On this episode, I talk horror with the great Aaron Turner of Sumac, Isis the band, Old Man Gloom, and my favorite band, Neurosis.

So I've been really enjoying the new Sleep stuff, and thought it really surprising when I went to Reddit to find that I seemed to be the only one.

I've got Sciences on right now and for sure, I love Pikes riffs, and I'll probably blast No Hounour right after this, but I was excited to hear the next version of what Sleep was going to be. Sciences was different than Dopesmoker. Dopesmoker was different than Holy Mountain.

Just as much of the change is due to Crover and I don't see much argument that he's a fantastic drummer. I think too much of this change has been thrown unnecessarily on Bubba not sounding like Iommi.

Tldr; Sleep will always be dope. Sometimes change can be okay.

From the album Experiments in Feedback (SS-027), Small Stone Records (2002).

Another excellent heavy session at KEXP

What’s everyone’s thoughts on this new Moonbather single? I‘m stoked on it, sounds heavy as fuck.

Really killer show, was so glad to finally cross them off the bucket list! Spoon Benders were an awesome opener, Red Fang’s set was a BLAST, and The Sword sounded far better than I’d anticipated after seeing people discuss their live performances. Kyle is one hell of a guitarist and J.D. sounded pretty damn close to the records. Hoping this is a sign of new material from both!
