STANDING STOUT: Slagduster

Slagduster is a band whose music I sat on for some time giving it so many listens I can’t even tell you. I loved the sound that they laid on the table because it combined so many things in metal that i am a fan of. From hard driving rhythms, melody, infectious grooves, and death metal vocals into a melting pot of metal mayhem. I loved every second of it every time I listened to it. I can hear the resemblance to bands like Gojira and some of the stoner metal bands, perhaps Mastodon and Baroness are influences. Their Facebook Page says that they are ‘Groove-Tech-Death Metal’ and they couldn’t be any more correct in their description. From the stop-on-a-dime tempo changes to the crunchy southern groove Slagduster lays it on the table with every track.

About Matthew Kuritz

Born in 1989 in a small town in South Carolina, Matthew was raised on metal. His father, a huge KISS and other classic rock/metal fan and his brother wh owas raised during he hay-day of Hair Metal and Grunge, Matthew was made to do this. I digest any and all music that comes my way; not just metal. Metal for me strikes the rebellious, angry, and energizing nerve that no other music can. Metal has the most talent, most feeling, and most power than any kind of music. I am always up for discussing anything and everything involving metal and other music.
