CROWBAR
OCD RECORDINGS AND PRODUCTION, NEW ORLEANS
NOLA sludge kings get downtuned in downtown
Kirk Windstein charts a lifetime of highs and lows
BEAMED FROM A local recording studio two miles from downtown New Orleans, Crowbar have opted for a low-key performance tonight. But then again, ‘the masters of NOLA sludge’ don’t need to rely on flashy theatrics to prove their cred when they’ve got one of metal’s coolest dudes, Kirk ‘Beard Of Doom’ Windstein, at the helm. In the intimate surrounding of OCD Recordings And Production, the four-piece begin their third livestream of the pandemic, kicking off with Self Inflicted and its Meshuggah-like chugs.
