Why Are You Doing This? Sleep

But wait, where's the camel really going?

Oh. So when an album comes your way that's called Dopesmoker, by a band called Sleep, you should know better than to assume it's going to be party jams of some sort. Right? No. When my eyeballs are fed the following things:

1) An album cover showing stoned demon camels being led on a hot and dusty journey through period blood, in search of marijuana cigarettes.

2) The word "dope."

I'm going to be mentally smelling the stench of brand new polo shirts, hemp rope sandals, and dick cheese. But fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice, shame on Sleep for making an album that's supposed to be about weed turn out to ACTUALLY be a drone metal album about being bored.

Sleep, a band out of the "Bay Area" (I hate when people say that. Don't lie. You know you live in Oakland or some shit) made an album called Dopesmoker thatonly has two songs on it. The first song is called "Dopesmoker" and is an hour long, and the second song is called "Holy Mountain" and is a live track recorded in San Francisco that's eleven minutes long, but I didn't get to that one because I killed myself about ten minutes into the first song. I'm actually typing on my MacBook from beyond the grave. It's nice here. There's no humidity and my hair will look amazing forrrrrreeeeeevvvvverrrrrrr.
