I just picked up Sleep's Dopesmoker, and I absolutely love it. The lyrics are so stoned but so damn good.. "Proceeds the Weedian to Nazareth" and of the course the "Drop out of Life with Bong in Hand" line.. Stupid but so damn memorable. Also, the riffs are freaking huge and never get boring, and the rythym section is really great (As their work in Om proves, too..)

Anyone else a fan of this album/band?

My personal favorite is Sleep's Holy Mountain.

Have you listened to Om's Conference of the Birds?

That's the only Om i've got. I really like it, but I can never find the right time to listen to it.

Seriously, you could probably form a religion out of that album.

I prefer Variations on a Theme to Conference of the Birds, but only barely.  To be honest they might as well be a single body of work.  It's just that the opening track on Variations on a Theme might be the best song ever.  I've been known to play nothing but the 5 songs on those 2 albums, again and again, for days at a time.

I haven't gotten Om's tracks from the splits with Current 93 or Six Organs of Admittance ... I'm looking forward to that.

Oh, and Sleep?  The stuff that legends are made of.  Come to think of it, I haven't listened to Dopesmoker all the way through in a LONG time.  I need to get back on that.  Ganjatron, activate!

This thread makes me think of Bongzilla.

You should all listen to Bongzilla.

Bongzilla was too screamy for me when I last listened to them, but they'd also started to grow on me.  I'm pretty sure I could enjoy them right now.
