2023 was Sleep Token's year without any doubt. They didn't just blow the roof off, they blew the whole fucking building off. This band went from a supporting act and playing 500 seats venues as a headliner (by the end of 2022) to selling out their whole world tour and playing 6000 seats venues within just a few months.! And they deserve the whole world...

[@emilylothchomphou3716]

2023 Sleep Token has changed me in so many ways. They literally make you ascend to another level when you hear them. I wish nothing but happiness for Sleep Token. May they forever create for us to consume and worship.

[@theskincareskinny5006]

I am so sad I didn’t find them sooner because I missed the damned tour and now I will probably have to wait for another album to see them 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@godscoldhands77]

@@theskincareskinny5006 If you‘re new to the party, please don‘t get fanatic. Yes, they are outstanding and deeply touching - but it‘s still just a band making music. I‘m listening to ST since 2018 and saw them five times live, three times this year. Speaking about the audience this year, the shows were the worst I’ve seen in ages. The crowds were always so embarrassing and annoying. This band deserves every possible success, but their newly fanbase is just a total pain in the ass. Already far worse than this annoying circus that also surrounds the band Ghost. Ghost lost a lot of fans from day one (including me) because of all these fanatics that hopped onto the train during the last 5-6 years. And there are already a lot of ST fans from day one who hate what this newly fanbase makes of this band. Enjoy, love and cherish their music but please, keep yourself calmed down and don‘t get fanatic about them. It ruins the joy of liking and loving their music. Peace.

@@godscoldhands77 yeah honestly when I love a band, I LOVE a band… but I’m not a d!ck about it 😆 the last band I felt this passionately about was Tool, when I first discovered them waaaaaay back in 2001 (still love them btw). I am not a person who goes to a lot of concerts/shows, either… the last kind of bigger show I went to was Big Gigantic in 2016, before that was Nateva festival in my hometown in 2010, and before that was Tool in 2007. But I do want to see them live at least once. Feels a crime not to.

[@reginaclifton4569]

​@theskincareskinny5006 I find it interesting how many of us are massive Tool fans and then discovered ST. This has that intensity and aww from when I first heard Tool thoroughly. So many bands are amazing to me but not every single thing they do! I'm obsessed

I started off just being obsessed with The Summoning but with each play through of Take Me Back To Eden I find more and more to love about the whole album.

[@sithil]

"WHY ARE YOU NEEVVVVVVEER REALLLLLLLLLL!" my favorite track on the album. Not as intricate as something like the Summoning or Take me Back to Eden but this one just hits different.

[@Paladin1034]

I don't think it's the best on the album, that'd have to be the title track, but it is my favorite, especially that moment. After months and hundreds of listens it still gives me chills every single time.

If this band ever plays the Royal Albert Hall with a full Orchestra behind them nothing will stop me from seeing it live.

[@TheWarsn]

I would empty my bank account

I’d spend so much to see that.

[@RVFFICA]

I'm right behind you 😂 after listening to bmth play doomed at the royal Albert I need to see something like that in person

[@JesusFriedChrist]

We NEED to hear Euclid with a full orchestra. There’s actually a guy that has made his own orchestral arrangements and added them to Sleep Token songs, his channel is Jamie Turton, and his version of Euclid is sublime. It just sounds like it was meant to be.

[@Verifiedsinger]

Even better II the drummer is doing the beats on the drum kit. No programmed beats. He is nothing short of amazing along with the rest of the band.

[@Dolllllfaceee]

It's really just ii and Vessel. Iiii & iv are just touring members. On the Albums Vessel does everything sorry of the drums, ii covers that (obvs). They truly are incredible.

[@msjessica0588]

WHY ARE YOU NEVER REAL..... Def a fave for me. Like some other people have said, I think this is the most underrated song on the album and I really hope it gets concert time in the new year 😍

[@tiredguy709]

That line is just so deep, it’s not just the lyrics or the delivery but notice how low the guitar is chugging when he says REAL. I believe these guys play in drop D1 which is an entire octave plus a step down from standard guitar tuning. You just can’t get much lower than that and the absolute heaviness of the tone really underscores the weight of the line “why are you never real”. That chug there is one of my favorite parts of the song

i have one complain to this specific song... it's short! lol. they knew they wrote a beautiful song and it being written that way will leave audience wanting more and more. that's why their songs stick so much and us listeners keep one song on repeat sometimes... and the whole album is a banger!

This also happens to be an amazing song for testing audio equipment, especially imaging, detail and seperation when everything hits towards the end. It hit my top listened to songs purely because I was testing IEMs with it. Entire song has it all, multiple genres, not too long, can get a really good sense of and IEM or headphone from this song alone. Not just that he sings in a low register and then later higher, so you can test it for vocal too.

[@F13thvoorhees]

The most incredible band I've found ages. The application of all of these different styles, poetic lyrics, and a truly otherworldly craft for creating songs that transcend time and space sonically... A sound broader than can believed in a room larger than imagination. Their production and sonic approach is second to nothing.

Is it just me, or does it still feel like there is A LOT of headroom with this band even with how good everything already is? I feel like they’re just in their groove and like they could just turn it up and get even more intricate and technical and keep it as beautiful as this at any moment’s notice

[@eskii6565]

I have a feeling their fourth album will put them in greatest band of all time conversation (although I’m ready to give them that title lol) on a public level. It’s time for them to be handed awards. It’s been grammy time since the first one

Loved your reaction brotha. Personally I think this song is criminally underrated! The dark chords under the chorus are absolutely fire and the vocals + drums go together so well. Interesting choice to go black and white with the video. Was that a call back to something like an old black and white ghost movie?

Honestly that whole album is a masterpiece listened to from beginning to end and a nice cap on what seems to be an album trilogy. I feel the pain that he carries and they transport you to that place so well and convey those feelings like experts.

Anyone who is a fan of Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa is somebody that I definitely need to turn on to some really good stuff ,that I'm guessing, most of your listeners won't know.. start with this one... Holly Cole.. when she was with the Holly cole trio.... Que Sera Sera.... From the "no smoking in bed"CD.... Also the" I can see clearly now" track...
