    I haven't been excited about a new(ish) band for years, but Sleep Token have just become everything i love to hear in music; and theyre so tight live too. They give so much in their performances, they're concerts are like spiritual experiences. Havent had that from music since Tool.

    Take what I call the Sleep Token Challenge:
    Begin from the start of the first studio album and I challenge you to find a song you don’t like from the whole of their 3 albums to date.
    It’s not an easy challenge 😅

    You're going to love this band.
    The piano, drums, guitar, synth, bass,...
    The little cluttering of plates and cuttlery in the background during the piano solo, the panning in the background,...
    Many, many songs by ST have a whole lot to find out and decipher.
    If you're up for the whole journey I'd appreciate to go from the very beginning in chronological order both EP's, singles and all three albums.
    Oh and the studio versions are mainly played by Vessel(all except drums), II recording drums

    YT algorithm blessed me with your video today. Super excited to hear these tracks isolated and see your reactions. You've got a new sub. Also, as most people would (and probably are) recommend, start at the beginning and listen in order, if you dont want to start with the EPs, at least start with Sundowning. WHATEVER YOU DO, FOR THE LOVE OF SLEEP TOKEN, YOU MUST SAVE EUCLID FOR THE END! Looking forward to your journey. Worship 🖤

    • @CardiBeaa

    Vessel is *always* this good lyrically. He writes the majority of the band's lyrics, but some are co-written with II (2), their drummer. As some other commenters have said, please do start from the very beginning, with their EPs "One" and "Two", then the albums sequentially, ("Sundowning", "This Place Will Become Your Tomb" and "Take Me Back To Eden" in this order). They have also made a few cover versions that you may want to look at as well as well as a couple of stand alone tracks, but it's up to you if you want to listen to those as well. In my own opinion they're all worth it, but then I'm very biased because they haven't created a duff track yet to my ears. Enjoy your journey, don't forget to take snacks for along the way.

    Congratulations on finding them! They'll change your life. Vessel is a genius. And I second what someone said about pulling up the lyrics!

  • @LameTurmeric

  • @marklewis7732
    @marklewis7732 22 дні тому +12

    I would say start from at the least the first album as they play as a trilogy telling the story about a toxic relationship between Vessel (the lead singer) and the deity Sleep. Whatever you do please do not listen to Euclid until the very end as to here that song without the context of what came before really takes away from the song. Don't get me wrong Euclid is still an amazing song just as a one off but the emotion you will feel if you leave it until the end will truly blow you away. The EP's are a great listen but could be considered more of a bonus listen once you have finished the core trilogy. If you only wanted to react to a few songs I'd say Take me Back to Eden, Ascenionism, Chokehold, Rain, Atlantic, The Love you Want, Higher, Alkaline, Dark Signs, Hypnosis, Blood Sport (from the room below version) and the Offering are all great choices. Here for the ride whichever route you choose. Worship!

    • @CardiBeaa

    Yup, it’s only Vessel (singer, songwriter, piano, keys, bass and guitar) and II (drummer) who do the album recordings.
    Definitely start at beginning with their EPs One and Two, then their 3 albums Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb and Take Me Back to Eden.

    I have to join the majority & say start from Sundowning & make your way through the three full albums. There are so many lyrical “Easter eggs”, if you will, as you progress through. Also just hearing how they have grown & expanded their sound is a real treat. How ever you choose to do it I’m here for it. I loved the breakdown. Worship 🖤

    Like everyone will tell you here there’s an order to the albums that will make it even more special! At least listen to The Night Does Not Belong to God > Euclid and/or Chokehold > Take me back to Eden in this order please please pleaseeeee!
    And if you ever going to reach to Vore please do the live version there’s a very specific live one that has insane runs by Vessel that are not on the album track
    Can’t wait to see more videos about ST

    Your life is about to be better, going down this rabbit hole. I’ve done this with several reactors, and if I could choose a way to go on the journey again, I would probably save the songs that you haven’t heard on TMBTE, and start at the first EPs, 1 & 2 I believe, do the first couple full-lengths, and finish it up with the remaining TMBTE songs. That’s just me, of course.

    4:55 “I’m done fighting off change, no wonder my arms are still swinging” I understand this to mean he’s tired of change, evolution maybe, going back to early man with the long arms long, still swinging (homo-somebody, excuse me I mean no disrespect, just don’t know the word). So he wants to revert back to simpler times. Damn that was a metaphor! lol😊
