Sleep - The Sciences - Vinyl Record 2LP
Sleep surprised everyone on April 20, 2018, dropping The Sciences through Third Man Records with almost no warning. It was the stoner metal legends' first studio album since the epic Dopesmoker sessions, reuniting guitarist Matt Pike (High on Fire) and bassist and vocalist Al Cisneros (Om), now joined by Neurosis drummer Jason Roeder.
The riffs are as massive and slow-rolling as ever. "Marijuanaut's Theme" sets the tone, "Sonic Titan" finally gives a long-running live favorite a proper studio home at over twelve minutes, and "Antarcticans Thawed" stretches past fourteen. "Giza Butler" tips its hat to Black Sabbath's Geezer Butler, while the closing "The Botanist" offers a hazy, almost melodic comedown.
Spread across two LPs in a gatefold jacket, the album gets the room these monumental songs demand. Essential listening for fans of doom, stoner rock and heavy psych, and a reminder of why Sleep remain the high priests of the riff.

Shipping
Orders typically ship within two business days. Media Mail might be budget-friendly, but it travels at a glacial pace and gets little love from the postal service. For faster, smoother delivery, choose USPS Priority or UPS/USPS Ground.
Returns
Unopened returns accepted within 30 days — you cover shipping.
If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.
After 30 days, it’s yours to keep forever.
Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
