I am so happy that you guys digested these earlier tracks the way you did with the lyrics. The music doesn’t sink in unless you understand the gravity of what Vessel is being faced with in this relationship and I think the earlier EPs One and Two have been so lost on some reactors and it’s disappointing because they’re there for more of music instead of the lore/lyrics. When you can read and understand where Vessel is at, then you hear how totally opposite the musical composition makes you feel, it’s foreshadowing of what’s to come and the kind of peril he’s being faced with. The proverbial bough did break and he clung on-to his demise-while the other party stuck around only to drag him through the misery. Ironically, these collections also seem to be the happiest point of the relationship, which is so messed up. One and Two are so symbolic in the formation of Vessel and the future of this dark, twisted, and fucked up relationship he becomes bound two and although the music is much more sinister in feeling, the long instrumentals and the interludes in the tracks feel like they are meant to be representations of the turmoil. They’re exactly what you said: Conflicts. Keep it up. You guys are going to get so much love and support going on this journey and we are so happy to go on it with you. 10/10. Worship 🖤✨🌙
I feel like this song almost talks about running closely alongside depression and su!c!d€ ideation. “You could stay alive, just tell me that you notice, even in the dark, the way I left you breathing” almost like depression is calling him, but allowed him to stay just this night. “Sometimes when we touch, Everything we love resets” sometimes when he hurts himself? When the feelings and actions finally touch? “It’s only just enough, even when we run, with death” to me sounds like it’s just enough for him to teeter on that fine line between life and death. And he could find release over the sorrow days by running with it. But, in Euclid, the bough finally breaks and instead of him succumbing to the darkness, it broke through and he found something new
The beauty of Sleep Token is that you can dive as deep as you can into the intricacies of the lyrics and the music, and still find more depths to plunge into. The simplicity of their concept of anonymity extends from their masks to their music. There is no one set interpretation and that is why people keep listening to them over and over again.
I take it as sometimes they get close again or the relationship is good/repaired JUST ENOUGH to keep them together, even when things become so bad, dangerous and painful. “Just tell me that you noticed, even in the dark, the way I left you breathing” feels like, he saying that he showed mercy and understanding where that wasn’t returned in this toxic relationship. He’s reminding them that even in the worst times together, he never shot to kill or brought out his ammo to hurt them. The EPs are introductions into the relationship and its dynamics. “The Night Does Not Belong to God” album is the beginning of the relationship and the struggles as rose tinted glasses come off but, he’s too far gone.
The story they crafted is one of the best i got to experience in my short life as of now, if you go back to the first song of their first album it ends with,"like lovers in twin," the ending of the last song on their newest album ends with the same line its crazy how good it is
There is a youtuber who talks about his interpretation of the story through the songs and it makes the most sense to me the video is called, "The Sleep Token Trilogy" by Royston Charmaine you should check it out amazing video
I think y'all would hear so much more with headphones! There's so much ambiance and production that gets missed without headphones. Can't wait for Two!
Also, if you're using Genius lyrics, that might be why you saw real names previously. They had Vessel and II's real names previously, but I think they've finally updated everything.
EarthScorcher you know we love your perspective and takes. We have a list of things that we are going to implement soon to make this experience better for you guys and us. We have a few more videos to edit and get out but the new look should be here soon.
Toxic is the basis of the relationship he has with Sleep. But there are so many different interpretations and that's part of the allure. People can put their own experiences into the song and make it make sense for them. The music is so expressive as well. It's like Lil Man said, you could feel the dark vibe before the music even started so all of Vessel's feelings are beautifully expressed musically, the frustration, anger, sorrow and angst. It all comes out in the music. Love seeing y'all do this journey. Now onto two!! I'm so excited 😁 can't wait. Worship
We were struggling! And I definitely underestimated trying to remember things on the fly. Really appreciate the support too! You guys have made this much more enjoyable
Imo there is a call back to “we can stay suspended even when the bough breaks” in High Water “and I know you still bear the weight or your own existence but you’ll never bear the weight of two” Makes notes he says “don’t lie to me in this song” In Say That You Will” he tells her “say that you will even if you won’t” So much to unpack lol Another fun fact is it’s all Vessel on this ep, ii joins on the second ep
@@UncleTrebor You guys deserve it for sure, it's definitely one of the better reaction channels in recent times. Congratulations and good luck for the future.🎉🧨🎈
Love watching yalls videos, I hope in the future as my son grows we stay close like yall do!! Side note- Breakk.away heavily inspired by ST musically and more importantly Lyrically!! Don’t sleep on them :-)

This is 💯!! There's not a lot of songwriters that can do that...

I have to agree... I'll have to give it some more thought, but it doesn't come to mind now!

He is still talking about the loss of life between the two. Lots of heartache there. Lots of confusion.
Oh ok! Why do you say that?
@@UncleTrebor is there somewhere I can message you? A lot of people have their own idea of what happened and don’t like to hear the truth.
@@Vessellove77 IG: @uncle.trebor
@@UncleTrebor I just realized what IG stands for. lol. I’m lame
Love watching yalls videos, I hope in the future as my son grows we stay close like yall do!!
Side note- Breakk.away heavily inspired by ST musically and more importantly Lyrically!! Don’t sleep on them :-)
Ok! What song should we start with?
@@UncleTrebor they only have 3 so far
Well shit that makes it easy lol
In order it goes- I'll See You When the Night Comes, Outside, then Secret. They're great and the female lead singer has a beautiful voice. Enjoy!
