“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
Sleep Token bud...im a grown ass beared person...metal head my entire life! Tool Fan extra love...Full on " A perfect circle fan"...... Sleep Token hits Different than the average artist. When you witness the drummer play"...what i saw first" it will change everything about you as a person..not kidding. He goes by vessel ll" 2. aka Mr 2 i call him.... This one hits completely diferently' my brother" welcome to the journey"!
Keep reacting and the worshipers will come. It's a collective thing that the fans like to watch others discover sleep token. Somewhat of an obsession lol but all in love ❤ glad you're here! ❤❤❤
"What genre is this?" Vessel - "Yes"... Sleep Token is every genre and none at the same time. They encompass the universe without effort and it's timeless

The best part about watching someone react to Sleep Token is seeing their expeirence mirror your own the first time you heard it. This is my favourite Sleep Token song.
I like watching my people react to Sleep Token. You're gonna have to go down the rabbit hole. I grew up on soul music, hip-hop, and jazz, but Sleep Token got me into metal... Literally, every song they make is fire.
Yea! I Love sleep token reactions. I recommend the summoning, rain, granite, take me back to eden, chokehold, Euclid, dark signs, the apparition. Pretty much all of them. Especially the newest album
If this is your first introduction to Sleep Token, welcome to the gateway to another world. Who knew music could be this awesome? BTW, you really need to give the entire album a front to back pass a couple of times to get the whole story. Its all connected and there are little details and call backs sprinkled in.
Welcome to the cult 🖤 This band gives off very dark, ethereal, and hauntingly beautiful vibes. I love it. This song is about a toxic relationship, where both parties use one another. "Turn me into your mannequin and I'll turn you into my puppet queen."
First ep is One - all Vessel (lead singer, writer, plays guitar, piano, bass, everything but drums on recordings). Second ep is Two - Vessel and II(Drummer, best drummer of 2023 by Drumeo, a total genius) a few singles - Jaws, The Way That You Were, then albums, which are a trilogy. Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Take Me Back To Eden. There is lore - Vessel had a dream about the goddess of Sleep, and everything is a token to the goddess, but it is a toxic relationship. The more you react to, the more the fans will come. As you have seen we use the phrase “worship”. The concerts are rituals, and the band does not speak to the audience. This is music on another level. Also, Vessel is often crying while singing, which is why the songs are so emotion inducing. The touring guitarist is IV, and the touring bassist is III. I hope this helps!
Thanks for reacting to my lyric video! I will say that due to creating these videos only hours after the albums release some lyrics are wrong due to the band not releasing official lyrics, these were just the first interpretation we had.
@donovan5756 Listen, good sir. The whole album is on another plane of existence. I'm currently stuck on ARE YOU REALLY OKAY? Which is. HEAVY. I'd LOVE to see your reaction to it honestly and THANK YOU for giving them a chance. It allows those of us that love them so much be able to experience our favorite songs for the first time all over again.The summoning is what usual grabs ppl then it puts them in a chokehold 😂😂 Apparition and take me back to eden are also PHENOMENAL. The whole album honestly is just amazing. They, like a few other artists, are breaking the genre's and I'm here for it! THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING REACTION❤❤❤
This is the reason I love watching reactions! There is a common experience of discovering new music for the first time that brings us together. Another great band to put on your list, if you have not heard them, is the band Allt. Cheers 🤘
When you ask "who is he talking to?" I am assuming its "Sleep" he is talking to, "Sleep" is an ancient Deity that promised "Vessel" (the lead singer) glory and magnificence if he spread "Sleep's" message. I have climbed down this hole for the last few weeks and I LOVE the band. I am so glad I randomly found them. I highly recommend The Summoning or Take Me Back to Eden!
It’s good to ground before and after listening to Sleep Token. They will dredge up all the feelings. The Summoning is probably their biggest track. Take me Back to Eden is epic. Alkaline is a tight rock song. Dark Signs, Granite and Aqua Regia are grooves. Blood Sport (especially the room below version) is heartbreaking. There are three excellent albums, and an offering for every mood.
Are you really okay is absolutely phenomenal also. No one ever mentions it and it makes me kinda sad because it's a really beautiful song. Yeah it hurts to listen to sometimes, but damn it if it's not one hell of a song. ❤
I'm so happy to hear that @wendypierce5621. That's the beautiful part about music - life-altering, in the best way. Much love to you fam and I got those recommendations qued up!
Dude I’m so incredibly excited for you. You’re about to discover the most exciting and beautiful musical rabbit hole. Like you’re going to be TRANSPORTED to a different dimension.
Really nice reaction! This band is phenomenal. I saw them live this year and it was incredible, full of emotion, mystery and just exceptional musicianship. Their music takes you through pain, insecurity, longing, anger, desire, heartache and hope. Someone said they share feelings you’ve always had but couldn’t put into words. it’s worth it to listen to their discography (2 EP’s, some singles and 3 full length albums that are a trilogy of sorts) in order but that would be a lot of reactions! But I am here for it if you do! But if you don’t want to do that I would recommend (and just my humble opinion): Thread the Needle - the start The Night Does Not belong to God The Offering Higher Blood Sport from the room Below Atlantic Hypnosis Alkaline Missing Limbs Chokehold The Summoning Aqua Regia Ascensionism The Apparition Rain Euclid - The Conclusion
Well I was going to comment but I see my sister has filled the gap. 😂. Anyway, my new friend, you will be amazed by this band, their musicianship and creativity. They can literally do any and everything! New subscriber!
Sleep Token recommendations? Um… how about everything! It’s all incredible. The best thing about Sleep Token is seeing someone discover Sleep Token. Enjoy brother. 👍 from 🇦🇺
Aqua Regia, The Apparition, Atlantic, The Offering, Like That, Take Me Back to Eden, The Summoning. Basically just take your pick, can't really go wrong.
FYI, the lyric video in this is off on a couple lyrics. Anyway, love seeing people find this band for the first time! Definitely want more, take me back to Eden and blood sport from the room below are some of my personal recommendations, but I def recommend all their stuff!
Another one who fell down the rabbit hole!!! I recommend you start from the beginning, from the ep "one", so you can see their evolution. Over time you will realize that all the songs are connected. Love that band sm💗
If you decide to do a deep dive on sleep token, you can pick literally anything and it will sound good- but save Euclid for the end (not because it’s just a good song, but because it calls back to lyrics from their previous albums and it hits so hard when you KNOW those lyrics already) Great reaction! ❤
"I was just outside grounding" IM IN TEARS THATS TOO FUNNY! On a real note though, this song sounds like all the stages of grief to me. It's a really good discography even if you only listen once to appreciate the artistry of it all.
Everything Sleep Token creates is a pure masterpiece! Thank you for sharing your reaction.😍 I recommend checking out the Summoning and well every song they've ever made basically.
Subbed for more Sleep Token 😅. No lie, this band is legit phenomenal 😂😂 if that makes sense. I grew up Gen X, so I've heard A LOT of music in my life. Been to many concerts too. Mostly rock and metal. And I seriously recommend this rabbit hole. After my daughter introduced them to me I have fell headlong down the rabbit hole myself and I'm so glad I did. This band is so good, and they put on one of the best concerts (they call them rituals) I've EVER been to and that's saying something for me. I would love to see you react to The Summoning. That's the song my daughter showed me. Been hooked ever since 😂. Keep more Sleep Token coming dude! Subs will follow. Worship ❤
It's great to see another channel begin to go through Sleep Token's songs. Ascensionism is brilliant isn't it? I'm glad you liked it - they're very whip-lashy aren't they? I think the only thing you can expect from them is the unexpected because you never know which way any song will go the first time you hear it. What I'd suggest - and other commenters might agree with me here - is to start right at the beginning of their music with their EPs One and Two, then there's a couple of tracks that weren't included in either their EPs or albums and a couple of cover versions. Don't forget "The Room Below" (that's fab and you might need to be ready with a tissue depending on how emotional music makes you) and then from there go on to their three albums, Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb and Take Me Back To Eden. This particular track is on their last/latest album, TMBTE (it's easier to type the linger titles as their initials). Enjoy your journey - and I'm here for it too, as I've subscribed on the strength of this particular video. 😊 (And apologies for any typos I missed. Fat fingers+phone=occasional missed typos)
Ha! I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets a Weeknd vibe from them!!! I've said it on more than one occasion if they collaborated it would break records. Both are phenomenal in their craft.
Vessel, who is the singer is talking to Sleep, Sleep is the deity vessel, II, III, IV worship through their songs. A song that really gives you more insight to her is Alkaline. I feel this song alone goes to say that she wants Vessel to take her place and he's kinda rebelling against her with it cause he doesn't wanna be like her and hence the lyrics "You're gonna watch me ascend" and "My redemption, eternal ascension, Setting me free, So I'll take what I want then leave" But before the last lyric line it does say "And I know what you want from me You want the same as me" So part of me also thinks that maybe she feels bad for trying to force him to take her spot and does actually want him to be free.
Oh snap, thanks for clearing that up @Koko_cubVT! The dichotomy of having most if not all the control, while also wanting to trade places... epic! Much love to u!
You've stumbled on to something so cool here, dude. The whole bands discography so far tells one tale of what can be interpreted in many ways. To me, it's the most abusive, traumatic relationship two people could be in, and despite one partner trying to leave and better themselves as a person, they find themselves repeating the same behavior as they did previously. There's also this cool through line where the singer becomes aware of a diety named "Sleep" and he gives into her, becoming her vessel, and working to spread worship of his diety Subscribing, hopefully you'll do this entire album, cause every song on here is a BANGER.
Man, I wish I could go back again and listen for the first time. Be prepared to have all expectations broken.. lol. I'd recommend taking time with the reactions, make sure to have the lyrics because man spits poetry along with having one of the best voices out there. You'll notice every choice seems intentional on every song and as a musician myself I deeply respect Vessel and II for what they've been able to create.
There is so much more to explore with Sleep Token. A good few are "The Summoning", "Take me Back to Eden" and "Hypnosis". Those will show you a lot about what they're about. Would love to see you react to them as well.
Those are 3 songs they do in similar style. Not really a sampling of sleep token at all. Do you even listen to then or just mention the obvious top songs? Lol cool story bro.
once you truly understand all music you grow to appreciate this so much more.... i used to get confused with this music and not understand it. But when i understand MUSIC.... this is incredible
I just subscribed because of how you reacted to this amazing band. I've been listening to them since 2016 and they have never let me down. Please do the song Telemeres. One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded.
Recommendation....every song from sleep token but listen to them in order of release and in order on the discography. It plays out as a whole journey, and it is all amazing. Even the songs I don't listen to as much are still good.
I am so flipping excited for you to react to more sleep token! You reminded me of myself the first time I heard them….physically and emotionally moved and shook hah. Great next listens from this album include “the summoning” “take me back to Eden” “granite” “chokehold” and “the apparition” ❤🎉
I have 'My redemption, eternal ascension' tattooed on me. this song is core ST . Now that you had a taste, start at the beginning with the Sundowning. Then tomb and finally take me back to Eden. The albums are part of a bigger story that are simply amazing especially if you are gonna be breaking it down. The EPs are not really timeline related but HIGHLY recommended. . you will not be be disappointed my friend. Welcome. Worship .
Yes, I had no idea this song was gonna be this exciting. Love the recommendations btw, excited to check em all out and get a better understanding of the mythos. Blessings fam!
Just found your channel through this, and I loved your reaction. ❤ please do more sleep token, start from sundowing and finish on TMBTE, it's a journey my dude
First time watching your videos. You got a great vibe man. Definitely deserve a lot more subscribers! “The summoning”, “rain” and “granite” are all songs you should do a reaction video to
First time visit to your channel, mostly because you were reacting to Sleep Token. Aren't they just everything? People want to classify their music, but to me, Sleep Token's music is whatever-the-fVck Sleep Token wants it to be. LOL My recommendations: Nazareth and Like That. Also you have beautiful hands. LOL yep, I'm a weird one.
Truly genre-bending! I'm so glad a friend put me on to this group. Also, I appreciate the love @ree.didathing! I know my hands are flying all over the place, like some dementors or something lol Trust, ur not weird. Even if u were, I like weird! :)
Great reaction! Discovering ST is a gift! You like this song? Do “The Summoning” next! You are welcome😁.Here for it! If you play ST, the fans will follow!
I was excited to watch you react to all the other songs too just to see im too early 😂❤ will be stalking and waiting for the rest! Personally suggest The Summoning next but have to say Euclid is my current favorite.
Amazing @kkincheloe90! I'm workin to turn out some more gold for u guys lol Those seems to be crowd favorites too sooo I gotta que em up! Appreciate u!
Welcome to the rabbit hole my guy. Easy sub, and keep it going! Look at the lore and the lyrics (beware lyrics videos - there aren't many official lyrics released, so some vids are old with wrong lyrics - use Genius if you can).

So on my Spotify wrapped, Kendrick Lamar was my number 1 artist, but Sleep Token 'Sugar' was my number 1 song. Take that how you will :D
A common sentiment around discovering Sleep Token is that it's like discovering a new color.
Couldn't agree more!
"What colour can you describe Sleep Token as if you had to?"
"Yes."
Well put. I was trying to explain it to my husband and I think I’ll use this because it’s spot on!
A new colour that can be seen, felt AND heard!
And not only that. I’d take it a step further and say that it’s like a new color that is sentient and finds you when it’s meant to.
You’ve just unlocked a door you didn’t know existed and are stepping into a world you didn’t know you needed. Keep going.
Indeed...for the night is dark and full of terrors... ❤
Cutting your teeth with Ascensionism is like going from milk to Everclear.
😂 you're not wrong
“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
Real talk fam!
Sleep Token bud...im a grown ass beared person...metal head my entire life! Tool Fan extra love...Full on " A perfect circle fan"...... Sleep Token hits Different than the average artist. When you witness the drummer play"...what i saw first" it will change everything about you as a person..not kidding. He goes by vessel ll" 2. aka Mr 2 i call him....
This one hits completely diferently' my brother" welcome to the journey"!
Mr. 2m very good! I'll have to check 'em out bro!
Keep reacting and the worshipers will come. It's a collective thing that the fans like to watch others discover sleep token. Somewhat of an obsession lol but all in love ❤ glad you're here! ❤❤❤
So grateful a friend put me on to these guys - They're amazing!
Worship!
That's so true. 😂 I love watching people discover ST 🖤
"What genre is this?"
Vessel - "Yes"...
Sleep Token is every genre and none at the same time. They encompass the universe without effort and it's timeless
Pure poetry 🥰

Sleep Token made me discover feelings and emotions that I didn't know I had in me. Welcome to the club, worship
The best part about watching someone react to Sleep Token is seeing their expeirence mirror your own the first time you heard it. This is my favourite Sleep Token song.
I can see why! This song is on another level... love it!
Well hot damn, it is in fact a great day to Worship ❤
Lol love it! 😄
Ascensionism is my FAVORITE song. It was love at first listen, that last scream felt like it came from me.
I like watching my people react to Sleep Token. You're gonna have to go down the rabbit hole. I grew up on soul music, hip-hop, and jazz, but Sleep Token got me into metal... Literally, every song they make is fire.
Bro, I love that you have a diverse palate. This group is so talented, one would be loco to not feel the vibe. Appreciate you fam!
Here to Worship!🙏🏼🤘🏼💕
Love it! 😎
Yea! I Love sleep token reactions. I recommend the summoning, rain, granite, take me back to eden, chokehold, Euclid, dark signs, the apparition. Pretty much all of them. Especially the newest album
Oh I am very excited for you to react to all of their songs. It’s a train wreck of emotions.
I mean, u saw me... I was goin' thru it listening to this GOLD! 😆
Rain, Euclid, Bloodsport, well all of them, love Sleep Token
Comin' in clutch with the recommendations! Thanks for the love @Klausgrandma!
the amazing thing about sleep token is they don’t just have a song for every mood, they also have every mood in one song on multiple occasions😆
If this is your first introduction to Sleep Token, welcome to the gateway to another world. Who knew music could be this awesome? BTW, you really need to give the entire album a front to back pass a couple of times to get the whole story. Its all connected and there are little details and call backs sprinkled in.
Whoo! So many songs, so little time! Challenge accepted! Appreciate the love @sergeantseven4240!
First song i ever heard was bloodsport (from the room below) stripped down version with just Vessel and a piano...talk about emotional but beautiful.
My favorite ! far superior to the album version imo. Vulnerable Vessel is inVincible Vessel
Nice @Dragynwytch49. I've always been interested in acapella/stripped down versions of songs - life-altering, in the best way. Much love to you fam!
inVincible Vessel! Too dope!
Welcome to the cult 🖤 This band gives off very dark, ethereal, and hauntingly beautiful vibes. I love it.

(Liked and subbed, great reaction bro!)
Literally. I love watching people newly react to their music !
Worship! :)
Dude I’m so incredibly excited for you. You’re about to discover the most exciting and beautiful musical rabbit hole. Like you’re going to be TRANSPORTED to a different dimension.

Thread the Needle - the start
The Night Does Not belong to God
The Offering
Higher
Blood Sport from the room Below
Atlantic
Hypnosis
Alkaline
Missing Limbs
Chokehold
The Summoning
Aqua Regia
Ascensionism
The Apparition
Rain
Euclid - The Conclusion
Well I was going to comment but I see my sister has filled the gap. 😂. Anyway, my new friend, you will be amazed by this band, their musicianship and creativity. They can literally do any and everything! New subscriber!
I can't describe the joy I get in watching others discover Sleep Token for the first time.

definitely gonna need a reaction to the whole discography now😆
Aqua Regia, The Apparition, Atlantic, The Offering, Like That, Take Me Back to Eden, The Summoning. Basically just take your pick, can't really go wrong.
You'll love all their stuff! Worship
Lol Worship!

Yesss... as i descend further down the rabbit hole... here we go! Love the recommendations also @ggaabh810, thanks!

Exactly! Mind blown... I seriously was not expecting that type of experience. Much love!
What song is called Ascension which means in a way his musical vocals ascend by going up and down like the piano in the background
Everything Sleep Token creates is a pure masterpiece! Thank you for sharing your reaction.😍 I recommend checking out the Summoning and well every song they've ever made basically.
Lol Yes @stinatiselius8336! Qued up Summoning! Now... where's that resignation letter to my job, so I can make time for more ST? lol
Subbed for more Sleep Token 😅. No lie, this band is legit phenomenal 😂😂 if that makes sense. I grew up Gen X, so I've heard A LOT of music in my life. Been to many concerts too.

Worship ❤
Whoo! So many songs, so little time! Challenge accepted! Appreciate the love @NikkiWright-STLVR23!
"what did I do to deserve this" is exactly how I feel listening to Sleep Token 🤣
The best intro to sleep token, is their very first song on their first album. It sets the tone so perfectly for everything that is sleep token.
Love that - Thanks @drradzig81! What's the name of the song fam?
@@donovan5756 The night does not belong to god.
Sleep token is half gospel, half pagan god summoning and shenanigans.
Welcome to the fold. I'm so happy to see people discover Sleep Token. They literally saved my life.
I'm so happy to hear that @joshisokiguess. That's the beautiful part about music - life-altering, in the best way. Much love to you fam.
It's great to see another channel begin to go through Sleep Token's songs. Ascensionism is brilliant isn't it? I'm glad you liked it - they're very whip-lashy aren't they?

Don't forget "The Room Below" (that's fab and you might need to be ready with a tissue depending on how emotional music makes you) and then from there go on to their three albums, Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb and Take Me Back To Eden. This particular track is on their last/latest album, TMBTE (it's easier to type the linger titles as their initials). Enjoy your journey - and I'm here for it too, as I've subscribed on the strength of this particular video. 😊
(And apologies for any typos I missed. Fat fingers+phone=occasional missed typos)
Yessss i love seeing someone discover these guys
My favorite song is "Take Me Back To Eden". Multiple genres and emotions all in one song.
That moment in the song 10:14 like you knew what was coming but when it came you still weren't ready. 🤣and then BOOM!!
Yessss finally a new sleep token journey please next the appraition you’ll gonna love this song smmm
One of my fave songs of theirs.
I can see why! This song is on another level... love it!
Do The Summoning next, you’ll thank me. It’s a roller coaster ride so be prepared
I'm gonna have to call off of work, just to prepare lol Thanks for the recommendation!
Yesssss 🎉🎉🎉
Ha! I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets a Weeknd vibe from them!!! I've said it on more than one occasion if they collaborated it would break records. Both are phenomenal in their craft.
Absolutely! Can't wait to check out the next song by them, and if they do a collab someday?? We said it here first! :)

Subscribing, hopefully you'll do this entire album, cause every song on here is a BANGER.
Right?? I found myself reminiscing on my own situations in relationships... heavy stuff. I appreciate the love!
Worship.
Man, I wish I could go back again and listen for the first time. Be prepared to have all expectations broken.. lol. I'd recommend taking time with the reactions, make sure to have the lyrics because man spits poetry along with having one of the best voices out there. You'll notice every choice seems intentional on every song and as a musician myself I deeply respect Vessel and II for what they've been able to create.
There is so much more to explore with Sleep Token. A good few are "The Summoning", "Take me Back to Eden" and "Hypnosis". Those will show you a lot about what they're about. Would love to see you react to them as well.
Those are 3 songs they do in similar style. Not really a sampling of sleep token at all. Do you even listen to then or just mention the obvious top songs? Lol cool story bro.
Agreed!
A good sampling might be:
The Summoning
Sugar
Nazareth or Calcutta
The Offering
Atlantic
Thanks for the recommendations - Got 'em qued up! 😄
once you truly understand all music you grow to appreciate this so much more.... i used to get confused with this music and not understand it. But when i understand MUSIC.... this is incredible
Exactly! Mind blown... excited for the next recommendation. Much love!
They are equally just as great live. Vessel's vocal capacity is nuts!
Absolutely! Can't wait to check out the next song by him. His vocals and overall mystique take this band to another level!
Rain, Hypnosis, Higher, Euclid, The Apparition. Enjoyed your reaction, new subscriber. Welcome down the rabbit hole.
Comin' in clutch with the recommendations! Thanks for the love @brianhurley1103!
"Lipstick, chemtrails, red flags, pink nails." is one of my favorite lines of music ever!
Right?? These guys... droppin gems lol
Wat that mean
I just subscribed because of how you reacted to this amazing band. I've been listening to them since 2016 and they have never let me down. Please do the song Telemeres. One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded.
Take Me Back To Eden next! Worship
Yes @samrubino6201! Qued up, and thanks for the love!
Ooooh yes this is my absolute favorite song right now. So happy to see someone else discovering it and being blown away ❤
Right?? Was not ready for the energy! :)
Fall down this rabbit hole and we shall follow
Oh gosh... further down the rabbit hole we go! Hold on tight @angelal5198, thanks!
Recommendation....every song from sleep token but listen to them in order of release and in order on the discography. It plays out as a whole journey, and it is all amazing. Even the songs I don't listen to as much are still good.
Absolutely! Can't wait to check out the next songs by them!
Sleep token is sick man! Also, love the Indian Motorcycle hat!
My guy! Appreciate it - Excited to be onboard for this journey with ST!
Also, this is currently my favorite ST song! Worship 🖤
Go Birds!
Teacher: What colour crayons are you using today Vessel?
Vessel: Yes
Take me back to Eden is a must and also the summoning
Amazing @JenniferBrown-g5j! Those seems to be crowd favorites so I got u!
I am so flipping excited for you to react to more sleep token! You reminded me of myself the first time I heard them….physically and emotionally moved and shook hah. Great next listens from this album include “the summoning” “take me back to Eden” “granite” “chokehold” and “the apparition” ❤🎉
Right?? I was blown away... the room was so hot lol milk was a bad choice! :)
Welcome to the best love songs for goth chicks that has ever been written.
Yes @theFunkyThumb! I'm here for the ride!
Loved this reaction!! Would absolutely love to watch you react to the summoning by sleep token (their biggest song)

You got a new Sub. Enjoy the Sleep Token journey Bizzy. Worship.
I have 'My redemption, eternal ascension' tattooed on me. this song is core ST . Now that you had a taste, start at the beginning with the Sundowning. Then tomb and finally take me back to Eden. The albums are part of a bigger story that are simply amazing especially if you are gonna be breaking it down. The EPs are not really timeline related but HIGHLY recommended. . you will not be be disappointed my friend. Welcome. Worship .
Yes, I had no idea this song was gonna be this exciting. Love the recommendations btw, excited to check em all out and get a better understanding of the mythos. Blessings fam!
Just found your channel through this, and I loved your reaction. ❤ please do more sleep token, start from sundowing and finish on TMBTE, it's a journey my dude

Favorite song
I can see why! This song is on another level... love it!
First time watching your videos. You got a great vibe man. Definitely deserve a lot more subscribers!
“The summoning”, “rain” and “granite” are all songs you should do a reaction video to
Amazing @seanmurphy6136! Those seems to be crowd favorites sooo I gotta que em up! Appreciate u!
First time visit to your channel, mostly because you were reacting to Sleep Token. Aren't they just everything? People want to classify their music, but to me, Sleep Token's music is whatever-the-fVck Sleep Token wants it to be. LOL My recommendations: Nazareth and Like That.
Also you have beautiful hands. LOL yep, I'm a weird one.
Truly genre-bending! I'm so glad a friend put me on to this group. Also, I appreciate the love @ree.didathing! I know my hands are flying all over the place, like some dementors or something lol Trust, ur not weird. Even if u were, I like weird! :)
Worship
Lol Worship!
You'll love them just stop now and start from the beginning and listen to it all.
Thanks @hopehinson! What's the beginning? I heard Sundowning?
@donovan5756 there are 2 EPs before sundowning.
Yep, you’ve opened a door to something elite.
Here for this sleep token journey
Yes @Amiamigg! Thanks for the love!
Great reaction! Discovering ST is a gift! You like this song? Do “The Summoning” next! You are welcome😁.Here for it! If you play ST, the fans will follow!
Comin' in clutch with the recommendations! Thanks for the love @KashtheDegen!

Him: shout out to everyone who's a sleep token fan out there.
Me: oh babe, that's you in like 10 minutes.
Welcome to the rabbit hole my guy. Easy sub, and keep it going! Look at the lore and the lyrics (beware lyrics videos - there aren't many official lyrics released, so some vids are old with wrong lyrics - use Genius if you can).
Excellent advice and appreciate the love fam!
Beautiful song bruh
U need to listen to the whole album
Incredible journey
Thanks for ur reaction....tho way way late..
