I think this is our next level right? we love sleep token so much we wanna see the reaction we had when we heard that song cause it's like bringin back that magic!
I saw Sleep Token at Red Rocks earlier this year. As someone that sees A LOT of live music, that show is a must if they ever come to your area. You feel it as much as you hear it. Show of the year for me.
If you are into music, that last breakdown just tickles the brain in the best spots. The composition is just perfect - the scream, II's drumming, the guitars (and synth) playing the piano melody we hear the entire song, Vessel screaming "you make me wish I could disappear" and the chunky ending. To me, this is one of those songs, that when you listen to it the first time, you feel something that you only feel on the first listen. And surprisingly, a lot of Sleep Token songs did that to me :D
I don’t know how people overlook how dark and desperate this song is. It’s about a guy who wants to leave this world to escape the pain and hurt, the ‘eternal ascension’. And it leads into a song, where this person is looking back at himself from the outside….”Are You Really Okay?”
Thats actually a beautiful view of this song. The most commonly accepted theory and one that I believe is it's a conversation between Vessel and Sleep. Vessel being desperate about being connected with Sleep while Sleep is only using him for it's own gains, and it's offended by Vessel's desparate pleas, hence the "You're gonna watch me ascend" scream
So glad you're finally reacting to this song. I've been watching your channel closely waiting for this day to come. I don't think you realise just what a masterpiece Ascensionism is. Fun Fact, it's the only Sleep Token song to make me cry
I get goosebumps every time, IN ADVANCE just from knowing it’s about to happen. The lead in is perfect, the emotions are at their boiling point, the drop is *chef’s kiss*
I was in a steaming hot bath and I had the biggest chills of my life. Then I'll admit, tears. And this feeling of my body being numb, but the insides going through tectonic motion.
I’m so glad you got around to Ascensionism, it’s personally my favourite ST song. Could I recommend “Fall for Me” or “Atlantic” next? Those songs are a straight gut punch.
This song is so much a human experience. Whatever side of anything you're on. Its that... gender, love everything. If you know you know. If you felt it... you know too
Love this song. Really highlight's Sleep Token's versatility. I also recommend listening to anything by The Pretty Wild. Another genre fluid band that's recently taken my attention.
Butterflies everywhere... Since I've listened to Nightwish's An Ocean of Strange Islands, I'm surrounded by these delicate creatures. You have to consider giving it a try too, dear. :o) What a ride!!!
"Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky." Happiness is within his reach, but he is so fixated on her because she is his world that he cannot see the diamonds. It doesn't matter if it is bad for him; she is everywhere and engulfs him in her world. Even if he is looking up at the diamonds, she is still in the background, A constant reminder, always present.
earned my subscribe lol. seen a few of your previous videos and enjoyed them but seeing you enjoy this song with your hair (at least the bottom half lol) my favorite color (royal blue) i found myself entranced
Yes! Hit me a few months ago that one of the possible meanings of this song is Vessel talking to the audience about how we interact with him but we're still strangers taking the passion he pours into his music for ourselves. Not antagonistic, but he understands.
I really wish you let those emotions at 13:00 run through you for longer, till the end. But you stopped it, run away. I get it, it was hard moment, overwhelming. Sleep Token things.
to me, it seems like he has met a narcissistic woman, who lures him in, makes him a puppet, tears him apart, until he realizes whats happening. And does the same to her, and leaves. And the result is him torn apart, and confused... and he just wants to dissapear... a bad, toxic, relationship. thats at least my thoughts. anyway, great reaction. worship 🤘😎🤘 greets from Norway! btw! u dare react to "Susanne Sundfør - when the lord" ?
If I was comparing this song to anything, it would be a very intense workout with the gentlest of cooldown sessions afterwards. You can't help but love it can you?
Nice! Your reaction videos to bands I love have been super fun, thank you! Would love it if you ever gave Periphery a listen. Satellites, Wax Wings, Catch Fire, and Stranger Things are all outstanding tracks I think you might enjoy. :)
Before somebody recommends you a song too far... I highly recommend you take it back to the beginning. Song 1 of Album 1, the song that first broke the band: The Night Does Not Belong to God. It is necessary listening.
Apparently, this song is about Internet trolls and the way that they were bullying vessel online and seen his band would never be successful and know he was trying to prove them wrong.
I'm a simple person: I see a video of someone reacting to Sleep Token for the first time, and I click on it!
💯
I said the same thing on someone else's video.
And it also happens to be their best song (debatable but idc) 💯
You and me. Yes. I do this too!
I think this is our next level right? we love sleep token so much we wanna see the reaction we had when we heard that song cause it's like bringin back that magic!
''You're gonna watch me ascend'' scream was *chef's kiss*.
"You make me wish I could disappear " is crushing.
It didn't make me feel that way on the first listen, but every time I listen now it just feels heavier and heavier!
Inhale -> scream -> “You make me wish I could disappear” = perfection. Always leaves me choked up.

That scream has SO MUCH emotion packed into it, it really is the climax of the song. My favorite scream in any song, hands down
@@joshlewis8860 bro facts.... that final scream is heartbreakingly emotionnal.

Sleep Token is on a different level than anyone out there right now
Lol

I agree.
3:00 ''I know it is most likely going to change'' Oh my sweet summer child.... bless her for she knows not what is coming 😂
Sleeptoken - The Apparition have to be next!! thats my fav.
Thanks for your reactions
Amazing song!
Personal favourite too !
So glad you're finally reacting to this song. I've been watching your channel closely waiting for this day to come. I don't think you realise just what a masterpiece Ascensionism is. Fun Fact, it's the only Sleep Token song to make me cry
I feel so happy everytime I see your videos. You have such a warm and beautiful presence. You're comfort. 😌
I never forget how I felt at 12:53, it was like my brain was melting
I get goosebumps every time, IN ADVANCE just from knowing it’s about to happen. The lead in is perfect, the emotions are at their boiling point, the drop is *chef’s kiss*

Atlantic is such a beautifully crafted song
This song is phenomenal in every single way.... Completely flawless
This song feels like going on an adventure. In terms of dynamics and structure, it's like a complete story in itself. Unbelievably good songwriting
This is hands down my favorite Sleep Token song, perfection and it’s even better live
This song is so much a human experience. Whatever side of anything you're on. Its that... gender, love everything. If you know you know. If you felt it... you know too
This song combines five different styles of music. And it all works! Incredible.
Ah, the masterpiece... 🙏🤘🖤
We finally got ascensionism! ❤
Love this song. Really highlight's Sleep Token's versatility. I also recommend listening to anything by The Pretty Wild. Another genre fluid band that's recently taken my attention.
I love this whole album, every song is different and amazing...

And now we wait for reaction of apparition and Euclid
earned my subscribe lol. seen a few of your previous videos and enjoyed them but seeing you enjoy this song with your hair (at least the bottom half lol) my favorite color (royal blue) i found myself entranced
I think "Gods" would surprise you. Underrated Sleep Token's song.
PD: they have sooo many great songs...
Banger of a song
Please go down the Sleep Token rabbit hole. There are so many good songs from thsir previous albums.
Digital demons make the night feel heavenly, seems like means the crowd with their phones “ digital demons” up in the air.
Yes! Hit me a few months ago that one of the possible meanings of this song is Vessel talking to the audience about how we interact with him but we're still strangers taking the passion he pours into his music for ourselves. Not antagonistic, but he understands.
When this album dropped it was like "wow this is real music"
This hits you right in the soul!
it has to take a vast amount of dedication to have not listened to this song until now!!!!

Sleep token is spiritual AF
Edit: and i think he is talking to his shadow and integrating his shadow and thus ascension
Great Rayaction
One of my favorite 🔥
Beautiful
Can you imagine, you're Vessel's ex, google through their identity, and like.. Bruh. He talking about me?
Only if youvthe demon sleep
If I was comparing this song to anything, it would be a very intense workout with the gentlest of cooldown sessions afterwards. You can't help but love it can you?
whew, a 21 min ray vid 😌 we got a banger on our hands, ty for taking the suggestion 🙏
I'd be so down to watching you react to some Allt! They just dropped their album "From The New World" and the lore and music are amazing
Euclid next please ❤
I really hope you react to Euclid soon, such a beatiful song
Only after listening to The Night Does Not Belong to God, and the rest of this whole album XD
@@Thisisausername556 True that's a must
YESSSSSSS 🤘🏻🔥🍻
Ray I like your reaction on this song. Do you think you will be doing a reaction on the song Sugar from Sleep Token ?
🔥🔥🔥
Not my typical kind of comment here, but damn your hair looks fricken amazimg!!! I was hypnotized by it. Yeah, the song helped. But DAMN!!! 😍
I want you to react to Euclid. However, you'll like it more if you've listened to the rest of their stuff
Do the apparition next!!!
This song to me is about the drug life.. momentary pleasure for longer term depression..
❤
You look like your REALLY enjoyed that 😊
Please do "Sugar" next.
plls can you do The Apparition! Won't be disappointed
6:20 sad twerking session starts
Nice! Your reaction videos to bands I love have been super fun, thank you! Would love it if you ever gave Periphery a listen. Satellites, Wax Wings, Catch Fire, and Stranger Things are all outstanding tracks I think you might enjoy. :)
Not many people will be sleeping listening to this sleep token song, if you know what I mean 😂😂😂
react to The Apparition from sleep token pls, is my favorite
The fact you haven't reacted to Fall For Me is insane
you should react to Hurt You by spiritbox absolute banger
The recent live versions of Circle With Me and Soft Spine.
no Euclid?
You should check out Hypnosis by Sleep Token
Why is there such sound distortion in the music tracks on this channel?
Pretty please react to “fall for me” and “DYWTYLM” by Sleep Token!!! I love your vids!!!
Please react to Euclid
Unrelated, but your hair is amazing
i love you, you're so pretty
you're genuinely so beautiful bro, i thought girls like you was a myth ngl.
The best band in the world is always English. We always have the best music 🏴
Cannot wait to see them live in December 🔥
Please react to missing limbs please 🙏
Before somebody recommends you a song too far... I highly recommend you take it back to the beginning. Song 1 of Album 1, the song that first broke the band: The Night Does Not Belong to God. It is necessary listening.
Please, react to Gabriel Henrique singing with the chilean singer Kevin Vásques, love in the dark, Adele.ok Chanel Kevin and Carla
Please do Sleep Token DYWTYLM
A totally ridiculous, superficial comment... I just noticed you have the most beautiful, amazing skin. There, I've said it. 8-]
vessel could've written hamlet, shakespeare could not have written ascensionism
Apparently, this song is about Internet trolls and the way that they were bullying vessel online and seen his band would never be successful and know he was trying to prove them wrong.
Can you stop saying um 50 times at the end thank you
its one of those songs..... 3 mins in wtf
clown
Clearly inspired by "Type O Negative" right here. Or almost stolen, but then again.. Who doesn't!?
Type O Negative could only dream about writing something this special. Behave yourself lol
Not even close lol
