This is a no-brainer again:
I've recently listened to Dopesmoke by Sleep and didn't like it and the same goes for this album by Sleep: this album is completely unidimensional and just boring sludge without any subtlety. If it's Sabbath then ts Bloody Bad Sabbath.
Which is completely the opposite for this Kyuss album which is about the quintessence of good stoner rock: it's heavy and it's slow but there is also some musicality and songwriter craftmanship in it. I like all their albums and this was a good start for Josh Homme.
As I was going for the hard side I also listened to Fear Of The Dark which I didn't own and hadn't listened to completely. I'm a fan of Iron Maiden and this is one of their best so I couldn't go wrong with this one which contains and the title song and Afraid To Shoot Strangers.

Wow. I'm completely flabbergasted that someone could love that Kyuss album so much and then completely dislike Sleep. But, I think I get too. Kyuss' DNA is principally really good & heavy 70s Hard rock whereas Sleep takes an element of Black Sabbath and concentrates into some of the sludgiest & heaviest Doom released at the time. Perhaps what you don't like about them - what you call "unidimensional" - is exactly what makes them so amazing. And what made this a classic of the genre. [First added to this chart: 04/19/2022]
