Sleep is cool, but definitely electric wizard. Aside from time to die, i still semi regularly listen to most of their albums. I have to be in the mood to listen to sleep on the other hand.

Sleep was better live, but Electric Wizard enjoys a decided edge on record simply because they’re released far more of them. Holy Mountain and Dopesmoker hold their own with Dopethrone and Come My Fantatics though… I could never choose between them. Fortunately, no one has to!

I don’t think the bands are all that comparable. They’re both crucial to the development of stoner doom but to me they represent different things entirely. Sleep has never tried to be dark or grim in a heavy handed way like Electric Wizard. Not that electric wizard is worse for that by any means.

NEEEEERRRRRRRRDDDDDD also Electric Wizard > Shleep yadigg
Payton Powell

Exactly, to me Sleep (especially as they slowly progress) is representative of the ultra-slow, ultra-heavy, bass driven almost trance like aspects of stoner/doom. Their hypnotic repetitive sound paired with almost spiritually Abrahamic influenced lyrics sets them apart.
Electric Wizard, to me, is more of a direct descendant of the dark, blues rock oriented work of Sabbath. Both have influenced countless other bands in different ways and both have been crucial in the formation of the genre.

It’s like asking if I prefer my hands or my feet.
They both have their own merits and have influenced the genre in different ways. I refuse to choose.

April 21, 2017 at 8:10 am
I love em too but it is what it is (i actually stopped caring about new tunes from them when i heard the clarity because that song, to me, is just continuing dopesmoker and i was like meh, i’ll just listen to dopesmoker)
Rip Tokeler
April 21, 2017 at 8:11 am
I also tend to only listen to dopesmoker on 45, its a lot better in my opinion. The drums sound awesome.

Rip Tokeler
April 21, 2017 at 3:28 pm
True, i actually stopped paying attention to them a few years ago. Every new album i’ll hear a track say “that sounds just like *insert previous wizard song*” to myself and that will be that
