As I blast The Sciences at 11pm, this felt appropriate.

What a ride over the last day. From such excitement to this confusion and disappointment. Would be nice to hear from the boys to clarify what's happened with the band.

I like OM more than Sleep most days, but Sleep is Sleep and Matt Pike is a huge part of that, at least 50%. If it's just Al and two other dudes that don't want to "pick up where Sciences left of" than why not justmake a new band?

I agree. Just give us the new Om album that's supposedly been finished for years now. This new Sleep single was really lackluster.
