INFO: Sleep is an American doom metal / stoner rock trio from San Jose, California. The band has often been talked about as one of the more influential bands in those genres in addition to acts like Kyuss, High on Fire and Om. They were founded in 1990 then broke up by the end of the decade but got back together in 2009 and have been active ever since. Now what makes Sleep such a unique band to a lot of fans is their 1999 released third album Jerusalem and the altered and slightly more popular version of this album known as Dopesmoker released in 2003. It’s an album consisting of one song lasting over 50 minutes. Some versions lasting over an hour. On top of that, the song is also quite monotonous. Guitarist Matt Pike repeats the same notes and melodic patterns over and over. When i describe it it might come off as boring. So why is this album regarded as a stoner rock cornerstone? That’s the question i’ll answer in this video.
