LYRICS
I was born to break, shallow paradise
Consumed, I ignore meteoric rise
If the blade is dull, there is consequence
You displace the host, there is no defense
Tell me the waves won’t rise
And monsters will fade with time
To temper the blaze with the twist of a knife
A Sun Killer lullaby
They were born of dust, shallow parasite
Breakdown, destruction
Ocean floors collide
If the blade is dull, there is consequence
If I stay I know, I’ll be violent
Tell me the waves won’t rise
And monsters will fade with time
To temper the blaze with the twist of a knife
A Sun Killer lullaby
Sun Killer sing me to sleep
#Spiritbox #EternalBlue #SunKiller
"Sun. Kill. Er. Sing. Me. To Sleep." THEN finally followed up by that explosive "SUN KILLER SING ME TO SLEEP!!!" THIS is why metal is my favorite/go to music genre!
The timing of that part is incredible.
:( unfortunately a very predictable course that the song takes, criminally overrated
@@norbertonicenstein5333 yeah no lol
@@jordancastro5700 0IQ music
@@norbertonicenstein5333 lol ok
can't believe I get to know this band just now !!!!! better late than never !
eternal blue is one of the best debut albums I’ve heard in years
Didn't they have a self titled three years ago?
@@erich1380 Yes, but that was an EP, not an album per se.
@@EduRenesto oh technicalities... Lol
@@erich1380 lol hahaha
Couldn't agree more. It's an absolutely phenomenal debut album 👏
How music like this isn't more popular, absolutely baffles me.
Ikr??
This Literally one of the most famous metal bands atm?
@@Mr.Marbles Except it isn't
@@Mr.Marbles Most metal fans don't know this band exists. Because in this genre there are so many bands with so many fans, and unlike pop who all fans are drawn to the exact same music. Think of the random bands you stumble upon all the time, and had no idea they even existed who pull far bigger crowds than Spiritbox.. I only found this band due to the youtube algorithm a few years ago.
@@traviscue2099 they are in the top ranks in most metal charts like on spotify, amazon music and obviously the youtube algorithm. compared to other bands they are already really famous for only having an album and a few singles.
This might be the best intro song I've ever heard. I literally cannot get past it to continue the album. Spiritbox you are legends
The uncanny valley by dead lights is also up there, but I think I’m sold to this
@@ajfite1277 oooh The Uncanny Valley is awesome!
Simple Boy on Karnivool's Sound Awake is up there too
Memento Mori by lamb of god
@@norbertonicenstein5333 he didn't say "song intro"... he said "intro song"

#3 on Billboard 200 in America. That's gotta mean something, right!? Metal/hard rock needs a resurgence. Big time. The new Spiritbox is amazing by the way.
@Ἀχλύς time passes actually.
It doesn't need a resurgence, because it never left.
Canada
Courtney's vocals are so hauntingly beautiful!
My fucking god, what a way to start an album. Fucking beautiful!
amaaaaazing aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!
Im here again to say that the album has been on repeat since launch day.
Thank you for this masterpiece Spiritbox. Come to Argentina 🤘🏼🔥
i saw you commenting on sleep token's new album too. you have a good music taste :)
@@LJF999 yeah i made myself a playlist with my fav songs from both albums, can't get enough of it
What a way to end a song, too!⚡❤
Courtney has one of most beautiful voices in music today.
I agree, I like some mostly higher range singers, but at louder volumes some higher range singers can get a little sharp on my sensitive ears and I can handle a lot of metal screaming.
I'm literally obsessed
I love this song so much, I can't even explain. The whisper chant and then the vocal explosion at the end. It give me chills every fucking time!
Listening to Courtney is like listening to a siren sing. It sounds so hauntingly beautiful.
Agree, her voice is beautiful
I always get a beautiful wicked imagery from hearing their songs, just laying back some days and listening to it paints the best pictures in my head.
@Ryan Bro????
Courtney is a queen of metal. She transitions so well between clean vocals and screams. One of my favorite singers of all time
@Ryan incel
I was drifting off to sleep with Amazon music in my headphones. I guess it went from whatever I had on previously to this. Scream at the end WOKE MY ASS THE HELL UP!!! One of the best albums of the year
LMAO 💀💀
how do people even sleep with music on
i'm horrible to fall asleep, need complete silence darkness and an empy mind
@@geennaam1201how do you empty your mind because mine never seems to stay in one place?
@@Dankimus3607
Often i dont and i just lay in my bed for hours
Sometimes pron helps to clear my head
You know you're raising your kid right when they ask to listen to spiritbox on the way to preschool. She sings, or rather, hums along to this song everytime. She will be 5 next month. My mama heart is so full and proud 🥰🥰🥰
this whole album is incredible, but SUN KILLER is probably the most hauntingly Beautiful metal song i have ever heard. its so many eargasms rolled into such a tight package. the lyrics are so damn dark and haunting and that chorus sends a chill down my soul. This is a song that makes you feel alive, my favorite song from Spiritbox so far after Circle With Me and Constance.
Could have said it better myself 🔥
I feel every word
Ever heard of killswitch engage numbnuts
@@daveclark3829 lol that was funny. Killswitch is fucking legit. So was this though.
1:26 Courtney's siren vocals piercing through the evil instrumental in the background gives me chills everytime
That beautiful vocal progression... Building up to the eerie whispers: "Sun Killer, sing me to sleep"
"Sun Killer, sing me to sleep"
SUN KILLER SING ME TO SLEEEEEEP!!!!
It's called a Breakdown
@@darthnovo3526 🤓
Getting some lacuna coil and evanescence vibes on this song. Well, It's Spiritbox, always 🔥🔥
Kinda reminds me of Cane Hill, also.
absolutely
@@trevorprice13 ditto
@@trevorprice13 ong
Wel, courtney likes evanescence, she interviewed amy lee last time in her podcast
Best song on this album. I love the buildup and then that massive ending breakdown. Fucking stellar.
Sun
Kil
Ler
Sing
Me
To sleep
her voice is so freaking amazing, the whole band is bomb af
Frfr!!
Dude, that build up at the end for those destroying vocals, amazing. Instant shivers.
I know this isn't technically one of their heaviest songs on the album... but when the drums and bass come in in that first verse... it just sounds so fuckin menacing. This album is one of the best modern metal albums I've heard in a long long time.
This song punched me in the throat and I loved it.
I heard Evanescence/Amy Lee vibe from the first seconds this track. This is amazing, love it. Perfect album, poetry lyrics
Bruh just because it's a woman rocker doesn't mean she sounds like Evanescence. The only similarity here is that they both are women.
Came here from Apricot's cover of this song, gotta say it's good
That scream tho
I came here because I was playing CoD MW2 - 2022 a month back, and some guy was blasting this song down the mic. I actually liked it and asked who made it. Haha
Same this and her vision are really good
Same
Good artists feed each other.
Day 2: Twenty playthroughs later, and this still hits as hard as the first time.
Day 7: Fifty playthroughs...still hits just as hard. I'm actually more emotional this time around. It'll be an album my friends and I will treasure and talk about forever.
Hell yeah brother 🤘🏻
This tune is absolute fire. From the haunting opening to the Nordic / Celtic horror vibes. Wow! An incredible start to the album.
Perfect ending to a perfect song.
This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs available on earth right now.
Incredible vocals. 😍
My favorite so far. So heavy. What a HELL of a way to open an album! This is haunting and I absolutely love everything about it.
That drop into the breakdown at the end is so satisfying. Best use of building tension, to then release it the way they did i have ever heard in any song.
I've listened to this 10000 times already... Can't get enough of it
This song was a journey wow
Legit tears came from her singing
So stoked for this album. Absolutely love this band.
This album is beyond good, AOTY for sure
This is killer and the whole album comes out on my birthday that's even more awesome
A sun killer, some would say
@@CalebFrush they would say that lol
Happy Birthdayyyyy
@@tylerballard4170 Thanks man I appreciate it
Happy birthday!!
This music is so atmospheric and so powerful at the same time.
Spiritbox are so talented.
🇵🇹🤘
I can't even say how much I want a music video for this song
That music video is your own life
i want more songs like this 😫
Song gets better every time i hear it.
1:53 Is beautiful ong, best part of the song imo
Sheer orgasmic soo good then it cuts off so suddenly such a tease!!!!
So refreshing to know that there is still music out there that can still make me feel.
I felt that
1:58 Tell me the waves won't rise
And monsters will fade with time....
Part still moves me to tears after all this time .
Sooo good but so short!!!! Major tease which kills me as then it's this crazy ass build then SUN KILLER SING ME TO SLEEP 😂
The breakdown at the end of this song alone made a lifelong Spiritbox fan out of me. Listening to Eternal Blue in full cemented it. One full playthrough and I was blown away.
That ending is unbelievable
Song is a master class in tension/release - verse rhythm has an atmospheric Meshuggah feel - slow motion headbanger.
One good thing to come out of Instragram reels is finding this song and band
New Gen Evanescence vibes on this album. 🔥🔥🔥
My favorite song 🤩
To the people coming from Froot's cover:
Welcome to one of the best metalcore bands in the genre
But also you should have been here before froot. Just saying
@@idyllicisaac5922 if it took someone this long to find them, they probably weren't in the genre to begin with lol
Hi and thanks for the welcome! Now gotta ask: how come metalcore isn't considered metal to some people?
@@corncobbob2326 I don't have the slightest idea. Probably metal elitists tho
@@e.ee.e7786 ugh and don't even get me started on nu-metal! I don't get why people and even artists/bands (you have no idea how sad I was learning Green Day, another fav band I liked, hates nu-metal) hate on it when some of the songs there are absolute jams and it contributed by serving as a gateway.
She is swimming through the océano of melodies 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is one hell of an opening song, immediately got chills during the chorus because I just knew it would keep building. Y'all never miss.
How can I sleep with your voice in my head?..
Can't wait to see Nik's reaction
this guy gets it
I can already see his stank face
Same hahaha
Boomers shouldn’t be doing reaction videos.
@@Joeo-qk2du who you calling a boomer?
After so long this song still up there, the second chorus just brings me to another dimension
Courtney's voice is divine! Probably my favourite song of the album!
Tha little cute frog and the the most epic plot twist in my entire life ! I DECLARE MYSELF FAN RIGHT NOW!
This whole album did absolutely not disappoint. My favorite album this year hands down
I was waiting for her to scream. I could feel it coming. I could feel it in my soul.
Anybody else got the goose bumps listening to this ethereal masterpiece?
THIS
Eargasm.
literally in the first 10 seconds
shivers
Everytime I’ve listened to it. To me, bands should make a statement with track 1 on an album, and this is easily one of the best openers I’ve ever heard
Masterpiece
This album has Hybrid Theory potential... Feels like a superior music and natural step forward for contemporary metal music...
@infinity I just thought from the success point of view. For example if Sony or WB release this album it could have almost that Hybrid Theory selling numbers... But we live in a whole different era now... Record labels are different and production is different.
@@milospetrovic2131 yeah bro I fully get where you are coming from... hybrid theory really shook the scene up for a debut album, it had so much on 1 album that varied so much and was unheard of... this album has that same feel to me man... many debut albums have come and go for me including my favourite bands over the time... they all pale in comparison to this album and the amazing feeling behind it... this is special and if this is the quality they are gonna drop on debut then imagine a few years down the track :)
@@HKSMan05 You are right! Imagine the situation in which Spiritbox is releasing Reanimation type of album after this... Or signing with WarnerBrothers or RoadRunner for this album and being supported with full speed ahead marketing...
Couldn't agree more with your point. They really have the potential to raise the bar for metal music.
@@Rodrigo-wu3xi That's right Rodrigo! :)
Banger! 1:26 Gives me 'Call of Duty' Zombie's hidden song vibes.
3:04 Omg, just killing it. Such a banger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been listening to this on repeat. Courtney's vocals are just so damn AMAZING!!!
I gotta say this album is different from what I expected it to be but its insanely good
Can I ask what did you expect?👀
@@CartmanRobin I second this question
Ever since constance every time i hear courtneys voice i think of my grandma… thank you
The vocals and the riffs. Omgg I'm dying.
I cant even put into words how much I love this song. The album is sooooo good as a whole but this one right here. This band can absolutely do no wrong in my eyes
This is definitely my favorite song on the album. Most music I put on with Courtney in it I find my self tearing of joy, someone said they’re glad music like this exist that can make them feel and they do it EVERY TIME. Her voice and the mix of guitar tone, is unmatchable with the right melodies. Truly brings tears to my eyes. TELL ME THE WAVES WONT RISE 🙏🏻
I just listened to the new BMTH song and now listening to this, this is wayyyyy better.
Ikr
Why would you do the former?
@@JayFFAFAlesanaES Because they're still a good band regardless of what you think of their non-heavy music.
Both songs are good in their own ways. DiE4u is catchy, while this bangs. Why choose when you can have both?
@@shona5512 they have literally hopped from trend to trend without even trying to hide it. Clearly their labels producers have helped them do it, too... But if you like boy bands, you like boy bands.
Best ending to a song.
OH MY GOD! THIS SONG, BLOWS MY MIND! HER VOICE! OH MY GOD, HER VOICE! HEAVENLY! ANGELIC IN ITS SWEET, POETIC, OH SO SILKY, SMOOTHNESS! I JUST CANNOT TAKE THE ABSOLUTE PERFECTION OF THIS MASTERPIECE!
And that's why she will always be in my fantasy band
Another absolute masterpiece. The whole thing amplifies emotions tenfold. THIS is how music should make you feel.
This track takes the throne
Just listened to these guys today & I am hooked! Perfect blend of brutality and serenity!
Spoken like someone who has a true appreciation of music.
This and Eternal Blue sound so huge, so dramatic. Spiritbox is a multidimensional, this doesn't sound like a debut album, the complexity of the sound, the intricacy of the lyrics, this album is a trailblazer
Well the band is full of musicians who have been in the game for about a decade well Court and her husband at the least
Tesseract is better imo. Way more rhythmically complex, and ethereal. You can hear their influence in spiritbox though. Bottom line, both bands kick ass.
anyone else come here to check them out from hearing froot? there freaking amazing
I can't help but keep listening to Spiritbox...
I edged to this
I can’t pick a favorite. But sun killer is upppp there!!
Best song on the album, and that's high praise!
This song has all what a song needs.
I've never heard an opener that made me want to keep coming back to it instead of hearing the rest of the album, but this is it dang it
Best album ever
Courtney's voice has an Amy Lee quality with FLAWLESS screaming capacity😍✨🤛Agree with "hauntingly beautiful" & am SOOOO glad I discovered this band!!
This band is unique
Haunting voice 🔥🔥🔥
The sound is so breathtaking.
Froot send me. Good find too.
Wild records where everything is wild
honestly, getting heavy Lacuna Coil vibes. i fucking love it. SPIRITBOX BABYYYYYY
I already know this album is gonna be a banger 100%. This song is amazing!
so gorgeous ughhhh. i love metal with a sophisticated edge
They never miss 😌
This singer is fucking amazing holy shit
This is art
