Air drummers out here fighting for our lives
Tell me about it!! He has me flapping my arms around like I'm drowning in a sea of Sleep Token!
Dude I laughed so hard at this comment 😂
😂😂😂 I’m dead. This is an amazing comment.
Never, ever has a drummer had me constantly failing every friggin fill. Damn you ii. I love you.
Nobody ever talks about how brilliant the"other, other eye" bit is.
I remember my second or third listen to the song when I was trying to learn the lyrics, it really had me like
“Waaaait a minute….
Who *are* you? 😆”
Lots of great lyrics in these longer songs
I didn’t notice that before now, holy shit that’s a cool line
3rd eye of the narcissist looking for glory
Im surprised not many people mention the little glitch in his voice when he says glitches in the cold
Yes!!!! I thought I was the only one who heard that lol
*code
Just an FYI in case you're interested. A lot of the lyric videos have the lyrics wrong. For instance the line you mentioned is actually,"glitches in the code,(not cold),or gaps in a strange dream." There are a few incorrect lyrics in that first verse actually. Where the lyric videos have,"snap back in blissful language", it's actually blissful anguish. There are a few more that are incorrect but I can't think of them at the moment while I'm watching this kick-ass reaction and the song is playing. 🤣And I can't bring myself to pause it. It's just too good to pause. 🤘😝🤘Worship 💯🔥💕✌️
Just remembered another one. Half algorithm,(not half of a rhythm), half deity. Glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream.✌️
As a self-proclaimed expert air-drummer, I can confirm that II is IMPOSSIBLE to follow
Personally I like the pausing and then rewinding back so you never miss a part of the song, but gives us a chance to hear your comments without you talking over the song...not sure if that makes sense at all. But I'm here for either way! Loved the reaction, one of my favorite ST songs.
I appreciate the feedback! I love the pausing and rewinding too. It's what truly sets our channel apart from other reactors.
I agree 100%.
Same!
@@TheOneLTReacts100% , I follow them all and you the only one! Keep it up 😋👍
"Delicious Digital Burrito" is about to be my new band's name....
I can’t wait to react to your first song!
This one made me cry like a baby the first 19 times I heard it
Me too!
It's almost like the drop...ascends, i'll see myself out.
can’t believe this doesn’t have a zillion likes 😂💖
@@ariana.cherise haha thank you
I laughed so I’ll be right behind you. 🤷🏻♀️😂
Acensionism is hands down my favorite Sleep Token song, I love all their music but this one just hits different
YESSS. I’ve had so many people not understand how I adore this song more than a lot of their others that are more popular. I’m like ‘talk to my brain because it’s just SO GOOD’. 😂
The mixing and mastering is out of this world.
I love how you went full Jack Black at one point. That surprised me more than Sleep Token’s music.
lol didn’t even notice until I was editing it. I have watch nacho libre and school of rock too many times!
My favourite part! 😅❤
I can't believe it took me this long to realize the whole "Flying above followed by walking below" that fits the whole Ascension thing and also maybe ties into the whole '"The sky above, the earth below," line from the Summoning
Watching you waiting for the drop and knowing what is coming later… knowing you’re gonna be satisfied. ❤
3:39 usually the reason I also don’t like genre hopping is because most bands don’t have proficiency or a good understanding of the genres they borrow from but Sleep Token understand and use those genres very very well
Lol you mentioned how hard 2 is to follow, you should watch his Drumeo playthrough. So amazing.
I absolutely love the way you describe all the effects, atmospheric details, if you will. That's exactly how I describe things. Perfect.
One of my favorite songs ever
I love how he coveys his feelings through the music alone
I like the stopping and rewinding. Being a musician myself I do this a lot in my own at times. It’s educational and studying. Sleep Token is one of those bands with lots of Easter eggs in their compositions. Vessel tells stories. Like the Billy Joel of metal. They connect the heart , body and spirit of the listener.
I understood the "open drop"
I visualize it as the sudden opening of huge ornamental golden gates that were securing a castle
Great reaction man. I recently discovered sleep token and I’m in awe of this band. “I’ll take whatever sleep token feeds me” hit different.
Yes! Please more of this. This is the sort of deeper analysis that so many other reaction channels are missing. Keep up the amazing work!!!
7:42 feels like some of that church rock, with the choir vocals infront
Worship
this song hits different. I had a girl use me as a stepping stone, took her in, got her her birth certificate, GED, i drove across the country, spent years worrying about her, but at one point in the relationship she started distancing herself. I noticed the red flags, but i denied them because I thought I knew who she was, after 7 years. One day, she woke up and told me i couldn't touch her, kiss her, hug her, and she wouldn't say I love you. She said she wasn't meant for a relationship anymore. But I found after only two months after the breakup, she is fucking her cousin and juggling guys. This practically means she purely used me and never wanted me in the first place. She was just surviving off my kindness, deceiving me to convincingly keep me going until she was ready to let me go. Thats what she did, and I spent years, wasted years , on this girl. Im scarred for life, and she just gets to leave with no scars. it's unfair.
I don't know if this happened recently but I wish you the best with everything dude
Damn brother, I'm sorry this happened to you. This is why I love music so much, it has a way of making people that have gone through something like feel understood. I don't know her and I don't know you personally, but I know this, it's time you use her too. Use her and what she did to you to grow. Like Marcus Aurelius says, and I'm paraphrasing, just like a doctor prescribes you medication for an ailment, nature also prescribes you a few pills that are hard to swallow for your betterment. Better that you found out after 7 years than for you to be married and have to live with that burden for your entire life!
Keep your head up and keep pushing forward.
@@TheNamesFathom two months ago we ended- talked for 4 years, long distance for two, lived together for a year and a half
Your reactions are superb your face shows your loving it
I love the stitched way of doing the review, it’s more fluid and flows much better
Incredible reaction, I love that you pick up so many different aspects of the music as well as good lyrics and vocals!
You were anticipating a “breakdown” when you said it’s more open.
Exactly!
That Jack Black moment had me cackling 😂
lol I didn’t even realize I went into Jack black mode
I agree, juste one word : open 🙌
First time watching you react and yes i like this style of reacting since this is how i feel. Keep doing you and im going to check out some more vids!
Love to see you back doing sleep token reactions brother. You were missed
I appreciate that, I missed the music!
Welcome to sleep token! Worship! 😊💜🙌🙏🎶
When he speaks the soft rock part, it sounds a lot like the band called EDEN.
Another band you should check out is loathe.sleep token actually covered one of loathes songs in a collab with loathe.The song is called"is it really you?"
I'll add it to my list. Thank you so much
I really hope you react to Rain! I love watching your Sleep Token reacts 🙌🏼
You’re awesome bro, this song hits me every time
I like this style, the pausing and analysis. Well done!
Thanks so much!
I missed your reactions, so glad you are back! You always point out something that I haven't noticed and I love how you enjoy music, don't mind either way you do your reactions.
I saw them live at wembley last december and screaming together with 10k people "Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky" & 'You make me wish I could disappear" is a core memory for me.
The best live show I have seen even though vessel was sick and struggled to sing halfway through.
New sub, thanks to ST. Your personality is about as quirky as mine. We’d be friends 😂
I think I even hold back my quirkiness a bit, my friend.
I love watching your videos! I’ve listened to this song so many times and you still be pointing out things I’ve never noticed! Also, I prefer your current reaction style!
Thank you for the feedback! I'll be mixing up the reactions. I did develop a new and unique style that I know for sure isn't being done by anyone else and I want to have that be what sets us apart!
Oh and i really enjoyed this reaction video 🙏
Definitely this way of talking through the music
I think having a variety of editing styles keeps stuff fresh. ii is definitely hard to follow but his style is so tasty.
I agree, I want to keep my unique editing style tasty like Vessel II's drumming.
love this bro!
Easy new subscriber with this one, love how much attention you're paying to everything. If you've gone over your background in one of your videos i'd love to be guided towards that. Been a musician for 20 years myself and Sleep Token have recently become very close to my favourite act going. Looking forward to more videos, props from Ireland :)
Edit: Regarding the unexpected nature of the drop, it has this beautiful soaring backing vocal adding a major harmony which you really don't think is coming, and the drum beat just adds support for the guitars and melodies to do their thing. Love the analysis!
Every single man doing their job and executing it perfectly to make this beautiful sound! You nailed it! Welcome to The channel Ireland!
Love your Sleep Token reactions!
More to come!
i like this way of reacting. you get to say what is in your head at the moment and the fact that you can go back and listen to what you had just talked about.
Love your reaction videos 💜 your analysis are always creative and fun to watch please never stop
That glitch in the middle, though my PC was dying
Geeez!!! It was a glitch on export… cause the original isn’t like that… lol
I like this reaction!
There are 2 rendering glitches throughout this video. One at 4:45 and one at 12:31
Still loved the video, great reaction! This song was the song that made me fall in love with Sleep Token 🤘
Man!!! Thanks for pointing it out. Im going to have to cut it on TH-cam editor
I love your reaction. On another note you’re beautiful !! 👀
Awesome reaction!
Thank you!! 😁
You're welcome!@@TheOneLTReacts
🔥🔥
you´re a great guy W
can you pleaseee react to sugar!!!
I'll add it to my list! Thank you!
Damn your musical instight is eye opening, almost like synthesia
If you do a reaction at the end of the song it's more of a review than a reaction. I prefer soft breaks for reactions just like you did in this one where you felt you needed to react.
The one thing EVERYONE misses in this song is the quiver in Vessel's voice when he has his comeuppance...or is it? He says " My redemption, eternal ascension, setting me FREE" when he says free, there are so many ways you can read that because of the quiver at the end. Wish someone besides me would catch it once.
Good reaction though broheim.
Q: "Do you like these types of reactions?" A: "Does it have Leo Torres in it?"....
Thanks!!!
I personally prefer stopping once in a while to comment on specific parts you enjoy or feel like it's worth talking about. If you're reacting and we're watching, we probably already know the song. I think a reaction needs pauses for the reactors sake, and for the audience to get commentary about specific things they already know they like, but it's still nice to hear someone else say it.
Thank you so much for the feedback!
It's a pleasure to see someone like you, Leo, that has authentic musical ear to grasp all these levels of background sonic treasures, intertwined in the vertical.
I'm sure you'll appreciate this "enriched" arrangement as well - th-cam.com/video/AH7z-4YhXoA/w-d-xo.html
There is no genre for sleep token. Just elevation. I’m in.
i get u bro, it is open, check out Rain - sleep token, then do motionless white - another life, after that i would recommend bad omen - pretend & my fav of bad omen the death of peace and mind im subscribing and waiting for those.
I will add it to my list for sure! Thank you!
There’s only one Leo
😉
Prefer not to have the end of the song cut off.
They are a smart band. But the music is very reminiscent to transitions in gospel, hence the worship at concerts. It pulls you in and exploits emotions to their fullest. All good.
What I hear you saying is that they are excellent storytellers.
@@TheOneLTReacts They are amazing. I adore everything thing they've made or covered.
....... You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about lololol...... You're the type of youtuber who thinks they know voice and music composition , yet they don't even know what the standard tunning to the guitar is.....
Synchronicity is at it again, just this morning I was wondering what the basic tuning was for an instrument I’ve played for two thirds of my life. And boom! Here you are to educate a fourth generation musician.
I do know the standard tuning to the guitar, but that doesn’t matter. I know amazing musicians who don’t even know what they’re playing. There are tons of composers who don’t play instruments but have composed amazing pieces. Look up Jose Alfredo Jimenez. He never played the guitar and he was one of Mexicos greatest composers. Wrote well over 500 songs. Heard all around the world… and…. Heard in outer space, too.
I apologize for the sarcasm but dude, why are you online pretending to know what complete strangers know or don’t know? Music is a great tool that connects us and brings people together. Why do you have to go all music police on a complete stranger? I would never do that to you. Are you a musician? If you are, I’d love to hear what you’re making… I might even react to it in my channel. I’m serious. I am not a hater. I love music. Probably just as much as you do.
@@TheOneLTReactsAbsolutely LOVE your classy response to this comment. The amount of negative uncalled for or unnecessary comments left on every type of video content on the Internet is astonishing. I am one of those people that actually listened to my mother's wise words when I was growing up. And that was,"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." It's not difficult to just agree to disagree. It's part of learning how to respect others so we can live together in harmony. Very classy, Leo.💕✌️
