Rough Trade Essential

Sleep is a stoner rock band hailing from San Jose, California. Formed in 1990, the band emerged from the remains of Asbestosdeath and consists of Al Cisneros on vocals and bass, Matt Pike on guitar, and Chris Hakius on drums.
After their initial breakup, Matt Pike went on to form High On Fire while Al Cisneros and Chris Hakius reunited in OM. In 2009, Sleep reunited for two sets at All Tomorrow's Parties. The following year, they resumed touring with drummer Jason Roeder replacing Chris Hakius.
With their unique sound and powerful performances, Sleep has become a legendary name in the stoner rock genre.

Third Man Records was founded in 2001 by Jack White, Ben Swank, and Ben Blackwell in Detroit. In 2010, they established a physical location in Nashville, TN. The TMR building serves as the company headquarters and houses the label's offices, a vinyl record store, photo studio, dark room, and performance stage.
The label is best known for producing bands such as The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, and The Dead Weather. They have become synonymous with high-quality vinyl records and have created a strong presence in the music industry.
With their commitment to preserving the art of vinyl records and their dedication to supporting emerging artists, Third Man Records continues to be a driving force in the music e-commerce world.

Epic. Sleep's Dopesmoker is one of the heaviest, most powerful pieces of stoner / doom metal to ever be recorded. The intense hour-long song is a journey through sound like no other. It's as if they took the most potent aspects of early Black Sabbath and stretched it out, like a thunderous drone, over the course of three sides of wax. Here is the groundbreaking cut in its entirety plus additional live material from 1994 and 1992, respectively.
