    I've never seen someone react to this Sleep Token song, in particular, let alone for a FIRST reaction... I wonder why you chose this one, out of all of them? Thankfully ST only drops bangers lol. I would highly recommend Take Me Back to Eden, Ascensionism, Euclid, Apparition, The Summoning, Atlantic, and/or Rain. However, every song is incredible. I haven't heard a single ST song that I haven't enjoyed in some way. Their variance is incredible.

    oh, I'm happy, finally Sleep Token Vessel's voice is very deep, you can feel the emotion in his voice, and that's one of the reasons why I really like his vocals. He has a very big range. He can hit the highest notes and go down to guttural screams (in just one song lol) I'm looking forward to “Take me back to Eden”, it's not just a song, it's a masterpiece. Also, I recommend listening to “Blood Sport (from the room below)”, it's a very beautiful emotional song

    Take Me Back to Eden is not "a lot to take in" in the sense that it is overwhelming or anything. Its just simply a beautiful song that is constructed in such a magical way that it is truly an unforgettable experience to listen to for the first time. I hope that you will react to it sooner than later. I've seen so many reactors say they will definitely listen to more or excited to hear more and then they don't release another ST reaction for months. I get that there are a ton of requests and songs out there to listen to, but I just can't understand how some people can hear ST and not want to immediately dive deep into the rabbit hole. ST reactions do numbers too. Worship.

    @thevocalyst - These sleep token albums are a whole journey. The closing song to the trilogy of albums, EUCLID, is extraordinary song writing perfection. The closure and healing all Sleep Token fans needed. It’s the realisation it’s all over. It’s okay to look back at the good times. But ultimately it’s okay to move on. It’s time to be somebody new. It’s so fucking beautiful. Loaded with callbacks from songs and moments, notably tied directly to the open song on the first album ‘the night does not belong to God’. One worth checking out for you particularly would be the live version of ‘Bloodsport’ from the room below.

    There's so many details into their songs, for example: When you listen to Vore (one of their heaviest songs yet, or the heaviest) you can hear at the very beginning a swallow sound, which makes sense for the song. Here, that "crackling" noise is present in the "back" almost the entire song, those are thin layers that adds so much to each song.

I also loved the choice of your first Sleep Token reaction. Perfect song and I'd love to see more reactions. ❤ Btw Vessel, the singer, also recordered all the other instruments except drums(that did the drummer named II).III (bassist) and IV(guitarist) are so far just part pf the touring. So Vessel is so freaking talented to sing, write, compose the songs and play all those instruments 🔥

Vassel's voice has an almost metallic sound to me, Vassel II on drums is an absolute machine. Both of these are reinforced by Vassel III and IV on guitar and bass to round out this powerhouse of a band. ~Worship

    My friend introduced me to Sleep Token last year with a song called The Summoning because it's basically ADHD for metal heads. I like their stuff. Unfortunately metal just isn't where my heart is these days so I haven't delved their back catalogue. This is also my first time for this song and I bloody like it! With that being said, these days my heart sits with American country music, so could you maybe react to something by Tyler Childers, maybe?

    Dive in man. The Summoning is more of an outlier and not what the vast majority of Sleep Token songs sound like. Especially their older stuff. They are mostly very melodic and the lyrics will actually blow you away if you pay attention. Do yourself a favor and check out Take Me Back to Eden, or if you want some older stuff, Atlantic is a great song to start out with. Its the first song on their second album entitled "This Place Will Become Your Tomb". It sounds dark and heavy, but I assure you its not. The lyrics cover a wide variety of topics, some dark but the music on that album definitely leans more towards the side of ambient/melodic.
