After years of just not vibing with the Rock the radio/mainstream would put out, I think I speak for many when I say Sleep Token is that sound so many of us have been waiting and searching for, if that makes sense. ☺️✌️
As a music instructor, I feel you 100%. I’ve learned and listened to everything… from the most extreme and technical metal to the most subtle jazz… and I had given up on finding anything fresh that didn’t seem like unoriginal regurgitated ideas. I straight up stopped pursuing anything new cause it just brought monotonous letdown. Then someone showed me Sleep Token and they are literally everything I’ve ever wanted from a band… the heavy 8 string guitars, the next level drumming, the esoteric yet emotional lyrics, the musical twists and turns, the blending of any genre they desire, and the otherworldly songwriting. They restored my hope in music.
Worship! This band revitalized my love for music and watching new people experience it is so fulfilling. If you enjoyed the blending of genres, just wait. By the time you get to album 3, you'll think they can't do anything else different...then they do.
I’m new to Sleep Token and right now I’m absolutely hooked on their track ‘The Apparition’ from the album Take Me Back to Eden. It’s full of bangers you should take a listen to
This one is definitely a stand-out track! It was instantly one of my favorites, and is still a great example of II putting on an absolute CLINIC on those drums! Lol Can't wait for more reactions! Worship
If you think this song is like 3-in-1 just wait haha, so many surprises to come! :D Some reactors praise the band but drop them after 2-3 songs and it makes me sad, so I'm grateful to be alongside you as you go through your Sleep Token journey. Worship ❤ & can't wait for 'Take Aim' next! A very underrated song but one of my most played.
I figured it out. With all respect, you both turn into little girls in your eyes. Its because your brain receives music like a gift. Like a kid getting a birthday present. Sweet energy. Glad you appreciate ST
I got recommended you guys by the all mighty algorithm after I started my journey down the rabbit hole that is sleep token and I am now going to stay up all night to binge watch your sleep token content. This band has effected me like no other in my 48 years on the planet and its such a joy watching your expressions match mine the first time I heard each song! Please, please keep going all the way until the beauty that is Euclid. Liked and subscribed, worship!
Dallas, the smile on your face says it all....and Andrea has the right idea, just close your eyes and go with it 😊. Course then you wouldn't see the lyrics which are a vital part of the journey. Vessel is so talented and his lyrics are unparalleled. Enjoyed seeing y'all fall more in love with them. They truly are amazing. As for II, he knows just when to add the best "fills" (The beats to fill in the "space"). Together they have made some of the most eclectic but awesome 😎 music....no, no they make ART! They are true artists. Can't wait to see them on the 6th!! Worship ❤
You guys are amazing, and I love the dissection of each song. I pay so much attention to the drums too (and have no idea what's going on) but love his sound. You should watch the drumeo video for sure
Love watching your reactions, so wholesome. I find myself vibing along with you guys and that ending is soooo good. You definitely need to check out ii on Drumeo!! His skills are insane!! 🤯
Worship ladies ....love it. I laughed when Andrea was already crying before the song lol. She kept it together tho. ST brings sooooo much joy to me and others.
seeing you guys react to these songs makes me so happy! ive heard them all a hundred times and seeing you guys enjoy it as much as i do is just perfect!
Enjoyed your reactions! This band is one of 2 groups that i cant help watch massive amounts of reactions too. My favorite thing is to see someone enjoy something i love. Especially if its new!! The other band or person is NF btw. There is something collective about talent and expertise, that seeing it acted out is exciting and seeing others recognize that same talent is also very satisfying....even though it has nothing to do with us hahahaha. Cant wait for future videos!!!
I feel like I should comment this....and I'll be very vague here because the full story gives clues to Vessel's identity. The Sleep Deity is a metaphor and works on that level if you want. But the literal meaning of these three albums is much deeper. Vessel was in a specific toxic relationship with his musical partner prior to Sleep Token. The disintegration of this relationship left him devastated. The songs are "offerings to Sleep"...but they are really all about the stages of grief he moved through coming to terms with the end of this relationship: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. All three albums primarily deal with this and the songs (offerings) fall somewhere on this sliding scale. Sundowning seems particularly filled with denial and anger, but that is just my opinion. Again, I was really vague ....art has meaning beyond the literal and you are welcome to enjoy it however you would like. I just thought I would add context while respecting the anonymity of Vessel and his former partner. Have you ever loved someone so much, that their absence made you hide your identity, put on a mask, record three full albums of heartbreaking songs, liken it to worshiping an ancient deity, and become an international rock star just to deal with it?
I have ALWAYS said this about them....the lore is a cool thing n all....but I feel these are songs about someone in his life and not some deity....but the addition of this deity concept helps fuel the mystique for sure
I found it best if you just enjoy the music. Yes there is a lot of depth and meaning to everything, including when you focus on the lore and the deity of sleep. At the end of the day, the lyrical genius of Vessel and how amazing II is with drumming it’s just MAGICAL This band is more than anyone deserves, they are truly out of this world, and as you go down the albums and this journey, your love for them will only grow more #Worship
I was wanting to know if you got me and my mother Dallas our list of suggestions for our favorite symphonic metal band from Finland wintersun. We haven't gotten a reply yet. But here's that list again first is wintersun sons of winter and stars 1.5 official lyric video. Then next is wintersun time live rehearsal video at Sonic pump studios in Helsinki Finland. After that is wintersun land of snow and sorrow live rehearsal video. And as always thank you DNA for your great reactions . My mom Dallas and me wintersun Alex. ❤
You get a check out Imminence and they are kind of like sleep token but better but that’s just in my opinion. Imminence is from Sweden and the lead singer. Eddie Berg actually plays violin while he is singing and screaming. Should really check them out with the song Continuum.

Thank you commenting and watching! They are just so good! We can’t wait to get further into the journey. -Andrea
Take Aim is soooo underrated!
Seeing yours girl's reaction to the breakdown at the end with a big smile makes me smile even more, like "YES! THEY GET IT! "

This band is the soundtrack of my life.
I haven't heard a song by Sleep Token that I don't like. I loved watching you two react to this! 😊💛
You guys are amazing, and I love the dissection of each song. I pay so much attention to the drums too (and have no idea what's going on) but love his sound. You should watch the drumeo video for sure
Y'all officially became Sleep Token girlies!

Ladies you need to do Arch Enemy "Handshake With Hell" and Halestorm "I am the Fire" two really strong female vocalists.

These are all concept albums, listening to them in order by song first to last will unravel a story. Worship.

You two are so damned cute. Thank you.
