Jason Roeder is the drummer of the Oakland-based metal bands Neurosis and Sleep.

He played in the hardcore punk band Violent Coercion with Scott Kelly and Dave Edwardson before the trio formed Neurosis in 1985.

"[4] In 2025 Jason Roeder announced he was no longer a member of the band Sleep and had been "unceremoniously fired over the phone".

Roeder plays on kits with only a single rack and floor tom since he was 12 years old since the basic set-up forces more creativity.
