While it hasn't been explicitly stated, there's been a 99.9% chance that Sleep is currently in the studio with a big ol' plate of weed. Now Sleep has come out and explicitly stated that it's in the studio, though through its website, and the whole message is written in morse code.
Here's the entire transmission in both morse code and in a format most of you can understand – English.

INITIALIZE NEW TRANSMISSION 2017 CE SLEEP NEARING COMPLETION OF NEW ALBUM ENGINEERING ACCOMPLICE: NOAH LANDIS LOCATION: 37.8044 N, 122.2711 W RELEASE DATE: UNDETERMINED RECORD LABEL: UNDETERMINED
Noah Landis being Neurosis's keyboardist of 22 years, and MetalSucks points out that the coordinates are oddly in the middle of the street near a Rite Aid in Oakland, CA. Given that Southern Lord sells both Dopesmoker and "The Clarity," I thought for sure the label would be releasing the album… but maybe not?
