		For Crowbar’s sound, I think that, in the beginning the two most important bands that influenced me, other than Sabbath, were probably, like, The Melvins and Carnivore at the time, the Retaliation record because it was a good blend of crossin’ over slow, sick-ass parts with the Hardcore stuff and that was kinda like

	In Music We Trust - Crowbar: Sludge: History of Crowbar
		It is not that there is anything wrong with the music of CROWBAR, in fact there is a lot right with it, but it just galls me as I listen to this that they are the biggest name in sludge/doomcore/molassescore in the world.
		Their Sabbath-worship is impressive, their songwriting is better than most and their musicianship goes without question but dammit they are just nowhere near as heavy, as gritty, as raw or as ugly as countless of their peers.
		I realize CROWBAR isn't necessarily trying to do the same things as true monsters of slow like GRIEF or NOOTHGRUSH or CORRUPTED instead they fall somewhere between that and true doom metal (ala SOLACE) but, again dammit, there are a lot of other bands who fall into that in-between no-man's land who deserve more attention.
