Between Crowbar and Down, Kirk Windstein is one of the undisputed masters of sludge-metal. But anyone who's heard his deep, expressive croak can identify the soulful emotion that comes through in his deceptively catchy, plodding melodies. So much of his signature style likely comes from his deep enjoyment of disco, soul, jazz, funk, pop music and more. The man has an extremely well-rounded music taste that stretches across styles and eras, so we asked him to select 11 of his favorite non-metal records that he thinks every metalhead needs to know. Watch him make his selections and explain why each album matters.

Kirk used to work as a stagehand at lots of shows in the New Orleans area for a large music production company back in the 80s and early 90s, so when he says, "I worked a show," he means as a stagehand. It was really ironic to see Kirk working as a hand at UNO Lakefront Arena then a few months later playing the same arena with the band he led. Kirk is as cool as the underside of your pillow, and hilarious too. He's a nice guy even when nobody is looking.

@abick8725 Год назад

Well said man. When I was 12, I started discovering 70s and early 80s hard rock, then punk, and in my teens in the 90s, it seemed like there was so much division between the music genres. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned to value artists from one genre as much as artists from the next. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I still probably prefer rock and roll most of the time, but now I tend to listen to a lot of music based on my mood. If I’m in the car sitting in traffic in a bad mood from work, I put on something relaxing or an audiobook, not something that might feed my agitation. If I’m about to work out and need a little extra energy, then I’ll put some metal on. The point is, I’ve learned to appreciate the creativity it takes period to make music, as opposed to always concerning myself about which category people think a band or artist should fall in to.

@Chuloloc Год назад

@@abick8725 Yeah, I remember when i first got into social media which was like in 2000 and there was a lot of prejudice and separatism going on against those with diverse musical tastes. Even possible backlashes with homophobic slurs or being called a sellout. I mean you either had to stay in the closet or admit to liking certain artists that wouldn't incur the wrath of the pseudo-righteous, arrogantly hardcore elitists. But life is too short and opinions are like assholes. So like i said before, screw the haters, live your life, enjoy your music. Like Dani Filth from Cradle Of Filth said on the Extreme Metal Episode by Sam Dunn, "I don't see how these people get to make the rules. There are no rules, that's the point."

Being a kid that grew up in the 70s and 80s, you were exposed to a whole different types of music. Radio played stuff that ranged from Country, Rock, Soul, and Top 40 hits. It was a great time growing up and I listen to all the stuff till this day. It was hard to find any radio station playing Metal. The heaviest that radio would play would be the occasional Black Sabbath (Paranoid of course), some Van Halen, and a bunch of Boston. Metal didn't hit me until I was in my teens.

I’m a little older than you (and an original Crow Bar fan), and like you, my main exposure to music in the 70s was AM/FM radio, with a little In Concert, Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert, Roy Clark, and Glenn Campbell on TV. So I’m familiar with all but one of the artists you mentioned. I’m glad you highlighted ROBIN TROWER, one of my favorite artists. BRIDGE OF SIGHS is a masterpiece and everyone should have it in their library. But the first TROWER song I ever heard was SHAME THE DEVIL, from FOR EARTH BELOW. MY head nearly exploded. If that’s not a Metal song, it’s certainly Metal adjacent. I also recommend to anybody who doesn’t already know, check out THE CARPENTERS.

I'm a big crowbar fan, I agree with a wide musical pallette. I disagree about a few of his choices, but hey, everyone is different right.

I, too, am partial to Metal but at the same time really dig artists like Steely Dan and Elton John.

Great list man and good to share especially for the younger generation. I’m 52 now and got into music at 13 listening to Motörhead, Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden which has progressed all the way through to Rammstein, Voi Vod, Slipknot and everything in between. Firmly a metal head but I also love the artists you’ve suggested. I would also recommend Jamiroquai, Simple Minds, Kate Bush, Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry, Frank Sinatra, The Beatles and even classical, Mozart especially to name but a few. So much fantastic music out there and no need to stick to metal. If a tune has a good bass line I’m usually hooked. Cheers from Australia 🍻

Trower’s In This Place track on Bridge Of Sighs with Jimmy Dewar on vocals is Sublime and like and Kirk’s work with Down it’s got that groove

Kirk! Love ya brother! From one Nola boy to another. Great choices and thanks for sharing. Also, I truly enjoy your recent solo album. To close out I will never forget seeing you live at St. Christopher's gym fronting Victorian Blitz. If I ever make it back to Pat's I'll by you a few rounds. 🤘🍺

There was a list that DOWN had put up on Spotify some time ago that followed this theme…and it introduced me to Dr John…or really just made me realize who he was. I’m from Louisiana and had heard his tunes my whole life but never put a name to it. That night tripper album though, it changed my life. I really saw myself in that record, and I really appreciated all the different eclectic blends of culture on it. That LP was made with magick, Jack. No doubt about it. It was 3 months before the Doctor passed too. Weird how that works out sometimes. Rest In Peace.
