Crowbar - Time Heals Nothing (1995)^{Release ID: 3418}

Less doomy and more energetic than the last album, Time Heals Nothing is full of aggressive negativity. It falls closer into true, pure Sludge, but there’s a stronger leaning towards Hardcore Punk and Metalcore than before. For me personally, I prefer the doomier, more melancholic approach of the previous album, but this is still a very solid slab of Sludge. The vocals in particular sound great, but they always have been from this band.

Other than that, there’s not much to say. Every song here is high quality and consistent, and Crowbar have never deviated much in their sound or structure since their debut. It you like classic Sludge, this is a great spin.
