It always cracks me up when people are shocked when "screamers" can sing. Like the training and control you need to be able to be a metal vocalist is insane. Of course the vast majority of them can sing.

As a dude that worked in the industry, yeah, most of the hardcore/deathcore I met are great singers without the rasp. As a dude that sings and does metal/deathcore, it was adding a layer or 12 to my singing. Controlled singing is one thing, add different flavors of rap and distortion to it is a new game and technique.

I find the original song and Vessel’s vocals make it seem very desperate and broken, like he’s recalling the past or begging. Wills cover and vocals are almost more loving and present, while becoming angry towards the end. It’s like a listening to a love song during and after a relationship!

I absolutely love Will and Lorna Shore. He is the master of vocals. He’s at an elite level. Absolute God tear. But out of the 2 versions, my preference is Sleep Tokens, and here’s why… it’s the breathy vocals. Vessel has left so much breath in the recording that it’s makes it super haunting (to me at least). It gives me chills and it completely “hypnotises” me. Will has a stunning voice, but I am missing the breath in his cover. But that’s not to say I think Will did a bad job cos he absolutely hasn’t. He has covered this song incredibly well. And his cleans are everything!

Sleep Token's version has all these layers Will cant (or didnt want to) reproduce with his cover. the haunting effect gone, half of the atmosphere of the song is gone with it. BUT Will absolutely nailed this cover. It was really cool to hear him sing with clear vocals for once. It's worth noting that this was kinda a '"shot in one take", therefore closer to a live version of a song rather than a studio version. It can explain the lack of many layers on Will's take. Idk if you have already checked it out, but he also covered Wonderful Life (BMTH) and his version is amazing and very different from the original one.

10:20 Katatonia and Sevendust have done something kinda like that (I'm sure other bands as well, these guys are just top of the head). They've released albums that are acoustic/clean versions of their work. 'Dead End Kings' is the metal album from Katatonia while 'Dethroned and Uncrowned' is the same songs in the acoustic/clean style. For Sevendust it was an anthology style album called 'Time Travelers and Bonfires' with some covers of their previous songs along with some original songs. The first track ('Come Down') is incredible, as is the entire album.

He has that sweet golden retriever energy and just seems like someone fun to hang out with. We know nothing about Vessel and the other ST guys, except speculation and that takes away a huge chunk of what makes me love a band IMO.

For me, trying to take my HUGE Sleep Token bias aside, with clean vocals Vessel is head and shoulders above Will. However, bring it to harsh vocals and the tables are completely flipped. Will hands down there. I do think those areas are where both singers focus on anyway, hence the clear strengths of both are so obvious. For those just getting into Sleep Token, try The Offering, Higher, Blood Sport (from the room below), Dark Signs, Atlantic, The Love You Want, Missing Limbs, Nazareth and Jaws are brilliant starting points.

Yeah, Will's cleans are okay, sound kinda thin and a little overproduced, not much richness to the tone and in the bridge for example he doesn't drop the note for the "hypnotize me" part which also just sounds off compared to the original. It's fine, and of the level I would expect from a cover with just a dude and a mic, but yeah not something I can understand placing over the quality of the original. Just a solid homage from a guy that seems to appreciate the original.

I love both equally. I adore Vessel and his voice is stunning however Wills cleans are beautiful! And I love the extra bit at the end he did 🖤

You say you wanna know who they are to thank them, but you really dont have to look very hard to find them. The air of mystery or anonymity provides something to the band that the knowlege just doesnt satisfy. I dig why they keep it a secret, cause you dont know them anyways.

Will is the perfect human. That’s said, there is something about the original that just has a different feel.

His video Bloodsport - with just him is ugh! I cant even put it into words. his voice is just exquisite, the words, the piano, the pain in his voice - chills

just think sleep token felt more like a environment, with good texture and awesome layers and depth evolved from it.

First time i heard Will's cover I had no clue what came over me. I never expected this AMAZING voice from a screamer. A lot of harsh-vocalists can't sing this includes me unfortunately. I need to learn how to sing too...

You should check out "Take Aim" from Sleep Token. It's one of my favorites of theirs (the vocals give me chills every time) and I've only been able to find one reaction for it so far lol

I don't dislike wills version but it doesn't hold a candle to Vessel and idk for me this song didnt need the screams added but I get it, the drummer is the real MVP

Nothing against Wills cover, but I don’t find the emotions like I do with Vessels singing.

Straight up, nothing at all wrong with Wills cover but the original is where it's st. Vessel just has such a unique voice that it works so much better. Great to hear Will do clean vocals though, always like when a deathcore vocalist does clean singing, it really shows off their talent more.

I’m going through this sleep token playlist cause I saw you listened to a whole album and I didn’t look at titles just let it play in order and was so hoping you’d do this song, this song is how I was introduced to them by another KZbin channel drumeo

I just love Will’s voice, so he’s a winner for me, same goes for Chokehold, I much prefer his cover than ST
