besides those mentioned I also like Karma To Burn, Nebula, Masters of Reality, Samsara Blues, Monster Magnet, & Giant Robot in the Stoner domain. Dunno if all those slide into the specific Sludge category tho.

Anyone who has never checked out The Desert Sessions (10 volumes) do it. A lot of gems to be found. Some amazing playing for first take stuff. Also several QOTSA songs before they recorded them as a band. The Sessions have a lot of Homme, Catching & Goss. Most anyone associated with the Palm Desert music scene can be found on them.

I'm curious what y'all think about this group. A group out of Austin led by someone I know. Good? Bad? Average?

I really haven't been into this genre, but it is growing on me.

Indeed lots of good tunes. If you go back and look at who has played in the desert sessions that alone should make you want to check it out.


quote:

The Desert Sessions began in August 1997 at the Rancho De La Luna in Joshua Tree when Homme brought together musicians from the bands Monster Magnet, Goatsnake, earthlings?, Kyuss (his own band, which had split in 1995) and Soundgarden.[citation needed] The ranch is an old house filled to the brim with rare and unique recording equipment and instruments and was owned by Dave Catching and the late Fred Drake. Songs are written "on the spot", and in matters of hours. Many stories have grown around the Sessions. For example, the song "Creosote" from Volumes 9 & 10 was written by Dean Ween and Alain Johannes on the ranch's front porch within four minutes of meeting each other.[citation needed] Similarly, Chris Goss and PJ Harvey wrote the song "There Will Never Be A Better Time" for I See You Hearin' Me after going out onto the porch of the ranch for four minutes with an acoustic guitar; they re-entered the house and recorded the song in one take, the only time the song was ever played by the collective.[1]
