Description of sludge music
Sludge music is a heavy and aggressive style of music that originated in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the United States. It is often characterized by its slow and heavily distorted sound, with a focus on heavy, crushing riffs, aggressive vocals, and a raw, unpolished production style. Sludge music is often associated with the Southern United States, particularly Louisiana, and takes influences from various genres such as doom metal, hardcore punk, and noise rock. Some of the most notable sludge bands include Eyehategod, Crowbar, and Acid Bath.
