Sleep Now With Your Fish

by Black Leather Birds

supported by

Egor Letov Finally, something worth in the landscape of experimental rock. Imagine aggro parts of Helmet roided up with industrial influences and Mr Bungles approach of melting genre boundaries.

Hulk Rogan An exquisite take on 90’s rock heritage with abundance of avangardism in the vein of Polkadot Cadaver. Tasty!

Ulya23 Crunchy fuzzy spawn of unholy noiserock. The profound heaviness mixes with raw production. Overall Sleep Now With Your Fish never stops to surprise until it’s over.
