Asbestosdeath was an American doom metal band from San Jose, California, the precursor to the highly influential band Sleep.
History
Asbestosdeath started life in the late 1980s[1] as a trio consisting of Al Cisneros on bass, Chris Hakius on drums, and Tom Choi on guitar.[2] Matt Pike later joined as a second guitarist. They recorded two 7"s: their first (Unclean, 1989)[1] was self-released (Asbestos Records) and a second 7" (Dejection, 1990) was released later that year by Profane Existence.[3][4] Choi left Asbestosdeath to form Noothgrush after the release of the second 7".[5] The band recruited Justin Marler to replace Choi and changed their name to Sleep.[5][6]
In 2007, Southern Lord Records reissued Asbestosdeath's two 7"s on CD and 10" vinyl.[7] The four songs on the album comprise the entirety of Asbestosdeath's recordings.[8][9]
