The Kyuss poll made me think of this. Definately a bit more "doomy" and heavier/harsher than Kyuss, but I put on "Sleep's Holy Mountain" when I need to scratch my stoner rock itch.
NOT CRAP!
Band: Sleep.
2Outstanding band. I wish they were still around.
I'm glad Matt Pike's still coming up with great music in High on Fire.

4i swear to god, every time i hear a band for the first time and like it, a week later it shows up on Crap/Not Crap.
Not Crap!

5Dazzling Killmen had the extreme fortune to open for Sleep and Neurosis for 3 shows in San Fran., LA and San Diego back in 1994. Totally intense.
"This song's called Dopesmoker".
Yeah!
"This song's called Dopesmoker".
Yeah!
Band: Sleep.
6oh yes indeed!
don't you think the start of "Jerusalem/Dopesmoker" sounds like the Imperial march from Star Wars (TM Lucasfilm)?

That rocked.
Nick, you're forgetting the line though, it was right after they set up: "Hey, we're Sleep. This is our last song, it's called Dopesmoker."
Al has a new band that I have yet to hear. I can't really see High on Fire any more, i need to keep the last shreds of my hearing for my twilight years. Love those guys.
Band: Sleep.
9Oh! Thanks for the clarification.
Those guys had their own special vocabulary, I seem to remember.
After we played in San Diego, Matt said to me: "Dude....wall.........prison...." and smiled.
Yes.

10Would the "kids on their bikes looking for cats to kill" scene in Gummo have been filled with such evil portent if that Sleep riff weren't playing in the background? Hell no!
Not crap.
And High on Fire's just gonna be heavier than ever now that they have Joe Preston in the band (tho who wants to lay a wager on how long he's in the band? He's a terminal loner?).
