The awesome power of Om

Turn up your speakers to maximum and revel in the awesome power of Om, the bass-and-drums rhythm section from now-defunct doom juggernaut Sleep.

A few weeks ago I was playing along to it and had a most remarkable experience which I won't go into here.  Ever since, I cannot get this song out of my head, it has been playing constantly in the background of both my waking and dreaming life for weeks now.

And when I plug in my bass into a distortion pedal and then into my old Traynor YBA-4 to jam out on it, we shake the foundations of the house playing along.  One of the most massive, crushing and satisfying bass riffs ever; who needs guitar solos?
