surprising soundtrack for an OP bossfight | First time Reaction/Analysis to SLEEP TOKEN "Alkaline"

[@paulroberts4667]

Boy, you've found a giant rabbit hole to descend! Bloodsport (from the room below) is a stunning piano driven ballad, that really shows his emotional vocal chops!!

[@blackv00d00]

Yes, we definitely need an analysis of Blood Sport, specifically the From the Room Below live take!

[@jen.g.]

Agreed! That performance is SO raw and painful.

[@jiggygtr]

🙏🏻

[@danielortegam]

I’m glad someone said this!

[@TexAirUh07]

came here to say just this. It rivals Corey Taylor’s Snuff acoustic performance as one of the greatest emotional vocal showings of all time.

[@jvoxfox]

Thanks so much for your patience everyone! I hope you enjoyed the video :)

[@bbig438]

thank you for not giving up on us and disappearing into the Ether! We know you live a busy life so, Welcome Back :)

[@kevinwalsh691]

Where have been? I hope everything is ok

[@capstan50g]

Welcome back, Julia! We've missed you terribly. We're just no good at it. :D

[@gaboelexo]

This is why i love your channel, you go out of the confort zone and look or good music, good stuff

[@leonc100]

OMG welcome back. We missed you! ❤️

[@nathanmellott2262]

Sleep Token is incredible. If you want more of them I would suggest Atlantic and Hypnosis to listen to next!!

[@RenThraysk]

And the demon pig squealer (Will Ramos) covered Hypnosis too... it's a fun watch as well.

[@nathanmellott2262]

@@RenThraysk Will's cover is really great, I was actually really surprised by his clean singing ability. There is just something about Vessel's voice that is almost ethereal, and I feel like it would be super hard to replicate

[@RenThraysk]

@@nathanmellott2262 Yeah, just mentioned it because imagine some people will be curious as to what it'd sound like.

[@theopinson3851]

Or Blood Sport!

[@Andrew_-nr7zt]

Or The offering and Higher

[@frederikfeyen3436]

Insane band can't define their genre tbh they have a genre of their own, The offering is a perfect song to get it all from them

[@joejacklin3831]

They don't do genres. When people ask me what genre they are, I tell them to listen to "Jaws," "Atlantic," "The Love You Want," "The Offering," and "Higher" and then come back and tell me what genre they think they are.

[@flynnedwards]

@@joejacklin3831 For that reason, I would probably say the lean into prog, simply because they are so diverse. However, calling them prog limits them into a certain aesthetic that I don't think represents what they are as a band

[@ChaseCarneson]

You're one of the best to every do it. Glad to have you back doing the damn thing. Especially happy to see Sleep Token. Definitely one of my favourite finds on the channel and you've now given me even more reason to love them.

[@Badzad31]

Eyyyy, cool to see you here! Shouldve expected you'd show up on her ST vid. Hope you're well! Oh, and Worship.

[@ayejimbae8068]

“What genre do they belong to” Oh honey, get ready for a very deep dive. Worship. 🖤

[@reneeholiday]

soooooo many layers to build. and deconstruct.

[@heroblaze2]

As for their genre… You perfectly nailed it! They are undefinable. This song really let their drummer shine, you can see this clearly in II’s drum play through on their channel which I loved because he is amazing. The band is based around members that no one knows who they are (to let us focus solely on the music) and they worship the deity Sleep and their songs all revolve around this in same way. This band is a rabbit hole and they just get better and better the more you listen to them.

[@lessthanzero2680]

I've been suggesting Sleep Token to you for a year lol. Glad you finally came around!

[@Sylinn]

I saw them in Brisbane a few months ago, It was mesmerising. Also yes their drummer is absolutely unreal!

[@Tessa167]

You're back! Admire your nerdiness and your passion. Thanks! learned a lot especially when you added a diagram of vocal tract like that:) Stay safe

[@jamesy1979]

You were like Kirsten Dunst in Interview With A Vampire “I want more”

[@UmbraLyrel]

I recommend "High Water", from the same band ^^ I discovered them with that song first, and it was like travelling to another PLANET. It made me fall in love with them.

[@The_Horse-leafs_Cabbage]

I love how dynamic his voice is, from those rich lows to some falsetto highs in other songs. The instruments are no joke either... Ranging from atmospheric electronics to chugging, abyssal downtuned guitars--and the drummer is the king.

[@UnXplainable1]

There is SO much more. Alkaline was my introduction to this band, too, and it left me with that same feeling of needing more, but you’ve heard just a sliver of this band’s abilities and Vessel’s vocal range. Take your pick: High Water, The Offering, Atlantic, Hypnosis, Calcutta, Blood Sport, Nazareth, Sugar, Give, Higher, Telomeres, Descending - heck, their whole catalog is a clinic in vocal range and god-tier drumming. Worship.

[@LeviathanSenpai]

I have just found you and I'm so gutted you haven't done anymore Sleep Token songs, its such a big rabbit hole!

[@teion.]

I've been deeply in love with Vessel's vocal timbre for years now and it's a wonderfully fresh breath of air hearing an expert breakdown on the nuances of his voice.

[@FlyingJustToFall]

In my opinion - Among the top 100 songs of all time. EVERYTHING about this song hits hard.

[@deseer1564]

Can I just say how enjoyable it is to watch you react through your expressions when you're really digging an element or full composition. I'll never not enjoy watching your reactions as someone that's truly invested in a craft.

[@joejacklin3831]

Julia!! I'm so glad you're back. And that you're returning with a reaction to my very favorite band. Sleep Token isn't just a band. They are a life altering experience. The emotional heights and depths they bring their followers to is something that cannot be described with words They are a British-based collective of musicians who expertly blend elements of rock, metal, hip hop, blues, gospel and ambient sounds in a way that a lot of us have been waiting for...for a very long time. Vessel, vocalist and creative force behind the group, is truly remarkable. He's the cloaked, masked individual in the chair (the overpowered boss fight, as you referred to him lol). He appears in most of their videos (notably, not in the video for "Fall For Me," and we only see his old mask in the "Jaws" video). He's part Jeff Buckley, part Chris Cornell and part Dan Smith. He writes everything except the drums and all of the artistic elements are his brainchild. You'll find most of the lyrics and songs are about heartache, unrequited love, etc. Vessel's muse is his previous partner from the project he was in before forming Sleep Token. Most of the video concepts he has come up with thus far seem to depict moments and imagery of life, death and rebirth, and the struggle to maintain one's being and soul. The character of Vessel, shown to have some variation of telekinesis/resistance to harm in this video, is shown in the video for "The Love You Want" to be vulnerable to a mortal wound from "the object of my desire" mentioned in this song, only to be reborn during that video's conclusion. So, take all of that for what you will lol. II is a generational talent on drums. He plays with an unmatched combination of passion, ferocity, accuracy and groove. He's the true superstar of this band. They have released several of his solo playthroughs that are worth a watch simply because they showcase his mindblowing ability (for "Hypnosis," "Alkaline," and "Mine"). They perform in cloaks and masks, and thus far, have been able to keep to a minimum the number of people who know their true identities. Their stage show is phenomenal, with heavy investment in lights, pyro, smoke, and an accompanying three-piece female choir. As fas as I know, Vessel and II are the only full time members of the band, and the guitarist and bassist are touring musicians similar to the unnamed ghouls in Ghost. However, I have heard rumors that one or both of them may now both be official members. Like most things, the group keeps that kind of thing pretty close to the chest. Sleep Token's best work includes the songs "Atlantic," "Hypnosis," "Jaws," "The Offering," "Higher," "Blood Sport," "The Love You Want," "Sugar," "Mine," "High Water," "Fall For Me," and "The Night Does Not Belong to God," although they don't have a bad song. Because only a handful of their songs have official videos, I would recommend "Jaws," "Blood Sport," and "The Love You Want" as additional choices to do reactions to. "Atlantic," "Hypnosis," "The Offering," and "Higher" are all breathtaking works, but only have Visualizer style videos. I implore you to keep listening to Vessel sing. You're in for an experience. Welcome to Sleep Token :) We've been waiting for you. If you or anyone else have any questions about them, I'm happy to answer. :) I think you'll find I'm a particularly good source when it comes to this group.

[@GernickKuik]

Great to see you again, wonderful that it's a Sleep Token track! My first intro was The Love You Want but if you want to know more about Vessel's voice, definitely check out Blood Sport (from The Room Below), it's just him on a piano

[@martyneastty9546]

What I love about Sleep Token is the messages told within each song. Each song has its own genre. The album sundowning is very much a introduction to the band and the variety of styles they can deliver. The mystery behind vessel (vocalist) gives the band this darker feel. I find the band is well delivered and well thought out. My fav band around at the moment. So glad you experienced the awaking of Sleep Token. Two songs I would consider listening to off the first album is sugar and dark signs.

[@DigitalMechanic2]

I just found your channel and I really like your reactions and analysis. That's why I'm also confused as to why you haven't reviewed more Sleep Token. Throughout my life I've seen Pink Floyd, Dio, Rush, Journey, U2 and countless other great bands live... in the last 30 years I never wanted to see any band live more than Sleep Token. I got my wish on May 20, 2024 in Philadelphia - they were beyond amazing. I watched you dissect Spiritbox's "Ultraviolet" (another band I can't wait to see live) and you talked about layering and subtleties; things that Sleep Token also uses in ingenious ways. Please, if you even read comments on your older posts: review more Sleep Token!: Bloodsport (from the room below - not the studio version), Ascenionism, Telomeres, Higher... or just close your eyes and point at any song on any of their albums or singles... NOTE: The earliest recording (Thread the Needle) demonstrates what Vessel used to sound like, over the 7 years since then his vocals have become more articulate and nuanced. While I like Alkaline, I'd say there are more elaborate displays of his vocal prowess... I understand about "wanting more"; that's typical Sleep Token, although "Euclid" is an almost Journey-like anthem of resolution to their trilogy of albums. It would be premature to judge Sleep Token by Alkaline alone. Hearing "Take Me Back to Eden" live was a very intense experience and I would venture to say if you listened to it you might think it was too short (even though the runtime is over 8 minutes). I defy anyone to think that song is too long after hearing it. Vessel joins so many other versatile and unique vocalists and musicians like Courtney LaPlant, Ronnie Radke and so many others. Btw: That "arachnid" prancing as a shadow in the window on Alkaline? if you look closely, it's actually the shadow of a branch-creature, not a spider... Still creepy! I look forward to more of your reviews! Great work Julia!

[@bladedth3sis]

I first heard Alkaline from another reaction channel a few months ago and I LOVE it. I've heard every song they have released now and I just want more.

[@harrycordes6518]

It's so good to see you're back; I would've loved to of seen your reactions to quite an abundance of songs that have came out since you last uploaded. Hope all is well!

[@Widetrackband]

Great review! Sleep Token is just phenomenal. Virtually every song is great. That said, you’re going to get a lot of people requesting you listen to stuff from the new album and its processor (Sundowning), but their first EP is absolutely revelatory, IMO. One of the most amazing things to ever be released in the history of things being released. Their songs, Jaws and Calcutta, are equally extraordinary. Happy rabbit hole traveling!

[@rhysnelson6077]

I love at 7:30 you’re giving so much to the music while backing away from the spider 😂 makes me giggle every time

[@Badzad31]

Glad to see you back! Awesome analysis. There's loads of folks recommending songs, but I'm going to say if you want to revisit Sleep Token, you legitimately cannot go wrong with any choice of song. Having said that, if you want something that demonstrates vocals, Blood Sport(from the room Below) is a solo piano/vocal version of one of their songs, you get a VERY clear look at his voice. Alternatively, High Water or Hypnosis.

[@yoonifieddivide348]

The return of KZbin's brightest smile! \o/ And a great song/analysis to come back with.

[@AlEbnereza]

I’m just glad you’re back. Carry on. ❤️

[@mikey13086]

I started off literally liking 1 song from the band for a few weeks. gave them another chance a few months later and it started to grow on me. now im obsessed.

[@alexcorti1002]

You're back!!!!!! So cool to see you're doing fine !! :)

[@Dingo1170]

Just found these guys and wow I am blown away over and over and over what a voice and thumping drums wow. Now a bucket list band to see I cannot get enough. Beautiful voice like Einnar from Leprous and Daniel Tompkins and Joel from Soen, it's an awesome day when you find new music. A friend said " how do you find all this music" my answer is it finds me. Love ya work keep it up xx

[@zacharyperkins4777]

So good to see you back here! You've been greatly missed. My day has been made better now!

[@Dave.M.23]

I think one of their songs that really showcases his vocals is “High Water.” I simply do not get sick of listening to it, it gives you much more of a sense of satisfaction at the end of the song compared to alkaline where its leaving you wanting more.

[@haroldcrown5541]

She is back! I have missed your videos and I’m glad to see you again!

[@Hyperblade79]

Hell yes! I have been so excited for your thoughts on this band because they are just so interesting and wonderfully complex! The love you want, Scars, Gods, Blood Sport, Altlantic are just a few songs that live rent free in my head. Hypnosis is also an amazing song AND our sweet demon child Will Ramos did a cover of this song too which I'd recommend if you want something different from Will!

[@user-hy5cm5xb4t]

I am so so glad that you finally found them lmao, i would suggest you check out Chokehold next and Bloodsport (from the room below). Sugar is another one, that doesn't get the credit it desirves, but it is every bit as amazing as everything else they do, so if you like you can hear that too. Anyway, as always, awesome reaction/analysis and i can't wait to see which one you choose next

[@bighouse1695]

I have never heard this song or band before I watched this. But I’m always willing to listen something that you’re reacting to Julia. I liked it a lot, I’m going to pull it up on Apple Music and just listen and see if it still resonates. Love your voice also Julia! I’m going to search if you have some music also. If not point me to where I can listen or do some singing videos. I’d be so excited for those. Thanks for sharing this reaction!

[@TomBeld]

The Offering, Sugar and Blood Sport are some of my favorites :).

[@iDEATH]

Wow, I was just thinking yesterday while watching some other reaction that I hadn't seen an upload from you in a while! Welcome back! I always love your analysis of things. :)

[@enriqueriveravelado6533]

Awesome reaction Julia, your insights on Vessel's vocal performance are enlightening. If you want to discover more of them I would recommend Calcutta, Jaws or any song from the room below. They're simply put, amazing artists.

[@JinofskiYaBoi]

god yes, Julia is back, and Sleep Token getting the praise they deserve

[@darkospasic1644]

It is sooo good to see you back. Great reaction as always

[@justinmurray8500]

Oh man. You're gonna love these guys. They're about the epitome of music you can FEEL. And so talented. I would recommend Bloodsport (from the room below), high water, higher, the way that you were, Atlantic, distraction, the love you want, missing limbs, jaws ugggh so many

[@DanceBisboDance]

The queen is back!

[@Abremoch]

OMG Julia you are back!!! Thank you for coming back to KZbin! Hopefully you were busy with good things in your life!

[@fenner1986]

Welcome back Julia! You're among my favorite voice coach reactors, thankfully you've returned!

[@kingstag1]

I like this reaction because you didn't talk over the music. You listened and it allowed us to listen with you. Thanks :)

[@darkjoedickie]

Check out Blood Sport (From the Room Below) for a vocal and piano only dive into Sleep Token. Alkaline was my first ST song too. There are so many great songs on their current album it's had to recommend just one. Also, don't let the culty stuff around the band steer you away. Gimmicks work better than they should...

[@pintsize6662]

This! For all the feels...

[@Itsfrawgdawg]

This needs to get pushed up to the top. Def my fav song from them.

[@kykiske4]

I've been absolutely in love with this band for like 2 years now they are my number 1 but I think you need to listen to high water that song really shows his vocal talent and range! Loved the reaction!!! 😁😁

[@fredrikmagnusson6469]

To this song i imagine a reversed "Beauty and the Beast" music video, like the Beast singing this alone is his chambers after being a monster in front of Beauty.

[@tskwerl]

Bloodsport (From the Room Below).

[@bbig438]

youre back! this makes me so happy you cant even fathom :) we missed our Julia! as for the song, its ok. ive never heard of Sleep Token before so youre introducing me to them so i cant help with your questions towards the end lmao. not the worst band but im def more into harder rock. all the same, this was satisfying to watch because well.... ITS A JULIA VIDEO WOOHOO!

[@paulroberts4667]

You should try the songs higher and the offering

[@edgarfilipe23]

hypnosis too , the dynamics in that one are so good

[@richardwilliams5825]

It’s so great to see your reactions again.I thought you’d stopped for good and that made me sad.

[@marcbauder1002]

Welcome back Julia missed you I love your reactions/analysis and your honesty keep up the great work and I hope everything is going great for you hope to see you soon.

[@johnjohn37371]

So nice to see you...I was late to Sleep Token, but having dived in, you now need to watch them live... completely different experience...

[@kevinbrown3082]

Vessel, the name the singer goes by, has an incredible range. This does not show him at his best. Although for this particular song, it’s spot on. His falsetto, head voice is a wonder.

[@KozakuraRabbit]

Sugar is a song where he’s almost entirely in falsetto and he makes it work well.

[@stephaniehoeve9681]

First time hearing this Especially the drums did the magic here Good to see you back julia!

[@Mass-produced]

Great band. Been waiting for you to react to them.

[@flynnedwards]

Hell yeah! I love Sleep Token! To introduce some different recommendations than what have already been suggested: Higher, Sugar, Like That, The Offering are all really good vocally

[@deamonsead]

love this reaction!! thank you so much for giving your thoughts!! i know i'm not the first person to say, but i still hope you'll check out more of them some day. personally i would love to see you react to either blood sport from the room below, or their cover of hallelujah! there's only like one good video of their hallelujah cover because they never recorded an official version, but it's absolutely gorgeous. thank you so much again for this reaction and analysis! i love watching people react to sleep token for the first time 🥰

[@mlmosok]

Welcome back, we missed you 😁 I would love to see you react & analyse Spiritbox - constance Its a great song and very different from other songs they do

[@DarrellW_UK]

Whoa, what a come back - that was wild! Must look at some more of what they’re doing! Good reaction as usual, plenty of nerdyness so all is good! Don’t forget some more Warning, there’s plenty to look at!

[@benoitlarin220]

I cannot thank you enough for writting your thoughts instead of stopping the muzik every 15 seconds ❤❤❤ TY I will subscribe just because you did that (and I appreciate your comments of course) 😊

[@lorimiller8297]

Welcome back! Missed you and your analysis. Missed your sense of humor as well. 👏🤘❤️🔥

[@BoG_City]

I love this song! They also released a drum playthrough (Offering) of the song recently and without a singer it is still an amazing song! Even after listening to that version, you will still have the itch to get more tho. Also, welcome back Julia :D

[@goldenruletv7301]

I am just getting into Sleep Token. Impressive band.

[@grahambullman]

Welcome to the Sleep Token rabbit hole. Alkaline not the best for a first reaction IMO. As mentioned by others Atlantis and Hypnosis are great, and The offering which first pulled me into them. Fall for me is also unique. The drummer also has a couple of playthroughs on youtube for your interest, but maybe not for reactions as no vocals.

[@missbramley8663]

I think the best song for his vocals is Thier new one, aqua regia, his tone is just stunning, but also Sugar and Jaws for me got me hooked. I'm a singer and most of my music preference is based on the vocals, and ST are by far...very far the best...and he sounds exactly the same live as well, such a fantastic vocalist.

[@brianstocks8049]

I am glad to see you!!! Hope this will be a regular thing!

[@v3n0m0usxviper2]

you would love Atlantic. The singer "Vessel" actually plays the piano and some guitar. Also the songs that are "from the room below" are really cool, theyre more of a acoustic setting and his voice shines more in those songs.

[@CacoMetal_JackandRoll]

Welcome back Julia! Hope you are doing well 😁 Good reaction as usual 😊 Sleep token are a very interesting band for me. I love their song hipnosis.

[@jaybob666]

I want nothing more right now than to see you react to their track The Summoning! Such a fantastic band and as always an awesome reaction and breakdown from you! Keep it up 😁

[@leonc100]

These guys kill it. Check out “Sugar” by Sleep Token. It’s even better. Freaking amazing.

[@flynnedwards]

Sugar is definitely one of my favourites. Good choice!

[@KozakuraRabbit]

It’s one of my favorites as well! It showcases the higher part of his range well.

[@Comicdude205]

The rabbit hole for this band is deep ..but my god it amazing

[@alexthorpe6583]

Sleep Token is almost entirely new to me, I'm just glad to see you reacting again. It's been a long 3 months.

[@Ihvann]

Wow not expected! One of my "new" favorite underground band. Thanks Julia for the reaction

[@jurgengierkink4322]

You are back! You rewarded our patience royally 🥰

[@Kristina-jf4hd]

You mentioned the drummer in this video and quite recently II was featured in a Drumeo video where he’s interviewed. It’s very interesting. Also, the newest album……Ascensionism is my favorite song. Vessels voice is quite simply captivating.

[@davidgunsberg2475]

Lovely to have you back! Hope you are well 😊

[@thatoneemoguy3252]

Bro, the summoning and the love you want have gotta 2 of my favourites sitting in up there with alkaline. The summoning due to how much of a variety that song has and the love you want, due to how beautiful the song is

[@ghostinthemachine5787]

What makes watching this video so Entertaining is the little kiddish Joy you see her have. Really infectious.

[@ryanfrazier3781]

I'd definitely recommend "The Offering", "Jaws", and "Hypnosis" as good places to start.

[@glenby2u]

a dark version of the killers? nice space, I'd love to hear part 2 (nightwish progression but in their own sound) glad you are back Julia, been missin' ya of late.

[@frankshort8183]

nice to see you uploading again. i want to say thanks if this universe is a magical one we'll meet again. don't know where but i know we will meet again some sunny day kwalas are for life not just for xmas

[@EetYajKundorp]

As much as the vocals are pretty heavily produced, “Fall For Me” is an incredible song by Sleep Token. Imogen Heap vibes 100%

[@damianstark5362]

Loved this. Welcome back. Your buddy Chase Carneson will be thrilled you did this. Sleep Token is kind of next level.Always surprising in what they do, how their songs are arranged... it's almost ritualistic. They're kind of a religious experience... or maybe anti-religious. Yet spiritual. The long and short of it is impact. They are impactful. And important.

[@wakledodd]

We missed you! Happy you are back :)

[@charlieb8735]

Compositionally, the phrase “perfectly misaligned” defines the peculiar genius of this track perfectly. This is a rhythmic masterpiece

[@agdtec]

Wow, so glad to see you back. Hope all is well with you.

[@calebhawk6868]

Should definitely do more Sleep Token. There's a surprising amount of musical influences in their stuff that ranges everywhere from synth pop to jazz surprisingly coherently, and he has a lot of really great vocals. Alkaline is honestly a pretty simple song as far as most of their stuff goes.

[@BishieBishie]

Glad I commented Sleep Token a bunch of times. My personal list of songs to try, Sugar, Bloodsport, The Offering, Hypnosis, Atlantic, Bloodsport (live piano one), Jaws. I will just stop there.

[@jared_bliss2253]

His range is actually quite crazy, if you listen to take aim you can hear the real high notes all the way down to these low ones

[@mossx5241]

Loved seeing you react to one of my all time favorite bands! :D Other folks already suggested some excellent songs from their two albums. They're absolutely incredible at building a song up and have a wonderful tonal range. I love Gods, which is on the heavy side, and The night does not belong to god, which is rather... Ethereal. For a reaction however I can definitely recommend hypnosis, like that and Bloodsport (from the room below). Also! It's definitely worth checking out their albums :D taking the time to listen to them is very rewarding

[@alexdethrose1910]

Welcome back!! It's so good to see you!! If you want more from the guys I highly recommend 'Hypnosis' and 'The Love You Want'. I also want to recommend Caleb Hyles' cover of "Hallelujah". The cover is one of the best out there in my opinion and the guest vocalists on there are also simply wonderful!!

[@infinitedreams1350]

Insert "It's been 84 years" meme. Good to have you back Julia!

[@Zambad]

Thank you for helping bring Sleep Token to your wider audience, they definitely deserve more exposure! Like many others have pointed out here, Alkaline, while an absolute banger, is definitely not the best first impression song as it's very much built around those neutral vocals Vessel rarely uses that much. I like to suggest Atlantic as a great showcase and first impression song as Vessel displays way more range in that and the song includes almost all musical styles the band likes to build around. Other suggestions would be Jaws for more of those sweet drums, The Offering for a song that pretty much created their initial larger following and Higher, one of my personal favourites. Also also there are Missing Limbs and Blood Sport, the latter even having a piano+vocals-only version ("from the room below"), for a more isolated vocal approach, which I highly recommend because Vessel's voice is very unique. The band likes to blend different styles and different songs can sometimes have very differening styles from the rest. Polarizing examples include Fall For Me (vocals and vocal effects only) and Gods (probably their heaviest song). As for the main character in the video: That's Vessel (actually Vessel I, as in one), the frontman and vocalist of the band. All the members are anonymous and dressed and masked in that similar style, with each member named Vessel X, where X is their respective number in Roman numerals. I'm late because KZbin somehow decided I don't need to get this video suggested to me even though Sleep Token has been my number one band for over a year now. I have also seen this heartbreaking trend of KZbin not showing reactions to them that much (i.e. seemingly abnormally low views in comparison) and I think it might be due to the horror and violence themes in some of their videos, like this one... Hope that doesn't discourage you! This band deserves more analysing! An extra artist suggestion: Since we're diving into unique voices with Sleep Token, I can't not mention Leprous. Their vocalist, Einar, has the most unique male voice I know and they're criminally under-represented in the KZbin space. Good first impressions include their songs Castaway Angels, Distant Bells, Below and Alleviate. Okay, this comment become waaay longer than I intented, but you've struck a musical soft spot of mine with this band.

[@marcfischer5235]

Incredible how you were immersed in it in a few seconds! Enjoy their discography! Definitly worth it! 😉

[@ItsEefs]

This is an amazing band.. if ya want.. their song Jericho is so good.. and you'd be able to hear more of his range.

[@shabado0]

So good. SO GOOD! Instant subscribe. Reaction channels or reaction portions of broader musical channels are so saturated and can take notes from everything about this video :) enjoy the very odd but fulfilling Sleep Token rabbit hole
