This band is AMAZING you guys have struck gold. There’s a reason you’ve HEARD OF them. Every song is a breath of fresh air! Recommend doing more! Worship.

What a wonderful journey you're on with these guys. Sleep Token is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'll get. Truly a unique experience.

Dude when I heard this song for the first time I spent so long trying to count weird time sigs, respect for recognising that it's a very carefully fucked with 4/4

I have used this song as a boss baytle music in my d&d campaign

As a musician, it's awesome you guys took the time to break down what's happening in the song! I'm glad you mentioned modulation, which is something Sleep Token have been doing a lot more frequently in their latest releases - lots of people get caught up in thinking the song is in another time signature, but it's entirely 4/4 :) Worship.

Such an amazing act. Would be cool to seem them live, they seem to have a pretty chill show.

Yassss! Sleep Token are the best band I have ever come across and the recent album is definitely my AOTY! You should go down the rabbit hole now. They’re genre bending and use elements of everything from rock, metal, RnB, trap, hip hop, gospel, and more. Even if you don’t like one song don’t write them off as every song is different and as you can see from this one they switch up completely through the songs, also don’t be thrown off by some of them being 7-8 minutes long either as it goes by far too quickly. You should start at the beginning and work your way through as they tell a story and have call backs to a lot of them. The band are anonymous, I and others know who they are but won’t reveal out of respect to the band and fans but the singer goes by the moniker Vessel, drummer, who is a beast is II, bassist III and guitarist IV. From London UK. As far as their discography goes they brought out two EPs called One and Two, then 2 singles called Jaws and The Way That You Were, then the three albums Sundowning, The Place Will Become Your Tomb, then TMBTE (Take Me Back To Eden). They’ve done five covers that I’m aware of. One being Hey Ya by OutKast, I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston, Is It Really You? By Loathe and When The Party’s Over by Billie Eilish, Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. His Vocal range I believe is B ♭2 to F#5 and he has a wonderful chest voice, head voice and scream. I have never hyper fixated on a band like I have with these! Loved the react and Will subscribe and hopefully see many more. 🖤 The trilogy = Seduction. Destruction. Liberation.

Very good analysis guys, I really enjoyed the reaction! Hope to see more Sleep Token songs soon! Cheers

SC is back! YES!

Time signature. Is genius. The breakdowns are 6/8 7/8 3/8. Looping back around to the 4/4 cadence. So 16 beat sections. The verses kinda prog it out and meld some of the guitars keeping that same split time signature while other pieces stay more 4/4 8/8. But it all comes back together every 16 beats. The tension reliefs every chorus to make it all 4/4 and smooth. I may be wrong but thats my human attempt to diagnose the genius that is sleep token. 😅

Welcome to sleep token rabbit hole 😅. This band and the vocal (vessel) is phenomenal. It’s a pure peace of art

You guys need to do more Sleep Token, loved your analysis. Songs like Vore, Rain and Granite would be awesome to hear

Have yall heard False Meridian by Invent Animate? might be my favorite song of all time

In case yall were wondering, their producer for this song and its respective album is Carl Brown

@Ern - During the chorus, at least, I was able to find a consistent-but-very-slow 4/4. Like you said, though, they were doing some WEIRD shit inside of it (which was rad as hell)

They make your ears pregnant.

Sleep Token Espectacular el vídeo, la canción y la voz del cantante 👍

New Band-Maid is out. Check out instrumental FROM NOW ON and also PUZZLE (Live)

Hypnosis drum playthrough is amazing by them

Great reaction guys, like the nerd talk^^

So is it progressive ethereal metal? Any way you classify it, it’s a kick in my chestticles. Cheers ❤️‍🔥

Cynic, Tool, Gojira and Pestilence "Spheres"...Sleep Token :)

If you guys like that progressive style and time changes, as well as really great vocals, that mixes cleans with falsetto and probably the best scream in metal, you should check out Devin Townsend! You’re probably familiar with Strapping Young Lad but you should check out the stuff he did after there’s a huge catalog so trying to pick a song can be difficult so one of my favorites is Higher, and the live at Plovdiv version is amazing!

Is that mark Holcomb sitting with white t-shirts 😁😁

I really hope you get into VORE or Chokehold by then as well. Both new songs

React to Chokehold. Amazing song.

🔥 🤘🏻🔥🖤🔥🤘🏻 🔥 Awesome 🔥 🔥 Mo💓re 🔥 🔥

Heyy, wanna get back to Battle Beast after a long time? I’d suggest their song “Where angels fear to fly”. They have a great music video for this song but I think they are even better live. The best quality live video of this performance is from Graspop 2022. (although they do have these RAW-live recordings which are professionally filmed but they are in a more casual setting) The Graspop video has the whole setlist but “Where angels fear to fly” starts at 18.30 and ends at 23.35. Here’s the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iJmEma-ftpeWoqs.html

You'll have a brakedown before they play a brake down I'm not crying you are

He said ethereal to describe. Instant sub for me. I bet you've used the word pathos to describe before. Or thought to throw it in there. my keyboard is moving me with rainbow direction. what a song!

Love how yal don't pause every 10 seconds

2.5 minutes of you to get to something infinitely better?

Nope, all these metalcore, deathcore & similar bands - they are so boring... Do you know why? Because they're so similar. This seventh string brought them so close together that they became so similar. This style of music brought this so-called wanting to be heavy and deep too close together. As for me, it's a damn commercialism and pressure to be popular, any values ​​from this music do not affect me. btw. you know music, you know a lot more than that. I'm waiting for the others.
