I knew the answer a few minutes ago, but now I can't remember.

What were we talking about???

Oh yeah, I want a hot fudge cake.



(sorry...just reminiscing from my college days back in the '70's)

Sounds like a gnarly fuzz (perhaps a Way Huge Swollen Pickle or Pork Loin) and a phaser on a slow setting. Also, the combination of song title and your user name made me chuckle. Best of luck necro.

Al used huge amps and cabs with a Boss DS-1, maybe a DOD 250 too. He used a Mu-tron too.
He started using some other effects after Sleep.

[NKUSigEp]

Matamp amps and cabs, Rickenbacker, not totally sure about the pedals but I've heard the DOD 250 and the Boss DS-1 mentioned before...as the previous poster said.

[Ron Now]

Yup, find yourself an old DS-1 and an old DOD 250 and those there will nail the tone.

Now learning to riff like Al well that is a whole other thing.

[DeliriumTremens]

DS1 is more common than I realized for slow, sludgy, doomy stuff. Pete Steele from Type O Negative used one too
