I swear, you could get a team of 50 guitarists, give them the exact same guitar, setup, and amps as Matt Pike and they still couldn't produce something a tenth as heavy as what Matt Pike casually throws out there. Soul-crushingly heavy awesomeness.
the album version is lackluster imo; this was at their prime and it shows. this song takes off like it's the drugs grabbing you by the hojos and throwing you into outer orbit.
So within a year I get to see Black Sabbath, Kyuss (supported by no less than Red Fang and Orange Goblin) and Sleep. The three most important bands to stoner rock, all long broken up and they reunite just as I'm getting into the scene. Perfection.
If theres one song that survives Sleep this one has to be. The summary of their style, music, composition and even their spiritual beliefs all packed in a big giant sonic titan. Long live Sleep
That is true to an extent. When I first started smoking weed it completely changed the way I listened to music. It made it sound sweeter and heard different layers that I never heard before. But after awhile it kind of becomes the same old same old. And then when I got sober, it all seemed like it did when I first started smoking lol.
This version of the song is my favorite, it sounds so heavy. Al’s rig was also really awesome and more bass-y back then. But like I mean, the new version and The Sciences in general is like SO GOOOOOOOD HOLY FUCK!
How can anything so new sound so god damn vintage. Amazing how this is sounds like something that could've been recorded in woodstock, haha. Except for the huge amount of heaviness
The main difference I hear in this opposes to “the Sciences” version, is that there seems to be more open work going on the chordal work happening. You can hear a cleaner sound In this version, then in The Sciences, Which ultimately gives you more… Fuzzier doesn’t necessarily mean heavier.
A song I believe inspired that bass riff is Behind The Wall Of Sleep by Black Sabbath. If you haven't heard it before, go listen to it NOW. :D Great stuff man. I'm pretty sure that song is about sleep paralysis and out of body experiences/Astral projection.
This sonic titan has frenetic sound, I've not ever heard like this.. This great guys just do it with guitars.. and it's played HOW nice!! Thanks to hearing this!
+alienthompson I run an Epiphone Les Paul Custom Pro through a EHX Big Muff Pi w/ Tone/Wicker, Digitech Bad Monkey, and into a Marshall tube combo... Unbelievable Sleep tones!
I fucking knew I heard this years ago pre-The Sciences... my memories from college are very hazy for obvious reasons but I was certain this existed back then!
very 'frankensteiney' skeleton jangle-ly sounding...very powerful like frankenstein monster...unstoppable...ponderous , intently oncoming stopping for nothing...awesome!... (i'm ole skool and i mean the boris karloff frankenstein from the movies in the 1930s movies)
A warrior covered in flames, on a 4-headed race horse with a helmet, a sword, and a lizard tongue is gonna haunt my mind until I'm in the fucking ground. epic!
I really dig this version of the song, however it sounds a lot like Black Sabbath... newer version really made it their own and made it a ton heavier. Either way, a killer track.
Sleep(and all stoner metal and some doom metal) is music for an underground culture of stoners. We listen to this music as a life style. I smoke everyday and still have all Bs and As in college and have a good job. It is a lifestyle many people dont understand and fear it because they compare it to real drug addicts. My boss has 2 masters and is friends with many professors (some at MIT) and he has been a regular smoker since yearly teenage years. Stoners arent what you think. Look at Carl Sagan
I cut my teeth to heavy metal and just recently found out about the Stoner Metal genre, I love sleep, you can deffinetly hear some sabbath influencein there, it's hard to find cd's or mp3's
Lifestyle comes from the music one listen's to most of the time. Everyone is different. For me, i was a metalhead since early age, then i got into Stoner/Doom once I started somking marijuana. It sort of came along, I cant really tell you what I got into first, Weed or Stoner Metal.. Anyhow, I have a friend that was always a stoner and recently became a stoner/doom fan. On the other hand, I have had a girlfriend that would die for Electric wizard, but never smoked until she met me

@thatguy13346 Yeah dude same...maybe you could find it in Real Groovy in Auckland, but if like me you don't live in Auckland it sucks....keep an eye out on trademe.
@Switchfifty But the thing is it already sounds good compared to those other crap like pop or other forms of rock or metal without even taking a puff. I bet it sounds really good when taking a hit.

I’m in this phase now. Care to elaborate? Lol

Andrew McNevin Because they have their shirts on.
Still my favorite version of this song. Nothing against the version on the album the sciences, just like this one better.
Al was younger, vocals sound more sabbathy. Also matts tone is different. All together more raw
the album version is lackluster imo; this was at their prime and it shows. this song takes off like it's the drugs grabbing you by the hojos and throwing you into outer orbit.
Both are good, why compare both versions anyway? They keep sounding like Sleep.
Definitely. This is a little rough around the edges, but it's a little quicker and a lot heavier than the album version.
Agreed, I like that it has a slightly faster tempo
Here is where most people get it wrong. We don't need drugs to appreciate the music. We need music to appreciate the drugs !
Now thats what im talkin about. stay blazed pal
That's it
based
It's both. We need the music, and the drugs.

Lucky fuck
psco4963 You mean Kyuss Lives?
Missing Electric Wizard. They're touring now. GO SEE THEM!
I saw all three with original line-ups on their original runs. Which means...I’m old! ;)
deepspacepilot your a god damned legend keep smoking bong rips and being ripped apart by heavy riffs.
Lmao, you know how stoned they were when they start singing
McFro95 uuuuh yeah?
Amen brother
Lmao sounds like Al is singing for his life haha.

Matt pike needs to run for president
I have a bumper sticker that says Matt Pike for President! :D
Too late >.

Psssh! Could you imagine though?? The reactions from the crowd at Woodstock? Lmao
Worlds biggest both mosh pit and mass suicide
There needs to be a studio recording on the new album...
TheJaden426 same for antarcticans thawed!
don't forget Hot Lava Man!
+Jeroen Verbeeck and Hot Lava Man
They're gonna release tomorrow (20/04/18) their new album (The Sciences) and Sonic Titan is finally recorded!
And compared to this sloppy live version, the album one sucks big time. I mean, how freaking slow can you play, and what for?
The heaviest jam ever
Is it me or I cant seem to stop listening to this song?!
The main difference I hear in this opposes to “the Sciences” version, is that there seems to be more open work going on the chordal work happening. You can hear a cleaner sound In this version, then in The Sciences, Which ultimately gives you more… Fuzzier doesn’t necessarily mean heavier.
Electric wizard and sleep are best listened to when high..
Sure bud 😀👍
favorite sleep song

Tomorrow - 420 - NEW SLEEP - This song is on the new album too???????? I'm stonked
Yeah for some reason it's not as badass as this version!
that riff like 4 minutes in is fucking amazing. pretty creative with it
The Melvins! "With Teeth" is just the greatest
2:04 is probably my favorite part
dude your set up looks like mine except i dont have orange i have silvertone
hell yeah dude the gibson with the big muff pi is a killer combo, and I love my orange!
+alienthompson I run an Epiphone Les Paul Custom Pro through a EHX Big Muff Pi w/ Tone/Wicker, Digitech Bad Monkey, and into a Marshall tube combo... Unbelievable Sleep tones!
+James Bruinsma that sounds insane
James Bruinsma sounds dope, now you just need to upgrade to a Gibson Les Paul or SG and you'll be in bidness
I fucking knew I heard this years ago pre-The Sciences... my memories from college are very hazy for obvious reasons but I was certain this existed back then!
Sleep "We like Sabbath and weed what you gonna do about it?"
Me "I think I'm gonna load a bowl..."
😂😂😂😂
i accidently found this band high
Michael Tatt it wasnt an accident.
This version is so much better than the new recording
One of their best.
very 'frankensteiney' skeleton jangle-ly sounding...very powerful like frankenstein monster...unstoppable...ponderous , intently oncoming stopping for nothing...awesome!...
(i'm ole skool and i mean the boris karloff frankenstein from the movies in the 1930s movies)
I've never listened to this music while high, but i look forward to it :)
A warrior covered in flames, on a 4-headed race horse with a helmet, a sword, and a lizard tongue is gonna haunt my mind until I'm in the fucking ground. epic!
I really dig this version of the song, however it sounds a lot like Black Sabbath... newer version really made it their own and made it a ton heavier. Either way, a killer track.
Saw this song played live last night in Seattle. Just. Fucking. Brutal.
fuck man i was in my early 20's when this came out!
it is the fucking best recording of that song ever. it felt like torture when i first listened to it in the sciences
Would be nice to see Sleep playing Sonic Titan live.
Play this and Holy Mountain at the same time. So awesome. Highly Distorted, but awesome
What a fucking jam dude.
Damn! Garage Metal at it's finest! I love this!
This song finally has a studio version!!
sleep kicks ass like no other man
Discovering Sleep is probably the second greatest musical find I've ever had, next to the Melvins of course.
Primus
This is better than the studio version they released later.
guess you really need to look up Druid and its cover of it, a studio version that sounds more like this live version
@@skeven0 👀u have my attention
@stopglobalswarming
yeah, about 12 years ago now...
However, they played last year on some festival, and they will be playing this year!
Sanic Titan
I don't give a fuck what anyone says. I fucking love Sleep. It's the perfect music to play while getting a tattoo.
This is going to be my next record purchase.
I like the part from 0:00 to 9:15
Indeed, sounds so crisp and gigantic live haha
This is fucking incredible
The visual I get for this is ship full of cyclops hunting whales.
daaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAmN! THESE GUYS ARE EPIC.

the best of this song is from 0:00 to 9:16 and again!
I would turn this up louder, but the people around me get pissy when good music occurs.
good shit man. Im glad it didnt turn into a flame war. cheers
true that, i put this up here in hopes that more people would hear about them and look into em'
nicely put
@staticpeoplemusic thats my favorite tune of theirs too!!!
amazing -.-
So if Dopesmoker was the last Sleep album... and this was its final track... this is kinda like sleeps last song! How bittersweet crunchy these riffs.
Not anymore it ain’t.
mucho fuego.
epic music is epic , epic music on weed , it's like heaven __________
This is one of their very best songs. I wonder why they didn't release it on SHM.
@tyvegutt It just means the sound guy did a good job of keeping the mic on Sleep and only Sleep.
I cut my teeth to heavy metal and just recently found out about the Stoner Metal genre, I love sleep, you can deffinetly hear some sabbath influencein there, it's hard to find cd's or mp3's

I think this version is best.
Sleep make nightmares :P
me too!
@forestrootshakyknees You don't have to buy it, but a band like Sleep is worth supporting, so you should buy it anyway.
I do, try it
@Switchfifty But the thing is it already sounds good compared to those other crap like pop or other forms of rock or metal without even taking a puff. I bet it sounds really good when taking a hit.
Sleep is Fucking amzing
just got Dopesmoker on vinyl :)
Why did they never do a studio recording of this one?
You just got one brother!
Collapsible Hell YEAH!!!!!!!
YOOOOOOO WE JUST GOT ONE
Now we can start the discussion on whether this version or The Sciences recording is better! ;)
Tbh I can't get enough of this song whatever version it is \m/
