Vessel once said in an interview that "Life is dark. Life is bright. Life is ugly. Life is beautiful. Don’t get lost in genres, they’ll only disorientate you. Music is for everyone." and I think they encapsulate that belief in this song completely.
Nick Coffeen where is this interview?
@@kendrickfoo7403 www.loudersound.com/features/who-and-what-the-hell-are-sleep-token
that was the most pretentious interview I've ever read.
@@smokejc I totally agree. Idk why he was acting so weird.
edit: i disagree with this old comment now, it makes sense why he would want to stay in character
@@iDoqz just staying in character. think kayfab in wrestling.
When I saw Sleep Token live recently I was up front and center. During the last breakdown Vessel jumped up on the barrier and screamed right in my ear. 10/10
is it weird that i envy you😅😅
Awesome
Yes
Hearing damage is 10/10?
@@ShitYourself7 yes
"'Cause I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet" is a fun and creative way to say "we're both on different wavelengths".
It's also a great way to say he looks for blood while she looks for the evidence, presumably to hide it.
Scarlet and ultraviolet are opposites, symbolizing their opposing perspectives and philosophies. Scarlet represents the visible, while ultraviolet, which is invisible to the naked eye, signifies the unattainable or the seemingly impossible. This contrast highlights the stark differences in their viewpoints and aspirations.
@@harrypap2345 this! and also Sleep looks for blood, sacrifice and pain (scarlet), while Vessel looks for emotion, the magic, the aspects of love invisible to the naked eye (ultraviolet)
Violent impulse vs something on a higher frequency, like purpose
She's looking for some kind of meaning, but he's looking for all the ways she's gonna try to cut him
@@jakubgodlewski9104 I think it's more specifically that Sleep disappears in the daylight, so Vessel looks for ultraviolet as an escape from the violence and abuse of the relationship
Jeez that was a mental breakdown not a metal breakdown, 10/10
BAHAHA
This band truly knows the meaning of "less is more"
Tell that to the drummers poor cymbals!
very yes
Amen
Patrick Baitman best comment ever haha
Spot on assessment
The fact that this song goes from A Perfect Circle to DOOM... Amazing.
I hadn't thought about it like that, but damn you're right.
Truly
Totally thought it sounded like Maynard produced this.
it's called thall, not doom
This comment made my brain trip over itself for a few seconds because of the APC song ‘The Doomed’
I ADORE the line
"i look for scarlet, and you look for ultra-violet"
the way i interpret is that it's commenting on the way he and his partner look at issues in within their relationship. "I look for scarlet" he looks blood spilled, the most immediate surface level issues. (which is an issue in its own right) "and you look for ultra-violet" and they look for issues that are invisible or non-existent, to a possible scrutinous degree.
Absurdly good song.
🙌🙌WORSHIP🙌🙌
A more creative way of saying we are not on the same wavelength lenght
It hits me hard knowing I'm living this shitty relationship
You say you won't begin again
Capitulate and let me in
'Cause I am a fire and you are dry as bone
You are taking your time
You are killing me slow
And I know we instigate
Go back and forth
Lacerate
'Cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
'Cause I look for scarlet
And you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending
We just can't resist the violence
And you need a melody, I only need the silence
But each time we battle
The blood and the fury takes us a little higher
With all that you believe you still refuse to shelter me
Because I am a danger and you're a long way from home
You are one among many but you're now on your own
And I hate the way you look at me when I am not understood
'Cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
'Cause I look for scarlet
And you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending
We just can't resist the violence
And you need a melody, I only need the silence
But each time we battle
The blood and the fury takes us a little higher
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
"And you need a melody... I only need the sileeeeeeeuheeeuheuhhence"
That one... hurts so good. Yes, that's exactly what happened
The breakdown at the end just knocked us into outer space.
Look who popped up in the comments! Hello past WATE. This is present Caustic Waves. I am very late to the party...
We are the end?
Dude me fucking too man, it knocked me through the floor
Came for the breakdown, stayed for the 2nd chorus.
This song has so much to love
So you too
A metal head since the late 80s. This is a gift to music period. Too much nuance and feels to make it in a short post. Very thankful Sleep Token scratches an itch I didn't know I had.
same. i am an almost 43 year old metalhead, songwriter and musician that has been waiting many, many years for this band to come out. this is the greatest blend of genres i have ever heard. many have attempted, some were alright, even good. most sucked. sleep token instantly became my favorite band and i have never been able to answer that when asked who my favorite band is.
i can now.
@@the_real_max_levelI've just discovered them, 53 years old and in love with this music!
Just discovered them about 8 months ago. Instantly obsessed and about to turn 50. You described it perfectly by saying that ST scratches an itch you didn't know you had!❤
Jesus Christ...that's not a breakdown...that's a meltdown!
What a song! Beautiful! ❤
The breakdown in high water makes this look weak
I'm 46 years old and I absolutely love this! Never let it be said that you're too old to keep discovering good new music. Truly great emotional music has no boundries when it comes to age, in the same way that it's always good for a band to infuse different genres in their sound. Looking forward to hearing much more from this fantastic band! I'm aware they aren't a brand new band, but compared to a lot of the older music I have loved for decades, then they are fairly recent. Always happy to hear a good newer band that crushes the myth that all new music is crap, that that I've heard and read a lot of music fans from my age group and above tend to say. Excellent stuff!
46 isn't even old. Maybe because I'm 35 now but even when I was in my 20s i didnt' think 40s were old. I consider old like 80 and above lol.
Fuck yes Steve! This band really is something else!
46 is indeed not even old. I wish you have at least 46 years more to continue discovering great emotional music, just like you said.
I am 42 and also like it alot 🤘 and to be honest, just discovered this band
Ok boomer
The thing with this breakdown is that doesn't make you headbang it makes the hair on your back stand up because you're blown away by the sheer intensity of it.
That exactly what I felt listen to that breakdown 🔥🤘🏼🖤 got chills 4:27 was not expecting that 🔥🤘🏼
Pure anger and frustration with hint of desperation in the scream: the dEBT That I OwE
1:29 Mmm those drums though ... tight, crisp, and an awesome pattern. Love it.
I think this was one of the first Sleep Token songs I heard, and when the drums started up my first thought was “is that Abe Cunningham on the kit??” 😂
2:46-4:15 just has some sort of feel I can’t explain. At a loss for words. Worship
I have no idea why but I picture of someone walking with blood dripping from the sword at their side… Maybe I just watch too much anime
You are so right about that! The layers hit so many layers in your ears & emotions. It’s masterful.
Was a bit skeptical on this one until Sleep Token literally dropped the filthiest breakdown of their career
Def one you gotta listen to more than once, huh c:
it’s def up there with calcutta for me
Top filthiest breakdowns:
1. Higher
2. Thread The Needle
3. The Offering
4. Nazareth
5. When The Bough Breaks
But that's just my interpretation of 'filthy'
I feel like i need to take a shower after listening to that part
caesar the ape agreed.
This poor guy has been SO FUCKED OVER...in some way...I relate...ALL his lyrics in this band's music is incomparable to any from any other band...fucking amazing...KILLER....
Or just a master story teller.
@@monicalaux8153 agreed
Yeah, he's not fucked over, he's just fucking around lmao
His vocals and those drums!!! Hypnotic
4:14 Me at the end of every month 😂
4:49 me when the $475 car payment is due
Pure poetry enveloped in sonic power. Borderline spiritual.
4:30- Absolute Filth. 4:53- Absolute neck breaking Filth.
every moment is a moment of WORSHIP, bröther
It's pretty filthy. But not absolutely. *sythesizers* step yo game up
So filthy I need gloves
The end got PHAT.
Seriously tho, I just discovered this band a few hours ago, and I’m so obsessed. In a way, it’s like being shoved under water and then finding bliss in the deep blue encapsulating you. There’s so much emotion happening in each track and the music reflects the lyrics or vise versa. Each note is as powerful as each lyric from Vessel’s mouth. I’m truly astonished at how touching this music is. I can’t even say the right things right now, I just have so many thoughts, I can’t put them all into words. This is a gold mine, thank you to this band.
the way I absolutely LOVE how you described the feeling of listening to them...
This is me..I just discovered this and it's my second song listening.
Worship 🖤
Sleep Token has tastefully mastered what music, to me, is supposed to do and that is to make you actually feel. The subject matter is so relatable to any human going through the suffering of heartbreak. Vessels vulnerability in the way he sings is always evident and truly gives the feeling that he is in the trenches of suffering with us. I cannot wait for the next chapter and what is in store from this life changing group of musicians. So many of us are so thankful for what you do and what you have given us.
The breakdown on the end just made my jaw drop and freeze!
WORSHIP
pretty wild breakdown but not as nearly as insane as The Offerings Breakdown.
@@mentaltelepathy24 Honestly, all their breakdowns are beastly!
legit, i lost my mind
@@amrascrotwitchtv9275 that is truth.
I wish people would stop saying that worship shit. Just enjoy the music, don't turn it into this whole weird, embarassing thing.
Vessel bringing the screams into the formula on this one!
This entire song gives me fucking chills
For the first half of the song I wasn’t sure that I was gonna like this one as much as the other ones ,now I think it’s the best one.
Back then I thought the same, also with Bloodsport. Fortunately, I've come to see the terrible mistake I made
So I was INSTANTLY obsessed with Bloodsport…it was the first ST song I had ever experienced. I had skipped this song because I didnt give it a chance. I let it play through and same-it’s now my absolute favorite second to Bloodsport. I could listen to on repeat.
I just stumbled upon this band and I would say that it exposes the vastness and hostility of the universe. All the emotions all at once.
Each release my mates and me listen together and every time we're not disappointed, amazing once again.
I envy your friendships
Couldn't find lyrics in the comments so here:
You say you won't begin again
Capitulate and let me in
'Cause I am a fire and you are dry as bone
You are taking your time
You are killing me slow
And I know we instigate
Go back and forth, lacerate
'Cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
'Cause I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending, we just can't resist the violence
And you need a melody, I only need the silence
But each time we battle, the blood and the fury takes us a little higher
With all that you believe you still refuse to shelter me
'Cause I am a danger and you're a long way from home
You are one among many but you're now on your own
And I hate the way you look at me when I am not understood
'Cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
You won't begin again
'Cause I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending, we just can't resist the violence
And you need a melody, I only need the silence
But each time we battle, the blood and the fury takes us a little higher
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
The debt that I owe
Thank you!
That breakdown at the end might just be the heaviest thing I've heard in my life.
This literally changes my brain chemistry while I am listening to it. Maybe even permanently. This is otherworldly
I'm late to the party but holy shit...I can't get over how great Sleep Token is. It's a whole experience..a.vibe if you will. Very unique and hard to describe but just incredible. The chords...the heavy guitars mixed with angelic singing..and the whole structure to the songs. Chills for days.
It is dope, as the kids say.
For you and the currently new ones, never is too late to discover Sleep Token.
I am currently being crushed by a slow breakup. This song is therapy on another level. Thank you so much.
We all praise the lyrics, the dynamics, the vocals, and the breakdowns.
But how utterly bewildering is the riff from 01:30-02:03?
It is one of those little quirks of Sleep Token that it just gets better every listen.
Drummer is an absolute unit
Is it just me or does everyone go into a trance when listening to this song?
Guitarist: How much djent do you want at the end of the song?
Vessel: Yes.
Vessel writes the djent
Double drop E levels
@@fromthesky1050 And records it. IV and III are session musicians for live shows
@@MetalHead2008 u already know vessel is a fan of the thall
@@fromthesky1050 Oh yeah
2:48 omfg was not expecting that 🤘🏼🔥🔥 They are sooo Fvcking AMAZING 🥹🤘🏼🔥🖤
Beautiful! Cant wait for the US tour.
Worship!
Same I'm calling out for work if its on a day I'm working.
Oh im making sure i head to work early to split early 😆
Driving from Vegas to AZ for it. I missed loathe the first time they were in the US and I’m definitely not going to miss Sleep Token.
@@andrewmorin05 thats a must. If they don't to where I live I will travel just to see them. And I never do that for bands.
I refuse to believe that only 565,000 people are fans of Sleep Token. I wouldn’t be surprised if we heard some Grammy nods for them here soon!!
I have listened to this song, about 15 times between yesterday and today. At first, it was too much information for my brain, but now, after have digested it, I can say that is one of the most powerful and complex songs I've ever heard. Thanks for this! I'm in love with this song and forever I'll be
Its so good.
Too much information for your brain but you have a flaming eye as your image which tells me you listen to Tool, and this song is too complex for you ? Hmm idk man
Katatonia/VOLA/Sleep Token ... This is the ultimate tour. Please make it happen.
Christophe Jergales yes I would love to see that!
All of this. Yes.
I decided to look up Katatonia because of this comment. They really are amazing!
totally down for this!!!
I literally dropped my jaw. You named 3 of my favorite bands. You said katatonia, and I said who are you and what did you do to my soul just now haha. Honestly my favorite Swedish band of all time.
I am super late to this party, but thank goodness I found it! This band is incredible, in the literal sense! I almost can't believe how amazing they are. Versatile, balanced, beautiful...just WOW!
Me too but glad i made it here.
The chorus is just too god damn beautiful!
I'm glad I'm still alive to hear this
💜
The drummer reminds me so much of Abe of Deftones
Even right down to the sound of the snare!
It's the flares and ghost notes! Defo sounds like Abe
Had a crack at lyrics: (can't get one of the chorus words)
You say you won't begin again
Capitulate and let me in
Cause I am a fire and you are dry as bone
you are taking your time you are killing me slow
and i know, we instigate
go back and forth lacerate
cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
Cause I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending we just can't resist the violence
And you be the melody, I only need the silence
but each time we battle the blood and the fury takes us a little higher
When all that you believe you still refuse to shelter me
Cause I am a danger, and you're a long way from home
You are one among many but you're now on your own
And I hate the way you look at me when I am not understood
Cause you can remember only when you're alone
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe
Begin again
Cause I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet
And we are exhausted by all this pretending we just can't resist the violence
And you be the melody, I only need the silence
but each time we battle the blood and the fury takes us a little higher
The debt that I owe
Hmm the missing lyric sound like (scarlett) and also the phrase with amenity kinda sounds "you need the melody I only need the silence"
@@PINESTKINGPIN yep. they make way more sense haha
Thank you...thank you...
Was looking for this video 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Discovered this band not so long ago!!!🖤
Higher, The offering The apparition, Rain so different from each other but truly unique in the composition ❤ love them
This music has a lot more to it than music, if that makes sense. Love it ♥️
Ooof that outro reminds of "Masamune" by Periphery, or maybe "Dispossession" by Northlane. It's some absolutely filthy shit and I love it.
I'm new to Sleep Token so I was almost surprised, since a lot of the songs I heard first were soft, like "The Way That You Were" and the "Hey Ya" cover. If I hadn't heard the heavier parts of "Jaws" or "The Offering" first I never would have seen it coming.
The guitar in the first half is giving me some callbacks to Russian Circles or something, it sounds eerily familiar.
Adam McCann you literally spoke my fucking mind going through the comments. I was thinking it sounded like the outro breakdown to Masamune and during that thought I read your comment. Great minds and great taste in music 👏🏽
Also get strong tool/apc vibes around the 1:41 mark.
spot on with the masamune comparison.
Giacomo Fiderio yeah I’ll throw sound awake era Karnivool into that mix as well
Huuuge Masamune vibes for sure at the end there.
after a few days of jamming out to this song I can safely say this is their most insanely song written thus far with one of my fav breakdowns.
EDIT: I can't stop listening to this.
I'd love to see this visualizer in a 360 degree video for VR. That'd be so sick.
So. I have t found a band I became obsessed with since I was 16 and I’m 30 now. The things these guys are doing is amazing
This is an underrated band, and I've never felt any other band was worth mentioning as such
So glad to have discovered this song and the experience it gives me every single time I play it. Unbelievable vibe.
Seldom is a breakdown so well deserved
The Drummer must have attended the Matt Halpern School of Drumming
Associated with the Matt Halpern School of Weird Drumming Faces
He do be playing the "if any of my cymbals stop moving I die" game tho
Just found these guys and yeah..... he's nuts
"I am granting you more, than the debt that I owe"
Ah vessel your lyrics are bliss.
Worship
This is amazing. I would have never checked this out if I didn’t watch a Music Shed reaction video reacting to a Spiritbox video (The Mara Effect live playthrough).
Glad you like it! Highly recommend Gods and the Offering if you want more metal!
Never clicked so fast can't wait to see y'all on the beautiful Oblivion tour
Probably my favourite Sleep Token song so far (though The Summoning and Atlantic are close favourites too)
This specific song is giving me a badass "Detftones/TOOL" vibe.
A Perfect Circle*
@@sludgeon *Puscifer
Definitely more APC than tool, but I got you ;)
The lyrics are the epitome 2 the break down at the end ... BUNG !!! 💯🎯💫💥🔵
Can we get a...
Dance Gavin Dance
Dayseeker
Thornhill
Sleep Token, tour someday please and thank you :))
Can. I get any kind of tour at all? Quarantine is depressing the shit out of me
I was lucky enough to catch Issues with Sleep Token, and Polyphia before everything got crazy. One of the best nights of my life
I'd much rather see Deftones, Spiritbox and Sleep Token
I truly hope DGD will invite Sleep Token to the next Swanfest. They fit their universe so much despite being so distinctive from everything on swancore scene. Just another great band to the crew
Add The plot in you, Eidola, Whale Bones, Low roar, and Thousand below to the line up then we got a great freaking show
Vessel, your voice is such a blessing. So many songs give me peace, a message, a view, things i dont get time to realize in life. Thank you.
That's some fun whimsical drumming once shit kicks in
Beautiful yet again. Those drums in the verse. I forgot to breathe during that drop! I feel like there's gonna be full on screaming by the end of this album
God please!
I have felt the unclean vocals since Pantera started a fire with Cowboys from Hell ... this takes me places uncleans dont ... I think the emotional cleans are perfect
@@7star7storm7 huh? This makes no sense. Elaborate pls?
Oh 😂 I have liked scream/unclean vocals for long time . When I heard Pantera album Cowboys from hell back in high school Phil Anselmo was singing in a way id never heard...I loved it. So fast forward 25 years... I love unclean vocals in my music... This song in my opinion is getting the scream/unclean vibe with the guitar and I dont feel like vocal screaming would enhance that vibe ... the clean vocals are part of an excellent use of light/shade for the overall feeling - I love this song and this band really impresses me 😊 Does that make sense
@@7star7storm7 Honestly brother, it made sense the first time. I dunno what he's on about. I agree with you that if there was more screaming from Vessel, it would almost take away from how hard the guitar hits, and the pure emotion that his vocals bring.
I love how every frame in this video would make a great album cover...
Kanye; “I’m only doing worship music now.”
Sleep Token; lmao u too late bruh
This might be my favorite Sleep Token related comment
They’re revolutionizing this industry. Absolutely in love with this band.
Can't believe I'm so late to this party....this fucking band is unbelievable
Yes Vessel! Killing it with those screams, I need more, We need more. This track is mesmerizing! WORSHIP.
So cringy “worship”
@@samsepoil2111 it's just the bands "thing" they have a narrative and people buy into it, it's a good gimmick if you ask me
ENDLESS LOVE. THANK YOU SLEEP TOKEN.
Seeing them live is beyond any show I’ve ever been to. WORSHIP
This album is absolutely incredible. Such beauty.
Finds my soul everytime 🔥🔥🔥🌠
Think these are the lyrics, feel free to add any corrections/suggestions. Also that ending is filthy :^)
Lyrics;
You say you won't begin again,
Capitulate and let me in.
Cause I am a fire and you are dry as bone,
You are taking your time,
You are killing me slow.
And I know we instigate,
Go back and forth,
Lacerate.
Cause you can remember only when you're alone,
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe.
Cause I look for scarlet,
And you look for ultraviolet.
And we are exhausted by all this pretending,
We just can't resist the violence.
And you need a melody I only need the silence.
But each time we battle,
The blood and the fury takes us a little higher.
With all that you believe you still refuse to shelter me,
Because I am a danger and you're a long way from home.
You are one among many but you're now on your own,
And I hate the way you look at me when I am not understood .
Cause you can remember only when you're alone,
I am granting you more than the debt that I owe.
You won't begin again ( x4 )
Cause I look for scarlet,
And you look for ultraviolet.
And we are exhausted by all this pretending,
We just can't resist the violence.
And you need a melody I only need the silence.
But each time we battle,
The blood and the fury takes us a little higher.
The debt that I owe ( x7 )

Ah yes, my favourite genre
VIOLENCE
This song give me chills. This whole album is a masterpiece! Sleep Token could bring world peace as we unite to praise their glorious hymns.
Back for the millionth time. I love you guys so much!! From Kentucky...with love
Just when I wasn't expecting metal they got me again
Another stunning release from one of the hottest upcoming bands in the UK!
This is my favorite!
I love everything, every seconds of this song.
This is some night-time cruising perfection. It evokes different emotions from the intro and the chorus -then that outro drops. Damn.
I haven't enjoyed a song this much in a very long time
The tent that I own.
Sleep token are a new band for me but I am fully involved now. Mad talented!
First time listen in Philly last night. So impressive that I bought a shirt.
Gratitude to everyone involved.
I'm not sure I can keep myself emotionally composed when listening to Sleep Token because that puddle of teary moisture next to you would be me. ST is unstoppably perfect!
best song on the album
Blood sport
@@RoswellContinuum blood sport's chorus isn't as good as this song's chorus imo. both are great tho
Every. Song. Is. Gold.
As I'm going through a divorce, these words mean something visceral to me.
The sound of that bass during the breakdown is fuckin incredible!
2 million views and I can claim half of em. Bet!! Love from Kentucky (again) yall.
❤️🖤🖤🖤❤️
Im mesmerised.
God you guys are such legends. Worship
I can't be the only one getting Deftones vibes from this. Too good!!
I see it. Some of the instrumentals remind of their more mellow songs like Digital Bath.
@@jbasti227 i was thinking "Graphic Nature"
Also, A Perfect Circle!
