    Not sure of the etiquette of commenting so long after this reaction was published but here I am.
    I just wanted to show my appreciation for referencing the song lyrics here. You are the only one I’ve seen discuss them when reacting to this particular song.
    They are an integral part of the song and story of the album as a whole.
    Looking forward to more Sleep Token reactions.

      Hey, I appreciate it! I’ve since become obsessed with Sleep Token! Can’t wait for the new album!

    Since you lost the original reaction, I hope you do a first time reaction to Sleep Token Hypnosis and Higher.

    I don't know if you ever do full album reactions but with this band I would highly recommend listening to both of their albums fully. almost every song is amazing, each song isn't necessarily worth its own video but together on the albums they flow really nicely. I think this band is really good at putting an album together. but the top songs I would definitely recommend checking out are Alkaline, Hynosis, Atlantic, Telomeres, Dark Signs, The Night Does Not Belong To God, and Blood Sport (from the room below). I am just glad to see more people listening to this band they deserve way more recognition than they have

    First time I heard this one, completely got lost in it, and sat on my bed replaying it maybe 5 or 6 times. Drowning us such an accurate take

  • @trzigweid

    If they are hypnotic to you, then you definitely need to listen to hypnosis.

      Also, this whole album is all about the physical manifestation of the sinking feeling of depression, and they nailed it so hard. Coincidentally this is the 2nd to last track on the album, so it's actually close to the bottom, and not so floatie, but I get how the beginning of the song feels that way.

    no one has reacted to give.

    Also with what you were saying with people don't pay attention to lyrics and artists don't write good lyrics anymore, Sleep Token has done a cover of Outkast's Hey Ya! and it really puts the lyrics in perspective but because the original song is upbeat and happy nobody pays attention to the lyrics

    • @garyofalltrades
      @garyofalltrades  2 роки тому +2

      Exactly! Put a “good beat” behind any lyrics and people will just sing along.

    So fun to see someone discover Sleep Token! I love your deeper dive into the lyrics, I always wish that reactors would pay more attention to the lyrics. Vessel's lyrics are always very poetic. My favorite lyric in this song is "Basking in the solace of regret," because we all do that! We wrap that sadness around us like a warm blanket. I'll echo what a couple of other commenters have said - I'd love to see you react to Sleep Token's Blood Sport, from The Room Below. There are two versions of that song, make sure you're watching the From The Room Below version. Worship!

  • @noneya3292

    You need to listen to their version of "is it really you" by Loathe, it's so beautiful.. actually if you haven't even heard of the band Loathe look up their version first.

  • @Smithysmithin

    You hear the synth at the end of the second verse before the big explosion? That is actually a call back to a single by them released in between their first album, and the album this song is on. And it adds a nice feeling to it.
    If you're looking for more, you could check the single out, the name is Jaws. It's more akin to The Offering in terms of structure. But hearing the synth adds another layer, everything is intertwined together.
    I'd also say Higher is a good track for reaction. But if you want to hear something different from them to understand the intricacies of the band, and their variation of sound, I'd recommend Distraction or also Blood Sport (from the room below) version as it's just Vessel and the piano.

    A lot of people have theorized he was Sam Smith or the guy from Bastille yea haha.

  • @adambt6859

    Sleep Token is amazing! Alkaline, Atlantic, Hypnosis and Higher are some more amazing songs. Really any sleep token song is good though. Their collab with Loathe was great as well.

  • @ptbempire

  • @collierpeoples1918
    @collierpeoples1918 2 роки тому +1

    I love the outro as well. The riff and synth has so much power and emotion! I'm glad you've checked this song out! This band really traps you in their sound!

    I’m so happy that Ned Stark is listening to my favourite band. But if it hasn’t been said enough, listen to higher and even some of their earlier stuff like when the bough breaks or Jericho. Honestly one of the best bands out there

    • @garyofalltrades
      @garyofalltrades  2 роки тому

      Haha, Ned Stark! Never been compared to Sean Bean before, but I’ll take it!
