In German folklore, a drude is a kind of
malevolent nocturnal spirit associated with nightmares. Today’s featured artist at The Sludgelord,
Indianapolis
progressive sludgers take the name Drude
and play the kind of sludgy metal, that builds and destroys and then rebuilds 7
minutes at a time. The band's sound is a
dense and measured hybrid of doom, hesher and prog that sedates and bludgeons
with equal abandon. In a musical environment where attention spans are null, Drude
make music that commands attention and is the stuff of nightmare, creating
their own brand of malevolent noise that will undoubtedly cause a stir within
in the underground scene.
Formerly known as BURN THE ARMY,
