    Love how you started out quite analytical with some pausing after a couple of sections. But by partway through you were just along for the ride. It sure is an engaging song.

    A quote from vessel himself perfectly sums up your intro about genre.
    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.

      Couldn’t agree more. And it’s fairly apt when applied to Sleep Token too I suppose. Their work is fairly diverse.

    As a producer, you must hear more of the sound production, and that's normal. However, I'd like to point out how absolutely poetic and magnificent the lyrics are as well. These dudes just have it all, and I'm all here for it.

      Absolutely. This was the song that pulled me into Sleep Token. I stumbled upon a tiktok of the stripped back vocals of the chorus, and as a former English major, the poetry of "My, my, your eyes like fire, I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre" grabbed me by the throat, especially with his gorgeous voice and melody (which I'm always weak to) and I just went down a rabbit hole I still haven't emerged from. I haven't been this invested in a band... maybe ever. The lyricism is just out of this world.

  • @brianalmeida1964

    Enjoyed your informative analysis/reaction. Currently Sleep Token only officially consists of Vessel & Vessel II (drummer). Vessel III & IV (bass & guitar) then join them for touring or live performances. As for their identies. Those can be found online. Vessel even confirms his identity in the lyrics of 2 songs on this album where he mentions the name of his previous band. I'll leave it there as plenty of Sleep Token fans would rather not know their identities. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️

      ​@Carlos Enrique Unless you know what Vessel's previous band was called you wouldn't ever notice. His previous band was an unusual 2 word name. The first word is mentioned in Ascensionism and the second in Euclid. There are live performances and music videos for Vessel's previous band on TH-cam!

      @brianalmeida1964 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      ​​@@PrymalChaos I know the temptation to find out can be quite strong. In a way, I wish I was still ignorant of their identities. I actually found out by accident. At the time I was not trying to discover their identities and was content in my ignorance. Now I have to watch what I say incase I accidentally reveal their identities to those who do not wish to know!😅. Although I have a hunch that their identities will be revealed in the next Sleep Token incarnation. Euclid sounded like the end of a chapter and an uplifting one but the line "I must be someone new", along with Vessel's confirmation/hint of his identity within the album makes me think that they may just be finishing with anonymity.

    "Glitchy, sort of digital, yet somehow still organic". Yes. That even crosses into the lyrics. The duality of tech and nature is woven throughout so many of their songs.

    • @ColieBear18
      @ColieBear18 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is a great description of his voice. I think that's why it sinks it's hooks into you when he sings, because you can hear the emotions so clearly in his tone. He has one of the most unique voices I've ever heard.

  • @earthscorcher

    Knew you must have had fantastic headphones when you picked the birds in the very first second. Love how you just got swept away by the song after the first third.
    I strongly recommend you go back and listen straight through the album trilogy - Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, Take Me Back to Eden. They all glow together and create a full story.
    They also have two EPs (One, and Two) - Two has one of my favorite songs by them, "Nazareth." They've been good since they started.
    Vessel, the main lead, sings, writes lyrics, writes and records guitars, bass, piano, and synth. Their drummer (which we call "ii") is so beyond talented, also - he's about as close to Danny Carey as I've come across the on wild (and half the age).
    Can't wait for more of your reactions to Sleep Token. Would LOVE to see you do an hour-long, full album reaction to any of the albums.

    There’s so many ambient sounds throughout the song, every time during the nasty breakdown at the end I wonder if someone’s at the doorbell. I also love the different call-response tones during that breakdown, especially the choir hit. Nothing is random.

    This entire album from beginning to end absolutely amazing. It's the first time since I can remember I have been able to put an entire album on repeat and listen over and over again. I've heard this whole album probably 10 times already and now I'm going through the reactions, which to my surprise, alot of reactors are also reacting to the album as a whole which i have only seen 1 other time. I have a hard time picking a favorite song lol. "Are you okay" is very emotiona❤

  • @NotEvenCarbon
    @NotEvenCarbon ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Their guitarist uses an 8 string tuned to double drop e for 80% of their discography but he uses a 6 string for some of the tracks on the new album. From what I understand though, In the studio - Vessel records the guitar parts and they have touring guitarists with them to play live and II is an insane percussionist, there’s some drum playthroughs they have released that are mesmerising and definitely worth a watch if drums get you going 😅

    • @PrymalChaos

Only found this band since January, and already they are my favourite band ever. The way sleep token is so imersive to their songs is just breathtaking!

  • @matttyler8331
    @matttyler8331 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As to the guitar sound, from a guitar-tech on their tour Guitar world got some info about what is used.
    A Jackson 8-String
    Directly from the article:
    "For the bulk of the set, IV is playing the X Series Soloist Arch Top SLAT8 MS, a multi-scale eight-string behemoth with EMG 909 active humbuckers.
    Billy notes that IV is a fan of longer-scale guitars, so the 26-28” scale length is a major factor in his use of the none-more-black beast, which is tuned down to double drop E (EAEADGBE) and strung up with 10-84 strings."

    • @PrymalChaos
      @PrymalChaos  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As a guitarist who has almost always opted to stay fairly traditional, i.e tuning to E, rarely using my 7 string, etc. Everything you just said sounded like sorcery! Hahaha.

    I don't understand why people (fans) are how they are. Instead of enjoying what they have in front of them, they must scrub the internet relentlessly to find out who someone is and put them in a box. You can relate this album to the first time you heard it and now that you've dissected it.
    -You've found out the band members identities.
    -You've collectively labeled and packed them away as a genre.
    Do you feel justified or does that feeling of warmth and wonder you had in the beginning emptier now? Some things you shouldn't aim to consume, like the apple of Eden. Its a drug that can't be satiated and you have to turn the curiosity off at some point and just enjoy where you are.
    Artists don't need proper names to make art.
    Music doesn't need a label/genre for you to enjoy it.
