Well I could sleep forever
But it's of her I dream
If I could sleep forever
I could forget about everything
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever

RP is great. You guys crack me up. |

| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Apr 03, 2013 - 15:53 This album is definitely their opus work - outstanding! Must own if you like or want to get into DHs |

I'm enjoying them too! |

| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Jan 11, 2012 - 15:51 Cool transition from L. Williams - Are You Down.....very niiiice! This song is sublime! |
| merkin_muffley (Down the rabbit hole.....) | Posted: Oct 15, 2011 - 06:19 This album reminds of a month long trip travelling the West Coast. When i got to Portland there were posters advertising a gig in a couple of days time. I extended my stay in Portland just to see them. Only really knew them from Bohemian Like You but they were so good. From them i then got into James Town Massacre (past group of some members) which i don't think we will hear on RP. |

| xkolibuul (Chuckanut sandstone) | Posted: Jan 04, 2011 - 22:40 No, hypnotic as in delicious. Warhols are one of my fave heavy-on-the-production bands. |
| handwaver | Posted: Dec 04, 2010 - 07:41 Hypnotic- If by hypnotic, you mean stupefyingly boring! Snoozerama! |

I have it on my iPod and did so a couple of nights ago on the way home. When you're taking a subway to a bus to a park'n'ride, making the quotidian transition from urbs to suburbs, a vast work like Thirteen Tales... grounds you in a way that it anneals you to the numbing effect of long, dreary, managed commutes. Truth be told, virtually any good rock'n'roll can do that, but Thirteen Tales... is especially effective. |

| jaydeman (Livermore, CA) | Posted: Jun 21, 2010 - 15:15 Nice. I especially appreciate that they didn't use the evil autotune on the "arpeggiated" vocal outro. Being largely human myself, I enjoy listening to humans sing. On this point I find my opinion differing from that of the borg. |
| rythmbaby (Paris, France!!!) | Posted: Jun 21, 2010 - 15:04 love the Dandy Warhols so much... Always capable of reinventing themselves. This song is to turn you stone! Bliss... |

There are worlds, lightyears and milky-ways between the great-great "Warhols" and those old men called "Dummies". Sufjan Stevens - yes, I can subscribe to this! The song "SLEEP" is rather simple, true, but has certain magical powers. What was Jonny Depp smoking as Sherlock Holmes...? That is the inviroment this song was made in (I guess) and should be heard in - I say! Sleeeeeeep.... STINGRAY |
