| | Team Sleep (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | The guitar player and one of three founding members of Sacramentoâs Team Sleep -- the loose-knit, electronic-glitch-meets-grimy-guitars project that counts also Deftones vocalist Chino Moreno and turntablist DJ Crook among its founders -- is the type of person who seems extremely at ease in his own flesh, conveying an almost Zen-like calm with his words. |
 | | And while many listeners may be looking for a reworked version of the Deftones, Team Sleepâs playlist is a far cry from the aggressive, de-tuned guitars and metal overtones that fans of the previous band are accustomed to. |
 | | Team Sleep took its first steps toward becoming a full-fledged band in May 2001 when Wilkinson, Moreno and Crook, along with the addition of Hellaâs Zach Hill on drums and Tinfed bass player Rick Verret, began recording with veteran Seattle-based producer Terry Date. |
