Crowbar was never afraid to share their pain, and TIME HEALS NOTHING exemplifies the New Orleans doom purveyor's well-practiced aching out loud. The final recording before a series of lineup changes and side projects tested on the band's focus, this disc might qualify as the sludge rocker's most punishing collection. Songs like "Through a Wall of Tears" typify the depressing, densely textured morass that the group's loyal following spent almost a decade wallowing in. Pulling double-duty, Wildstein crafts the thickest of sludge-guitar grooves that nicely complement the vocals and Craig Ninenmacher's solid drumming. Bitter howling and the thickest of slow-metal riffing combine to make this 1995 Pavement Music release as powerful as any of the band's attempts at sour self-evisceration.
