Sleep Token - Ascensionism [REACTION]

[@carriefish]

Just popping in with the correct lyrics ☺️ "Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language? Synapses snap back in blissful anguish Tell me you met me in past lives, past lie Past what might be eating me from the inside, darling Half algorithm, half deity Glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream" Also, "blood stains on the collar, please just don't ask" Sleep Token are something very special. ✨️ Worship! 🖤

I hate that everyone uses this lyric video with wrong lyrics it bothers me so much 😂

[@carriefish]

@RollDamage Right! People being introduced to ST with lyrics that make no sense 🥲 I hate that they haven't taken it down and corrected it 😩

The deep breath into the scream at 14:28 hit me like a freight train as well the first time I heard this song. So much emotion behind that scream, it's beautiful.

[@idique1]

To my understanding Sundowning (their first album) is the time during the relationship. This Place Will Become Your Tomb is the aftermath of the separation. Take Me Back to Eden is a recollection of everything. The good, the bad, and the healing afterward. I would honestly recommend starting from the very beginning and react to it all. It's an emotional masterpiece. Worship! 🙌

[@nyxieuwu]

YES !!! HE DID ASCENTIONISM !!!!!

[@parkinglotpanda]

I DID!!!!

[@EvanAgee]

I'm a simple man, you get chills while listening to Sleep Token and mention Periphery, I subscribe.

[@DanSkinny]

Enjoyed your reaction sir! Looking forward to the whole album reaction!

[@brianalmeida1964]

I concur 🤘 ✌️

[@largeformatlandscape]

is that all the heavy we get? HAHAHAHAHAH!

[@largeformatlandscape]

So many smart jazz changes ... he's definitely done high end jazz stuff in the past

[@sarahpelosi4213]

If you do euclid as a seperate vidio, i would suggest you listen to their first song on their first album The night does not belong to god... The two songs connect!

[@YogiGeek]

This reaction was great! Youre in for a great ride listening to the full album - you've still got some genre bending surprises to encounter. I can't wait to see the reaction!

[@TobiiRheaStarr]

Just found your channel and really liked this reaction. Sleep Token are my favourite band and I look forward to more reactions to them and to the possible full album/EP reacts. I would start at the beginning and work through as there’s a lot of callbacks etc. I’m gonna paste something I always put on ST reactions. Worship! 🖤 Yassss! Sleep Token are the best band I have ever come across and the recent album is definitely my AOTY! You should go down the rabbit hole now. They’re genre bending and use elements of everything from rock, metal, RnB, trap, hip hop, gospel, and more. Even if you don’t like one song don’t write them off as every song is different and as you can see from this one they switch up completely through the songs, also don’t be thrown off by some of them being 7-8 minutes long either as it goes by far too quickly. You should start at the beginning and work your way through as they tell a story and have call backs to a lot of them. The band are anonymous, I and others know who they are but won’t reveal out of respect to the band and fans but the singer goes by the moniker Vessel, drummer, who is a beast is II, bassist III and guitarist IV. From London UK. As far as their discography goes they brought out two EPs called One and Two, then 2 singles called Jaws and The Way That You Were, then the three albums Sundowning, The Place Will Become Your Tomb, then TMBTE (Take Me Back To Eden). They’ve done five covers that I’m aware of. One being Hey Ya by OutKast, I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston, Is It Really You? By Loathe and When The Party’s Over by Billie Eilish, Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. His Vocal range I believe is B ♭2 to F#5 and he has a wonderful chest voice, head voice and scream. I have never hyper fixated on a band like I have with these! Loved the react and Will subscribe and hopefully see many more. 🖤 The trilogy = Seduction. Destruction. Liberation.

[@solldude]

Just noticed, thats 3 eyes

[@tracyraines1059]

Really noticed that the first time I heard it. Not very many people talk about that line

[@tracyraines1059]

Vessel seems to be a super intelligent well cultured and has a good understanding of music. And has a way of making people feel emotions they don't want to feel and connect with music and other people on a whole other level. And that is an incredible and beautiful thing.

"I don't want a sad song" - RIP

[@chrisangles6278]

I feel like I’ve known you for years lmao. Sleep Token for life!!!

[@СтаниславГубин-р4у]

🔥🔥🔥

[@danigeocr]

Welcome to Worship!!!!!!!

[@matthewjakubowski9020]

Your reaction was proper. Have a like my guy. Keep up with the ST and I got a sub with your name on it.

[@GahMehGrrrr]

song of the year

[@johncarpenter3751]

I love that the Djenty stuff is also melodic. That’s new for me I saw Meshuggah open for TOOL in 2001 and the only way I knew one song from the next was the fact that they stopped in between

[@StarStuffGal321]

The whole album! 👏🏼 I am there for it! Save Euclid for last!

[@johncarpenter3751]

Sleep Token reminds me of Deftones. If your not familiar with Deftones check out two songs of theirs to get the idea how diverse they are. Digital Bath and Knife Party are the two songs I suggest you start with

[@matthewjakubowski9020]

STRONG Deftones vibes in Gods if you haven't been there. Goon Squad specifically.

[@likwified]

Bro….where’s the full album reaction? I loved your reaction and ramblings. I need more.

[@parkinglotpanda]

It's coming. Had some family stuff happen and we haven't been home all that much. But i should be getting back to normalcy soon.. hopefully

[@likwified]

@@parkinglotpanda sending good vibes! Hope all is well.

[@parkinglotpanda]

Thank you very much 🙏 life happens. We're just along for the ride.

[@CellarStudioProductions]

awesome content! Looking forward to seeing you pop up in my notifications in the future! +1sub

[@tracyraines1059]

I believe when he says you make me wish i could disappear he meant that because of what he says in the lines before so to me it seems like he wants to disappear because she has turned him into pretty much being like her cuz he turned the tables on her at the end cuz the first lines is i know what you want from ...... So you take what you want and leave. Does that makes sense?

[@wickedPrints3256]

What's up with the spinning popsicle in the background? 😂

[@parkinglotpanda]

My wife makes tumblers lol

[@ChadTheGirlDad]

1:00 I don’t think it’s about a particular relationship. I feel that’s fairly reductionist and small for such a massive record

[@avenuke]

Enjoyed the Reaction! Odd Question but would you tell me what Mic you are using?

[@parkinglotpanda]

Absolutely, it's a Fifine A6t

[@GahMehGrrrr]

Lyrics all nod back to Vore and the meaning. Google vore

[@larrycable1827]

Don't do anymore of Take me back. Reason being that this is the last album in a trilogy. Especially the last track Euclid. There are so many callbacks to past tunes and before Sleep Token. You would be missing out big time. But hey your choice

[@parkinglotpanda]

I've actually gone back to before sundowning and listened to a lot of their stuff as a fan, outside of this whole reaction thing. But I appreciate the insight! As a fan of bands like nightwish, I understand how important a story/background can be to the importance of a song.
