Sleep Token kicked off their 2023 US Tour at the Blue Ridge Rock Festival in Danville VA. Check out their performance of Chokehold
Sleep Token Chokehold Lyrics
When we were made
It was no accident
We were tangled up like branches in a flood
I come as a blade
A sacred guardian
So you keep me sharp and test my worth in blood
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a-
Beneath the stormy seas
Above the mountain peaks
It's all the same to me
It makes no difference
I've seen my days unfold
Done the impossible
I'd turn my walls to gold
To bring you home again
So show me that which I cannot see
Even if it hurts me
Even if I can't sleep
Oh, and though we act out of our holy duty to be constantly awake
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
Even if it hurts me
Even if I can't sleep
Show me the way
His voice is damn near ethereal . I'm not sure how I lived without Sleep Token , but I can tell you now , that's never happening ever again . This is music .
It’s good. Just feel like it’s lacking in bit of vocal range . Very monotone
@@metallicaguy123you can’t be serious!
beneath the stormy seas above the mountains peaks it's all the same to me it's makes no difference.. I just love that line so much I don't know why
I was there for this show. First time I ever even heard of them and was immediately hooked.
Yeah, it's like that. Greatest band on Earth.
Me too!! Exact same story.
Going to see them at Aftershock next week. I was telling my buddy how amazing it must be if the first time hearing them were live. Congrats dude.
i seen them in slipknots pre show in amsterdam.... never heard of em.... thought vessel's singing was a bit weird, even mocked them a bit....untill he played rain....from then im a sponge, and have em on repeat since 4 months now :D
@@paulwaddell7633AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA NO
This band massages the folds in my brain and soothes my soul... something special for sure.
His voice 😍 he could sing the phone book and I'd listen. The timbre of his voice is beautiful.
Thanks for this!!! The sound is incredible and the bass guitar is crispier than usual. The band sounds massive. Screaming crowd when Vessel enters made me very proud to be a fan!!!!
Es muy hermoso esto, sobre todo si sabes que por años estuvieron ahí, muchos no sabían de ellos, de esa calidad musical (aunque otros digan que no hay realmente mucho, para mí hay talento) espero que un día vengan a México. Ellos, en especial este año, significaron para mí más de lo que puedo decir con palabras.
I noticed the bass standout in the mix too. Good ear.
His voice is so eerie and melodic it sends chills down my spine as well as relaxes me
I just found them on Spotify and immediately became hooked. I came here to find a live performance and this was the video I chose. Phenomenal!!!!
I can’t get enough.
There different! Different isn't Always Good. But this time I made a damn good choice!
My friend turned me onto them. I'm Diggin em so far...🤘🏽
I just found this band a week ago. WOW!!!!!!!Amazing 😮
Sleep Token is unbelievable
Something else indeed. ❤️🖤🖤🖤❤️
Dudes got energy. Stored emotions. Soul has returned to music people.
There’s always been soul in music. You just weren’t looking in the right places.
Only reason we went to Blue Ridge! Spent over 2 hours in traffic, finally got in and caught the last 90 seconds of The Offering. So bummed!!!
I didn’t even get in. Soooooo angry
Specifically bought tickets to see sleep token only. It was fricken awful! We sprinted and were able to catch rain and the offering and left immediately after. Never been more heartbroken in my life. They are truly amazing.
that same thing happened to me seeing Lorna shore in Alpharetta not long ago! I heard in a sea of fire start from the parking lot and it was their last song
Ran 3 miles earlier listening to this band. Their music is cathartic
One thing is clear for me - once they play somewhere near me - I'll be there!
We missed 90% of this set. The only reason we bought tickets. Thank you for the amazing video. ❤
You’re welcome we have 2 more up as well. Thanks for watching please subscribe if you haven’t.
I missed about half the set because the Smart Punk stage being postponed for a short and then the long set up time for EC. But I was there for EC more than anyone
Crazy how his clean vocal didn't deteriorated from the album version
He sounds Even better live. More nuances, falsettos and vocal runs.
Vess is insanely talented
This is a killer video and the audio is really good. Love Sleep Token! I just recently found them on Spotify.
Incredible performance, great vocals and alluring atmosphere.
I remember watching your videos of their performance last year! Incredible how far they’ve come.
Was just watching Sleep Token's Hypnosis on your channel a few minutes ago. Thanks for posting these. Also really liking the Bad Omens performances.
Vessel in the daylight.....yes please 🔥
I'm just now hearing these guys for the first time and I love the the change ups from metal to almost a 70's sound or so it seems...Really like this band!!! 🤘
I was at the festival and that's the first time I've ever heard this song and I love all of your songs now I have been up all night listening to your music I'm so amazed and so impressed
I almost cried when I saw them
THE ONLY group we got to see- I'm addicted!!! THe lyrics are so sensual and the music permeates my being!!
Not my usual music but made me a fan seeing in person
He looks outstanding.
God I wish i didn't have to leave, I wanted to see them live so bad.. ;;;
I was literally standing probably 5 feet to your left!
Thank you!!! Your live videos are always top notch. Thanks for sharing ST, hoping there’s more to come!
This is the best audio hands down!!!
Tabarnak!!! The Guy can sing 1000% !!! love that!!!
Hahaha colisse oui!
very cool band their sound is so unique
Amazing
What a performance it was! Sucks every other night was cancelled! The storm that blew through was unbelievable! We dropped our canopies down low just in time and held on for dear life. A lot of people lost absolutely everything.. it Felt like a damn hurricane!
My son was camping too and did lose his canopy...I was in vip and got soaked with the horizontal wind
THESE ANCIENT CANOPIES
I was blessed to be able to worship this night.
Yeah, thanks for sharing that. I know the weekend was a disaster but fuck me that was brilliant and I hate it for everyone involved that nothing worked out very well.
Really has a great vibrato!
Yes, that alone is proof he is not using pitch correction as some here believe.
Oh totally! No chance he’s using pitch correct.
Can’t wait to see them later this month
I'm so upset I couldn't be there this year 😭😭
This is soooo good!!! 😍😍
Absolutely love this! Wish I could see them here in AZ, but sadly now this time around so thank you for allowing me hear him live. Never disappoints
Wacken 2024 pleaseeeee 😢😭
This video audio is on another level, holy snikies! SLeepTOken I'm coming for ya:)
É P I C O ! ❤
I like ur pic
I wish the festival would have let people in 😞
They stopped letting people in so I missed all the bands that I traveled there for, including sleep token 😭
Whoever that girl is singing that backing vocals, she killed it
Damn they sound good live! See you guys next week in Pomona!! ❤😈
So annoyingly good. I need to see these dudes live
Would love to see Vessel and Lorde in a dance off
What a band!
Damn, I would be okay even if only that snare alone was the whole show...
WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Your videos are the gold standard. Vessel walking out gave me goosebumps. One week countdown until I see them in Minneapolis. Can't...wait! Edit - you did an incredible job of capturing everybody in the band. What phone/camera do you use? The sound was so clear on yours. My phone could not handle the bass and drum hits - they were very muffled/distorted.
Sleep Token, BucketHead and Howard Jones from KillSwitch Engage would be an interesting collab
Best band out, hands down man. Puts me in a complete trance
Es un monstruo🌬🔥🔥
When people say metal singers just scream, send them here.
Was there but didn't get to see them, what a fucking bummer. Blue Ridge Rock Fest was an awful first fest experience, if only I had found these guys sooner. Thanks for the video though, great audio.
God how nice sounds like so many women took to sleep token too... Which it definitely is a baby making metal sound as they have been calling it in some feeds... Everyone can get into this. I know I got obsessed as well! Love sleep token so much!!!
If anyone has the part where it was super quite and I screamed “ Vessel have my babies “ that’d be great lmao
Sounds better live than in studio.
no, they sound pretty much the same as in the studio, just with a bit more bass. their live-performance however, is the best I have ever seen
@@fredyklug3512in studio their music sounds absolutely awful all the autotune ruins it but live he doesn’t use it so it sounds actually pretty good
@@Dragginfleye I would guess he's using live autotune (very common) at times as well....especially for certain key moments like choruses that need to be top-tier. I could be wrong, but it's so common nowadays that I would not be surprised.
@cpjds1 pay attention to his insane vibrato. Vibrato can't be replicated and altered with melodyne or autotune, it creates ugly remnants, very audible. He definitely doesn't use that. There's echo, and reverb on his tech, but no pitch correction whatsoever.
Of the bands I actually got to see at blue ridge
Jazz hands yahh
I was here!! I have videos!! Can't wait to show them!!!
#WeSurvivedBlueRidgeRockFestival2023
Yeah it was rough this year! Let me know if you’d be interested in upload your videos here for our viewers.
It would be super awesome if people would stfu and listen, you can hear hella people just wandering around and talking, omfg
4:25-4:31 is this the live vocal or is this a prerecorded track vocal? Because it's absolutely insane and massive if live.
Live but with some effects on to boost it. Looks like he presses an effects pedal with his foot at the start of it
would be incrible you post Vore, The Summoning, Rain, All songs please!!
this should be an ending credit song for a dark spiderman movie
vocalist and my lvl 90 warlock have the same outfit
wish will ramos came out with them
That would’ve been massive!!🤘🤘
why there is no HQ live from this band...
I'm just here for II
have they ever heard of cult of luna ? feels like they have.......
We were here for this, just before everything got awful.
It’s the dude from fallout boy singing
I would like if they had keyboard player then using backing tracks
they look kinda slow... i don't know it's the right word or not but i thought this song live would be way more hype
People saying it sounds great, you can barely even hear the guitar. May be because of the recording being so close to the stage, but sounds horrible
this music is so amazing it is so annoying to hear voices chatting or screaming all over spoiling it. i wish the ticket came with a " shut up or you will be fined " warning so everyone kept quiet 😭
😹😹😹
lol 😂
AAAAAAAAAAAA
rien a voir avec ce qu on nous avait vendue
ok but can vess actually see
So wish I could have seen them. Blue ridge was a shit show. Waited in line for hours trying to get in that day only to be turned around. Then cancelled the next two days.
😴😴😴😴😴
Will Ramos vocals on this are wayyyy better!
what character in a games does he remind me off ??? ....some of the worst audio..Iphone?
This is what it Will did better .not metal
There truly is no hope for a lot of the younger generation. This is sad.
The bassist always plays the interlude in a unecessary way..just following the chords would be awesome.
im not here to lick ass, its not a flavor i agree with. tool really influenced but then look all the spawns its like tool mixed with this, or tool mixed with that. but all too often im finding these things to be becoming more ritualistic in delivery. not good
Shiat
I don't get everyone losing their minds over this band. They're alright. Nothing special.
Says you….
Sorry but an over hyped whatever this is. Heard about them so checked them out, some people have lost their hearing calling this crap music. I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music but I don't even know what to call this other than crap.
Wtf…
He's not singing.
????
Greatest band on Earth.
cant really understand the fervour this band generates. Like they take their image from black metal, their sounds are a mix of rap to goth to metal without being able to settle where they belong.
Not shit posting, I guess it's just not for me and that's fine.
Yeah, seems like it's going to be a trend the next decade 😅😂
Rap/Goth/Country but with the Hard Rock edge and wearing costumes, stage theatrics 😅
All these bands popping up or getting Tiktok famous the past 5 years or so😅
Their intention was never to establish themselves in their own genre. Since their early work, you could notice that they were always trying to bring elements from various genres into their music. For those who are very conservative in relation to this, it must be a nightmare to have such a "different" band, but for those who want something fresh, something new in the world of music, it's a great gift. For many people, Sleep Token gives us what we didn't even know we wanted
Sorry for my English, it's not my first language and I'm still learning.
Yeah, that's rather the point, and I think the reason most of us that do enjoy them, enjoy them so much. It's certainly true for me, anyway. It's not that they're not able to settle, but that they have no interest in settling "where they belong." I can see where it wouldn't be for everyone, though.
