Introducing Vault Package #39 - SLEEP LIVE AT THIRD MAN RECORDS
One of the biggest stories in rock music this past year was the unexpected return of Sleep with the surprise April 20th release of their new record The Sciences on Third Man Records.
As lifelong fans of the band (and OM, and High on Fire, and Neurosis...) we were nothing if not honored to be the label that released their first album in nearly 20 years. This record not only cemented the band's legacy but built upon it by pulling off the rarest of returns. It was insanely good. Not only were they here, but they were better than ever. The Sciences is spiritual, speculative, messianic and heavy as all hell. Rampant touring ensued, and if you have seen them live this past year, then you know there are among the most powerful bands working today.
Just last month, on December 12th, Sleep brought the roadshow to the Third Man headquarters in Nashville and recorded over 2 hours of career-defining material to a live audience using our direct-to-acetate / audio mixed and mastered in real-time system. Seven, count them, seven lacquer cuts later we are prepared and excited to announce that a QUADRUPLE Sleep live album of songs spanning 26 years of their career is our next Vault package. Proceed the Weedian...
The set will be presented on 4 different colored vinyl (purple, orange, blue, green), each in their own individual jacket all housed in a sturdy slipcase. A reproduction of the poster from the show, and a mystery Sleep / TMR mission patch completes your set.
Sign up HERE before Jan 31st or miss out... forever. We estimate that packages will begin shipping in March.

Where is the 2019 Challenge Coin?
Sounds like no one here like heavy blues anymore.
I’ve been a vault member since day one..and this is a dream package. As soon as I heard they recorded the set, I hoped it would become a Vault pack. This is absolutely the most exciting vault package yet! I flew down to SF for the 3 New Years shows…and needless to say it makes me even more excited for this now.
Now I’m just hoping that the record booth recording gets a release….
Awesome, and more than enough reason to subscribe.
I listened to this band when TMR re-released a couple of their albums recently and I just could not get into them. Sounded like, well….. noise.
Um…who? Wha?
Not since Captain Beefheart has a vault been so exciting, well played!
A,,,,,well yeah….this will do!
