life is noise is proud to announce the return of stoner-doom legends SLEEP to Australia for their first full tour.
When Sleep broke up in 1998, it looked like their magnum opus – the sprawling, hour+ long, single track slice of epic stoner goodness that’s now known as Jerusalem or Dopesmoker – would never be heard. We realised stoner metal had lost one if its trailblazers and we tried our best to move on. But 16 years later, the masters of doom live again. The fever dream journey that is Dopesmoker has been unleashed in its unedited, epic glory, and Sleep are back with their first piece of new music since 1998 with what guitarist Matt Pike describes as "the lyrical follow up to a lifetime of marijuana enjoyment" – The Clarity.
