Sleep Performing HOLY MOUNTAIN / SELECTIONS FROM DOPESMOKER AND MORE.


Legendary stoner rock band Sleep split in 1998 after two hugely influential albums and members went on to form underground heroes High On Fire and Om. They reform for two performances at ATP as a world exclusive that will never be repeated.
They will perform the album Holy Mountain as well as selections from Dopesmoker and more.

I have a feeling other dates (ala My Bloody Valentine) will happen.

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

still no desire to go to a festival.

 

[rotten tropics]

considering you get to stay in a chalet with friends and when i was there, and from what i've heard recently it still seems that its not an ''everybody get as fucked up as possible'' affair, so if yr not too mad on festivals this one isn't too festival-ish if you get me.

Everyone says that every year,and yet still afterwords all anybody talks about is the getting wrecked side of things. I'd go see Sleep if they played somewhere like Whelans,but wouldn't travel to something like that for any band.
It's crazy to think when Sleep existed they were for the most part thought of as boring Sabbath rip offs. I remember constantly trying to convince people to buy the other copies of the 7" that sat in Dr Roberts for an incredibly long time. Should have bought them al myself rather than just one copy.

I bought one of them Gary and later sold it for £1 (I got it back at a later date). Tempted to go to this, but I can't really be assed with ATP. Holy Mountain has been a staple favorite of mine since it was released and I'm kind of happy just listening to it every few months and watching the Dragonaut video every now and again. Live next year is never gonna be as good as that video.

Part of what made them so amazing to me was that nobody gave a shit. Seriously, I was laughed at for liking them. A few people I knew caught on by the second record but most people didn't come round to them until way after the fact.
Don't think I could handle the wankfest that atp would be.

If only! Absolute cracker of a gig though. Met a load of yank crusties who were baffled by the concept of the dole. And free hospitals. Smelly bastards though.
