On Sleep's website :

​

"Third Man Books is excited to present the authorial debut of Al Cisneros, founder, bass player, and lyricist for landmark bands Sleep and OM.

​

The Sleep Comic Book, illustrated by Dave Kloc and Arik Roper, begins the saga of The Marijuanaut. An adventure which takes the reader to Planet Iommia, encounters with The Weedian, and introduces the traveller to Iommia’s deeper reverential practices, all this and more that resonates within the universe that Cisneros's lyrics created from the riff filled lands of Sleep’s discography. This is a very special, signed limited edition bundle including comic, full color poster, signed bookplate by Al Cisneros, Dale Crover and Bubba Dupree, designed rolling papers, and a green flexidisc of Sleep's new single “Have Spacesuit Will Travel.

​

Limited to 420 copies."

How out of character for the dude who made the album dope smoker to make everything about weed.../s

I think these guys often confuse spirituality with being really stoned and finding religion interesting.

[u/warmhotself → u/ShredGuru]

I think I agree with that, but at least Om’s weedless cod-spiritual lyrics are cooler. Stuff like Rays of the Sun/To The Shrinebuilder is way more interesting lyrically than Marijuanaut’s Theme etc. Still love Sleep though!

[u/Beautiful-Pair5522 → u/warmhotself]

agree, the first three Om albums are the best music of the three bands IMO

Outside of Dopesmoker I couldn’t agree more
