Gotta do “the apparition” by them. The most haunting line in their “TMBTE” album. IYKYK

[@oneysays]

yesss full album. This was easily AOTY 2023 for me. it almost ruined other releases because nothing came close to it.

[@vanessameddles2240]

Yes its his voice, I saw them live in Cologne/Germany last December. The venue was very to small it was sold out in 10 minutes. The bassist was missing due he had a family case in the UK, but it was anyway an experience....They use only a very silent computer backing track on the concert, its clear that Vessel is singing live like on the Album even better I would say. If you get a chance I would go lol. The new light show is insane lol

[@Eyeyamgod]

Not altered voice. His voice is really deep when he talks. Also heard him in his last acoustic band when he was young...same voice.

[@TheChronicKarma]

I think it's a combination of his large vocal range and British accent why she thinks it's altered.

[@ashlenamusic]

Ahhh that makes sense

[@ripeorangesound]

@@ashlenamusic “oh, they’re slipknotish” the daft punk erasure here.

[@bamadondon0495]

THIS BANDS MUSIC GIVES YOUR SOULS ITS OWN NATURAL ORGASM

[@Trepanation21]

Oh shit, if you do a full album review for this one, you're going to love it lol. Sick. Sleep Token just kinda does whatever the fuck they want, so it ends up being a pretty creative album. Regardless of whether or not some compositions "land" with people, their artistry is undeniable.

[@wickedPrints3256]

This song is absolutely the best! If I had a chance to go see them I would go.

[@lolpalolo]

Love Sleep Token, top 3 bands I discoverded last year.

[@lea.christine.]

I can’t wait for you to hear Ascensionism. 🖤 Also shout out for the Invent Animate love! 🙌🙌🙌

[@ashlenamusic]

Definitely doing the full album soon :)

[@lea.christine.]

@@ashlenamusici’m so excited, will definitely be watching! 🙌☺️

[@ashlenamusic]

Sweet and yes invent animate are amazing! So kind of them to comment on my video 🥹

[@lea.christine.]

@@ashlenamusic I saw that, they are extremely nice guys. ❤️

[@TheAquaponic1]

The Love You Want, and video... More please! 😁 Seriously, I haven't heard a bad song from them.

[@GabeStellar]

Yessss! One of their best songs. Also from my favorite album by them!

[@Kira-qc4qi]

Thank you so much for giving these guys a chsnce. So thrilled you enjoyed it. Vessel has an incredibly dynamic and capable vocal range. Sometimes there is some processing for effect but he's the real deal. Best in the biz if you ask me

[@ashlenamusic]

Full album reaction is coming Friday!

[@stephendavis75]

Yup full album. Live shows coming up soon. Get your tickets girl

[@kimleith1378]

Protecting ones privacy is so important in todays world. Kudos to Sleep Token for that and also their music as therapy. For sure do some TOOL.

[@ashlenamusic]

Love tool. I’ve seen them live too

[@DRock70]

Granite is another great song!!!

[@ashlenamusic]

It’s soooo good

[@Cinteck]

Before you get too far down the rabbit hole, if you're gonna do a full album reaction I'd recommend starting from the beginning of the trilogy with Sundowning and work your way through them to Take Me Back To Eden. You'll get the whole story that way and it'll definitely be a much better listening experience!

[@ashlenamusic]

Ooooo I like how you think

[@inviz88]

Their new album get's a lot of love, and so it should. But their previous 2 albums are just as good if not better. All 3 are 9/10 to be honest. Can't wait for more of you reactions to them!

[@lynnef1988]

I love Sleep Token! Personally, their previous album "This Place Will Be Your Tomb" is my favourite. Would love to see album reactions for them all if you like Take Me Back To Eden.

[@56cv]

Check out songs by Blacklit Canopy if you are truly obsessed. Vessel is an intelligent and sensitive person. The words he uses in his lyrics, scientific, medical terms, make it stand out. His voice is devine.

[@brandijones6624]

WOW! They are effin awesome! They remind me a bit of Nine Inch Nails. Ever been there???😃😁

[@ashlenamusic]

I love NIN

[@TWMonty]

You’ve heard nothing yet 😅. Melting pot of genres, try to describe the band after hearing the album, it’s so hard; in their own category. Excited for you to hear more!

[@DaedalusX86]

That alexisonfire poster is awesome

[@ashlenamusic]

Thanks it’s from their “farewell” tour haha and signed 🥰

[@ratpwn]

Vessel's vocals tho. I do get the Hip-Hop-Pop-Metal vibes

[@jasonnielsen9683]

Let's just say that if you know what Vessel did before Sleep Token then you know his voice has always had this quality. They do use vocoder at times for effect, so maybe that is happening in this song. Good luck with Tix. Tried to get Red Rocks and they sold out in less than 10 minutes. Heard the price is a bit high, but whatever. Just FYI, there is a song "Euclid" that ends the album, and it has a lot more meaning if you have listened to the rest of their discography first, but either way the album is a masterpiece. Can't wait.

[@TWMonty]

I think there's a bit of Vocoder work in this song, it's more prominent in others. 'Take me back to Eden'' also has some lyrical call-backs to an earlier song on the album.

[@ashlenamusic]

I got a ticket!

[@jasonnielsen9683]

@@ashlenamusic nice. Have a great time!

[@goldenruletv7301]

I could spend months breaking down Sleep Token music or Angelina Jordan brilliance. The two artists worth every dime and more IMHO.

[@DRock70]

Exactly! It disturbs me to no end The person[s] that leaked Sleep Tokens identity info. Are just jealous scums. If it’s Not illegal, leave them alone What if the same thing happened to them.?!

[@ashlenamusic]

Exactly

[@ripeorangesound]

The songwriter/singer/dude that plays everything but drums has given one (1) interview. with metal hammer. Your genre question is answered there

[@bryanjenkins8830]

Worship

[@DRock70]

Btw with all due respect Could you please insert link of album of the day I didn’t quite understand the name of it. Thx 🙏

[@ashlenamusic]

Invent animate - heavener I should add the vinyl of the day to the descriptions 🥰

[@sourpanda08]

Melanie Martinez was in The Voice before she made cry baby by doing a cover of toxic by Britney Spears but she didn't win🙄 but I still recommend watching it😁

[@ashlenamusic]

Haha I’ve seen that performance along with some of the others she did on the voice

[@Adgig]

Which camera you use for video shoot? Please reply

[@ashlenamusic]

My iPhone 13 no joke.

[@hitman9198]

Ive known Vessels and II's identity for years now. Its amazing how many knew even before the last leak. Whatever you do dont ever say their identities ever in a video. The gate keepers will literally have a heart attack. To me that by far the worst part of being a fan of Sleep Token. Its almost embarrassing. Vessel and II's names are literally everywhere now but their identities are still being gate keeped. Its a pitty because Vessels previous band is actually pretty good

[@dmann05]

It's not gate keeping to respect their wishes. Why is it so hard for some people to just not say something? A lot of us have read their names and don't fucking care who they are. Why is that hard to understand?

[@hitman9198]

@dmann05 lol their wishes lol. Their names are everywhere in their music. Talk about an outdated statement. I'm sorry but I will never accept that as an excuse nowadays. So I guess agree to disagree

[@Hoganply]

@@hitman9198 I appreciate that some fans appear to go a bit hard, for me too, but for anyone to consciously ruin the mystique built intentionally around an artform is by no means 'based', as that implies there's anything to gain other than vandalistic pride.

[@dmann05]

​@@hitman9198 I don't know what it is with certain people, when they hear a band is anonymous they seem to consider that a personal challenge to their ability search the internet and find their real names. No one is impressed by your ability to work search engines or watch old videos from previous bands Vessel or other members were part of. I am sure it was very exciting to you the first time you found out what their real names were and you couldn't wait to run to the KZbin comments to let everyone know how very smart you are, but most of us don't give a shit. We know the information is out there and available, but the band prefers to be anonymous and it hurts nothing to go along with that. The only other motivation I can imagine for outing them is to get clout online or to intentionally try to ruin it for their actual fans, both of which are totally fucking useless wastes of everyones' time. Touch grass.

[@hitman9198]

@dmann05 huh. I literally watched a KZbin reactor just type Sleep Token in Google. There names were right there. She read off vessels. Albeit here first time ever listening to sleep token. You could of swore she killed everyone's dog by the way everyone acted after that. You can act all dumb and confused on this subject. That's your right. But don't sit here and lie to me to sound more special. I discovered Vessels name because I discovered his old band from KZbin recommending it too me. I swore it sounded like him. And what do you know it was the same guy. Go figure. You definitely aren't as smart as you think you're

[@roywall8169]

This is a band I just do not get. 🤷‍♂️

[@TWMonty]

I'm curious what isn't quite connecting with you? (Not a challenge on your opinion). I'd heard the odd song and thought it was okay, wasn't until I gave each album a full listen and sat in the soundscape they like to create that it started to dig it's claws in me and hit me with small surprises all over the place.

[@hitman9198]

I'm curious? What exactly is there to get? Great musicians making music that sounds good.

[@roywall8169]

@@TWMonty I have never understood the rap rock phenomenon. Their songs I have heard are very much pop songs, tinged with some guitar on the periphery. I have never been a fan of bands with a heavy gimmick either (a preference which I discovered in the 70s with KISS). There is music out there for everyone of different tastes, which is wonderful and correct. This is just a band that doesn't connect with me. Perhaps the masks and cloaks are too much for me to get past, but so far neither the compositions or lyrics have done it for me. I have talked with some fans who are totally engrossed with the anonymity angle, and I always walk away smiling and a bit baffled by it. There is no denying they are finding wide appeal, much like Ghost.

[@justinatest9456]

Gutless. Empty. Sounds like it was written and performed by AI. Utterly forgettable. They sound more bored with it than I am. Which is a feat.

[@Hoganply]

​@@justinatest9456 Wow, tell me how you really feel. In all seriousness, Token stir shit up in me that needs to be exorcized, more effectively than most, so I don't know what that says about your comment. I'm sorry your experience was lacking.
