Sleep was a stoner doom metal band from San Jose, California. Active during the 1990s, Sleep earned much critical and record label attention from early in their career. Critic Ed Rivadavia describes them as "perhaps the ultimate stoner rock band"[1] and notes they exerted a strong influence on heavy metal in the '90s. However, squabbles with their record company had contributed to Sleep's breakup by the end of the decade.
