THIS IS WICKED!! | ALKALINE | SLEEP TOKEN

[@dvnc00]

Fun fact, it's track number 7 on TPWBYT, and on the pH scale, 7 is the exact point where something is neither acid nor alkaline. In terms of the 3 album trilogy, this track is again right in the middle, possibly indicating a shift at that point

[@bradengoldsberry]

Yo that is dope af. I never realized that

[@Sidsahoy]

thats so cool

[@Mumpinator]

wtf, that‘s genius.

[@KatLadyFL]

whaaaaaat!! amazing

[@leooarriagada4588]

Another fun fact, right in the moment that vessel says "let's talk about chemistry" Eric take a drink on his Erlenmeyer beer (I think that's how it's called that thing) hahaha

[@tj3603]

"Please, don't be over" is a definition of pretty much every ST song 😅

[@disturbedpyro4511]

“I’m caught up in her design, and how it connects to mine!” That line hits so hard!

[@klaudia._.g]

Vessel must be really into chemistry! Alkaline, Aqua Regia, Granite... I love it as well but never thought about combining it with music to get sick af lyrics with deep meaning... but this is what Sleep Token is about, right? Surprises over surprises. These guys are truly unbelievable!

[@nikibailey819]

I'm over here thinking music theory was his major and he had a minor in chemistry.

[@Mortimer-1311]

Google the etymology of Alkaline... Tis sweet knowings

[@ROPeachy97]

I could talk for hours about how clever vessel is but this song is the prime example. She's not acid nor alkaline, meaning she is on the centre of the ph scale, which is the number 7, this is the 7th track on the album. Ph centre is also water, which is mentioned so often, holy water, Atlantic, aqua regia etc. Not quite either day or night She's perfectly misaligned I'm caught up in her design And how it connects to mine I see in a different light The objects of my desire Each line of this has 7 syllables!

[@Jecklen16]

"OOOOooo Let's talk about chemistry"... chills... every time

[@conluki4454]

Been loving the Sleep Token reactions! Next from them y'all HAVE to check out Blood Sport - from the room below.

[@davidriddick82]

No, they need to do the original first. The room below is a special piano only, and though yes it is EPIC, you must learn the original to appreciate that masterpiece

[@conluki4454]

@@davidriddick82 Very valid point, would love to see reactions to them both!

[@dropthehammer1360]

⁠​⁠@@davidriddick82 I agree. I’ve been requesting the room below version for a while now, but you’re correct in saying that they should listen to the original version first.

[@elieshas2040]

Agreed! So much raw emotion in his vocals on that version!

[@Syhrzev]

They could do the double reaction😏

[@Kelly30stm]

She's perfectly misaligned is one of my favorite lyrics ever. ❤

[@M00nDanCR]

Mine too, that line is why this song is one of my favourites

[@adzrael]

It gets me every time 🫠🫠

[@jasonray4620]

Same here! ST has taken over as my new favorite band. So glad there are people who appreciate them as I do

[@miinaa01]

Mine as well! I actually got “perfectly misaligned” tattooed, with the words not neatly next each other - so that they’re perfectly misaligned :)

[@lunarwolfnight2547]

The synchronized "Oh, shit!" @ 5:54 has got me rolling! 💀🖤 worship

[@SleepywitchVibes]

Worship. Lyric video is very resident evil, to me

[@vbheretic]

Got married back in June and I had the musician learn this song to play at the reception. Obviously it wasn’t Vessel, but it was amazing to hear the song in that setting.

[@FUBARnation13]

I still can’t get over the fact that the way that he composed these lyrics and his choice of words are so extraordinary. Not acid nor alkaline. The fact that everything in this world has a form of acidic scale and that she is neither on either spectrum. And I really wanted to give a huge shout out to the guy that composed the video. Simply for the fact that the songs name is alkaline and he’s talking about chemical composure, and the people that are currently storming the mansion are actually wearing real chemical protective suits that I have used in my biological chemical work when dealing with acid and caustics. The entire sleep token crew are just pure geniuses.

[@prodigalmarine5772]

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the song that introduced me to Sleep Token!

[@Sle3ping.Wor5h1p.8]

Same! I say it on a YT Short and was like, ''mmm, I like his voice who are they'' then the rest is history.

[@K1NGD0M]

"Are those branches?" LIKE BRANCHES IN A FLOOD OMFG

[@DanCobbs73]

This is the first Sleep Token song I heard and after that I fell down the rabbit hole, I’m still down there and never climbing out. If you want to see more Vessel then there are three more videos that you need to check out , ‘The Love You Want’ which is from the same album as Alkaline so that mask, ‘The Way That You Were’ which is an early single so a younger Vessel with one of his first masks and ‘Bloodsport(from the room below)’ which is just Vessel and a piano. Absolutely check out the albums Sundowning and This Place Will Become Your Tomb but don’t forget the two Eps ‘One’ and ‘Two’ and another single which has got a video ‘Jaws’ which is my favourite along with Ascensionism. Worship

[@parapraxiaa]

Vessel is in Fall For Me too... just a little differently. Took a minute for me to make the connection.

[@DanCobbs73]

@@parapraxiaa Yes he is and that’s the most you see of his face without a mask along with the video for Calcutta

[@davidriddick82]

Now it’s time for Sundowning!! I can’t wait for you guys to do everything with sleep token. You’re going to have moments of magic, you’re going to have moments that you’re minds will be blown and you will have moments of tears and crying too. Put your seatbelt on fellas because it’s time #WORSHIP

[@cefhamster]

Full album reaction please

[@Rii0s]

The connection of " caught up in her design and how it connects to mine" if you rewatch the Vore music video the statue is a venus fly trap/women. Just a fun fact

[@facelift5628]

alkaline and aqua regia go together really well. i love the elemental aspects of them.

[@michaelmilne5282]

I just saw them live Friday in Detroit. Absolutely mind blowing how good they are live. They also have four interludes pre-recorded that are conversations between Sleep and Vessel that provide deeper insight into his mind.

[@matthewsolomon8269]

Alkaline was the first Sleep Token song I ever heard, and I was completely hooked. Still ranks up there with my favorite songs they've ever done. There's actually a drum playthrough video of Alkaline as well, highly recommend if you want to see a world class drummer at work

[@cdprato]

The "whoa" out of Kyle at the hand-thing is the EXACT same reaction I had. Blood Sport - from the room below. An absolute must. Love you guys. Keep it up.

[@mokkestarrr]

I’ve listened to this song so many times but this is the first time I noticed he said “I see in a different light” and in the beginning of take me back to eden he said “I dream in phosphorescent.” Don’t know if the two are related but damn do they put a lot of work into their lyricism.

[@sarahpelosi4213]

Please don't forget about the EPs ONE and TWO! They are phenomenal... Their earlier work is so damn good! 🤘😊

[@Kelly30stm]

Yes! One and two are amazing!

[@DAKxNypthyus]

Fields of Elation and Nazareth are 2 of my favorite songs off One and Two

[@CHVSE77]

Thread the needle!!

[@Nathdood]

dont even get me started on "the way that you were' I'LL CRY RIGHT NOW

[@ariumet]

Nazareth and Jericho need reactions from these guys omg

[@darkslayer1391]

I am GENUINELY excited for you guys to take the Sleep Token journey. I hope you all enjoy the rabbit hole as much as I did the first time around.

[@Tonedefz]

One of their best! I'm excited to watch you go through their back catalogue!

[@anitageee]

There’s no band like sleep token , they’re so unique. Worship ❤ Another great reaction from you guys . 🖤

[@nocouponsforkaren8587]

Eric drinking a potion 💀 i see the chemistry references were an inspiration

[@rimamalkavian]

I smile every time from the way the drinking glass changes every video. Like your reviews, it's incredibly genuine, thank you. :)

[@courtneyrose6046]

Love this song!!! ❤ so glad y’all enjoyed!

[@SimonaDrvek]

Loved your reaction! You guys are always truly genuine & I appreciate that you also comment on the lyrics, which not many reaction channels do. 🙏 II (the drummer) also has a drum playthrough of Alkaline so you might want to check it out too!

[@de5troythebrain]

Found this song about 6 months before chokehold came out and was OBSESSED with this song and the love that you want. this is when they still only had less then like 30k subs its freaking wild and beautiful how much these guys have grown.

[@brianparker6579]

This is the song that for me started on the Sleep Token journey. So glad you did this one🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@valerietemple7052]

YES! The lyrics are so good!

[@kyllianharper2064]

Can’t wait for y’all to go back to Sundowning! Their first 2 EP’s are also worth checking out with some notable references on Take Me Back To Eden. Especially songs like ‘When The Bough Breaks’. Keep up the great content🎉

[@urfvsuthrngal318]

Yes this! Honestly I'd start with the EPs first for sure there's so many little hidden things

[@AsAbove.SoBelow]

When the Bough Breaks is rough on the heart, for sure. That’ll get the tears flowing on a down day. Good suggestion.

[@JewelsLeigh]

And Jaws, all by itself!

[@TSenter82]

This is the very first song from Sleep Token I ever heard and it was right before y'all started reacting to them, I saw this video over on Alex Hefner's channel and instantly fell in love with Sleep Token. Great reaction as always fellas, CHEERS!!!

[@Spaceycasey1414]

Love all the sleep token reaction videos you guys are doing and can't wait for you to do more of their older songs. Definitely my favorite band.

[@jamesmaybury5925]

Just got off a 12 hour shift and on my drive home, I saw you guys did this song. It totally made my day! Absolutely love this song but I hate so much that it’s so short!

[@demolitiondolly2010]

This is the reason I follow/subscribed- watching you guys discover everything Sleep Token just gives life. Worship 💜

[@Lauren__M]

Sundowning is my second favorite album! Can’t wait!

[@karlsimmering460]

I’m excited for you guys! You are right, It is just great music!

Went and saw Sleep Token Last night in Dallas! They are a great band live and in studio

[@inviz88]

The Offering is my favourite Sleep Token song. Looking forward for you guys to react to it!

[@zoealexa1029]

This is my favorite Sleep Token song, so glad you guys reacted to it!!

[@Steph20155]

Been so excited for you to do this song and video!! Love how it all connects 😮 So good ❤❤

[@bad.tokenn]

My favouriteeee thing about the live performance of Alkaline is the ad lib Vessel does at 5:38 on 'design' he extends the note as the drums fade then when IV comes back in with the riff he kind of does this growl thing and it makes me FERAL. Highly recommend going to watch it 10/10!

[@CMFoodFun]

You guys should watch the drum playtrough of this song. An offering from II - Alkaline drum playtrough, it is completly astonishing.

[@rockertothecore]

The 1st song from Sleep Token I ever heard! Been obsessed ever since! Love the series brothers! Keep up the great work!

[@Edd25164605]

The song that made me a fan!. Can we all take a moment to appreciate the Skills of the Bands Drummer!

[@Nathdood]

This was my first Sleep Token song, followed by Hypnosis, then I just fell into the rabbit hole. 2 years later and they're literally my all time favorite band. They changed my life.

[@arielleprucha]

ahh one of my ALL TIME favorite songs! so glad you guys enjoyed it! PLEASE check out Blood Sport - from the room below and their cover of Hey Ya!

[@MichaelWilliams-ko6lq]

can’t wait for your guys reaction to sugar, jaws, descending and higher. 4 of my favourite songs atm! loving the reactions ❤️

[@danacramer418]

Just saw them in Detroit! this song live is killer! by far the best concert to date! Must see!

[@jh1896]

“Please don’t be over” Literally me on every ST song. 😂

[@disturbiafromthebay]

This was the first sleep token song I had ever heard, still one of my favorites

[@YouDontOwnCats-TheyOwnYou]

A couple days late to this one, but I absolutely loved all your Sleep Token reactions so far, so happy to see you guys getting into the older songs as well! I'll have to re-watch this one because I didn't know who to focus on. 😂 Alkaline is one of my favorite Sleep Token songs, so I'm gonna go back and focus on one of you guys at a time. Thanks for all the awesome reaction videos! Worship 💙 Additional note: I love Eric's "and remember" at the end of each video, always cracks me up. You guys are hands down my favorite reaction channel! (Here for all Electric Callboy and Falling In Reverse reactions too!)

[@EdansHuman96]

I love alkaline, this is the song that got me into sleep token. Can’t wait for y’all to hit up blood sport from the room below. So emotional

[@Hannah_Rose99]

The way in which I actually screamed when I saw you reacted to this

[@kymgilbert8513]

I'm seriously obsessed w/ this band!!!

[@rebeccad4098]

“The Love You Want” is probably my favorite video of all time.

[@Web-Cam813]

FINALLY! I’ve been waiting for y’all’s reaction to this. This is one of my tops.

[@Maxifema94]

I think you will love a lot of songs from that album, Hypnosis it's an amazing song that shows how good II is, Atlantic, Distraction, or Jaws, or other songs from sundowning, Levitate, Gods, The offering, even the covers that they do are amazing, Hey Ya, Is It Really You?, Halleluja

[@gerardomorales4078]

Just saw them last night in Dallas! Epic show! I had to get in the pit for this one. 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@jeanproctor3663]

This is such a bloody good video isn't it? As soon as I watched it, it went straight into my Favourite Videos bank.

[@flawedlife5013]

Yall Brothers are fantastic. Can't believe we get another album reaction!

Great reaction guys! I have been waiting for you to do this one. You always make me smile😀

[@hopehinson]

Also, you guys have made all my favorite reactions to them. I love yall

[@LoneHerald]

Fuck yeah! I've been waiting for you guys specifically to react to this song. This has so far been my favorite sleep token song, and you guys are my top favorite reaction channel, right above kardavox academy and the charismatic voice. So happy about this

[@snakereses]

I learned of them last year on their tour in the US. And on the way home from the concert and the whole following week, it was nothing but Sleep Token.

[@jaimie5309]

OMG I've been waiting for this.yayyyyy

[@jaimie5309]

One of my faves for sure and video is perfect with the song

[@IndecisiveConclusion]

This was the first track I heard by them and is still my fave by them.

[@urfvsuthrngal318]

So excited 🖤🙌 worship!

[@jaycarr5906]

I can't wait for you to do bloodsport and The Love you want. They are both two of my favorites from the older albums.

[@TeeBagGee]

I can't wait to see your reaction to the love you want video. That song/video is very important to the lore of vessels relationship with sleep and the continuous "circle" he finds himself emotionally. It's a beautifully done video. The whole "circle back to the beginning" thing they did with euclid makes more sense after you see that video.

[@c_mac5972]

This was the first song I heard from them. Got me IMMEDIATELY hooked 😭

[@rachelshirlaw6421]

This is the most romantic song to exist in my opinion. He’s saying she is perfectly imperfect and he loved her because of that. And as someone who is a bit chaotic and crazy and far from perfect, this song hits hard

[@akaLumenn]

3:58 Eric saying everything but nothing at the same time LOL love the reaction!

[@josh5132]

So glad you guys are going back to their other stuff! And you are my favourite reaction channel now!

[@dropthehammer1360]

Woooo! You guys finally did it!

[@tommyswife05]
