NEUROSIS
Sovereign

Slipcase

Neurosis are major pioneers of the "post-metal" subgenre, and a highly influential sludge band, and by many, considered to be one of the first bands to play this sub-genre of hardcore and metal. Starting with raw hardcore/crust punk in the mid-80's, over the years they evolved through a more atmospheric and psychedelic sound as well as experimenting with many genres (ambient, doom metal, progressive, tribal, post-hardcore and more); resulting in their own original sound.
