Could someone recommend me some good sludge? Preferably something heavy and gritty. Maybe a little drone for good measure.
 
Acid Bath is the best band but their sound isn't all that abrasive.

You should check out:

Dystopia
EyeHateGod
Dot(.)
The Indomitable Iron Sloth
Iron Monkey

I'm not a huge sludge fan though, these are a few obvious..
 
Recommendations are appreciated. I've been wanting to get into sludge for awhile so I will definitly check out all these bands. I don't know why I haven't heard Acid Bath yet.
 
Eyehategod are the masters.

Crowbar is one of my favorites even though they're on the more coherant side of sludge.

Not quite sludge, but if you like the slow ungodly heavy sound...check out Floor.

I like the Zoroaster suggestion. They're starting to really make a name for themselves. Congrats to those guys.
 
Fleshpress - Self titled - Very much in the vein of eyehategod
Taint - Ruins of terra nove - Pretty good too, not exactly sludge but they definitely have that feel to them at times
Abandon - In Reality We Suffer - Some heavy grind/sludge, I love 'em
Capricorns - Ruder Forms Survive
Boris - Absolutego and Amplifier Worship - both great sludgey albums
Old man gloom - Meditations In B
Kylesa - To Walk A Middle Course - Awesome sludge album

Iron monkey are hands down my favourite sludge group though.
 
Really enjoying Acid Bath - Paegan Terrorism Tactics for the past couple days. I'll probably pick up some EyeHateGod next round trip to the record store. I'll look for a couple others also while i'm there.
