Crowbar is an American sludge metalband formed in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1990. The
band is fronted by vocalist/guitarist Kirk Windstein, Crowbar’s sole constant member. Through
infusing a slow, low-keyed, brooding doom metal sound with the aggression of hardcore punk,
they pioneered a style known as sludge metal – albeit Windstein admitted a mild dislike to the
term. The band has released 12 albums and done countless tours around the world over the
last 33 years. Currently writing album number 13 which will be released in 2025 by MNRK
Heavy. Alongside Windstein, Tommy Buckley ( drums) Matt Brunson( guitar) and Shane Wesley
(bass) are Crowbar.
