Smoking Crack with Syd Barrett

Load - Sleestack

LOAD were the best sludge/hardcore band from Miami that you never heard of. They self released a handful of amazing 7"s and an LP through the early 90's. They might have been better known but they were plagued by crack and stupidity. I went to high school with the guitarist. Here is their 1993 ep "Sleestack"

  4. I saw this band play with someone weird like Korn (before they were huge). I was a big buzzoven fan and remember seeing buzzoven stickers on load's equipment. they were amazing! are they still alive?

  5. How about posting LOAD's self released LP. They were great live > I saw them a dozen times from Miami to west Palm Beach. You never knew what Bobby was going to do. Great Band.
