    hello internet. i hate to be a self-promoting whore, but necessity dictates that unless i get off my ass and tell people about things i do, no one really will, so here i am. i would just like to inform you guys about this cover of helmet's "in the meantime" i did which i feel meets the criteria of "sludge". consider it a response to that shitty soulfly cover which just made me want to puke when i heard it. i feel no qualms with calling it "better than soulfly" in that regard. so anyway, here it is. listen to it if that is your proclivity. if not, thank you for your time in reading this message. http://theswine.bandcamp.com/track/in-the-meantime
