16 - Forgeries Vol 1, 1972-1984 (LP)

Californian sludge legends 16 have built a reputation for their crushing, unrelenting sound over decades of underground dominance, and Forgeries Vol. 1, 1972–1984 offers a fascinating look at the music that shaped them. This covers album draws from a wide and surprising range of sources — from Scorpions and Blue Öyster Cult to the Bee Gees and Black Flag — spanning over a decade of rock history and revealing the eclectic DNA behind one of sludge metal's most formidable acts.

What makes Forgeries Vol. 1, 1972–1984 such a compelling listen is how seamlessly 16 make these tracks their own, filtering each song through their signature sound with such conviction that some could be mistaken for originals. Released on Heavy Psych Sounds, this ultra-limited pressing is a must for dedicated fans of the band and anyone who appreciates a covers record done with real depth and intentionality.
