Sludge Metal

as know as doom or stoner metal. imagine slinking through dense pools of electrically charged sludge; or put yourself in that years-old pot-smoked-out haze as you slide deeper into the electrically charged couch. that's the time signature we're dealing with here -- a pleasant blend of the lethargic and the 'lectric. these guys bow before black sabbath.

southern fried metal

close close cousin of sludge, etc. with a penchant for working class lyrics, down home riffs, and much much resin to slow the rock.
