Djerv - Sludge metal supergroup from Norway

I remember they were suggested before (maybe by you), but I don't think they fit into any of the categories at the time.  Hard rock would probably be the closest, so if that team doesn't think they fit, then I doubt they'd be added here.  Maybe alt-metal could possibly be a fit.

Looking at the old thread, it doesn't appear a decision was made (or at least it wasn't posted there).

I also checked the alt-metal thread and they were never mentioned there.  I don't remember discussing them in the sludge thread either.

The first sample posted sounds sort of like sludge to me, the others mostly alt or hard rock I'd say.  I do think they belong on the site, just not sure where.
