Y’all really came through on this video. Whelp, I guess we are doing more Sleep Token!!
Hell yeah! Hopefully you'll do The Summoning and Take me back to Eden next. Those are good for the algorithm :)
That's why I've sub'd. Bring on the rabbit hole
I'm so stoked! The Offering, The Summoning, Atlantic, Blood Sport, Rain, Alkaline, and Chokehold are my personal favorites, but Ascensionism takes first place. I loved watching your reaction. The ST community will flock to your channel. We love to watch people fall in love with ST the way we all did. Worship. 🙏🏻✨️🖤🔥

Excuse my Indonesian but FUCK YEA
You found the rabbit hole. Time to see how deep it goes. There isn’t a bad song. There isn’t a genre to pinpoint.
Worship!
Yup, and may the lyricism of Vessel guide him.
DYWTYLM is an awful song on all levels. Sounds like an imagine dragons radio push. Sundowning is their best album but this one is solid. I’d argue granite is pretty bad as well. “Are you really okay?” Is just meh. I love ST but let’s not say this album is perfect.
@@sleepycoast363it’s okay to be wrong
rabbit hole goes as far as you willing to go. amazing
“Life is dark. Life is bright. Life is ugly. Life is beautiful. Don’t get lost in genres, they’ll only disorientate you. Music is for everyone.” - Vessel 2017
The Sleep Token fans have spoken…. We want more reactions to this entire album. It’s amazing
Completely agree
I just stumbled onto this page after watching Will/Charismatic voice react to TMBTE - and I'm glad I did. ST deserves every minute of this attention. Worship.
I highly recommend listening to "take me back to eden" aka the best song on the album imo
You really have to…. You will enjoy the emotional and thought provoking message and rollercoaster
Nope, the best song on this album is The Summoning
Yeah I'd Say Summoning #1 Take me back to Eden #2 ascensionism #3 it's just so hard to rank they all technically are #1 for variety of reasons.
The correct answer to which of those three is the best is "whichever you heard last".
@@MrSneakyyGamingI’ve got no clue how to order them but you’ve got my top 3 lineup right there
Also correct lyrics, "synapses snap back in blissful anguish" "tell me you met me in past lives, past lie, past what might be eating me from the inside, darling" "half algorithm, half deity, glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream" ☺️
Yeah IDK why I keep seeing it say glitches in the cold
This band has taken the whole world by storm, and I'm not mad about it. Everything they do is unique and beautiful and very heartfelt, so emotional, and I feel their music all the way down to my bones. Vessel's voice is so warm and comforting, but you can hear every emotion he tries to convey, and it sounds real.
You'll see that Sleep Token fans come through, we like seeing people react to hearing them.
Something you'll find interesting. Vessel (the vocalist) writes and performs everything on the album except the drums. He does the vocals, bass, guitar, keyboard, and samples. The guys a beast.
doesnt he do the production as well? Man is an absolutely talented genius. II is also a beast on the drums
This whole album is an absolute masterpiece.
Jump down the rabbit hole! Sleep token has taken over my life! They are amazing, they have so many different styles and the standouts are definitely the vocalist Vessel and II (2) the drummer ♥️ I suggest the offering, telomeres, the love you want, alkaline, and any of the new album Take Me Back To Eden just to name a few. Love your reactions!
I always saw the "diamonds in the trees pentagrams in the night sky" line as more of a scene descriptor. The diamonds in the trees could be street lights bleeding through the gaps in the leaves and the pentagrams in the night sky are the stars themselves. Coupled with "I can offer you a blacklit paradise," it sounds like he's offering a place of calm and beauty to the person who's the subject of the song.
Congrats on finding the rabbit hole that is sleep token, loved the reaction. The entire discography is some of the greatest music I have ever heard. If you get a chance to see them live absolutely do so.
Your analogy of the diamond in the trees, pentagram in the night sky has blown my mind. I must have listened to this song a good 100 times and never thought of it like that. 👍
These guys got something special. I've been listening to them for about a year and their stuff only gets better with time.
Absolutely. A lot of folks found them from TT/Summoning, and part of me is envious. Imagine listening to Bloodsport/Jaws/Atlantic again for the first time. Worship.
The drummer (II) is one of the best of this time! Absolutely magnificent.
He was incredibly interesting to watch when he did a vid on Drumeo. I’m not a drummer but it was 💯 worth watching!!
😂😂😂 when you said you was only gonna get 200 views I almost died laughing ☠️☠️....the worshippers of Sleep Token is large and growing fast!! .This band has absolutely became what everyone needed in today's music!! Killer vocals and drums and they are not afraid to give us all the eargasms we desire! Only other band to ever consume me was Tool. Is vessel the new Maynard? Sleep Token definitely has some Tool/APC vibes. And we are here for it!
I agree with you, haha
Yea good luck on “finding out who it is” 😂 but fr, I’ve been waiting for what feels like decades for Sleep Token to hit your channel. React to any song you want EXCEPT for Euclid. Not yet. Great reaction as always sir.
Songs to check out from them when starting
-take me back to eden
-rain (some people may not say this one but I've had it on repeat)
-bloodsport (from the room below)
-vore
That covers a decent range of their talent I think at least
Another vote for Blood Sport (from the room below)
Rain and Blood Sport 😩🖤🙏🏻✨️
Rain is TOP tier
Rain , alkaline , vore and the summoning are all masterpiece
This album is a masterpiece front to back. As is their whole discography. Go down the rabbit hole. Worship
Fyi, the vocalist called vessel records everything other than drums, the drummer is vessel ii, they have 2 more members for touring:)
Sleep Token is one of those bands that I have a hard time describing simply due to the fact that there's so many different aspects and nuance to just how their music makes one feel. There is a certain hypnotic tone to almost all of their music that draws the listener in that I've never experienced with any other band.
Definitely a great reaction, and based off of how Sleep Token has been making their rounds, I genuinely hope this reaction "Ascends" to new heights and that we get more Sleep Token Reactions! :D
The title track “Take me back to Eden” has to be next my man
I don’t know if anyone else would recommend this song but Nazareth - Sleep Token is insane. I think you would really like it. I’ve been watching your Chanel for a few months know and I’m so happy your watching Sleep Token.
Never have I ever been so consumed by music. Their music touches my soul in so many different levels, glad you liked it.
Commenting because I loved your reaction and because Sleep Token is my favorite band right now and lastly, to feed the algorithm
You called it on the vocal fry, Dave! Vessel's voice is fantastic, and they mesh styles together really well. I hope this reaction does well -- Sleep Token is riding high on the algorithm right now.
I think the reason why we watch all these reaction videos is to somehow relive the feeling of hearing this for the first time. And your reaction is exactly like I remember it! Heading on to your other Sleep Token reactions. Love this!
This is one of the better reactions to this song IMO. From the expressions on your face, it looked like this song made you fall in love with well made music all over again, while this song has made me shed tears. That's the beauty of great music, and the beauty of Sleep Token.
The entirety of the new album “Take Me Back To Eden” is a banger. Ascensionism is probably my favorite track, but there’s not a bad song on the album imo.
"This video probably won't do well" Sir, this is Sleep Token, Worship.
Sleep token the Summoning is also a very good listen by this band.
100%
A masterpiece but also *great* for the algorithm. New ST fans jump on The Summoning reactions, and for good reason! ✨️
Sleep token reactions are so hot right now 😅
350 views in 2 hours, I think we’re gonna see some more Sleep Token 😜
Lol hell yeah guys we got another one! 😂 welcome to the sleep token fan base! Few starter tips, the band is anonymous, the band was formed when the lead singer named vessel was visited by an ancient diety called "sleep" in a dream, you won't be able to put them in a genre and last but not least all of their fans actively search for reactions on UA-cam because the band was underground until this year essentially lol so for years we've just been shoving this band down our friends throats hoping they enjoy them too so their new rise to the spotlight with their latest album is exciting for the fan base in general. You'll be bombarded with song suggestions to react to but one that sleep token fans tend to love is a reaction to "bloodsport (from the room below)" by them. It's one of the most beautiful songs alot of people have ever heard and it's just vessel singing raw while playing piano.
I feel that "YOU MAKE ME WISH I COULD DISAPPEEEEEEEAR" in my soul EVERY TIME.
Hell yes brother. I love watching a sleep token fan being made in real time!
Take Me Back To Eden next. But literally all their shit is great.
Liked and subscribed.
This band is incredible. I hope you listen to more of their tracks.
Thought it would only get 100 views 😂...you now have an idea of the greatness you just discovered. We are here for ALL of this. WORSHIP!!!!!
Dude I cant get over how amazing the production is on this album, beautiful stuff!
So here’s the tracks to take to fall down the rabbit hole.
The Offering, Higher, Alkaline, Hypnosis, Like That, Chokehold, The Summoning, Rain, Take Me Back to Eden.
Yes to all of these. 🖤✨️
You should check out their song Granite. A little over 3 minutes of pure vibe and great lyrics. When you listen to Sleep Token, you have to understand that everything but the drums is made by one guy, he writes, sings, records and performs all of the instruments except for the drummer. Also, they are anonymous. They wear masks and no one knows who they are, the lead singer is Vessel, and the other band members are ii, iii, and iv. The drummer is ii, and they have some drum playthrough videos on their channel that are FIRE. Only a drummer who is so IN the pocket can play out of it like he does.
this is a band/collective that understands how to be dynamic. they have something that anyone could listen to.
My god a lyric decoder! You are in touch if you can be so lasered in on the meanings in Vessel’s words. You opened up this song so much more for me!
Watched a lot of reactions to this song, and I think that's the first time I've heard that interpretation of "diamond in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky." I think you nailed it!
Man I love Sleep Token fans 🤣. This is the 5th youtube reaction channel, I've seen, were someone donated money for a Sleep Token reaction 🤣 WORSHIP 🙌
welcome to the rolla-coaster iv started listen to sleep token for a couple of weeks now, and im hooked and enjoying the ride. the insane amount of talent mixing completely different genres of music into one song that flows throughout there songs, each member of the band are insanely good at there craft, vessels vocals is the icing of the cake bring all the different genres together. i get the shivers listen to there songs, cant wait for what is next
You were stank facing at the music but I'm over here stank facing at the lyrical breakdown. Completely changed how I feel about a few sections, very cool stuff bro.
So glad you are listening to them, they are one of my current favorite multi genre bands
Don't worry, this video will perform well. Sleep Token are blowing up at the moment and for very good reason as you can probably already tell
This band and all their albums are amazing this album especially is the ending of a three album journey through songs and it all comes full circle in the end
This shit is bangin. Strait groove. Great song. Thanks for the reaction.
Also, this video will do well 😅 The Sleep Token Army will support 100%
i recommend reacting to the whole album. such a brilliant listen
Sleep Token brought me here but let me say I stayed for your beautiful calm voice. Really loved listening almost like watching Bob Ross painting while he just speaks his mind about how beautiful nature is :D
You have a really calming voice brotha. Great reaction!
200 likes my ass this bands poppin off glad you reacted to them hopin for more
This is definitely my favorite song off the new album!
This is a deep, deep, DEEP hole you're going down Dave. This record will win album of the year; not a single doubt in my mind.
This is such a great journey of a song. Starting out, it's obvious this relationship is bad or toxic. "Red flags, pink nails..." But it feels good, so it doesn't matter at the time. By the end, the shine is off, and there's only pain. So great.
“I usually get 200 maybe 300 views for new bands I’ve never reacted to before” Well umm sir you are at close to 6k views already. You have stumbled upon a truly remarkable band. They ascend from every band. They are unique.
Worship
Your facial expressions are everything to me. You feel the music with the entirety of your mind, body, and soul and it shows. The passion you have for music is contagious and i cant wait to experience it more with you. I hope you enjoy Sleep Token some more, they really woven a rich tapestry and I'm excited to see where they take the story next.
I just found your channel randomly, this is my first time hearing Sleep Token as well. What a beautiful craft they have developed :)
I love your reaction cuz I feel like I’m experiencing it with you even though I listened to all there songs millions of times
Whats crazy is they pull this off live without a bunch of backing tracks. Blows my mind as a musician how well they do both studio and live. Love the reaction man, welcome to the sleep token experience!
It's ironic that you mention New York City with this track. I was late to the Sleep Token train (and to this video) and literally heard this track for the first time this weekend when I was walking Times Square with my family on vacation. You're 100% right to say that, in certain parts of the city, you can't see the sky past the highrises, skyscrapers, and all of the bright billboards and ads. It's also EXACTLY what I thought about when I heard that line for the first time.
We need more artists to break the genre barriers... just focus on the music.
So glad to see you enjoy this band. They have become one of my favourites
Oh damn you made some lyrical analysis I've never thought of. The diamonds in the trees section made me go holy shit thats a great point
Thank stank face during the beat drop was exactly what I was hoping for since it happened to me too! Love it man! New sub here!
dude ! you have the perfect voice for narration, such a smooth and calming voice
Oh shit, Dave is on the Sleep Token train? Keep it coming sir!
If you're looking for a heavier start, would recommend The Summoning and The Offering. If a groove is more your style, Granite or Aqua Regia
I cannot stop listening to this song
Welcome to obsession of ambient metal at its finest
I am from the future, I saw all your Sleep Token reactions. They were awesome!
What color shirt am I gonna wear for my next one?
One of the best bands I have ever heard. I am a TOOL nerd, so I expect crazy shows and quality instrumentals, thematic construction, and serious lyrics … Sleep Token is right there
New to the channel. Glad you found Sleeptoken. Welcome to the rabbit hole! You have encapsulated this band perfectly and gained a sub EASY.
I always see the 'diamonds in the trees and pentagrams' line as referring to starts. The last song on the album has a line where he reminisces about laying beneath autumn trees. They start to lose their leaves so I though at night it would look like the stars (diamonds) are in the trees if you're laying beneath it. For me, the three albums took me on his journey of what seemed to be a single relationship that no matter how much he wanted it to work, it just didn't and ended up being toxic. Listen to Sundowning, This Will Become Your Tomb and then Take Me Back to Eden and you realise this cathartic journey Vessel has been taking you on.
Well done to the donator! You just can’t go wrong with Sleep Token! Agree that it should be Take Me Back to Eden next. It’s the title track off the new album and there’s a very good reason for it. 😊
please please please more sleep token. You have so much to discover
found you when i was looking at $uicideboy$ reactions who are my fav artists ever and now you’re listening to my 2nd group of artists ever. i’m loving it 🙌🏽
Recommend Take Me Back to Eden, Blood Sport (From the room below), The Offering, Chokehold, The Summoning… honestly you can’t go wrong with this band. My AOTY so far for 2023. Subbed your channel, hope you dive down the Sleep Token rabbit hole.
one of my favorite bands, you should listen(reaction) to one of these songs by them next (The Summoning, Take me back to Eden, Hypnosis, Alkaline)
the only thing better than hearing this song for the first time is watching someone else witness it and feel the way we did for the first time
I cackled at “100 or 200 views” - you’ve underestimated us, my friend.
If you check out other discography from them I’d recommend Hypnosis off of This Place Will Become Your Tomb and Dark Sings off of Sundowning. No reason other than they’re my favs :) For TMBTE it’s a tie for me between Rain and the title track.
Welcome to the gang! It's a huge rabbit hole and well worth the journey. it's glorious!
Big Dawg dont sell ya self short you got a beautiful voice too. :D New sub, keep on the ST kick!
I just found your channel and I didn’t even look at the likes until you commented about 200. I laughed and was like you have no idea and then I looked at your views ❤
This was a great reaction. Really liked how you summarized the meaning of the song also.
Beautiful track! Love your reaction.
The vocalist, Vessel, writes all the music except for the drums. Their drummer goes by II. yup!! Vessel is truly a musician through and through.
Sleep token - Blood sport (from the room below)
This song is so special 💕
If you go down this rabbit hole, I recommend starting with the Night Does Not Belong to God and ending with Euclid. :)
I'd go as far as to say start with fields of elation and thread the needle. I feel like that EP really shows us the beginning of the story
@@theoraclehostvessel it was more of a desire to see the trilogy come full circle tbh
@drifterchick482 ah yeah I should've figured that, lol
Worship. Thank you, Mr Dave 🙏
Wow you underestimated the worshipers. We all loved you beforehand. It's all about the music. Have fun a ride brother! for some reason everyone I was subscribed to went away without my knowledge. I'm back on you again now. Love ya Brother!!!!
Want that underwater feel? Atlantic, oh it goes deep. Also, your voice is amazing, love the vid bro.
JAWS, I do believe you would enjoy. Honestly, not a bad song in their catalog but that one is another level in my opinion.
"this video may not do well" well youre in with the sleep token crew
"It's pretty...no it's trap! Wait a minute, alternative rock? Nice riff...nicer riff...aaaand there's metal, ambience... What a finish!"
Bro i love your vids! You break down songs like no one else
