It’s true, weed-obsessed slowcore rockers Sleep are back.

It’s been two decades since the band recorded their mammoth Dopesmoker, and even that album sat “officially” unreleased (there was an “official bootleg” in 2003) until 2012, when the fine folks at Southern Lord decided to give it the treatment it had always deserved.

Sadly, the pain of having your magnum opus castrated before it ever reached the general public meant that the band split before it ever saw the light of day, and only recently started performing together again. It was beyond our wildest dreams to expect the trio to record new material however – but thanks to the fine folks at NPR, we can now get a taste of the band’s new jammer entitled ‘The Clarity’ (not to be confused with Zedd’s ‘Clarity’).

It’s like they never went away – riffage that would make Black Sabbath blush and enough marijuana references to keep you horizontal for the entire 10-minute duration. The track might officially be a one-off for Adult Swim’s ongoing Singles Club, but we’re hoping that the band have some more material in store.
