This track then transitions directly into Hypnosis and blows your fucking face off. Sleep Token have an incredible talent for writing album openers with atmosphere and power. Worship
Atlantic is, objectively, just a perfect song. The composition, the production, everything. There isn't a second of this song that isn't maticulously, and perfectly, crafted.
My first listen to this album was on release just after midnight, in my dark bedroom with a set of headphones. It was superb. Cannot wait for the new album
hell yes this is my favourite Sleep Token track!!! I love it so so so much, I listen to it daily. Another reactor described this songs progression as "sad, to sad with purpose, to fighting back/action" and I can't help but agree. I love the way this song builds, starting with piano and his vocals, then adding that water sound and changing up the piano chords, then the distortion and layering on the voice, then bam... that DROP and in comes the "wall of noise" and this song that was previously so intimate and small becomes HUGE. It's my opinion that nobody's doing it like Sleep Token. Some people might be doing similar stuff, but honestly no one is doing it like them or as well. Worship.
I find myself coming back to this song the most. It’s got a melancholic sound to it and I was just in a postpartum state and this song just was one of many that helped me through it. Such a beautiful song. ❤
I heard this song for the first time Friday. It took me on a journey and is one of the few songs to emotionally bring me to tears. It's beautiful and I can't wait to hear it live.
Atlantic is the song that got me into Sleep Token, after that the rest of the night was listening to all their songs. ive never fallen in love with a band so much
Atlantic Lyrics [Verse 1] Call me when they bury bodies underwater It's blue light over murder for me Crumble like a temple, built from future daughters To wasteland when the oceans recede Merry in the morning, earn your bitter fodder It's easier to try not to eat So flood me like Atlantic, bandage up the trenches Anything to get me to sleep [Verse 2] I woke up surrounded, eyes like frozen planets Just orbiting the vacuum I am They talk me through the damage, consequence And how it's a pain they know they don't understand Sobbing as they turn to statues at the bedside I'm trying not to crush into sand So flood me like Atlantic, weather me to nothing Wash away the blood on my hands

This isn’t music. It’s art. A spiritual experience.
Can't believe you hadn't heard this yet! Such a gorgeous song.
LOVE it

Still my favorite Sleep Token track. It's absolutely perfect.
Saw them live with Architects earlier this month and they absolutely don't disappoint!
it might be my favourite right now as well, even over the 2 new tracks!
Agreed - this track is perfection. I love the mystery in the lyrics, as well.
Yeah this has been my favorite track from Sleep Token since album release. That whole album's gotten me through some tough times
"I'm buying my ticket right this second" can relate af
So stoked for it

His voice is insane. With how abstract some of their songs can be, his voice fits each one perfect in its own way

yeah I got the piano riff tattoo'd on my chest, this song is quite meaningful

Facts
Atlantic Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Call me when they bury bodies underwater
It's blue light over murder for me
Crumble like a temple, built from future daughters
To wasteland when the oceans recede
Merry in the morning, earn your bitter fodder
It's easier to try not to eat
So flood me like Atlantic, bandage up the trenches
Anything to get me to sleep
[Verse 2]
I woke up surrounded, eyes like frozen planets
Just orbiting the vacuum I am
They talk me through the damage, consequence
And how it's a pain they know they don't understand
Sobbing as they turn to statues at the bedside
I'm trying not to crush into sand
So flood me like Atlantic, weather me to nothing
Wash away the blood on my hands
One of my favorites! Such a beautiful song 🖤🔥🖤🔥
I'm really looking forward to seeing them live again, missed the Melbourne tickets so I booked mine for Adelaide.
I’ll be there!
I missed Brissy tix but the venue upgrade meant more tix and I was on that faster than a fly on shit
The drumming is so elite
Beautiful song ❤
Outstanding opening track and leads nicely to Hypnosis. 3rd favorite from that album after Telomeres and High Water.
Beautiful 🖤
The track hit ya hard when you least expected it too. 😂
blood sport if you wanna cry, especially the room below version
I love Vessels voice in this song so much
Sleep Token has got me excited about me about music again 🙌
Unbelievable live as well, absolutely beautiful song....but all Thier stuff is beautiful.
Worship
Holy shit, thank you, I knew it reminded me of something! Beside You in Time by Nine Inch Nails. It's from With Teeth.
Worship ❤️
I better see ya at The Gov my man! See you in May!!!!
Got my ticket!
I hate my government, I love my countries musicians! MINDBLOWING!
I much prefer the first album, Sundowning. More diverse and surprising stylistically. Listen to Higher then Sugar, you'll see what I mean.
I love you
Cross between Coldplay and Nothing but Theives only better !
