Personally I think the best approach is a full album playthrough top to bottom, there's a huge musical journey that shifts tonalities, genres, light and dark to reach this song that reflects back on the start of the album.
Their drummer II plays the hip hop parts too, he uses drum pads. You can tell it's being played rather than programmed because he adds little fills here and there
His voice is just amazing ST are the future of perfect music. Just an incredible band who deserve recognition just pure talent the whole group. Vessel has the best vocals ever. WORSHIP
Around the 11:50 mark of your video that’s Chokehold lyrics in the background. I would try Offering from II on there RU-vid page or Drumeo interview with II
“Life is dark. Life is bright. Life is ugly. Life is beautiful. Don’t get lost in genres, they disorient you. Music is for everyone.” - Vessel 2017 He is the main singer of Sleep Token and he is breaking the stereotype on genres if you listen to all of his albums in order you will notice how beautiful it is when you mix genres like this. 🫶🏻
I ended up going from the very beginning of the discography after I dived down the rabbit hole. I've had to pull over to ugly cry because of them. They added something to my life. Like an emotional head pat with an " its ok to feel"
I recommend you follow Chokehold, Ascensionism and Granite from the new album, then look for Alkaline, the love you want, The Offerinf, Higher, Gods, Sugar, Blood Sport, I think that covers the ranges in which the band moves. However, I recommend that you listen to all 3 albums. By the way....Welcome to the rabbit hole. Worship 🖤
Like Pauline won the Drumeo Rock artist of the year.. II won the heavy metal drummer of the year. which is fan voted but the hosts said both Pau and II had some of the biggest fan responses and wins theyve seen. For me Sleep Token is one of those bands I have to be in the right mindset to listen to, somedays it just doesnt do it for me. but they are a great band no doubt. cool reaction and video gj and cioa for now
Nice reaction guys. Sleep Token has been growing n me lately. I hope you'll get back to some BAND-MAID soon. It's been months. I think you would dig "Rinne" or "Secret My Lips".
noooo 😭😭😭 why no lyrics, this song is 70% less sense impressive without the lyrics (its a masterpiece in every way but most reactioners don't appreciate the absolute mastery that is Vessel's lyrics)
