Sumac is very much the continuation of the post-sludge of Aaron Turner's former band Isis, as exemplified in their second album and this live album rendition of a few songs from that album and their debut The Deal. The lengthy structures and atmospheric soundscapes bring to mind not just Isis but also Cult of Luna, Neurosis, and Rosetta. So I'd like to submit Sumac's "What One Becomes" and "WFMU" to The Hall to be added to The Infinite as post-metal while maintaining their position in The Fallen and sludge metal.

I've passed these two nominations uncontested Andi.
