Lucas Klaukien's Top 25 Album of 2013

I’ve had a great time getting to know many of the guys behind the Sludgelord blog over the past year (Steve, Aaron, Matt, Chris & Richard) and contributing the odd review here and there.  They’ve done a lot of amazing things this year and it’s been an absolute joy to watch the blog grow into a behemoth.  I support the Sludgelord because of all those reasons, I support the Sludgelord because they held a massive auction with proceeds going to the daughter of late Eyehategod drummer Joey Lacaze, I support Sludgelord because they support artists both big and small and they do it genuinely and they do it enthusiastically.  And I support Sludgelord because it’s a one stop place for all your stoner / doom / sludge needs.  It’s been a pleasure being a tiny cog in this machine.  Cheers from across the waters lads!
