eyehategod rules all.

carolina sludge is the best though, as those bands have lots of punk influences (for the most part anyways). corrosion of conformity, weedeater (listened to god luck and goddspeed earlier, brutal), antiseen (pushing the term 'sludge', but they got that grimey southern brutal edge), buzzov*en, etc..

sludge is indeed very very awesome, combining hardcore with doom metal was a fucking brilliant idea.

other greats:
dystopia
grief
acid bath
crowbar
cavity
down (first album)
bongzilla
early electric wizard



and then of course theres the neurosis atmospheric sludge, but thats for another thread, eh.



note:
i hope to christ youre taking about sludge metal, otherwise i just wasted a dicload of time.
