I know im not in the majority here, but I've never been the biggest Sleep Token fan. They're good, no question. The Singer is undoubtedly talented, can't deny it. I just found myself overall unmoved most of the time. While "The Summoning" takes some twists and turns that I didn't expect, I can confidently say that if this is how their new stuff is sounding, this may be the starting point of my Sleep Token fandom. Lets hang while I react to and analyze to Sleep Token "The Summoning"!

The more I listen to the song the more I get the genre switch at the end. Especially listening to how the vocals are delivered specifically on the line "I've got a river running right into you." The first half it's almost live he's angry about, being controlling or yearning for something, the jazzy part when that part comes in he's singing it in full confidence. It's like watching a person's mindset about a relationship (or whatever it may be) change completely.

Agreed. What’s great about it even being out tho is the singer doesn’t have a public profile, nor any more media content like live videos (atleast anymore, besides like 2 videos from his old project), so most people don’t even know what he looks like anymore. Which is funny bc he hangs out in the crowd a lot at shows and no one even recognizes him😂

@freedragoons Год назад

@KardavoxAcademy I was kinda caught off by it my first few listens as well. For me, it was the amount of time between it and the rest of the song. I love the ambiance and I love the funk, but it was just so disconnected.

@opart Год назад

I think they are trying to do too much in one go. There is nu metal vocals, there is growls and screams, there is your pop part, and dreamy ambient. Essentially it's pop music with some ambient and djenty arrangements. Individually these parts sounds good, love the solo, love the heavy drops, love the reverb part, but overall these cancel each other out. The breathing and the pop vocals don't seem genuine though, with all the high production quality, it's all too contrived. Also, can we talk about lyrics ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ : "Oh, and my love Did I mistake you for a sign from God Or are you really here to cut me off? Or maybe just to turn me on Cause these days I would be lying if I told you that I didn't wish that I could be your man Or maybe make a good girl bad" Anyway, call me old fashioned, but I like my music way more raw. Pass for me.

This was my first intro to Sleep Token and it took me two listens to Get It, then I went back and binged Sundowning and This Place Will Become Your Tomb. I do have to say, even though I think Vessel has always been a very talented vocalist, it is VERY evident that he's been working with a vocal coach between albums. His vocals in all of the new singles are NUTS, and I get rly excited when an artist with a lot of skill will STILL put in the work to hone their craft, even if they were talented enough to skate by without the additional practice/work. Again, Vessel's vocal ability has always been VERY good, but he decided to become even BETTER and I have mad respect for that. Also this was a rly cool video on learning about screaming and such!

The reason I like Sleep Token is something about the way they share the **trauma** - hits me right in my own on top of their music and the vocals just hitting me deep in the like etherial musical vibe. It's almost like ASMR if ASMR was music. idk how to describe it. Especially when they incorporate snaps, my ears go brr. Like 'levitate', just makes me cry every single time. Hits me somewhere deep in my dark soul and I love it.

I really appreciate your explanation on how to develop from one‘s speaking voice on. I am generally a little more in the upper tones it seems and for a long time I thought my full chest voice is what I need for singing, then one day (after having been told a few times I should not sing and since then have suppressed it really) the song Riptide really was stuck in my head and I hummed and sang along in the bathroom… what a break through. Finally understood why long serious talking exhausts my voice: I would activate a performative lower voice that strained my throat; but most of my speaking and my easiest singing actually takes place in the front of my mouth and it is easiest and feels most comfortable to have resonance in my mouth or head. Working from here on, maybe your exercises help me develop it more!

The ending and the genre switch kind of felt like a release of tension. Most of the song has a darker sound to it and the ending feels more the singer is finally at peace and feela more Free. I guess this song also resonates differently with people depending on how they emotional feel. I didn't really find the switch weird it felt natural to me but I personally think metal can blend well with almost any genre

I only heard about ST after the full album release. I was driving home from work and saw the album art and thought it looked interesting. Anyway, I listened to part of Chokehold and thought his voice was interesting. Then The Summoning played and that’s when I realized there was something different about this band. When the last part started I was like “What?!?!” I would say it’s not my favorite on the album but it’s what hooked me and I do like it.

FFX To FFXIII, what a great analogy for that epic ethereal part!!! Went from defshuggah to FF to Childish Gambino's Redbone in the same song, what a rollercoaster. Great reaction vid!!!!

I did not like Sleep Token at all when I first heard them in May when their latest album released, I thought it sounded to simple for. I like more technical metal and hard rock. So I can def understand if anybody feel unmoved by Sleep Token, I did too, I felt I did not understand what people thought was so great about them, nothing special at all I thought. But his voice and their excellent ambient stuff and atmosphere in a lot of their songs really grew on me last week when I listened once more to their Eden album in my car at high cruising speed ;) Now I have come to really like this Eden album, especially the title track. He has a very special voice and I actually like the RnB and other influences they have in their music. A bit of a different breeze to all the melodic death, blackened death metal and stuff I listen to normally.

Don't worry about starting where you want to end up...thanks for the good advice

The lead singer sounds like a British officer from one of the Pirate of the Caribbean movies decided to start a band and sing about how much he loves/hates Jack Sparrow.

You're gonna have to do Vore. Vore single-handedly changed my mind about Sleep Token. Now I'm going through all their songs and really enjoying them.

@matheusmoda695 Год назад

I missed your reactions dude :D glad you're back. I think you should take a listen to Kim Dracula - Make me Famous, there's a lot of harsh vocals there :)

@jakewetherall4505 Год назад

You should react to "Sleep Token - Blood Sport (from the room below)" His voice walks a fine line between clean and harsh in that video, and I'd love to see how you'd break down his technique.

That was my intro to the band. I’m hooked.

@DarkShadow1953 Год назад

I learned about Sleep Token through Noah Sebastian from Bad Omens. It took me a few listens but I fell in love. You should check out Gods that's another screaming song.

I just found your channel, excellent video and breakdown. I think you would enjoy the new Ne Obliviscaris track titled Equus. They have an upcoming album next month. Absolutely one of my favorite tracks in recent memory.

Not sure if you've heard Vore (I assume you have) but man... that is a showcase of vocal talent.

Loved the reaction! Just an FYI - Falling in Reverse released a new song too that I’d love to see the reaction for! I loved your past FIR reactions!

@DjentyB Год назад

They scream pretty rarely and will use it as seasoning in some songs, but their song Gods is full of screams and is super heavy. I honestly hope they make more heavier tracks like Gods

@boldroast1197 Год назад

If you aren’t a fan…it’s ok. I tried but classifying them as a metal band makes me expect certain things musically. They don’t deliver within that genre very well.

@carsonlewis7901 Год назад

I think you really have to create space for them to just be Sleep Token, no way to classify these guys. I still don’t know what kind of music they play. All I say is if you EVER get the chance to see them live, take it!

@wavewithus4081 Год назад

In my head canon they're a prog metal band. I found ST through a progmetal forum too and it helped with my expectations. I can be surprised by the band but still 'expect' these guys to mix hiphop with rnb with metal with pop and occasionally put out a acapella/ballad track. They do whatever and go a lot of places musically, but after a while you start recognizing their 'sleep token song formula' lol and by that point you're fully invested :p

@samanthar1214 Год назад

Prog pop ambient metal lol

@FluffyThieves Год назад

This is one of those cases where I think genres are a net negative. You see people arguing that they aren't a metal band, arguing that they aren't a pop band, etc. etc. They dip their toes into a bunch of different genres, which is rad. Unfortunately, that also leads to metal elitists losing their collective minds over them being talked about by metal music outlets.

@PhilcoreTheLoud Год назад

Yo! What's with the Disney glove, Mickey Mark? :D Great video, as always. I just can't really get THAT connection with Sleep Token but I do appreciate their musical abilities and they do have some cool ideas. And no question their vocalist is super good. It's just a question of personal taste and says absolutely nothing about the quality of the band. I can very well see why there's so much hype around them right now. They just don't "kick" me personally and that is perfectly fine.
