Sleep Token are a masked, anonymous collective of musicians; united by their worship of an ancient deity crudely dubbed "Sleep", since no modern tongue can properly express it's name.
This being once held great power, bestowing ancient civilisations with the gift of dreams, and the curse of nightmares.
Even today, though faded from prominence, 'Sleep' yet lurks in the subconscious minds of man, woman, and child alike. Fragments of beauty, horror, anguish, pain, happiness, joy, anger, disgust, and fear coalesce to create expansive, emotionally textured music that simultaneously embodies the darkest, and the brightest abstract thoughts. He has seen them. He has felt them. He is everywhere.
Sleep Token, led by the perpetually tormented, supremely talented Vessel, creates music that brings to the fore our most submerged thoughts and feelings, coaxing them from the desolate, terrifying caves of our subconscious mind.
Lyrics:
The daylight recedes
In unison, this room
Buries the hours
Like death, in motion
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation quiet and loamy
Your name is a sin
I breathe, like oxygen
Caught in the careless
Arms, of lust again
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation quiet and loamy
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation quiet and loamy
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
i love to read all these new coments because beside the become a pretty popular band there is people still looking for their old stuff. love you all
It started as a box of cookies "let's see how this tastes" and now I am like Cookie Monster "GIMME MORE!!!!"
Much Love, Worship!
worship
i'm so fucking happy i discovered sleep token
me in this moment
I love how young he sounds here, a true transition from Vessel's previous musical works to ST
Worship ❤
previous works?
@@Erislon Though they want to remain anonymous, it's easy enough to find the members' identities if you really want to. Vessel in particular had another project before Sleep Token, with ST's I EP being greatly influenced by that previous project's sound.
This. I also love how there are two subtly different endings to FOE between the Band Camp and streaming platform releases, and his piano instrumental is somehow even more emotional.
Been an avid sleep token fan since 2016, I’ve been preaching how good they are since One, they deserve all the success in the world.
This is my first time hearing them and i gotta say
This is amazing
They absolutely deserve their success. It’s a shame that people will hate on them because they‘re quite popular now. They are not overhyped, just really, really talented.
Well.... I guess you suck as a preacher then because the masses didn't really hear them until about 2019! 🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️😂🤣
Oh and I've been a fan of them since 2015... I went to sleep one night and I had a dream about this band that was about to put an EP out, called Sleep Token and voila! Like magic! Haaaa.... "I heard of them 1st... nah nah nah nah nah nahhhh 🤪"
Well I followed Vessel before sleep token.😝
Vessels voice has so many layers and dimensions to it. He also emphasizes his words which brings another layer to it. The whole band is amazing.
I love how he pronounces words 🤍
@@levoldunomhe speaks what we call in UK proper or ‘posh’ english, very eloquent. I love it that he does not lose that when he sings. For instance in High Water he still pronounces the word queStions properly ( rather than queSHtions).
Yes! He seems to have most definitely been classically trained.
The drops made me levitate where you wouldn't reach me
I'm late to discovering them but I'm also old lol. It's been decades since I've been moved in this way by music.
Same here
ex gf introduced me to Sleep Token about a year ago and I can’t get over the beauty of their music. Its poetic and melodic, it's enamouring, it's overwhelming, it's crafted with the touch of someone(s) who has a genuine talent.
The funny Thing is that your ex was who introduced you.... 😅 Sleep Token is about ex girlfriends, trauma, redempetion and resilience 😅
He sounds so young on this EP
Honestly, you're so right! Tbf it's also almost five years ago
that was my first thought too! he sounds great then and now
Closer to blacklit canopy
@@scry5you arent cool bud
Shhh ❤ worship my friend.
how does every single song sound so good?!
right. Im on a amazing sleep token rabbit hole. Couldn't ask for a better night
Been thinking the same…
because vessel is singing it
duh
Because this man is a genius
That breakdown made me Levitate
Can't be "pigeonholed" into ANY category....truly ONE OF A KIND....EVERY album...every song
This song has all the beautiful sweeping lyrics you could imagine…then hits you with the bow, Dow, da,Dow, then lays you back down softly
The birth of sleep/vessel. Sleep comes from the land, loamy, its quiet. The mask/sleep fuses with the fields(the long grass). Vessel finds the mask and puts it on, they become one. Just my interpretation of the lore mixed with the video.
WORSHIP
P.S. Sundowning is one of my favorite albums of 2019. I have a mother with dementia, so sundowning has a special place in my heart, thank you guys!
hope you are having a nice 2023
I hope that everyone is fine in your family. ❤
Sorry, my English is not too good.
This piano over the breakdown is simply amazing...gives it such a sad note despite the catchy "djenty riffage". Can't express how much this part gives me right now.
His voice sounds so different now! Like almost pitch shifted down. So beautiful either way
Everything is beautiful and blows me away. Every single song speaks to me in some way. Please don’t ever stop. You guys have saved me and gotten me through the darkest deep depression in my life. Thank you.
I agree but also... you're beautiful and your beauty blows me away. Just calling it like I see it, is all. 🤷🏼♂️😁
Gamer girl and ST fan, hold up yall.. let me cook
Hugs to you. I hope you're still doing well.
ugh, vessels voice is breathtaking and otherwordly in this. one of my favorites.
The daylight recedes
In unison, this room
Buries the hours
Like death, in motion
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
[Verse 2]
Your name is a sin
I breathe, like oxygen
Caught in the careless
Arms, of lust again
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
@@slixnoirdoes This lyrics refers to what im thinking of???😮😮😮😂😂😂😂
You guys make me realize my true hidden primal emotion deeply ingrained in me. I love you, thank you.
WE LOVE YOU VESS
How do they still only have 581k subscribers.
We really love you.
Wow! How this could be Vessel's voice? Is SO different. How young he was that he sang like that? I'm shocked. Sounds amazings now and then, but there's a clear difference
i thought the same thing when i heard it
23 when this ep was released
He was possibly in his early 20s, makes sense his vocals are still quite raw and untrained compared to the newest albums, but I love it either way.
holy shit i’ve ascended
Too hard for me to pick a favorite ST song, but this is quickly becoming that song. The guitar and Vessel's voice capture my attention every time I hear it.
I don't even know what to comment cause I never comment on videos I just wanna show some form of support haha.
One of the best bands I ever heard in my lifetime since Deftones and Stoneside WORSHIP
I am fairly new to their music but this early work of them is just a masterpiece!!!!!
I can't decide which song is my favorite.
So grateful I found their music 😊
Two amazing songs out, can't wait for the album!
The mix between real beauty and brute force!
I love this song i feel like its really underrated
How. The. Hell is it Feb 2025 and literally only just discovered this song!!!! I’ve known about Sleep Token for a couple of years but somehow I missed this. Even back in 2016 there were shadows of their greatness and Vessel’s range as a performer. I’m so damn glad I can hear this and see their journey.
Frisson. Pure frisson. Thank you, ST.
Nobody else can pull me out.
Great music....a good contrast of soft and heavy....
Worship. Hits me in the feels every time....
I stumbled upon your cover of 'Hey Ya.' You're doing amazing things. Please, keep it up.
Been a fan since 2017, so happy that have come so far since the early days
I discovered them with the debut album and have been obsessively listening to that, so I'm still working through the EPs - but this is gorgeous
W O R S H I P
Fouled your videos in 2024 much appreciated bc you represent so many genres it’s crazy y unless you hear it
Got the collectors pack of the Sundowning album, loved this song on the ep mini-vinyl so I'm here to say how bloody cracking this song is.
Nobody else can pull me out,
Fields of elation, quiet and loamy…🔥
🖤
One of my favorites ❤️❤️ Worship
Anyone ever realize the descriptions of these old videos are some of the only direct lore given to us about what sleep is and who vessel is (I think, if I’m wrong please correct me, I’d love to learn more things about this band)
This band is so amazing!
I love this one Alot! The tone and the flow one to another. Full of love, calm
I can't wait for a full length I been jamming to all these songs the pass few weeks. Been helping me out alot. #worship
Like hymns of dreams.
very northland with the guitar tones and song structure
Even though their vibe isnt fully formed at this point, this ep is still fantastic and a super cool starting point for the band! ❤
I wanna go to the dream´s world every day with this song 🪐
This is beautiful
Saw Sleep Token live at Wacken this year. It was my first time.. it was magical. Then Igorrr at last, even tjo I was tired, it was just perfect.
this song is underrated as fuck
Lyricist......really.......listen to their entire catalog of material.....whoever he is...???....he's fucking from another world....amazing, incredible, insightful, so beautifully twisted....unlike no other
❤❤
Gotta love the vocals
this song is just perfect.
The songwriter reflects at night on their belief that only one can pull them from where they’ve fallen.
However, both the songwriter and their person of interest lose faith in their lives apart so the songwriter remains there.
Alone and a vacuum.
*Just a creative response/interpretation to their song.
I really love this version. Perfection! 🔥🖤🤙🏼
Beautiful and Dreamy
Love it ❤️
Really love you guys!
I love this song ❤
Wow such great mixture ,I miss this type of music since "TooL" I'm sub n will be a true fan keep this up hoping ya get big
Five years later, your hopes have been fulfilled.
YES!
they sound INCREDIBLE live, im sad they didnt play any songs from before sundowning id KILL to hear this live.
This is still my favourite ST track.
This. Nothing compares to it.
beautiful song ❤
Ive never really appreciated dialing in guitar tones cause it kind of through me off, I didnt realize this was almost like the demo version, same with those repeating echoes.
\m/ 🖤
I'm hooked....
Nice lyric !!!
Thank you for these gifts 💚🧁💚My sweet Prince~
Sounds dhujhent.. yet so beautiful
[Verse 1]
The daylight recedes in unison, this room
Buries the hours, like death in motion
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
[Verse 2]
Your name is a sin I breathe, like oxygen
Caught in the careless arms of lust, again
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
[Hook]
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
[Outro]
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
So good.
Praise him
Todo lo que está siendo descrito en esta canción es exactamente lo que quiero, con él.
Worship 💜
Love that song! 💝💝💖💖
Sleep is my relief, however, it's usually filled with horrible dreams instead of PEACE
I need this one in my veins!!!!! And on a setlist, LoL
I LOVE ONE WITH ALL MY LIFE!!❤❤❤
The melody in this reminds me of Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t she lovely”. This song is so good btw
My favorite ST song
This is a pretty song
Discovering a new sleep token song 🙌🏽🤓
im sad i never heard of ST until they blew up. I feel ill never be able to be a true fan...
If ST collaborated with Katatonia, the music world would NEVER be the same again ~ guaranteed!
Holy shiiit yes!!!! I didn't know I needed that until right now!!! 😍
I had the same thought yesterday. Damn they need to do it one day! Both are one of my favorite bands. It would be delightful
Yes! 🔥
Blessed Be, Another absolutely brilliant song from the fantastic Sleep Token, Vessel's voice is so darkly beautiful and emotionally haunting it touches my soul.
WORSHIP.
JulietInBlack 🦇
Blessed be :)
Blessed be is a Spiritbox song
I wonder where the original mask is now... did sleep take it...?
I want to hear more about their beliefs. It's so interesting.
I think it's a gimmick
@@iDoqz if you only knew how deep this goes, with tht said no it’s not a gimmick I promise
Think I just found my new favorite band for the time being. So damn good.
for the time.*
@@PolackoTV Naw it's gonna be forever, Leo is jus to damn good, the boys as well. 💕
@@PleaseForgiveYourself I meant for all of time* 🤣
dope
his mask was so different, almost makes me think of V from Vendetta oddly
It does me too
Vessel's voice here reminds me of young Daniel Johns from Silverchair :)
anyone else know who the eden project is? kinda weird they both sing about eden and sound alike. Eden isnt metal though but still similar music similar voices too but Sleep Token is 1000 times better.
Omg yes i’ve been thinking about this too!!!!!!
Sick song
amazing
first comment
@@DUC939 seems like it lol

They know their djent alright.
❤
Ethereal!
