Sleep Theory August 16-17, 2025

Nerd
Cullen Moore from Sleep Theory is a “nerd.” That’s his word. Just because they play Lord of the Rings, Star Wars or Dragon Ball Z on a muted TV in the studio while recording justifies being a nerd? Maybe. Let’s just say it’s good for motivation obviously. Their latest album Afterglow was released May 16, 2025. It is packed with hard rock with big melodies. Cullen says, “whether you’re a rocker or more melodic, you’ll find something to latch onto.”

Static
Static is already a top-5 single on the Rock 30 for Sleep Theory. It could be their second number one song from the album Afterglow. Cullen said, “I’m here to have fun. And a lot of people get tilted about the auto-tune and I think it’s the funniest thing. And it’s kind of like me poking at people. Because if you hate it that much, we’re just going to crank it you know (laughing).”
Nine Inch Nails
If you’re a Nine Inch Nails fan, you’ll be happy to know their song As Alive As You Need Me To Be is the highest charting song this week on the LA Lloyd Rock 30. Trent Reznor, vocalist released it as the lead single from the Tron: Ares soundtrack. This one looks destined to go all the way to the top.
I came across a book you may be interested in titled “Nine Inch Nails: Bobcat Books Presents the Story of.” It came out in 2008 but if you’re interested in Trent Reznor’s life and music in detail, this is a good find. #sponsored.
