Welcome to The Sludgelord’s Sour 16. Each month, you the reader are unwittingly compiling a list of the top 16 records of the month, covering all genres of metal, but predominately the best the doom, sludge, stoner-psychedelic genres have to offer. I have been promising to do this since the
beginning of the year and in essence you can call it what you wish, is
it chart? Not really. It is merely the 16 records you guys have been most interested
in over the last month and you have been checking out on this very page.
Our idea for this thing was to turn the power
over to you guys, yes it would be easy for us to choose our favourite records of
the months, however it is you the
reader, the fans that support these bands, buy their records and attend their shows. So here is the inarguable Sour 16, the 16
records you’re most looking forward too or are currently checking out. Check em out, spread the word and perhaps
revisit some records you may have overlooked.
The results are compiled based on page views alone and calibrated into the list below. So without further ado, this is the Sour 16. So until next month, roll up, kick back, chug a beer and Hail the riff! All review links, are held under the artwork.
