Floor is the debut self-titled studio album by American sludge metal band Floor released in 2002 on the No Idea Records label. After recording EP's and demo's over an approximate ten-year period in an attempt to capture the doom-pop sound they have become known for, the bands use of providing the biggest possible sound with minimal guitar work finally paid off. Giving it a positive rating, AllMusic's Gregory Heaney said of the album "...though the riffs here feel, at times, Sunn O)))-like, the thunderous drums help the whole package feel propulsive rather than ponderous."

In May 2013, Floor was inducted into Decibel Magazine’s Hall of Fame.[1]
