Eyehategod

New Orleans, LA, US · 1988–present · active
New Orleans' Eyehategod are the definitive sludge metal band, dragging blues-soaked doom through a swamp of feedback, distortion, and misanthropic fury since 1988. Mike IX Williams' anguished howl over Jimmy Bower's crushing, tempo-shifting riffs on 'Take as Needed for Pain' and 'Dopesick' established the blueprint that inspired countless sludge and doom acts. Their sound is as much a product of New Orleans' oppressive heat and hard living as any musical influence, making them inseparable from their environment.
