Third Man Records has announced the forthcoming 12-inch vinyl release and pre-order period for SLEEP‘s sunken treasure of doom, “Leagues Beneath”. On May 23, the California stoner rock band surprised its legions of freshly emerged-from-hibernation fans for the second time this year, following the April release of “The Sciences” with a nearly 17-minute single of bonus, deep sea sludge as part of Adult Swim‘s ongoing “Singles Program.”

The song is a testament to what has made “The Sciences” such a success: bottomless tone, spacetime-melting riffs and an unparalleled aural experience from start to finish. “Leagues Beneath”, available now for pre-order on black vinyl, features the full 17-minute hadal plunge on the A-side, with a tentacled aquanaut nightmare etching on the B-side.

The black vinyl 12-inch is officially available at record stores worldwide next Friday, August 24 with select stores (including Third Man Records‘ Nashville and Detroit storefronts the following day) carrying the very limited aquamarine special edition (also featuring B-side etching). Contact your favorite local, independent record store for availability, or lineup at Third Man the morning of Saturday, August 25 to purchase (while supplies last).
