What is your favorite song by Sleep Token?

[@songbirdetv]

All of them xD

[@saranaturegirl123]

Same, all of them 😊

[@quidohmi9286]

Can't pick. They're all so different.

[@Chasingmoundbuilders]

Euclid, the night does not belong to god, Atlantic but all of these albums are as a single piece. Similar to Liber Novus by Jung. A process of dealing with shadow and trauma and transformation.

[@wickedPrints3256]

Granite is my favorite. It's very hard to pick a favorite. You should check out Atlantic.

[@songbirdetv]

I realized I was wrong about a couple of things with this after filming: 1) They had EPs before Sundowning! I had heard a few of the songs on them (Fields of Elation, Jericho) but did not realize they weren't singles- which I have now corrected and listened to all of them :) The EPs are, simply, "One" (2016) and "Two" (2017) 2) Sleep is, I think, genderless? So I said "goddess" but should have said "deity."

[@Chasingmoundbuilders]

The trickster. Definitely genderless. These albums are vessel dealing with the process of individuation. The lyrics scream alchemy.

[@Nonya12608]

Their music is always part of the story. This song is repetitive, and grows in ferver, because he tries harder and harder each time, to rid himself of his love for her, but it's a cycle he can't break. I think this takes place inside his heart. This is him fighting his emotions. The ribbons represent his failures to move on. Keep going!

[@AceofBadeReacts]

That's a great description for the video

[@juttaman25]

The ribbon is each time trying to save the relationship, over and over and over.

[@alexm.handro1313]

@@juttaman25 interesting take. I always thought it was how many times he has repeated the same dream\events over and over.

Here to worship!🙏🏼🤘🏼💕

The numbers are indeed longitud and latitudes and the spot they point to is point Nemo. The spot furthest from land.

[@AceofBadeReacts]

That's really creative

[@snoozwriter]

Subscribed for more Sleep Token! Best way to understand the lore is start at the first ep. It is an intense ride, but so worth it. We Sleep Token fans are a loyal bunch. #SleepToken

[@songbirdetv]

i'd love to spend a day doing this - i may have just found my plan for this weekend! :D

[@AceofBadeReacts]

Totally valid. That might be where the next reaction happens

[@michaelpalma6346]

I absolutely love this song, one of my favorite ST songs, plus I think the music video is really cool

[@AceofBadeReacts]

It's very stylistic for sure

[@shadowninja6444]

This is one of my favorites from ST. Definitely need to check out more from these guys. If you want to go more SlipKnotty style check out Vore or God's. Those definitely are way heavier.

[@songbirdetv]

Wanted to start him out more melodically, but definitely would love to see his reaction to Gods

[@AceofBadeReacts]

I'll add them to the list

[@mattthompson5908]

Another thing is vessel writes all the music except the drums

[@AceofBadeReacts]

That's really cool

[@quidohmi9286]

Love this band so much. I'm not sure about the moon phase but the numbers are depths. Each track has its own art and associated depth like you're sinking to the bottom of the sea. It's a really beautiful album. And I think it's him trying to move on from someone who won't accept the love he has for her and at the same time he can't push it out of him. Maybe it fills him up so fully that he doesn't know how to be without it anymore. And IF you want to listen to more Sleep Token I would really suggest listening to the albums in order. Not on track is a skip and it hits so damn hard if you do. The themes build up onto one another so well.

[@songbirdetv]

@quidohmi9286 oh yes, the water theme for TPWBYT! That makes sense- thanks for reminding me of that. The visualizers have watery kind of themes, right? Hard agree about listening in album order. They're some of the only albums I'll listen to front to back, and it's honestly the only way to do it imo.

[@AceofBadeReacts]

That is really cool. Yeah it might be a good point to start somewhere at the beginning

[@ripeorangesound]

Points off for the slipknot comparison. Why does nobody ever go with daft punk?

[@AceofBadeReacts]

It is what it is. 50 points to Gryffinpuff

[@mattthompson5908]

Def a great song but just a small portion of their talent. This is a softer one

[@songbirdetv]

I wanted to ease him in 😅 what's one you recommend that's heavier?

[@mattthompson5908]

@songbirdetv the first song I heard from the was alkaline. Maybe do the summoning but the drumeo II playthru version since he adds more to the song like a drum solo in the empty section. Take me back to eden and The offering are great

[@songbirdetv]

@@mattthompson5908 omg that whole video of ii by Drumeo was SO GOOD, i weep. Take Me Back to Eden is up there in my favorites, for sure.

[@mattthompson5908]

@songbirdetv yea that whole interview was great. But the summoning got it's own separate video that they filmed the same day but they released it later

[@AceofBadeReacts]

Yeah that's what I was informed

[@Chasingmoundbuilders]

British slipknot? lol I’m trying hard not to be triggered by this 😂

[@songbirdetv]

😂😂😂

[@AceofBadeReacts]

Haha I mean I went with a description and used the closest thing I could. Can you believe someone wanted the comparison to be Daft Punk for a band that does 0 techno?

[@Chasingmoundbuilders]

@ yeah in fairness there isn’t a lot to compare to is there? 💚

[@AceofBadeReacts]

@Chasingmoundbuilders there's really not. Which is a good thing. I always go in as blind as I can, even if I try to look for comparisons as a comfort coping mechanisim

[@Chasingmoundbuilders]

@ sleep token forces us to cope. I believe their albums are as powerful or more so than Jung’s liber Novus, but essentially describing the same process
