@Nukerunin Год назад

I think the heavier second half is to compliment the lyrics entirely. If you listen to them closer, the first half has him being the victim of a selfish person. In the 2nd half, Post "Ascension", he's now admitting to doing the same thing to others. I think the fact the 2nd half is heavier is probably because he acknowledges it's not entirely a good thing he's ended up this way. And even though he's "Ascended", he's lost some of his goodness in the process of protecting himself. Pretty common stuff in modern dating Lol, but masterfully put into song.

@Arakiel9 6 месяцев назад

@countdookie6987 Месяц назад

I'd say it's half correct. The most well accepted theory about this song is that it's a song between Vessel and Sleep, the first part being Vessel and the heavy part being Sleep, and the scream is specifically Vessel. This is backed up by his performance just recently where the lights change from red to blue depending on the part of the song that's currently playing.

@spoopsmagoops1911 Год назад

I understand the feeling of it being forced if you don't listen to a lot of Sleep Token. They have a lot of songs like that, but they also have a lot of songs with no metal at all in it. The way I like to describe them is they kinda just do what they want and they're amazing at all of it.

I love seeing people who are used to one particular genre reacting to Sleep Token. Since I’ve never been someone who stuck with one genre, it’s interesting to see what elements different reactors get excited about in their music. When I listened to Ascensionism, I immediately hoped you guys would give it a listen. Good analysis! I think with more listens, it will sound more cohesive.

@AshesxRez Год назад

@darkaquatus 6 месяцев назад

With Sleep Token you cannot separate the lyrics from the instrumentals. There's usually a clear journey going on, especially in longer songs like these. This particular song goes from: sadness --> blaming the other person for the pain --> deciding to grow and ascend as a person to get back at the other person --> realizing you can't and lash out because of it --> accepting the harsh truth of who you truly are --> falling into a pit of despair because you finally looked yourself in the mirror and there's no longer a way to unsee it. Yeah, this might just be their most depressing song if you pay close attention. It's kinda heart breaking.

@jemappellejade6455 Год назад

What you said about genres is so on point to Vessel's own ethos on how Sleep Token sound. In his one and only interview he said "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.” ❤

@kingkoopa_ Год назад

The whole album is legit. I know you guys aren’t old fans but the final track, Euclid, has a call back to the first track of their debut album, The Night Does Not Belong To God. This album is the conclusion of a trilogy concept for this band (Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Take Me Back To Eden.) It brings it back full circle and is absolutely amazing. Worship.

@metalboy27 Год назад

Just listened to that song in full for the first time yesterday and I heard those lyrics at the end and was like hold up! This release is definitely better than the last one, but very hard to beat One, Two, and Sundowning.

@kelzabells 8 месяцев назад

I don't think the last half was a dispature more of an affirmation. When he screams, 'you're gonna watch me ascend.' That was the change in musical direction and the story. Definitely a second, third and even fourth listener to grasp the concept.

Odd you said Granite didn’t do anything for you, but on the reaction you seemed to love it. This song is amazing and needs multiple listens as it has so much depth and elements to unpack. I think if you don’t like the song structure and switching of styles, then ST probably isn’t a good fit with you guys as that is their signature used throughout many of their songs.

@jordintyler711 Год назад

I love this song and this is my first video of yalls I've ever watched. After hearing you say it felt like the second part is forced and that it could've been 2 different songs I thought about the entire composition and thought why didn't they make it 2 different songs? In my opinion it feels like the song is his mood throughout a day thinking about the person he's singing about. It begins with a ballad when he first thinks about them, then the R&B is him distracting himself with other worldly things but doesn't last for long until he breaks back into his "ballad" feelings. Then ends it with the real way he feels just screaming "you make me wish I could disappear". Music is subjective but thinking of the song this way made me appreciate it more.

@acidwayne6928 Год назад

@masokiss23 Год назад

@chilliewhk Год назад

The lead singer has a long history of Soul and R&B on top of just incredibly good vocals in metal. I think this album shows that the band is capable of more than just metal, flexing their chops as musicians more than trying to define genres. The longer songs on the album are more like stories that use different styles to convey emotions/phases in life and the progression of the band lyrically, and stylistically, across all their albums.

I think it sounds like 3 songs bc I think this is a Sonic representation of a relationship-the ballad is him starting off wistful, melancholy & nostalgic (slow piano)…that puts the narrator into the headspace of the relationship at its best (the trap)…the djenty metal is the eventual outcome of that relationship-anger, rage despair. Then once that’s exercised, he comes back to being melancholy. It’s a sonic metaphor

I think there is an “against the grain of the suede” feel when bands/groups like Sleep Token “switch out”. But we are at a time in this world when there is a lot of impulsive changes. I am a metal head since 1988, but I enjoy and respect a lot of R&B/Synth type music. I tear this band down in every facet. Lyrically, absolutely phenomenal. This “Vessel” guy can sing the phone book and I’m in. This album was the third in an album trio. This chapter is closed. I’m curious, creatively, what the next material will sound like. I’m sure they are listening to the reviewers and critics and that will be the driving force of what their music does next. Hardcore metal, head bopping R&B, or else wise a completely different direction to show their versatility. Nice review gentleman!

Yo, at 16:59, Ryan literally says this is "a good offering." You can NOT tell me that this man isn't lowkey a huge Sleep Token fan. He may not even know it yet, but that is such a huge coincidence it's uncanny.

Sleep Token is growing on me, but I do feel similar to Ryan with many of their songs in that he either forced in a metal part or he forced in an R&B part. I love a lot of crazy prog metal bands that blend genres, but with Sleep Token it always seems like the shift in genre comes after an ambient interlude, like Vessel knew he wanted to get from point A to point B but couldn't figure out a musical path between the two so he just holds down a synth pad for 20 seconds before coming in hot. But even so, those smooth hooks find a way into your head for a week at a time.

To me heavy guitar riffs can blend well in this style of music if it works with the lyrical meaning of the song, otherwise it sounds sort of all over the place. I like when the heavy metal parts accentuate what's happening in the lyrics like a lot of good songs have done in the past. Master of Puppets was a metal song that did that super well in traditional metal.

Trap prog metal? yessir

Chokehold (heavier song) or Aqua Regia (smooth jazzy song) are songs that don’t change drastically. I think you would appreciate this approach more.

Alkaline, Hypnosis, Chokehold, The Offering, or Higher. Take your pick

Probably my favorite from this masterpiece of an album! And I definitely had the thought “Lost in Vegas HAS to react to this!”

The transition being a departure from the other song was very deliberate for storytelling. It is a change in mindset. In the beginning it is questioning why the person who left is the way they are. The vocals for the scream are "You're gonna watch me ascend." That part of the song is looking at the beginning and saying, "I am done with you, I am moving on, and you are going to see this change." Not saying it didn't feel a little forced, but just trying to show the intent behind a dramatic change.

What you guys are missing here is that it's the stark contrasts between the different movements within a Sleep Token song that makes it special. It's the secret sauce. They don't cross multiple genres in one song because of inexperience or being unpolished, they do it because it works and they do it expertly well. A simplified and less varied Sleep Token would just be boring and it would take away the thing that makes them special. IMO

My take on this one my first time through was “how is this so good, and also not even catchy?” Either way I was really impressed with the songs on the album that weren’t already released. So far one of the best 2023 albums I’d say

funny how the producer for this album produces for Bullet For My Valentine haha

Hallo boys let me disagree about the departure between two genres, the song is called ascensionism the pathos created with bending ballad intro, rap hip pop blues path till metal notes brings to the summit: the scream with the words "you let me wish I could disappear!" at this exact point there is a genre many didn't catch: classical and lyrical romance, this song works perfectely with orchestral adapting too, imagine it!
