Pretty sure ETID is from Buffalo. How are they southern metal? Just wondering. :scratch:

their music is influenced by the south, especially in "The Big Dirty." read their lyrics. They dont have to be from the south to sound southern.

Redneck for me sells it, plus they're really open about being from...I believe they put it, "Richmond-mother-fucking-Virginia" :lol:

:yesway: I would definitely consider LoG a southern band, especially on Sacrament. The riffs are extremely bluesy and the lyrics have always seemed to have a southern edge to it. (particularly on Sacrament and As the Palaces Burn)

Nice to see Southern Metal getting some love. Also good to see Zoroaster's latest posted up top. That video wins.

You guys that dig this shit should probably keep an eye on this if you haven't already.

I'd also like to serve up some good shit if you don't mind. It might not all be 100% southern but its heavy, slow and thick not to mention in the same vein as all the rest. :metal:

Egypt


Elder


Warhorse


And my personal fav, these guys are the shit. The guitarist is a cool guy as well:

Black Pyramid

... i am just gonna leave it that I have personal issues with this kind of thing :lol: this is unfortunately too true :noplease:
BUT, for me, when we're talking about the likes of Down, COC, eyehategod, Crowbar...eh that's Southern Metal. I'll leave it that LoG is influenced by...but that's all I can give because I'm a selfish, close-minded, unyielding music nazi...but hey we're all in good company, right? :lol:

Forgot to put these guys up before...REALLY badass band if you haven't already heard them.

Some of their songs have a very southern feel to them, not sure if that counts.

By the way, this is the sludgiest thread I've seen on SS.org so far, I approve.
