"Once they got Gluey Porch Treatments them pill poppin' burnouts were off to the races!" -- Pepper Keenan with the concise history of Eyehategod. Thou rules, as does barely-mentioned NOLA heavyweights Soilent Green.
@th6368 It's still included/mentioned on Eyehategods website and they've been fairly on top of the site in recent years but that's about all I know regarding it. I'm sure if you emailed them you could get some info! As long as it's not malicious and you're respectful, it should be fine!
I'm from New Orleans and have always despised this genre of music. Screaming angry white guys over ridiculously drop tuned guitars. Absolute musical diarrhea. I also get southern pride Confederate vibes from a lot of sludge bands. Such a terrible genre of music made by terrible people.
Proud to live in the hometown Acid Bath was formed in. Dax is well known in the community and one of the biggest inspirations of this area in regards to metalheads.
Just seen Down in Baton Rouge! I’m 24 years old and I think I’m lucky to even have had the chance. Super last minute pop up show and they killed it. So much energy.
As soon as EHG changed the song title to "White neighbor" i completely gave up on them and lost all respect. Bunch of either woke losers or woke fearing losers...
Before they changed their name to Crowbar, they were called The Slugs. Saw them open for Pantera at Guitar Alley in Fat City (New Orleans). Had to be late '89 or very early 1990. They were tuned down to A and super slow. True sludge and it was glorious. Not long after that show, they became Crowbar.
At the 48 or so minute mark , Pepper should have said "New York is alright , if you like bagels !" As a take off of the classic line by punk band FEAR " New York is alright , if you like saxophones !"
