11.28.11 | yeah Sludge & Post Metal certainly are crossover genres in a lot of ways. Stoner not so much. good list |
eternium
11.28.11 | It isn't hard to make out the differences at all.. |
Divine
11.28.11 | Sup random alt |
tarkus
11.28.11 | yeah stoner is easier to distinguish from post metal and sludge, which are similar
stoner is closer to doom imo |
Steamboat01
11.28.11 | So would it be fair to put a band like Kylesa in the same category as a band like Acid Bath or Cavity? |
Steamboat01
11.28.11 | Haha, its totally all bullshit. I'm just looking to figure out the tags for the sake of organizing my itunes library and finding new stuff I'd like... its a little easier when you know what you're looking for. |
Steamboat01
11.28.11 | A lot like weedeater, dark castle and kylesa mostly. I like some stuff like eyehategod, dystopia, and grief, but I can't listen too long without getting supremely depressed.
My preference is toward some of the newer kind of psychedelic stuff. |
Steamboat01
11.28.11 | Haha, thanks. Some stuff I'm already into and a lot more stuff I haven't heard of yet. I really appreciate the hand, thanks NickBeijing |

haha. well it's not hard to distinguish between the three.
there is a strong difference between sludge like eyehategod, grief, and dystopia and sludge like like cult of luna, isis, and neurosis.
and drone is also a different genre, that's where Earth comes in. Godflesh and Jesu are different in these styles though. Godflesh uses sludge with industrial metal and Jesu is atmospheric industrial metal with sludge/drone riffs. |

11.28.11 | who gives a f what genre it goes to, if its good music then its good music |
ZombicidalMan
11.28.11 | I usually just go by the length or topics of the song titles TBH. More than ten words makes it "post-metal" |
Ignimbrite
11.28.11 | sludge is Thou, post-metal is Isis, stoner is Sleep |
pcar
11.28.11 | maybe earlier post-metal sounded super similar to sludge but ever since Isis hit the scene there's been a pretty big difference
stoner is a whole other thing |

11.28.11 | i dont think anyone is gonna give you flak for liking Mastodon... |
