"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

Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Sleep Toke! Worship!

Crying and then, sipping a juice pouch is fantastic😂

"It's Sad" You have no idea.

This band literally does not have a bad song. 3 full albums, 2 EPs a hand full of covers and some singles mixed throughout. This band has by far become my favorite band of all time and they did all of that while being Independent. They were just signed by RCA and so they will be here for the long haul. A few suggestions for your next song are Atlantic, Blood sport (from the room below) and The Night Does Not Belong to god.

Here to Worship!

Yall should checkout Rain, Acensionism, or Euclid next, gotta feeling you will dig that one. Worship!!

Here for Sleep Token stayed for Caprisun. Liquid cool reaction ladies. ~Worship

They formed in 2016, based in London. While I havent listened to a lot of their music, they have a very unique way and sound to how they present it.

Euclid is the closin* part of this journey. The realisation that it’s over and it is okay. Okay to move on, okay to be somebody new. Okay to look back at the happy times. But you’re gonna be okay. The pain and hurt has passed. You survived to lowest parts of your life and wanted eternal ascension. Tomorrow is a new day.

Ladies lol. Looks like you have some Sleep Token reactions to do soon. May we welcome you to worship. I know it sounds weird. But you will understand soon enough what we all mean by this epic band. I hope you like piano, singing, drums, and love, plus confusion. Because if i could explain it i would. No one can. This is why. Much love and hugs through out! From Atlanta Ga.

Don't worry, we all cry a lot 😂 go down the rabbit hole, it's worth it! Greetings from Germany

More Sleep Token please, such a great reaction. Keep tissues at the ready as a lot of their songs are emotive. Suggest Ascensionism. You can't go wrong with any of their songs tbf.

Its completely okay to cry on that part of the song.I listen to WAYY MORE heavy music than this and still doing it eveytime i hear it.. thats the magic of Sleep token.

"I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre" is such a beautiful way to say "like a moth to a flame". Vessel just has a way with words like I've never heard before. I highly suggest having the lyrics up on a second screen or turning on captions (as long as they arent auto generated).

Love your reactions! Love how yall are drinkin Capri Sun while listening to Sleep Token. Some Mom power right there! If you enjoy this song and tear up, get ready for an emotional journey if you decide to understand the lore and the mind of Vessel while listening to this amazing band and their discography. I’m here for it! Enjoy! Worship!

This so just the tip of the Sleep Token iceberg, so many good songs! I would recommend the song Euclid of the same album as this song. It’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard

It's a Scythe. Love Sleep Token, you guys picked an interesting one to start with though lol. It's one of my favorites on the album but if you don't know what Sleep Token is like going in, I bet it seems all over the place. It's the title track and 2nd to last song on the album and in a lot of ways it mirrors and calls back to the rest of the album. If you want to get a better grip on them as a band you can jump around, people will have plenty of suggestions and there really are no bad choices IMO. Or going strait through an album 1 song at a time will pretty quickly show you that the main thing to expect is that you won't know what to expect lol.

New subscriber! Their lyrics are absolutely poetic genius as I can honestly say I’ve never heard such emotive lyrics in my entire life. They’re just brilliant. Enjoy the rabbit hole.

You should definitely check out their song blood sport from the room below

Subscribed. Please do more Sleep Token. A raw video to react to that showcases the singing talent of vessel would be "blood sport, from the room below" but you cant go wrong with any of their tracks.

Sometimes you have bands who have music that’s good but the lyrics are so so and sometimes you have bands when the lyrics are good but the music is so so. Sleep Token in my opinion have mastered them both. Like nirvana I believe ST are a once in a generation band. #Worship Soon you will know what that means if you haven’t already.

Great Reaction...can't go wrong with any of their songs. If you want to see some amazing visuals as well as one of my favorites, check out the music video for The Love You Want.

Enjoy this journey you've begun, it's a wonderful experience of emotion through music.

Loved this review. You are me, we are one.

Thank you for reacting to Sleep Token ! My daughter introduced me to them 7 months ago and that's all I've listened to since. I love every song they have ever put out. Vessel is an amazing songwriter and vocalist and II is my absolute favorite drummer. They are all amazing musicians. I hope you react to more. I subscribed to your channel. 😁 I think you would love the song "Rain". It's one of my favorites off the new album. It has beautiful vocals and lyrics and kind of a gospel choir feel in the second half and a couple other surprises. It's really amazing. ❤

keep it up the intro for some reason reminded me of my mother, hope you guys follow your goals and have a great day

Incredible song. I like that you both don’t stop it often and let the music flow. Good balance. Say your piece quickly and get back to the tune 👌

Sleep Token is an amazing band! I’m happy that you guys found them. Great reaction

I love seeing different people discover this band as much as I love them. I really hope you enjoy them 😊

Sleep Token is the most captivating, emotive band I've ever come across. I hope you explore a lot more of their songs. They really are special

please do more sleeptoken! loved your reactions. its incredible seeing peoples first reactions and almost getting to experience them for the first time again through the the reaction

9:43 Loved your reaction hahahahaha, that Djent breakdown... Is all fire. I would love to recommend a song, and it's from a band called Allt - "The Orphan Breed" . Greetings from Argentina, loved your reaction :D

The power of music. No clue about the band or the meaning of the song and it brings tears to her eyes. Incredible.

"Why am I crying?!" I did the same thing. 😅 I love this song. That key change right before that part is so subtle but hits you in the soul.

Loved how you were both a little on edge/confused at the beginning but get sucked into the song towards the end. Capri sun girl must be protected at all costs 😂

❤❤❤ such a talented band! No genre just a little bit of everything mixed into a melting pot of emotions! Welcome to sleep token!

Sleep Token is my favorite band and I love music from all genres and eras. I highly recommend listening to all three albums, in a row, without stopping. They tell a complete story and are one of the most beautiful masterpieces of modern art that I have seen. I had heard random songs from them, but when I listened to the full trilogy and understood the deeper meaning behind every song, it changed my idea of what music could even be. The themes and even certain lyrics permeate throughout the trilogy. From the first song of the first album, to the last song of the third album, Vessel weaves a story with genius poetry and skillful musicianship. Nothing else compares to Sleep Token. Also, everyone is confused by the genre blending at first so here is a quote from Vessel during one of the only real interviews he has ever done. He was asked what genre Sleep Token is supposed to be and he replied, “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.” Worship!

This band is not just a listen. It’s an experience. Dig in.

The voice of Vessel can heal me, yet it can bring me to the edge of an existential crisis

Their lyrics (and music) are amazing. "My my those eyes like fire, im a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre" is a take on the 'moth to a flame' simile, but taken to a new level - he is attracted to (her?) but the light being funeral pyre is ominous and suggests some deeper/dark issues there. "No amount of self sought fury will bring back the glory of innocence" also gets me every time and stands alone as a majestic statement about the challenges (baggage) people accumulate as they mature and move through life. Many other such examples throughout their catalogue. Enjoy diving in, if you do.

🤩👍Entertaining Genuine Reaction, Ladies. This is my introduction to Sleep Token and I'm Impressed. More Power, Much Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭💖.

“why am i crying?!” Girl don’t worry we all are with u😂❤️

I love how Sleep Token squeezes tears out of so many unsuspecting first-timers. It’s a beautiful thing;)

“It’s staring off slow” they had no clue what this man was about to do 😂

If you're wanting a good quick sob session thanks to Sleep Token then listen to and also watch the video for Fall For Me. It's heart breaking. Bring a box of tissues for sure

Great reaction, ladies!! Welcome to the wonderful rollercoaster called SLEEP TOKEN!!

Your reaction made me tear up too! ;0)

You’re actually starting toward the end of the story that is the three albums they’ve released. I recommend you listen to them too . They have some covers , Hey Ya and I Wanna Dance w Somebody.. try it you’ll like it.

You just went what you thought was a destination. It’s only a beginning. Sleep Token is a once in a lifetime experience. The Doors are the other

They are what I like to call living art. Start at the beginning and go on the journey, don’t pick it apart by listening to songs out of order and from different albums, it’s meant to be a story. Vessel does what he wants lol and it just works, he understands music.

Please react to more sleep token

Great reaction! I would suggest that you start at the beginning with EP one, then, EP two, the singles, then the three albums. This will get you through ST diverse genre blending, otherwise known as ST. And the story of Sleep across the trilogy.

😂 why am I crying? Same girl same. And yes “that guy” is awesome

Please react to more Sleep Token!! Us sleepy heads love and support reaction channels, hope you get addicted like us🖤

Can’t wait for more! Worship

Getting a Sleep Token chest piece Tatted tomorrow! This band lives rent free in my soul and I could NEVER be mad at it! At this point they run through my DNA! 💛 •WORSHIP•

100% need to do The Summoning, Aqua Regia and Rain from their newest album!

Crying, vibing, then wanting to break stuff. Welcome to sleep token!! Y'all should react to bloodsport!!! I subbed

here to worship

Welcome to Sleep Token! Enjoy the journey and Worship!

haha yes!!! Worship!

"What genre is Sleeptoken?" Vessel: "Yes"...... Thanks Gals ;) Worship

I HAVE to see yalls reaction to "Euclid". And remember the song "The night does not belong to god" when you do!!

Worship!

Sleep token - Hey Ya. Definitely will make you cry.

Sleep Token IS a genre. Welcome and Worship \m/

There is an over arching story told in sleep tokens music. Extremely simplified its about a man who gives himself to a entity named sleep believing that Sleep will help him but instead uses his body as a vessel to do terrible things and acts of violence. The albums track vessels journey. This song specifically is about Vessel begging and demanding that he be returned to "Eden" who is assumed to be his lost love from explaining how vessel experiences life and then asking sleep to release him and finally almost giving into sleep again. At least that's always been my understanding of it.

Seeing them live at sick new world imma pass out

The algorithm may want you to keep going at the hard stuff, but you may want to check out The Love You Want or Bloodsport next.

Worship 🙌

They touch your soul.

"my my those eyes like fire, I'm a winged insect you're a funeral pyre." basically saying "like a moth to a flame" he cant help himself from being drawn to her (sleep). as a fan of Vessel BEFORE Sleep Token, I cant wait for you guys to dive into this rabbit hole.

Just one of many masterpieces by Vessel.

Subscribed because there is no song by Sleep Token that isn't epic. Im here for the rest of your reactions. Welcome.

I had been shown Sleep Token in 2017ish, and while I thought he has a very unique voice, the music generallyisn’t for me. The “genre” they are in has kind of been nicknamed “baddiecore,” which is hilarious to me. So many regular people are obsessed with this band, and people are posting thirst trap stuff on tiktok with Sleep Token music. If youwant to check out anothef band that kind of similar, breakk.away is very good. I think they only have 2 songs released as of right now.

I want to see more tears! Do Sleep Tokens 'Blood Sport' from the room below. Bring tissue!

I know you’ve recently done Will Ramos with Lorna Shore. Fun fact, this is his favorite band in the world.

“I’m sure it’ll pick up” you have no idea lol, sleep token always leaves you surprised

I think the secret to Sleep Token's success is not even that all (!) their songs are great. It's that they immediately connect with people on an emotional level, through the music, through the lyrics and through Vessel's voice. They just reach places in people that other bands never get to.

Scythe was the word you were looking for for the tool/weapon she is holding

Sleep tokennnnnnnn let’s goooo

The apple in left hand is cool Eden

Worship :)

Highly recommend: Doomed(Live at the Royal Albert Hall) by Bring Me The Horizon. The lyrics are really good as well!

I really hope you guys go down the Sleep Token rabbit hole. I would try and suggest songs but then I would just be listing every single one lol. If you’re interested in starting at the beginning of the trilogy (there are 3 albums that all intertwine and tell a story) I would definitely suggest that. Especially since people are suggesting Euclid, the last song on the last album of the trilogy, I will say it hits so much harder and makes more sense to start with the first song on their first album Sundowning called The Night Does Not Belong to God. Going through everything in order you’ll see the story unfold and see so many callbacks to so many songs. It’s actually brilliant and Vessel’s lyrics are pure poetry. But that’s just my suggestion! Worship 🙏🏻 Also it was the capri sun for me lmao

Will Ramos' favorite band. Nice, next it's gotta be Lorna Shore - Pain Remains. Let's gooooo, ladies! \m/

Welcome sit back and enjoy 😉

worship!

Oh, my friends.... this but the beginning of your journey. You have to do more Sleep Token. Or all of it, honestly. One song, one video at a time. Their 3 albums are a trilogy that have helped so many people heal and you really should start from the beginning now that you've dipped your toes in.

You will cry some more to them, not because its sad, but because its honest.

Something I don't see very often in the comments is that all of the music you hear on the recordings is just the singer and the drummer. They tour with other musicians, but the singer plays all the instruments except drums in the studio. I would suggest Bloodsport (from the room below) or Atlantic if you like the sad songs...but they have so many great songs like The Summoning, The Night Does Not Belong to God, Higher, Levitate, Ascensionism, Euclid, Etc. You can't go wrong.

As per usual, when new people react to Sleep Token, the whole crew comes flying out to talk up our favourite band. Enjoy the ride, especially the album this song is from, that album was easily best album of all music in 2023. Enjoy, join us in Worship!

Sleep Token tldr is basically fuck the genre, it's all about expressing emotions, what music should be all about. I have never before in my entire life listened to so many tracks of one band and loved every single one of them as of Sleep Token. It's something special.

Caprisun. Killing it.

Just remember to breathe"

Scythe. That's the word you were looking for.

To answer your question, the figure is holding a scythe. Welcome to the world of Sleep Token btw. You’re in for quite the ride.

DYWTYLM, Alkaline, The Summoning, Granite are all also great songs to try out by them

If you'd like to have a nice cry, you have to do "Are You Really Okay".... Such a gut punch. If you want more genre blending, "Ascensionism" and "Apparition" are phenomenal.
