This is probably my top three favorite songs from Sleep Token. Obsessed is an understatement, as I listen to this song at least twice a day. Heard them play this live a few weeks ago too. Loved this video and you now have another subscriber!
When I saw them last year and they played this during the line "I want to have you to myself" it was such a strange but wonderful moment where it felt like everyone was just reaching for vessel at the same time.
I also don’t like harsh vocals and I don’t always like the true metal beats, but Sleep Token always takes you on a journey with every song. They will go to the dark places, but then they will take you back to the light. The harsh vocals and driving metal feels earned and it feels like it serves a narrative purpose even if it’s not my favorite. I absolutely adore the chorus to this song and as a result I appreciate the screams that much more. Vessel is just a genius.
I didn't like harsh vocals, but The Summoning was me dipping my toe in the water. Then I fell in love with Vore. Next thing I know was obsessively listening to Dethrone by Bad Omens. While I'm not fully there, aka Lorna Shore, their front man Will Ramos has me listening to a few of their songs. It's been a progression. Now I love a good blegh.
I don't know about that. I have a pretty dope headset and Vore is the only track that the vocals are harder to differentiate. I have the same issue with every setup, car, home audio, etc. It sounds to me like the levels were off compared to other songs, but I assume there is some reason they did it that way.
When it comes to screamed/ unclean vocals, sometimes when it comes to listening, especially for the first time, it doesn't really matter what the lyrics are. Sometimes it's more of hearing the passion, pain or emotion in screams at times when it's in a song like this
Always a joy seeing your reactions. One channel said Sleep Token is only 34% metal based on some basic metal criteria like harsh vocals. I think Vore alone makes up for at least 20% of that total by itself 😆
@@GoatGodBaal oh shoot that's right! So...Gods is like 20%, Vore is 10%, and then all the other songs 4%, assuming we go by harsh vocals alone lol. Of course, there were other factors like blast beats and guitar chugging so the math actually got a little complex, hehe.
@@myleneguillaume5807 not that I'm complaining in the least but now I gotta go back and listen to Gods again because I coulda sworn it was all harsh vocals 😆
The part you mentioned video games. First thing I heard when this song came out is that section sounding like a resident evil save room and i've never seen anybody mention it. Weird nostalgia but comfy. Not my genre but this song is great.
ARE YOU IN PAIN LIKE I AM? I've got a good ear for picking up the lyrics, I've had quite a bit of practice 😂 but I always like to confirm that I've heard the lyrics right. Loved the reaction, glad you liked it! They should be in video games, you are not wrong. 🔥
3:55 always comes up with people who don't generally listen to this type of music. No, most of the time, without lyrics, I have no idea what they're saying, but you don't need to. Like listening to songs growing up and years later you learn that you misheard a lyric. They weren't screaming in those songs and you still couldn't hear them, so what's different here? I'm also a drummer, and have a habit of really only listening/caring about the drum parts in songs sometimes, so it may be something that I don't have a hard time with because I'm not trying to understand the lyrics.
Yea, learning how to understand screaming takes some time, and different vocalists might have different styles that you have to 'tune' into, but you can get to a point where you can understand it. But when you're just starting off, yea it just sounds like a lot of "RAW RAW RAWR!"
If you're looking for headphones, try the "beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro". They cost usually around 170-150 usd, you will need an amp from what I've heard. But it will be absolutely worth it if you're reacting to detailed tunes like these ones. Give them a look!
Yeah, it’s called a fry scream, mostly what he’s doing on this one. I guess one thing it does that I like is make it, when he does sing, whether in the chorus or bridge, it makes it stand out, especially in that really pretty bridge part. There are a lot of dynamics. I like screaming, but this song had to grow on me.
I feel like they intentionally "muddied up" or distorted his screams in the verses. I can make out some of it on my own, but lyric videos definitely helped
I’ve read that they intentionally mixed this song to make it sound like Vessel’s vocals are progressively getting more and more drowned out in the mix to give the perception that he is being devoured
If you're wanting a good pair of flat-sounding headphones like for studio use you could get the Status Audio CB-1's, or the AKG240's. Both are about the same price depending on where you're at region wise. Gaming headset's aren't that good with clarity and separation like studio monitoring headphones can. That's why I game with basic speakers, and when I'm writing music at home I use my monitoring headset. But feel free to explore what works for your setup too. Good luck!
It depends on the vocalist as some are a lot clearer than others when doing harsh vocals but yes a lot of time you can hear what they're saying once your ear is atuned to it.
After this album is done…. Do Sundowning album first, then the second This Place Will Become Your Tomb, IN ORDER WITH THE SONGS. Then you can listen to TMBTE on your own and it will hit you even harder than it did the first time TRUST ME ON THIS… #WORSHIP 🙏🏻😊
New to the channel. I really think you need to check out Motionless In White- Thoughts and Prayers and Slauggterhouse. And another band called Dark Divine - Burn the witch and cold
Its harder listening to sleep tokens harsh vocals since they blend it in with the music so it is alot more harder to listen to what Vettel is saying than other vocalist
This song really grew on me when the album came out. That chorus is so good.
Two different choruses sort of
The more I listen to this song the more I fall in love with it. The different levels of sounds in this is incredible
This is probably my top three favorite songs from Sleep Token. Obsessed is an understatement, as I listen to this song at least twice a day. Heard them play this live a few weeks ago too. Loved this video and you now have another subscriber!
If you google the word Vore, proceed with caution 😅 it gives the lyrics a whole different meaning
Oh my…
😅 it sure does
Ran to Google 🏃♀️💨💨 😂
Yesss!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY, THE WAIT IS OVER !!!!!! 😭😭 You Sir , are in for a suprise with this Sleep Token song.👀😏 Can't wait 👏🏼👏🏼
Yeah that was crazy!!
You are totally missing out, Imminence
Imminence the best!
Literally any song
Imminence- The Black ⚫️
So so so true
When I saw them last year and they played this during the line "I want to have you to myself" it was such a strange but wonderful moment where it felt like everyone was just reaching for vessel at the same time.
THEY PLAYED VORE?? i was just thinking this would've been killer at the NYC show!
@@masquerademage it is so good live. It's so visceral. It's off the setlist this tour sadly

And, yes, the chorus of this song massages my brain, especially when Vessel hits that high note.
Yay its your head set you can hear all vessel is saying. Awesome track. I agree i love the clean vocals but his screams are awesome too

“are you trained enough” killed me 😂 but yes we are :)
Hyped for this reaction. You need to do GODS next because its equally heavy!!
Omg lol 😮😮

This is definitely one of those songs you need lyrics for, especially at the start, but it's great
I love the 'are you in pain like I am' progressing from a whisper to a scream, i feel shivers down my spine; the song grows on you best believe man 🖤
Always a joy seeing your reactions. One channel said Sleep Token is only 34% metal based on some basic metal criteria like harsh vocals. I think Vore alone makes up for at least 20% of that total by itself 😆
Dont forget Gods! It has no cleans at all.

@@GoatGodBaal yes there are, a little, but there are !
@@myleneguillaume5807 not that I'm complaining in the least but now I gotta go back and listen to Gods again because I coulda sworn it was all harsh vocals 😆
@@StrangeQuark84 "and do you like the way it feels like fire from the heavens"... his voice is pure heaven here...
When this single dropped I was speechless 😮 crazy change up from their usual style, and it parallels with Gods so well 😍
The part you mentioned video games. First thing I heard when this song came out is that section sounding like a resident evil save room and i've never seen anybody mention it. Weird nostalgia but comfy.
Not my genre but this song is great.
You should react to the things they do at live performances 😂😂
It's a great day to Worship ❤
So excited!!! Been waiting for a reaction video to Vore from so many people!!!
ARE YOU IN PAIN LIKE I AM?

Just saw them live and all I can say is wow!!!!! They bring it🫶
Believe it or not, that's Vessel and IV screaming...
IV's live vocals on this are superior 🔥🔥🔥🔥
out of all their songs this is one i like most for it's lyrics
Im waiting for you to look up the lyrics and realize what this song is about and who is the one that does the screaming portion 😅
Yea, learning how to understand screaming takes some time, and different vocalists might have different styles that you have to 'tune' into, but you can get to a point where you can understand it. But when you're just starting off, yea it just sounds like a lot of "RAW RAW RAWR!"
If you want clean vocals listen to “Rain” by sleep token
This was great
0:37 LMFAO, great review!
lol melted my FACE!
Look up the words, its something else❤

I love anything by sleep token, but i think my favorite is bloodsport (from the room below) , talk about feeling his words 😢
I feel like they intentionally "muddied up" or distorted his screams in the verses. I can make out some of it on my own, but lyric videos definitely helped
Check out the live edition of the summoning on the drumeo channel 🔥🙌🏼 ii drumming is incredible
Vore and Gods are STs heaviest songs. Everything else is mostly the clean vocals that you (and I) enjoy
Bet! Thank you
@@DonVon Give is one of my favorites and it’s not heavy at all
I’ve read that they intentionally mixed this song to make it sound like Vessel’s vocals are progressively getting more and more drowned out in the mix to give the perception that he is being devoured

Listen to Dark Signs next!
Really enjoy it when you mention things you don’t like too. Lots of reviewers on here just slobber. Not sincere. Keep it up.
It depends on the vocalist as some are a lot clearer than others when doing harsh vocals but yes a lot of time you can hear what they're saying once your ear is atuned to it.
AYYY 🔥
After this album is done….
Do Sundowning album first, then the second This Place Will Become Your Tomb, IN ORDER WITH THE SONGS. Then you can listen to TMBTE on your own and it will hit you even harder than it did the first time
TRUST ME ON THIS…
#WORSHIP 🙏🏻😊
❤
Have you checked out The Home Team? I’d recommend the songs Loud and Brag off their new album.
Sleep Token - Gods
React to Spiritbox! Blessed be or Circle With Me are good ones to start on
New to the channel. I really think you need to check out Motionless In White- Thoughts and Prayers and Slauggterhouse. And another band called Dark Divine - Burn the witch and cold
Please I need you to listen to Euclid 😩😩
You have to google what vore means..
Came here to say this! 😂
Its harder listening to sleep tokens harsh vocals since they blend it in with the music so it is alot more harder to listen to what Vettel is saying than other vocalist
you should pull up lyrics on side
I’m bout to
Are you in pain like I am?
Musically, no one in the scene fucks with this
I'm confused. Who doesn't fuck with Vore?
This is not one of my favs, neither is gods.
