BiographySleeper x were originally formed in late 2001 by James Crossland (vocals) and Wade Taylor (guitar). In late 2002 they were joined by Chris Butler (drums) and Crossland's long time friend Garth Taylor (bass).[1] In 2004 the band supported the Dillinger Escape Plan and in May that year signed to local Perth independent record label Cartel Music[2] Sleeper X then travelled to Melbourne for the V5 Festival. In May 2005 the band released their debut EP, Everything You Know Is Wrong,[2][3] this was followed by a second EP, Music For The Esteemed Gentleman in March 2006. The band parted ways with the Cartel Music label in March 2006, forming their own label, On The Blob Records, later changed to Panty Liner Records, then Red Guard Records. The Migrations and Mnemonics (a split EP with Melbourne-based jazzcore act Errata),[4][5] recorded in Taylor's studio "The Great Brain" and mastered at Errata's House of Fuboobadore in Melbourne, is the first release for the label. Though active in the Australian metal scene, the band's penchant for noise-making, irreverent live performances[6] (including the practice of Freemasonic rituals onstage) and unconventional instrumentation has earned them a reputation for innovation and spontaneity within avant-garde musical circles. The band is currently in pre-production for its debut full-length album, The Long March DiscographyEPs
