Al Cisneros is criminally underrated in the world of rock/metal bass. Just so good.

[@ernestoperez4973]

Sleep Is Underrated Band. But Is Band Of Cult!. Legends Of Underground

[@xwarx1000]

Tooo good no need of rating, rating is very band western concept.

The audio quality on this channel is pretty much always a cut above, but goddamn. The mix here is on par with the best concert footage I've seen. Hat's off.

[@GileadMedia]

Scott Evans killed it on the live tracking / mixing

[@USmarinePunk]

Not gonna lie. I was reluctant to watch this because most of the Sleep footage on KZbin sounds like it was recorded on a burner phone.

[@Engel1916]

Agreed. Whoever is in charge of the audio work here should be hired and paid handsomely to mix the coverage of major festivals as their sound always sucks. Every time you see it on TV it sounds like the sound guys mixing the audio for broadcast just gave up after 20 minutes.

[@gettinnapkins]

agreed. thought the guitar was sittin up a little bit too much, but this is a killer fucking mix

[@BulletmanDoom]

Can't agree more and I'm pleased to hear that my ears still function after 40 years of this type of thing. This is the work of a true genius if I'm not mistaken.

[@TheGrizzlybear456]

[@Ievolovel]

Al's got his voice back and I couldn't be happier. I hope I get to catch you guys again if you come through Nashville. Stay stoned.. stay safe.

[@yamaraskav5362]

Do you know why he lost his voice?

[@KeziahMason]

If I had to guess I’d say it has something to do with years of getting high and trying to scream over a wall of 200 watt bass amps.

[@hyperluminalreality1]

Ampeg SVT amps are rated at 300w into a 4 ohm load. Watch the Mohak Sleep videos for a taste of how heavy his bass is. Watch video 2 which is Sonic Titan. Notice that Al steps on a DOD OD250 overdrive AND a Boss DS-1distortion before launching into Sonic Titan. Heavy. Notice the sustaining bass completely drown out Matt's guitar during the opening riff to the verse section until Al mutes the bass. Bong tokes for the masses!

[@yamaraskav5362]

I think he lost his voice when he took a break doing music...

[@idiosyncraticmushroom3030]

his voice is different but in a nice way I guess. sounds like if pot could sing. I like it.

[@austinconey4913]

One guitar used throughout the entire set, and by the end it doesnt even sound out of tune. The magic of matt pike

[@RunsInTheSkinnyJeans]

Austin Coney i mean its like like hes playing a bunch of crazy fast bends on the high stringers

[@BSIII]

That guitar is probably set up perfectly. Nut, intonation, ect.

[@bobsbigboy_]

He is tho, hes shredding tf out

[@acemechanical275]

It’s like he discovered the phenomenon of tuning between songs or something. (NO Les Paul G string stays in tune for long)

[@thathandleistakentrythisone]

​@acemechanical275 i had that problem, but ever since i switched to wound 3rd it's kept in tune. But my 1st always falls out of tune even with Tuneomatic bridge. It is what it is.

[@mikeg.9238]

@@jacobedward2401 Not so much ugly , but aren't posers. They just go out there in a t-shirt and jeans and kick ass , that's why I am a huge Slayer fan , they never changed from who they were from day one until their last farewell show , which I was lucky to see in the pit. They stayed true to themselves and I respect all bands that do that , I used to be a huge Metallica fan in the 80's and saw them at a small club on the Kill em all tour , but then they sold out in the 90's. Maiden is another band that stayed true to themselves and didn't sell out or dress like chicks in the 80's. Same with the grunge bands in the 90's , they just went out there and played without all the glitz of the hair metal posers...
