[Interview] Kirk Windstein from CROWBAR talks ‘Zero and Below’, DOWN, Beavis and Butt-Head and more

This week on March 4, New Orleans, Louisiana sludge metal trailblazers CROWBAR will drop their long-awaited new full-length, Zero And Below via MNRK Heavy!

Produced, mixed, and mastered by Duane Simoneaux at OCD Recording And Production in Metairie, Louisiana, Zero And Below is reverently old-school, counterbalanced by a resonant melodicism that’s stunningly mature. The record,  which cements the band’s dense catalog exactly one dozen studio albums deep, is the most unforgivably doom-driven CROWBAR record since their 1998 landmark effort, Odd Fellows Rest.

Led by riff lord KirkWindstein, whose menacing bellow and smooth drawl puts resilient, unrepentant strength behind even the most somber odes to suffering, songs like “Chemical Godz,” “It’s Always Worth The Gain,” and latest single, “Bleeding From Every Hole,”  are unapologetic emotional outpourings, with a bare-knuckle resolve alongside its soul-searching vulnerability, reliably delivered with crushing heaviness.

The Everblack Podcast sat down with Kirk Windstein from CROWBAR to talk about their new album Zero And Below’, appearing on Beavis and Butthead, the status of DOWN, touring with Sepultura and more!
