Sleepbomb is a San Francisco-based psychedelic doom project focused on full, original scores for genre films including the German Expressionist silent masterpieces - The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu and Metropolis. Historically a live experience, Sleepbomb has performed their scores across the West coast of the US since 2003 and now has set their sights on expanding to the East coast and the world for 2025. Subtitled "Excerpts from their score for George Romero's 1968 Night of the Living Dead" and based on their full-length score for the film, The Sleeping Dead is an epic serving of filmic doom. Starting with the drum parts fully synchronized with the cinematic imagery, during the recording process each track was pared down to the essential character of each scene from the most influential zombie film of them all. Unlike The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, we knew that the final product would not be a fully synchronized score due to rights issues and the large amount of dialogue in the film.' states Sleepbomb's Tim Gotch. 'This meant that we were able to edit down some of the longer sections into a "song" format and really focus on the feel of the scenes for The Sleeping Dead record itself rather than retaining the full length of tracks just for timing requirements. Recorded, mixed and mastered at Earhammer Studios by Greg Wilkinson (High on Fire, Autopsy), The Sleeping Dead shows Sleepbomb in a heavy, focused mood. For fans of: Godspeed You!
