In the late '80s, before the mighty formation of Sleep: Al Cisneros (Bass/Vocals), Chris Hakius, and Matt Pike (Guitar) played together along with Thomas Choi (Guitar) in Asbestosdeath. Abestosdeath is the roots of the oak that branched into the massive creation of not only Sleep but of course Om (Al and Chris), High on Fire (Matt) and Noothgrush/It Is I/Operator Generator (Thomas Choi). Asbestosdeath was short-lived and only existed long enough to record 4 songs that were released on 2 separate 7"s. Unclean was released by the band. The other, Dejection, was released by Profane Existence.

In 2007, Southern Lord reissued Asbestosdeath's two 7"s on CD and 10" vinyl.
