« It’s difficult to carve a unique identity in the somewhat homogenous world of sludge but France’s Mudbath have achieved just that with their 3-song EP, "Red Desert Orgy". There are the familiar nods to the heralded triumvirate of the genre (Sleep, Eyehategod, and Neurosis) but Mudbath expands upon those influences with elements of blues-rock, heard particularly during the guitar solos, and a dose of heavy grunge. Incorporating those palette expanders, coupled with the group’s fantastic use of harmony, gives their compositions a compelling richness that speaks to the listener’s musical intellect. They’re able to avoid the trappings of redundancy from which many sludge and stoner acts suffer with thoughtful and distinguishing note choices. For fans of the slow, hard and heavy. » — Invisible Oranges
