GAZ12345 wrote: Southern Lord has announced a deluxe reissue of one of the towering achievements in metal history, "Dopesmoker" by SLEEP.
For the 2012 reissue, there are some very notable changes. The original studio tapes have been remastered, presenting the album as the band had originally intended. The audio is clearer, louder, and at last brings a true representation of SLEEP's hour-plus Weedian chronicle. Exclusive to this Southern Lord edition is brand new artwork by longtime SLEEP artist Arik Roper, to be unveiled in the coming weeks. Additionally, this reborn version of "Dopesmoker" boasts an unreleased live recording of one of the band's best all-time performances: "Holy Mountain" from San Francisco's I-Beam in 1994.
This edition ensures that this mesmerizing, incredibly complex document remains unrivaled in the annals of stoner metal.
"Dopesmoker" track listing:
01. Dopesmoker (1:03:31)
02. Holy Mountain (Live @ the I-Beam SF, CA. 1994) (11:54)
Wasn't the version released by TeePee records in 2003 or whenever supposed to be the definitive article also at the time. I prefer to just put on Jerusalem if I'm listening to this. Im familiar with that version. |

I didn't expect a lot from Sleep on Saturday night, but they blew me away. The Holy Mountain tunes drawn out and as so lound and heavy. I think I'll go to Dublin just to experience it in a smaller venue. And then in a massive venue at the ATP thing.
I always thought Holy Mountain was the stuff of legend, but seeing some of the songs done live just showed it in a completely different even more legendary light. |

| They played a lot of stuff I didn't recognise. I only know Holy Mountain really well though. I don't know how many times they dipped in and out of Dopesmoker. I was hoping for Snowblind but that didn't happen. They also cover Over The Mountain I hear. 1 hr 55 min set. Gruelling. |
