67. Gurt – “Bongs of Praise”

I love Gurt. I love their unique brand of party sludge. This is knee deep in fuzzy distorted riffs that reverberate through your soul. But it also has a playful side. Gurt may make primal gritty metal that sounds like the bowls of hell bellowing out but they also have the ability to hold a tune. Yes the tracks here are heavy and fuzzy but they are also fun. It is that irreverent and impish side that makes “Bongs of Praise” stand out from every other record peddling stoner friendly warped hazy metal.
