REACTION to SLEEP TOKEN (The Offering) 💤🔥👌

[@1994mvs]

"I don't care what people call him, i call him great " that made me laugh

[@ChaseCarneson]

FACTS!!!!

[@norgamdir9428]

Ya know what? I think you should just listen to the entirety of Sleep Token's Sundowning album in full. That album is a game changer imo. so many emotions and styles. I understand if that's a tall order, but I think it is worth it for you to do so.

[@ChaseCarneson]

I'm not against this!!!!

[@patbateman8116]

Chase Carneson Please do man! It’s such a sick album. Every song off it is my fav song off it haha. Can’t wait for more by you and Sleep Token! 🤘🤘

[@toolbox7293]

I have seen Sleep Token live!! WOW!! What a vocal!! What a drummer!! What a music!! Damn!!

[@sirmcbeardslyesq9237]

Most of us respect, and don’t wan to find out who the members are, because that’s what they want. They want the focus less on them, and more on the music. I honestly love the mystery, and hope that it can last forever. Worship!

Wow..I'm glad you got to check them out and and this was also my first time hearing rhem

I understand the purpose of the anonymity, and respect the hell out of it. But I will say I know who Vessel and II is 😂 but it doesn't remove me from the art at all

[@trottingfoxinc]

To quote the top comment on the original video "Drummer is an Absolute Unit"

[@ThatRyRyGuy]

In an interview 'Vessel' said the band wants to invoke a different emotional response in every song they create. I adore the fact you can really enjoy a song, then come here and fall in love with it even more with the in depth analysis you can provide. 10/10 yet again brother.

[@ZediBaptista]

Interview?? They did an INTERVIEW??? I thought their whole thing was that they don't speak to anyone and act like anonymous monks!? Wtfff

[@maisielannin6447]

“I don’t care what they call him…I’m calling him great” absolutely tickled me🤣

[@Xarah8]

I love the subtle excitement. Never overreacted, just pure admiration and then you give us musical insights. Thanks for making me discover this awesome band at your first reaction to them. Big fan of your channel!

[@ChaseCarneson]

Thank you very much for the support and kind words. Appreciate it.

The outro is just so amazing, I can't remember the last time I could just hear that alone and groove to it, no need for words.

My other ending like this to me is the song Mom by highly suspect

This song is incredible. And your breakdown of it is flawless. I love watching you educate and cut a song up. If not for you I wouldn't have heard of this amazing band. Thank you.

This makes me very happy. Thank you for the awesome feedback and support.

@@ChaseCarneson most definitely. Keep up the great content. Anyone can make a reaction video but watching someone who knows wth they are talking about is a breath of fresh air.

[@Lucerious92]

This has to be one of the more interesting groups you’ve covered so far. Like you said it’s almost as if there are several songs in one. They really incorporate melody in a cool way

[@oh_hey_its_b]

So so good. We recently discovered them and WOW. Brilliant song writing!

[@ChaseCarneson]

Amazing right???

[@WishMount]

I haven't seen a reaction/breakdown of a piece of music in a very very longtime, holy moly it's refreshing to see a musically informed person dissect things this way, definitely going through your catalogue now! Don't worry mate, you're explaining things perfectly to those who understand the field :)

[@darthtater6543]

This track is my SPIRIT animal! ❤️ Worship

[@Dave.M.23]

I love the song as a whole, but what really sticks out to me is the incredible drumming.

[@sigma_w0lf]

sounds like hozier met up with deftones and had a jam... 🤘🏼 you should check out teenage wrist - "stoned, alone" or "afterglow" next. shoegaze is awesome..

[@Seiferboi]

You're right, the voice DOES sound familiar! I can't think of who he reminds me of, but I think I've heard that voice, or one similar, on my iPod.

[@cjdxn]

You HAVE to react to Thornhill Where we go when we die. Its any music lovers dream. Unique, banging, incredible vocals, and just incredible. Ill eat my shoes if you dont like it!

[@naderbarrak8543]

absolutely. discovered sleep token and thornhil over lockdown. temperer is a great song also

[@LeatherDaddy97]

Reptile is fantastic too

[@Sikasz]

@@LeatherDaddy97 reptile is masterpiece

[@ernonikkola1084]

I like the foreshadowing of the more disturbing riff that occurs first at around 8:10 in the background.

[@ChaseCarneson]

Amazing right?

[@everett880]

One of my mates is a big fan of Sleep Token but I never got around much with it. I like this song, should’ve listened to them more. It reminds me of Deftones but then Vessel’s singing here sort of leaning towards indie style. I was thinking of Sleeping At Last too, but darker and accompanied by those heavy prog-rock riffs. Thanks for this song, Chase, will check out more from them.

[@ChaseCarneson]

Awesome. This makes me happy.

[@Lifeonnmarz]

im quite a bit late to responding to this- but listen to loathe!! and you might like chino from deftones other project- team sleep:)

[@manphonefunny2227]

Song of the decade.

[@leahsmith5718]

Saw them live last year and oml they are so much better in person! And their drummer is an absolute unit fr. I hope they come out w more stuff here soon!

[@ChaseCarneson]

Absolutely love these guys. Jealous that you saw them live.

[@earthscorcher]

Coming back to see you react to this one was so special. Of all the songs I've seen you analyze and react to, this one made you physically react so much more than the others.

[@megalondonkleuter]

The visual were astonishing, it really fits well with the titel of the song. Many visuals where up side down or sometimes even sideways

[@ChaseCarneson]

I was mesmerised.

[@gothcow1]

Hey Chase! Just found your channel when i was looking for sleep token reactions and i love the style to your videos! Oftentimes, i feel like reaction channels don't really add much to the song and kind of give their opinion with not much analysis or added thoughts but you do the exact opposite! I love how you stop and breakdown each part and point out cool things they are doing. I have maybe listened to this song 50 times or more and I never noticed that background noise you pointed out in the beginning! It's stuff like that, that makes me like your videos so much! Also definitely Higher and Bloodsport should be the two next songs of theirs to listen to!

[@ChaseCarneson]

This is awesome. So glad you're enjoying them. Lots more Sleep Token to come.

[@gothcow1]

Chase Carneson excited to see it! Keep up the great work!

[@Pancorania]

I would really recommend Celldweller and Blue Stahli! Eon or Switchback from Celldweller and Ultranumb or Anti You from Blue Stahli!

[@3WWizard]

I must have overlooked your earlier reactions to these guys. I watch the videos pretty much every day so it's weird I missed them. This was very new and cool to me. Time to check out the other reactions.

[@ChaseCarneson]

Appreciate that. They're just amazing!!!

[@michaeldavid3000]

thanks for turning me onto them .. really lovin this.. downloaded the album!!

[@matthewduncan572]

[@ericbrandon2888]

I love your analysis/breakdown of each Sleep Token song; it’s personally given me a deeper appreciation for the band. You definitely get it. Cheers!

[@prometheusfallen]

Dude... I've heard this countless times and never picked up on the vibrato effect on the end of the hook! Great catch!

[@Shorsey30]

"Find Forever" by Issues. Would love to see your take on their style. Blend of r&b/soul vocals, with crunchy metal/funk guitar and bass

[@keltavuokko]

His voice reminds me of the lead singer of a Finnish band called Poets of the fall.

[@LeatherDaddy97]

The whole album is incredible. So masterfully put together. As far as i know the singer is the one producing.

[@josephshiflet8982]

I found Sleep Token around the same time you did your first reaction video and your commentary has given me so much insight into the music. It's like I'm on this Sleep Token journey with you. I'd love to see you do a reaction to Sleep Token's "Blood Sport" (from the room below). You do excellent work, keep it up!

[@ChaseCarneson]

They have been one of my absolute favourite discoveries. So glad you're enjoying them too. Bloodsport is coming up soon

[@novavolex5568]

Hay mate, I stumble to you'r channel with the Nightwish reactions. I truly enjoy how you're catching the idea behind the melody and how are you paying attention to every instrument. I'm guitarist myself but I truly would like to suggest you a song surrounding around the drums. It's song of Meshugga - Swedish dead metal band. If you don't listen to the vocals you may like it. My suggestion is to search for "Meshuggah - Bleed - Tomas Haake".

[@ChaseCarneson]

Have to do this one soon. Thank for this.

[@jonno7649]

I approve this reaction & I approve this band :O DAMN!!!!

[@jhicks11gym]

[@jamestidbits4640]

Preach for the Sleep deity 🙏👏 may Vessel continue to express Sleep’s word

[@robotwaifuengineer]

Am I crazy or is the synth at the end playing a vocal melody from Hypnosis? These songs draw so many parallels.

[@icandyapple]

I hear it too. It’s not exact, but it’s definitely related.

[@ericklaver4001]

I love that song and a great album opener. Hooked immediately.

[@Shorsey30]

WORSHIP

[@Greatlakeskyle.]

Supposedly a fair but small amount of people know who they are because some of the members(for sure not vessel) walk around before and after the show without masks. And about a month ago spiritbox had a stream and Courtney said she knew who they were by their gear because it correlated with another band they saw live. I’ve thought of dm’ing some people that know but I think I’d rather find out later than sooner.

[@MisterBolticus]

Sugar & Bloodsport, especially the latter should be very high on the list Loving the content man, the way you focus in on the production is something I don't see much of at all

[@paravarium]

Sugar would be perfect next, not Higher. Bloodsport you kind of have to save for last like on Sundowning haha. Plus looks like we're getting something new verrryyyy soon 😁

[@Jacqueline.1964]

Só cool! Never heard this music, never heard this band. As a huge NW fan, I first listened to this song with your guidance. And I kinda liked it!

[@ChaseCarneson]

I love these guys. Promise you won't regret listening to more.

[@Spidarys]

Another great reaction and breakdown of some of the elements that create the song. George at G1 Productions does amazing work. "Blood Sport" and "Higher" are great tracks and would love to hear your thoughts on them. There is a possibility of new songs coming out by them on June 20th as well so we have that to look forward to as well! Keep killing it man!

Wasn't quite sure about them at first (this is the first song I've heard of theirs) but the end sold me. I can put this on my 'vibe to listen to while programming' playlist. If you are looking for other suggestions... Unleash the Archers just released a new single from their upcoming album, Abyss.

[@ChaseCarneson]

Keep an eye out tomorrow 😉

[@johnnylemon9610]

the singer's voice sounds really familiar. cant put a name to it, but a pop singer.

Loved the video man. If you are looking for another Sleep Token song go for Dark Signs or Higher. Also, Is It Really You? by Loathe is a beautiful song as well that you should check out.

[@alienlifeform7490]

James Arthur. Same vibrato and upper register. It's Arthur opening up his vocals even more. We'll see.

[@pamf.3290]

My first thought too. The emotive ability of his voice is so similar.🤗

Great video as always! I've never heard of this band but from this video alone they seem worth checking out! I love the "electronic metal" sound in other songs I've heard as well. Also you should embrace the "fluffiness!" You used it on Cleanse the Bloodlines and I thought it was perfect then, too. Speaking of master class and Cleanse the Bloodlines...

[@SandraNelson063]

OK, these folks have STUDIED music and sound engineering. Whatever they do with the "unmasked" part of their lives, there has been YEARS of music experience. If they are that intent on NOT accepting the laurels that they deserve, they must have to have a very bland reputation maintained. They may have to keep going in some sort of professional work that would be hard to do if word got out that they were extremely talented musician/performers. Or I could be completely off the mark. Sleep Token could be a side band of already famous musicians, who just want a separate project band away from their main commitments. Somewhere, somebody knows the truth!

[@ngaugeblading9690]

I think they might have come from different bands. I have mates who used to be in a band on the basik records as well called F.O.E.S and they said they know of I think 2 people in the band. This was at the beginning of the year before I really got into these to further enquire. Although I'm kinda liking the mystery

[@ericbrandon2888]

It was definitely a bit of a mystery and challenge to find out their identities, but revealing Vessel’s identity feels sacrilegious. Worship.

[@dirtyhistorian]

Check out Levitate from this album. I immediately fell in love. Also, as others already suggested, Gods and Blood Sport are fantastic, as is Dark Signs.

[@teion.]

It's hard to even suggest individual Sleep Token songs because the entire Sundowning album is just so good.

[@dirtyhistorian]

@@teion. True, very true. I just hope to catch them live someday, preferably soon. Must be a special experience.

[@juanitaj.]

Love this commentary / critique...it explains on point the various elements of the song which myself as a non muso wanted to articulate when describing this/their songs...why we appreciate this artist / band, thank you P.S. would prefer they didn't fade out the end of the song & played the piano melody more pronounced as the final notes

[@ChaseCarneson]

Thanks for the kindness and support. Yeah I hear you on the outro

[@jessicar5748]

The beginning reminds me strangely of Phantogram “you don’t get me high anymore”

Sleep Token is king. Also, how are you my friend.

@@ChaseCarneson Still going, I guess

[@LYRADdl]

i have a strong suspicion that Vessel (the singer) is EDEN aka Jonathan Ng. if I'm wrong this guy eerily has that same baritone deep melodic type of singing style. his intonations and enunciations are very similar to EDEN. Love his singing nonetheless and this band's sound. maybe that's why he sounds so familiar if you listen to that electronic indie sound that Eden only does really.

[@chrisstrohman4131]

His identity is really easy to find by a quick Google search. I’m not gonna ruin it for anyone on this thread but that’s all I’ll say

I'd suggest Gods next ... If I have one little criticism of Sleep token it's they're a bit formulaic in song structure, its a minor criticism as they do it so well but hopefully any new releases might give more.

Eluveitie are also one of my favourite bands, "King" and "Rebirth" are great introductions to the band, is a mix of Folk-black/Death Metal a lot of armony and a great mix of folk instruments with the power of Metal.
