[@calebprescott9822]

I'm sure some people have talked about it, but the way vessel is able to deliver the same lyrics in different ways is crazy.

[@solomonkane1712]

He’ll repeat a line & instead of it sounding unimaginative it just works.

[@MotoHikes]

@@KhaosKontroller Definitely some Periphery influence with repeating passages and themes throughout songs. It's so perfect.

[@OzLovell]

This song might be the epitome of sleep token. Huge chorus, crushing breakdown, vessels perfect vocals. When someone asks what are sleep token this is the song to show them Worship.

[@karlissulcs3822]

If someone's listening to mainstream trash, I'd show them something shorter as the Tiktok generation has the attention span of a wet towel with ADHD. However, WORSHIP.

[@OzLovell]

​@@karlissulcs3822 I get what you mean, maybe something more like descending in that instance

[@Metalsaurusb]

Couldn’t agree more Oz!💯

[@yearnpill]

@@karlissulcs3822 there is plenty of good music that has gone mainstream, you just don’t look hard enough

[@karlissulcs3822]

@@yearnpill Please, pay attention that I specifically said mainstream *trash*. I'm not talking about good mainstream songs.

[@MadailinBurnhope]

I break down into tears during the "I guess it goes to show, does it not?" section, every time

[@thecruff94]

Same. Every time.

[@rivagesfm5018]

This particular section means already so much to me it’s insane. Always tearful

[@zombiebrokill6605]

Why

[@malevolentmisfit]

Damn straight. Those lyrics cut deep.

[@joeselva9229]

The chokehold call back at the end of this song is masterful

[@stephenwoodrum2735]

All the callbacks and easter eggs make this even more of a masterpiece. This and the final track, Euclid really feel like they are closing a chapter of Sleep Token lore.

[@PrapalyFree]

I was thinking the same thing. From sundowning as their beginning and This place will be your tomb being their introduction to who they are, this album is a perfect ending to their first trilogy of them as a band.

[@iiismyfav]

I think TMBTE is really the last song on the album which is why there’s a fade out. I look at Euclid as the epilogue to the whole story.

[@Jalanko13]

That’s also why I think that for a band that’s already genre bending, their next album will be a completely different genre. I feel like this is almost like a hopping off point for everyone that’s followed since Sundowning.

[@sebluke1]

this is the end of a trilogy, no idea where its gonna go from here

[@monkvsiron]

“Room feels like a meat freezer I dangle in like cold cuts” Now that I’ve heard the song so many times, this lyrics being in our scene makes me laugh so hard. God damn they nailed this album.

[@earthscorcher]

He hit us with that fucking line, and we ate it right up 😂 worship

[@JailinAriel]

I love it too 😂 I laughed a lot at it too tbh. But I’ve seen a lot of people hating on this line, but it really paints a morbid perspective of how he feels. The imagery of just a guy being so worn out and tired. If you’ve ever seen a slaughterhouse, man. To embody that as a human? That’s heavy weight. And I’ve been to the point of exhaustion where I have the chills and I’m cold and only 12+ hours of sleep will fix it. Homie is hurting my soul with these bars 😭😭

[@sevenjets]

@@JailinAriel Yes. The exhaustion, frustration, hopelessness, constant chills, stomach cramps, feeling sick, can't think straight, insomnia ... but even 12+ hours of sleep cannot fix that. Couldn't even laugh at the meat freezer, this line hit another bullseye for me. The lyrics go straight to your soul and force you to face your own past. Again. And again.

[@JailinAriel]

@@sevenjets couldn’t have said it better myself. 🥺

[@daltonevans3412]

​@@JailinAriel that line literally broke me when i first heard it. I have several chronic illnesses that leave me in constant brutal pain, i am constantly really anemic (low red blood cells) and require bi weekly blood transfusions, i take 14, yes, 14, medications every day just to feel at a point where i don't want to blow my brains out, i sleep maybe 3 or 4 hours a night at best because of the pain and feeling frozen but sweating at the same time, i puke at least 3 times a day minimum, basically i am not alive, i'm just surviving, and with little hope of any meaning recovery, this is my life until something finally takes me out. I am being sincere that the only, singular reason i have not killed my self yet is because it would destroy my mother and my fiance, so i have to endure. I've said it before that it's only my meat suit that's still here, my soul left a long time ago. So that line really hit. Sorry for unloading.

[@revingtonn]

This track is just absolutely perfect in every way, I'll never get over how good Vessel's voice is.

[@user-wl2md5kz7k]

I’ve never listened to this band until they just recently released this album and I’m so impressed

[@PrapalyFree]

Welcome to this band Worship 🙏🏾

[@sintaxera]

Every song is a banger. Even the ones you don't particularly like at first will implant themselves in your brain and play on repeat until you can't get enough of them

[@jpgunny101]

Welcome and i HIGHLY recommend you check out their other stuff! #Worship

[@Botc_8686]

Same for me , they are amazing! Pure quality

[@brian_7934]

"And i dont know whats got its teeth in me but im about to bite back in anger" been feeling that a LOT lately.

[@soossees4140]

That song really does feel like Eden

[@G59MaggotKTM]

I'm a diehard Maggot, and I was soooo happy to see Corey Taylor essentially say Sleep Token reminds him of early Slipknot With that said Take Me Back To Eden this entire album is without a shadow of a doubt the best album that came out in 2023 I'll fight tooth and nail to the bitter end

[@moodmusic4life]

Don't see the sonic parallel between early slipknot and sleep token but I'll just agree anyway

[@onestepfromhell_2440]

that chunk of lyrics starts with "I spit blood when I wake up..." really hits hard

[@calebboik909]

My favorite aspect of the song is how each time the chorus comes it’s different instrumentation. It’s starts with a soft piano, into more hip hop, then just the full band coming in. It’s honest just 👌

[@de5troythebrain]

That breakdown holy hell... SOOO freaking hard dude. i really feel like the screaming of "take me back to Eden" felt freaking real. it was Coconuts.

[@JustGerryNow]

I love editing birb so much. He's so real 😂 The lyrics "I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre" make me SO FERAL so I appreciate the person in ur chat pointing those out so much And coconuts!!!

[@austinchomolok2749]

Its electric how he brings back the chokehold line of “it was no accident”

[@Rinny_Rin_Rin]

This has quickly become my favorite track on the album. It’s so BEAUTIFUL and then so HEAVY at the end. Vessel and II are an unstoppable force in the studio. 🤯

[@TheHappyCatsTail]

"the perfect song doesn't exi-" for real this is straight up amazing. and also i've heard this song about a million times and yet i keep realizing theres a different callback every time. i think there is ATLEAST 5 callbacks to previous songs in this one, probably more. also..... COCONUTS ;)

[@muataska9614]

Gotta respect the drummer heavy. That dude murders that set every time he plays📌 not easy to make instrumentals that can support such a strong voice/lyrics.

[@thistimeitswar]

This is not only one of my favorite Sleep Token songs, but this may be up there in best tracks. Period. What an unbelievable ride.

[@zhesion7036]

Can't wait either!

[@onestepfromhell_2440]

that song made me so emotional

[@TheFaTheR85]

Let's be honest, this song is the Bohemian Rhapsody of our generation.

[@JakobStrand]

The soundscape, the production, the passion, the lyrics, the atmosphere, the flow, the unpredictability, the musicianship. Sleep Token masters it all and never ceases to impress. This is a pure masterpiece.

[@claytonmitchell5685]

Coconuts :) I think this track earns its length, having 3 acts with 3 distinct sounds that all resolve in the same chorus is brilliant, made even more brilliant by how good that chorus is. And then to finish with that punishment? *chef’s kiss*

[@SleepTokenLuke]

The track is mindblowing! I couldn't be more proud of the guys 🙏

[@kcjones_ddd]

This is the first song I heard from Sleep Token. I have been stuck on them for DAAAAYS!!! I love these guys.

[@Trespasser249]

the drumming on this album is so insane. some of the best in a long time.

[@kristianbrannan9961]

I guess it goes to show does it not? That we’ve no idea what we’ve got until we lose it ),:

[@unofficialoscarherrera]

I have not been more hyped for an album in my life yet completely overwhelmed by it. This is the White Pony for ST, and I can't wait for what's next... Does Eden have coconuts though?... Great reaction, MB. Looking forward to the Euclid reaction. Bummed I missed the stream.

[@JailinAriel]

COCONUTS… also, I feel like another pro should be the atmospheric experience achieved with this one. They did it a little bit with Rain and a lot of songs on TPWBYT. I was so scared we’d loose that with the debut tracks. The best way to experience this is in a dark, quiet room while laying on your back with your eyes closed. You literally feel like you’re IN the song. Just no words. So beautiful. I’ve listened to this song literally a hundred times at least and I still get chills.

[@kinglarry3727]

the mixing / mastering is superb

[@thxrnmusic]

Coconuts! Love this song so much man, glad you bumped the rating above a 9!

[@VVVEndZeiT]

The one thing I do know about this album is that I absolutely love it, and while there's plenty of months to go, it gets album of the year for me, even the past few years, it's been a long while since a band has gripped me like Sleep Token have, and after listening to the entire "trilogy" now, I appreciate this final album even more. Great review/reaction/vids

[@tirabee]

Coconuts! This track is definitely 10/10 for me. This and Ascensionism are my absolute favorites from the album. Was waiting to see your reaction and it didn't disappoint!

[@Justsomegamergamingandstuff]

This is literally my favorite song right now just in general. It's just so beautiful in every single way

[@liamblack4840]

I don’t have the words. This album is incredible.

[@PlaceHolder994]

I NEED to see your reaction to euclid. That song made people cry lmao.

[@nocturnal_03]

there's been 3 key changes in the song and they're all amazing

[@nathan-leary08]

Coconuts, the apparition, take me back to Eden and ascensionism are just incredible and the entire album ties together so well. AOTY

[@edelwiess2306]

Coconuts! I absolutely adore this one! I think it’s my all time favourite. I’ve been waiting for them to do something that was like a modern day equivalent to Bohemian Rhapsody and I think this is it! So much of an anthem, the switching, the song evolving over time and we had advanced warning that he was about to bite back in anger and did he ever! II’s drumming though - wow! The chorus was so beautiful in all ways, but the last time felt so full! The added bits of Chokehold towards the end made it feel like the album finale, leaving room for the ending of the trilogy. Absolutely perfect in my opinion.

[@Kalebsweeten]

Best song on the album imo. Incredible record overall.

[@briancs96]

I just got into the Sleep Token hype train last month and been watching several reactions. I like the way you give us a full review and you hear the song in full instead of pausing it. Excellent content dude!!! 😁

[@cosborne06]

Amazing song. One of the rare bands I’m glad Facebook recommended to me. Glad I could listen to all w you guys!

[@jaketuschak1508]

I smashed the subscribe button, you make great content and you’re an awesome human. This song is incredible, it hit all the right spots and seems almost tailor made for my tastes, looks like many others feel the same way

[@Sulsalogan]

Yesss I’ve been waiting for your reaction on this one! With so many fantastic songs on this album, this is still my favorite. Fantastic in literally every way! Oh yeah, coconuts btw!

[@TSenter82]

Fantastic reaction man, I bought this album right after it came out and I've listened to it at least a dozen times already and I am going through all of the reactions that I can find on youtube at the moment.

[@ninja3687]

Tons of references in this song and Euclid. The melody towards the end before the breakdown is a slowed down version of the melody from the Offering.

[@amaaranichol1701]

Watching this brought me so much joy because you made all the same faces I did and I ADORE this song.

[@amaaranichol1701]

Oh, coconuts

[@nejuhyuga]

Coconuts Birb! Man, this song might be song of the year for me. I get chills between each transition in this track. Vessels vocals really elevate this track to another level, and the production at the end was beautiful. Also, those drums in the breakdown....🤘

[@glyoung99]

Such a cool medley (not to be confused with melody) using bits from the previous albums throughout.

[@kevinmalcom4243]

Just subscribed. You seem like such a genuine guy, and I enjoyed the reaction.

[@ernestorodriguez5117]

Fk coconuts! I get lil mad when you rank this song under a 9.5, but I understand and respect you enough to know your tastes. In the first listen this was directly one of the best songs of the album for me, but after a whole day listening to it again and again I come to realize that is my favorite song of all from Sleep Token. Is the perfect definition of who they are. I hope they keep doing music in the future, no matter if is not this good (wich I doubt, cause they are one of a kind). I discover them thanks to you almost a year ago, and they have become in my favorite band of all times. So I'm eternally thankful to you too, Birb. Keep spicing our lifes!

[@lisamccoy6514]

You're so natural don't stress it's even more fun that you admit you are trippin on so many people watching. This is why you're 💯 I've loved every review of this LP. This song doesn't feel so long when listening it, like the rest of the songs leaves you wanting more. Beautiful song great reaction 💖✌️🎵💥

[@adurnaheflin9209]

Coconuts!!! Love ya man, I see you on TikTok all the time. I'm glad I finally made it over

[@danielc3321]

I'm very much enjoying how this song and Euclid reference songs from the previous two albums. I'm so curious to know how they're all connected. But maybe it's more fun to leave it a mystery.

[@JohnnyRychous]

Fantastic song and album 🔥💪. I remember when you mentioned in your podcast with Rachelle about this year being your year. I knew it man lol I’m so happy for you in the numbers and subs close to 100K. As I said before I’ve been following since Blood Eagle and I couldn’t be more hyped for you. Major congrats my guy 👊

[@METALBIRB]

Dude thank you, this year has been crazy haha but I appreciate the continuous support

[@Pandumz-]

I just really love all the callbacks they put to previous songs in this and euclid just the full circle moment is great to me 10/10 album ❤

[@kellielion3288]

Coconuts!!! ❤ I always watch your whole videos. It's always a party!

[@hans.lankamp]

Remember to give II his flowers on this one, really made the dynamics HIT

[@PrapalyFree]

This album was unbelievable. I loved TPWBYT but there were a few songs that didn’t hit but this album dude, every song ,even while repetitive, still feels unique and sounds amazing. It’s reminds me of Nothing more “spirits” album in which I could listen to the whole track without pause and sometimes forget what song I’m on cause it flows so damn good. WORSHIP!!!!

[@twall91]

People are sooo damn weird about fadeouts… bro, it’s not that big of a deal lol. It’s literally never once bothered me to the extent that I’ve seen it bother people on these things. I don’t get it lol

[@FrzN]

This is easily the best song from them for me, every single thing in it sat perfectly with my ears. Reminds me of Periphery's Masamune with the breakdown at the end, just the sudden intense key change into something so dark and brutal. The chorus shifting from very ethereal in the first section, then into a hip hop kind of style in the middle blows my mind with how good it sounds, and I love the first breakdown with the guitar riffs where you can hear the note changes into a darker tone right at the end, but stops before it goes anywhere, like a hint of what's to come at the end of the song. It's like the musical version of a Chekhov's gun - it's there for a reason and it'll come back at some point. I've listened to it way too many times to count at this point and there's just so many little things they do. Incredible band. Cool reaction and review!

[@sese1177]

Coconuts and definitely subscribing 😁 Love your channel!

[@ironklaw]

This song sitting as the second-last song on the album lets it serve as such a great climax to the album as a whole (and makes the reprise of Chokehold - the first song on the album - so much more satisfying in context). The next track, Euclid, feels like a nice denouement afterwards; a satisfying cool-down to follow the prog marathon that preceded it.

[@zorbzys1457]

This and asensionism are both fire.

[@ElysiumTails]

And rain. All 10/10

[@theessentialgamer9290]

The opening always makes me cry i cant help it

[@itscarlos5754]

The one screaming is IV (the guitarist) who also screams the last part in the summoning and can be seeing and heard during live performances

[@drumkidstu]

So IV and III are actually live members. IV screams live so that Vessel can focus on singing. Though I’m fairly certain that Vessel also does certain screams live. In studio Vessel is credited with Coproduction along with Carl Brown. He also did all vocals, all guitars, all bass, and all piano. II does all drums. Vessel and II wrote all music other than DYWTYLM which was strictly written by Vessel.

[@jamesschultz8260]

Correct. Only Vessel & II record all the music on the album. III & IV only play live.

[@kennytieshisshoes]

Aww you are so sweet being pumped with over 500 views. This album has something for everyone.

[@kennytieshisshoes]

And just to clarify I think you should have more viewers on twitch. ❤

[@deztaylor5151]

Coconuts!! Loved it Birb ❤❤❤

[@denielf.7169]

This whole album is coconuts. Glad to have been there during your live viewing. Between this one elucid, granite and the summoning I can't decide which is my favorite 😂😂

[@Meow-Meow501]

When I finally sat and listened to the entire album in one sitting, it made me think of the experience of listening to the album Dark side of the Moon by Pink Floyd, but metal. I adore this Album. It’s so cohesive.

[@atomictoaster8013]

yeah this is my favourite sleep token song since when the bough breaks. it’s just amazing, start to finish. god damn sexy vessel bringing about the apocalypse like that.

[@WardenOfSouls]

Coconuts :D and yeah its a fantastic song. Im so in Love with the first heavy section. That Riff gets me i cant really explain but im a drummer myself and II is for sure one of my favorite drummers and a huge inspiration

[@_TRISH23_]

COCONUTS!!! loved the song & your reaction!

[@danielturvey8253]

I wish I could go back and listen to this album for the first again

[@bmxfreak1991]

Coconuts 🥥🥥🥥 fucking love this so much, best song ive heard from these guys so far 🤘

[@rodox97]

It feels like my very own future-self somehow managed to get back in time, impersonate as Vessel1 and write this whole thing down about my whole present-self situation. This song breaks me hard ever since the first glances at it, and I thought that would be nearly impossible to have something else overthroning The Summoning, and well well here we are. Coconuts, btw, and thank u Birb

[@bradleyhampton1915]

Coconuts! Awesome reaction man!

[@SuperAizen777]

[@laurenwhittington1243]

So brave of you to listen to this for the first time on a live stream. I had to lay in a dark room under a blanket so I could consume this album. Stunning Album

[@AnnaH-qt9nl]

As my self-proclaimed KZbin metal boyfriend, you’re doing that white t-shirt a favor, darling. Well done 👌🏻 in all seriousness, I appreciate the work you’re putting into this channel and turning people on to some of the best music I’ve personally heard in years. Keep it up!

[@jonnieinthe256]

Sleep Token making breakdown fade outs great again!🤘🏻

[@darksentinal2514]

I think sleep token have found there thing and it's doing what ever the fuck they want and it works so well

[@midoxbz]

what a MASTERPIECE SONG my top 1 in this year so far

[@andreimarasigan]

Can't wait for your reaction to Euclid and get butterflies together at how awesome that callback was. Until then, this for me is an easter egg song for that. Eden = beginning = callback to the first song off their first album

[@calebevans3690]

The amount of references you can find in this and Euclid are staggering. Im not talking about the obvious ones, there are some that are so incredibly subtle. The piano break is a reference to aqua regias piano solo. The intro of Euclid sounds like a major key rework of bloodsport etc.

[@ricjobl]

Man this band is the future of metal... The mix of different styles..

[@SmyD87_]

This entire album is a masterpiece but I am so caught up on this song. I'm pretty sure I've jammed it at least 40 times since Friday. Hands down one the best songs I have ever heard in my life!!

[@Grasses0n]

Does anyone else hear similarities to Drewsif Stalin's Musical Endeavors? They have a similar vocal style, although Drewsif is much heavier in general. I wish he'd make more music. I suppose Sleep Token filled that void in that regard.

[@luanteixeira8723]

The beauty to this album is that each song is and feels lika a story. The whole album becomes a journey.

[@chrisnanite7076]

Patiently waiting on the Euclid reaction

[@kyunasan]

I'm so happy that this song takes these lyrics from Chokehold, since it's my favorite song so far (and a bit underrated imo because of The Summoning).. but now I'm not sure anymore which one is my fav lol this is already the AOTY, every songs is a masterpiece

[@iiismyfav]

Coconuts! How did you not comment on the Chokehold callback? Surprised you let that one go!

[@user-wl2md5kz7k]

Coconuts! Great reaction my friend

[@fkuchta145]

The end of this reminds me of Masamune by Periphery

[@sordi92]

Gotta see your reaction to the epic conclusion that is Euclid.

[@jordanbenson2980]

Now Sleep Token have properly blown up, can we start putting more respect on Fightstar's name who are CLEARLY a big inspiration.
