in defense of the text on the new cover, this is pretty kick-ass on its own. sharp, simple and very strong. most graphically dynamic part of the design, imo.

It's like tablature only more cryptic.
I also like hearing what Matt Pike said about playing in Sleep vs High on Fire. "I count a lot more when I play Sleep."
How's the remaster? I only have the "legit" release with the burning bush/hemp sweater cover.

I've just ordered the CD + T-shirt + Poster combo. Am tempted to get a vinyl copy for the awesome artwork too.

The remaster sounds pretty fantastic on CD, it's tastefully done. Hope to hear the LP soon.
― A. Begrand, Friday, 11 May 2012 16:17 (twelve years ago) link
gotta say i'm not that into the reissue. it does sound a lot clearer but i think that basically just accentuates matt pike which pushes it into HoF hesher territory as opposed to the plodding doom territory the early mix sits comfortably in.

I only have the CD with the three-headed horse drawing. How am I doing sound/mix-wise?

that list looks like a poll.
looking forward to seeing them twice this month. fuck they are so good live.

I assume you mean HoF, right
― Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 11 May 2012 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
the first "dopesmoker" CD (three headed horse) is a different recording from the original "jerusalem" release. it is also louder and bassier than the original jerusalem release. i think it is not as "clear" in the mid- and high-range as the dopesmoker reissue, but like i said i prefer the original versions (both jerusalem and dopesmoker) to the new one
i think the one you have is actually my favorite jon

I assume Jamie means Sleep ... meaning he's going to ATP and Primavera, the lucky bastard. They *are* so good live...

wait Sleep has reunited?!
― Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 11 May 2012 17:02 (twelve years ago) link
yeah they do from time-to-time. they played a few shows in 2010

Saw them two years ago at Brooklyn Masonic hall. I'm gonna invite a flaming here and say I don't like Al's sheer-rumble live sound. Call me a muso but I can see he's doing a lot of shit and I want to know what it is! Same went for the Shrinebuilder show.
― Hierophantiasis (Jon Lewis), Friday, 11 May 2012 17:05 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, drummer from Neurosis drums on the live line-up. I saw them in, 2010 I guess, when they first started doing the live shows again. Bummed that I'm going to miss them this time. Positively titanic.
― Matt M., Friday, 11 May 2012 17:15 (twelve years ago) link
They absolutely destroyed at Roadburn last month. I'd never seen Sleep in person before, and was floored by their two-hour set.

Ha yeah I see Alan N and myself saying the same thing there, too.

its funny that it was still crappy even when they didn't have soundboard probs

man so i have to admit i'm hearing things in "jerusalem" (vs. dopesmoker) that i never heard before
i guess that's common but this just feels really stark
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 12 May 2012 05:20 (twelve years ago) link
yo am0n i know about the sabians but they haven't put anything out since 2003 afaict? are they still going?
― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 05:35 (twelve years ago) link
hoos you got that in the right order? are you just now going back to jerusalem after hearing the dopesmoker reissue?
― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 05:47 (twelve years ago) link
idk if i have it in the right order or not--i first heard and got to know 'dopesmoker' via a download of the original mix a few years back, and that's the one that i guess is still on my hard drive. i guess i'd never really listened to jeruselam, i thought i had. damn, now i'm gonna have to go get this reissued jeruselam too.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 12 May 2012 06:01 (twelve years ago) link
reissued dopesmoker you mean
― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 06:08 (twelve years ago) link
i think they do this just to fuck with stoned people

yes indeed they're doing our london atp (with Slayer and Melvins and Yob and Wolves In the Throne Room and A Storm Of Light - FUCK) and primavera barcelona. Cannot wait.
― Jamie_ATP, Saturday, 12 May 2012 09:06 (twelve years ago) link
played at a festival w/them in 2010 iirc & they were directly after us and opened right with a crushing Jerusalem/Dopesmoker riff section for about five min damn right I'm bragging, I got to geek out w/Pike & his son backstage afterwards
― cosi fan whitford (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Saturday, 12 May 2012 09:35 (twelve years ago) link
Saw them last week and it was uniformly excellent. No trouble hearing Cisneros either. Dopesmoker and Sonic Titan were the highlights.
Don't miss them if you get the chance.
