Really gives “I made loving you a Bloodsport” a new meaning.

Fun fact: live, Vessel sings “Let's load the gun” and the crowd sings “They won't be missing you” and before breakdown, everyone shouts “Let's fucking go”

“Nobody knows what it means, but it’s provocative. It gets the people going.” I was waiting for this reaction.

I HAVE NEVER PRESSED ON A NOTIFICATION FASTER IN MY LIFE I’VE PRAYED FOR THIS VIDEO😩😩😩😩

Nazareth is such an angry song. You can just feel his torment and anguish coming out in anger. Mostly through the lyrics, on the surface it sounds so light and airy

I always feel like "Sink porcelain stained, choking on brain matter and makeup" refers back to this song. Maybe that's just me?

I've been waiting for this!! Fun fact II wrote this song all himself. When they perform it live vessel turns around to II with his hands up during the last minute of the song as to praise him.

From my understanding, “The wrath” is HIS wrath and his PISSED. “Make her eat the tape” likely means to tape her mouth shut.

Vessel sometimes puts the most devastating lyrics in the background, like Nazareth's "They wont be missing you", Distraction's "Its too late for me" and Dark Signs' "I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody"

If you look at Nazareth as if it's from Sleep to Vessel, it makes a lot more sense.

This song has always kinda make me think of drug addiction. “Knocking on your bedroom door with money” “see if she can guess what a hollow point does to a naked body” I interpret a “hollow point” and a needle

WHEN I TELL YOU I RAN HERE!

"Two" is absolutely flawless EP.

I think you need to put yourself in the mindset of someone going through a horrendous breakup (as we can see the journey of it through the trilogy) and he’s reached that, well, wrath stage. He wants his revenge. He wants to make her pay for hurting him. Maybe it’s Sleep whispering in his ear. Maybe it’s a dream where Sleep is showing him what it would be like to exact his revenge (lot of “we” in there). Sometimes you slip into these fantasies that wouldn’t ever happen (he isn’t gonna tape her mouth shut and hollow point her), but can help to settle that rage. Additionally, there have been hints of bdsm through their catalog. The idea of riding the line between pleasure and pain. While not overtly stated, you can find it if you dive down that rabbit hole (and others have gone way farther than I have). Maybe I’m a siiiiiick puppy, but the way his voice caresses the words… it’s kinda hot. Maybe I’m the only one. 😂 I think you guys will like it the more you listen to it.

If you watch the Jaws video with Nazareth playing, it makes a lot more sense. It seems that the vid may have been meant for Nazareth

I have never clicked on something so fast! So.. Sleep is not who they are singing about. In their only interview, Vessel said Sleep is a He. They are called Sleep Token because their music is a Token to sleep, an offering if you will. So the lyrical content isn't about Sleep, but for Sleep. I take it as Vessel is telling his story to Sleep. The lyrics are definitely about a very toxic relationship. Not only was she Toxic, but so was he. And he's telling the whole story. From falling in love, realizing how bad the relationship is but not wanting it to end to finally accepting the fact that it can never be. I know alot of people follow the fan driven lore that they see, but its just that. Fan driven. And thats probably one of the best things about Sleep Token.... we dont actually know a damn thing until they finally tell us. 😂

Roaches and flowers from the JAWS video

A lot of folks feel like there are metaphors for addiction in this song and what it does to you and your body. The hollow point possibly being a needle? It feels like he’s singing from the perspective of said addiction maybe. Makes sense when you see lyrics of other songs like Sugar, Like That (stuck in a tar trap), choking up chunks in TMBTE, etc

Unrelated - the scream I scrumpt when I saw Ronnie peering over Kyle’s head 😂😂😂

Whenever I listen to this song, I'm reminded of the Missing Limbs lyric "Cause it still makes my blood run cold, To remember what they did before, The stories that you never told to me." I always wonder if in Nazareth he's recounting some trauma that his Love experienced in her past.

I can't wait for yall to hear Jericho. It's one of my favorites.

I didn’t think it had much of a replay value. And then something clicked. And then it did. A really magnificent piece of music.

One of my favourites out of their whole catalogue. It's dark and angry and sexy.

I've seen a lot of people talking about these lyrics. The top consensus is he may be talking about an encounter with a prostitute? Whatever he's talking about, I FUCKING love it.

White roses symbolize loyalty, purity, and innocence!

7:05 just magical.

I can't believe I'm seeing them live on tuesday, hopefully performing this song. 💚💙💜 This song mashed me feel two different ways at once, but then again, which song of theirs doesn't? Making ugly things somehow beautiful is an art form in of itself.

I came across Sleep Token when all they had released was One and Calcutta. Without the context of the rest of their discography and what Sleep Token was really all about (how a toxic relationship affected Vessel), Two is it's own story entirely. Calcutta is a vision from Sleep in his dreams, something that is so beautiful and marvelous that it makes him feel "whole again." Nazareth is either a ritual he is performing to feel that way again or the carrying out of said vision he saw, "unaliving" a prostitute. And Jericho is what he does... AFTER that. I realize now that this probably isn't the real intent behind the songs after hearing everything else they've done, but that head canon will probably always be how I view Two. Love the videos guys, and I can't wait to see the reaction for Jericho

I never clicked so damn fast!! I wanted to see you both go through your thoughts and feelings with this song, it did not disappoint and now you understand why people wanted you to listen to this ASAP 🙏🏻 To me this song is about a relationship Vessel was in with someone, and it’s about discovering how toxic both people are and how it’s better left apart from one another… not with Sleep

That roach is in the beginning of “JAWS”. Watch that music video again. This song has a connection. Another rabbit hole! Worship!

Im always happy when i see reaction to sleep token

This is one of their best songs, and the lyrics are a little more agressive but I always interpreted that it was like talking about the early stages of a really bad breakup, when the anger and all the destructive energy consumes everything in our thoughts.. it’s ugly and it’s not right, but those moments exists when we’re mourning and I think it’s just really honest to put it out.. The first time I heard it made me feel like I was staring at a open wound

this reaction was everything i wanted to be, i’ve been waiting for the reaction to the second verse since i found your guys’ videos and it did not disappoint - especially your reaction to the f-bomb😆😆

There’s a live video of this from a few years ago that lives rent free in my head 🙃

Been waiting YEARS for this. Couldn''t hit play and like fast enough. #Worship

this is the BEST video to come home from a shitty work day to in my subscription feed - I CANT WAIT TO WATCHHHHHH

IT'S THE MOMENT WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

There’s a podcast that dissects all of Sleep Token’s songs, and his theory for Nazareth was that this is actually Sleep talking Vessel into doing these things. Very interesting!! Edit to add the name of the podcast- Sleep Study Podcast 🥰

Since we're coming up on 'Jericho' and the end of the great Sleep Token album journey, will you guys be reacting to II's Drumeo offerings? And Sleep Token's cover of 'Is It Really You' (originally by Loathe) is a must too - please!

Almost fell off my bed seeing this uplaod!!

Omg so excited! Commenting before I see the reaction. 😂

Finally! I could not wait for you guys to do this song! I just knew you would like it. ❤

Been waiting for this and your reaction to 'that' line! This is Vessel's therapy and when the pain finally hit him upon reflection of his failed toxic relationship. Album #4 coming Q2 2025...

White roses meaning innocence [Vessel] and black doves meaning [Sleep]. So hes leaving the roses. The innocence and picking up the sword. He recognizes the innocence is gone and look at him now. Sleep is the shepherd, indoctrinating him. It all makes sense.

Been waiting for this since you guys started the journey! This one is my favorite

Look at the names of the songs and what the names mean and the places were in history and put them together. It'll blow your mind.

I've been waiting for this since you started the journey!!! This one is my favorite

Yay, you did it!

Hell yeah I’ve been waiting for this one

AHHHHH YES!!! Nazareth is such an AMAZING SONG!!! I’ve never been so excited to be early to a video like this

Most excited for “is it really you?” 😮‍💨 and TWTYW

I've started the journey with this song and you guys are almost ending it, but here i am reliving it with you all around! keep it up

This is the exact reaction I was hoping you guys would have! Nazareth and TMBTE are my top 2 most listened to songs.

I never heard this song until i was at the concert and that hit me so much it was crazy experience. One of my fav songs since then

One of my fave ST tracks and what got me into them in the first place (along with Jaws and Calcutta) Just fantastic, and the drops at the end deserve all the volume you can muster.

Guys I have been binging these reaction videos for the last few days and they are amazinggg, I absolutely love seeing your reactions and remembering the feeling of hearing the songs for the first time so thank you! Now just waiting for Is It Really You 😁

This is the one I’ve been waiting for 😂

The breakdown makes me think of the breakdown in Jaws and i love it

This has easily risen to one of my favorite tracks from Sleep Token, it's such a good song

Love seeing Ronnie behind y'all!!

The scream I scrum when I saw you guys finally did this song!!!!

Much love from Sudbury Ontario Canada

This EP is everything!!!!

I have heard some theories that jaws and nazereth were two different perspectives of the situation, just thought i would say this

I love this one. Took me a few times also. Watch it live it’s fantastic. iii is always so animated in this one.

Woww this was intense and still so good 😎 This band is genius!

I had the privilege of watching them live playing this song and it was amazing

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION FOR ALMOST A YEAR 😂😂

I feel like I’ve waited my whole life for this moment

YESSSSSS LET'S GO!!!! I gotta truley thankyou for turning me onto Sleep Token. Im eternally greatful ❤😊😊

The best guys in da bizz!

While She Sleeps - To The Flowers next!

I’M SO READY

YESSSSS!!!!!! Nazareth is one of my ultimate favorite sleepy boys songs

I am so in love with this song. Vessel is totally killing it here, I really like his angry side that we don't get to see so much.

Nazareth is such a dope and unique song in their discography. Glad you guys were finally able to experience it! One thing that occurred to me with the lyrics and kinda connecting things together is "And I'll see you when the wrath comes. Knocking on your bedroom door with money" And in Take Me Back to Eden he says "But I'll take a pound of your flesh before you take a piece of my paystub" So those are the only two points I see where money as a concept are mentioned and they seem to link, but I'm not too sure. Also I've heard of some people linking the rap section in TMBTE to Nazareth as well, "Well, yeah, I spit blood when I wake up Sink porcelain stained, choking up brain matter and make-up" and "Let's load the gun Make her eat the tape in the bathroom mirror See if she can guess what A hollow point does to a naked body". It makes it feel like the rap section in TMBTE is the aftermath of "seeing what a hollow point does to a naked body" in my mind and putting those things together gives off a concept about TRIGGER WARNING an unsuccessful "unaliving" attempt. It seems like it doesn't make sense because in Nazareth it's from the perspective of him doing it to someone, where as in TMBTE it's more so representing a self-perspective. I could be completely wrong but just things to think about linking the two songs! Overall, I feel like there is a link between Nazareth and the rap section of TMBTE. Great reaction as always! can't wait for the next one!

YES FINALLY

My fav

Best ST song till this day imo. Lyrics, instrumental, voice technic, building up, perfect drop, it has everything!

The roach was also in the video for Jaws! It was also one of the Ludin for the visualizer for chokehold only in battle armour. I do not know what that means but it’s there. Edit: it’s also adorable in its little battle armour.

IDK, but the more I think about it, the "raft" Vessel refers to makes me think of Charon, the ferryman from Greek mythology. Maybe its symbolic of the "death" of a relationship that has been steadily going bad for awhile. Either way, this reaction vid made my day and once again proves that yes, ST do NOT miss on any of their songs.

3:45 the way my job just stopped bobbing his head 😂

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤. The keyboard reminds me of Radiohead 'eiirp'

*waving at Ronnie in the background* 😀

Looking at the mask at the end of the video reminds me of when vessel shows his face in "Fall for me" and the scars are on the same side of his face. Seems to match pretty well.

If you listen to this song and put on the jaws video with no sound you’ll see they go together

I play the hell out of this song! ❤

I've been waiting for y'all to react to this song since I found your channel and saw that you were going through all of Sleep Token's discography. Your reactions to the start of the second verse were pretty much exactly what I expected 😂 Great song, but the lyrics are... certainly something.

I literally got goosebumps watching you hearing Nazareth, I wish I got the opportunity to hear it for the first time again 🥹🥹 and can’t wait for you to do my absolute favorite song of them, Jaws

I'm here thank you 😍😍😍

FINALLY!!!🎉🔥🔥

Finally Nazareth ❤ one of the best songs in my opinion! Worship ❤

Yesssss!!!!!

"I've been waiting f0or this one!"

This is what I love about Sleep Token is all the different interpretations that everyone has. For me, personally, I believe that this song is Sleep speaking to Vessel and at this time Vessel has a lover and Sleep is jealous of the love that Vessel has for this other person and Sleep wants Vessel all to himself.

Jeff Buckley's album Grace would be an absolute treat if you guys are looking for more artists. One of the best voices I've ever heard.

It is his inspiration that speaks to him, as I interpret it

Hell yeah

ohhhh waiting for Jericho!!

i cant be the only one hearing the nazareth sound in TMBTE
