Submit to Desire was the second full-length LP by Sleep Chamber. The lineup on this recording was John Zewizz, Darline Victor, Michael Moynihan, Richard Geller, and Chris Means.

Sleep Chamber is an American industrial band fronted by John Zewizz. The band is known for using S&M, bondage and magic imagery on their artwork, during their performances, and within their lyrics. Formed in 1981 by high school friends Zewizz, Eugene Difrancisco, and Phil Brosseau, over the years the Sleep Chamber lineup has changed many times with Zewizz being the sole permanent member. Previous members of Sleep Chamber have included Thomas Thorn, Michael Moynihan, Jonathan Briley and Elaine Walker. Since the beginning, Zewizz has stated that the constant lineup changes are because Sleep Chamber is not a "band", but rather a "concept".

John Zewizz is an American industrial music performer. Since the late 1970s Zewizz has recorded hundreds of cassettes, LPs, vinyl, and CD releases. He has also worked as a video director, magazine publisher, and record label owner (Inner-X-Musick).

Each side represented a different "mood", with side A (recorded at Newbury Sound Studio) representing Sleep Chamber's song-structured material, and side B (recorded on various radio broadcasts) containing more ambient music. The complete LP was mastered at Ville Platte. The album was pressed in the US by Inner-X-Musick with catalog number XXX-LP-05.

In psychology, a mood is an emotional state. In contrast to emotions, feelings, or affects, moods are less specific, less intense and less likely to be provoked or instantiated by a particular stimulus or event. Moods are typically described as having either a positive or negative valence. In other words, people usually talk about being in a good mood or a bad mood.
