Down the rabbit hole.
Hy
And it’s a good one🥰
The Sleep Token rabbit hole is almost a right of passage for music reaction channels. I hope you enjoy the journey. Worship
Finally some Sleep Token. Interesting song choice for a first reaction!
That's what I thought 😂
Apart from the go to Sleep Token Songs, that's probably my personal favorite. So I'm down for it (:
This song fucking rocks.
Vessels lyrics just open you up and touch your soul. Just a 50yr old guy that’s come a long way to healing my own soul since discovering this truly incredible band.
Exactly how I feel I too am 50yrs old. 👍
51, almost 52 year old veteran rock and metalhead and you’re not wrong. This band have been a game changer for me in the past few years. Interesting song choice for first go though
They - and this song in particular - got me through lockdown. Sending love and peace x
45, I wish more people in our gen would listen to ST. They open you up and make you feel. ❤
Also in my 50's and I've been following ST since the start. No band has ever affected me in the same way. I have a ST tattoo as testament to this - the only band ink that I'll ever allow myself.
Crazy you picked Telomeres it’s such a niche song for this band. Every song is just as good as the next if not better. Please keep reacting! You won’t be disappointed
You would really love Atlantic from the same album!
TY for reacting to my fav album and Band! :)
Take me back to Eden has to be on your list!!!
WHOLE ALBUM !!
It's a masterpiece.
His British accent shows through a ton, which is why I think you got the "cursive" singing vibe.
I've never seen someone react to this Sleep Token song, in particular, let alone for a FIRST reaction... I wonder why you chose this one, out of all of them? Thankfully ST only drops bangers lol. I would highly recommend Take Me Back to Eden, Ascensionism, Euclid, Apparition, The Summoning, Atlantic, and/or Rain. However, every song is incredible. I haven't heard a single ST song that I haven't enjoyed in some way. Their variance is incredible.
Great song suggestions. I agree 100%!
I love Atlantic so much. Probably one of the more vocal-heavy tracks.
FINALLY! BTW, so excited to see them live for the 1st time this Friday!
You’re in for such a magical experience! 😊
Saw them twice in Sydney two weeks ago ❤❤❤❤ incredible
I know! I see them Monday the 6th. I cannot wait!!! 😍 #Worship
I'm seeing them Friday too 🎉
I’m checking them out Friday as well, can’t wait.
My all time favorite Sleep Token song. Saw them live in October of last year. They killed!!!!
When I found this band, I binged all three of their albums immediately and continued to listen to them nonstop for months. All their music is epic storytelling with tortured emotions and mad science experimentation with music genres.
oh, I'm happy, finally Sleep Token
Vessel's voice is very deep, you can feel the emotion in his voice, and that's one of the reasons why I really like his vocals. He has a very big range. He can hit the highest notes and go down to guttural screams (in just one song lol)
I'm looking forward to “Take me back to Eden”, it's not just a song, it's a masterpiece. Also, I recommend listening to “Blood Sport (from the room below)”, it's a very beautiful emotional song
Yup !! Agree ! Do Take me back to Eden !! He his very Magic and ethereal on this song.
Bloodsport is simple, emotional and raw.
Saw them in London last year when he was going so hard he had to skip singing the majority of a couple songs. When he cried into the mic towards the end of the set we all felt it
@thevocalyst - These sleep token albums are a whole journey. The closing song to the trilogy of albums, EUCLID, is extraordinary song writing perfection. The closure and healing all Sleep Token fans needed. It’s the realisation it’s all over. It’s okay to look back at the good times. But ultimately it’s okay to move on. It’s time to be somebody new. It’s so fucking beautiful. Loaded with callbacks from songs and moments, notably tied directly to the open song on the first album ‘the night does not belong to God’.
One worth checking out for you particularly would be the live version of ‘Bloodsport’ from the room below.
Thanks for the analysis, I'd enjoy more featuring them.
What a great song to begin with. One of their more beautiful and expressive - there's so much more awaiting you.
Worship
so excited for this
vessel does the delayed consonants a lot, it's one of the more distinctive features of his voice. high water (the song after this on the second album) is also very pretty, one of their best songs
Listening to songs with your super smile is a lovely thing for the soul.😍🙏🙏🙏
Time well-spent here🥰 I'm sure there are half a million songs on your docket AND super eager to hear more of your analysis of this band!!
Great choice! Telomeres is an awesome song! I highly recommend Atlantic next, you can clearly hear Vessel's voice, and the soft but powerful piano on that track... chef's kiss! Hope to see more Sleep Token!!
YES!!!! SLEEP TOKEN is lyrical GOLD! Enjoy the journey. *worship*
Worship!!
I subscribed for the Sleep Token reactions. Cant wait to see your upcoming reactions!!
Quite surprised that this is the song you chose for the first time listen of them. But I'm not complaining. Hope you do more. :D
The beauty of Sleep Token is the attention to detail in recording.
I hope you’re ready and willing to forego any kind of free time as you fall down the ST rabbit Warren 😅 there is soooooo much to discover! Vessel has an incredible vocal range and he’s so versatile. Recommend ‘Blood Sport’ from the room below as it’s more stripped back. Worship.
Also, the mixing on every track is 👌🏼
First time I’ve ever seen anyone start with Telomeres! Welcome!
John Arch - his voice is unlike any other and he has some amazing music out there. Your analysis of him would be very interesting indeed.
Welcome to the rabbit hole called Sleep Token!
I look forward to seeing more of your reactions.
There's so many details into their songs, for example: When you listen to Vore (one of their heaviest songs yet, or the heaviest) you can hear at the very beginning a swallow sound, which makes sense for the song. Here, that "crackling" noise is present in the "back" almost the entire song, those are thin layers that adds so much to each song.
Thank you for giving them a listen and going down this beautiful rabbit hole and incredible journey of sleep token.Worship 🙏
the summoning is the best one i would say with so much changes in it. unexpected gifts :)
I loved this reaction/analysis. I always enjoy reactors that are able to give additional information wither about vocals or an instrument or production.
I also loved the choice of your first Sleep Token reaction. Perfect song and I'd love to see more reactions. ❤
Btw Vessel, the singer, also recordered all the other instruments except drums(that did the drummer named II).III (bassist) and IV(guitarist) are so far just part pf the touring. So Vessel is so freaking talented to sing, write, compose the songs and play all those instruments 🔥
This isn’t the first time I’ve learnt of new artist from The Vocalyst. I’m on this band hard now. Thank you!! 👏👏👏
Let's gooo! And my favorite song of theirs to boot. I love this band. They have helped me get through some hard times. Vessel's voice and lyrics combined with his joint composition with II is just 🤌
Can't wait for Take Me Back to Eden!
Take Me Back to Eden is not "a lot to take in" in the sense that it is overwhelming or anything. Its just simply a beautiful song that is constructed in such a magical way that it is truly an unforgettable experience to listen to for the first time. I hope that you will react to it sooner than later. I've seen so many reactors say they will definitely listen to more or excited to hear more and then they don't release another ST reaction for months. I get that there are a ton of requests and songs out there to listen to, but I just can't understand how some people can hear ST and not want to immediately dive deep into the rabbit hole. ST reactions do numbers too. Worship.
Take me back to eden would be infinitely better without the last 30 seconds or so of screamo bs. It ruins the song imo.
1 month later and no more ST makes me sad :'(
I loved your video. Vessel is an amazing, warm and very versatile vocalist. His vocals are very rich to analize. Thanks for this video ❤
ah, always love your analyses
Uhul, aguardando os próximos vídeos!
I actually get excited when people that really “get” music discover sleep token. It’s one heck of a journey full of discovery, emotion, and reflection. I do recommend starting on their first album through the third chronologically for reasons.
Not only the vocals but the drumming is a journey in itself. II is amazing.
For a piece where vocals are really front and center in creating the atmosphere I recommend Bloodsport (from the room below)!
It's just him and a piano and all the feels.
Let’s gooooo, welcome to sleep token. Worship!
So happy to see you getting into some Sleep Token! Not sure there is a "bad" song to start with but there are so many REALLY cool phrases, juxtapositions, counterpoints, and moments in their catalog... enjoy!!
Bethany is such a beautiful human being.
Signing up to watch the journey, have a nice one!
Interesting stuff! Described on Google; A anonymous, masked collective, the front man with the moniker Vessel! Great everything especially ESPECIALLY the drummer with drums sounding like mini explosions. The guitar mainly clean with a hint of Growl!! Cool! Thanks Bethany and reccomenders!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Bloodsport live from the room below is amazing.
Great react thanks ❤
I recommend Bloodsport. From the room below version to get a good grasp of how great a vocalist Vessel is as its just him and a piano. Beautiful song.
Absolutely love that you didn't go for the obvious first song choice as many others do.
Can't wait for you to enter the Sleep Token loop
Once you enter, there's no turning back ... welcome to the Sleep Token universe!
Yaaaay thank you for choosing to do sleep token! Would really love see your reaction to The Summoning its the biggest song in popularity by them
Worship. Telomeres is such a cool choice for first listen.
Telomeres is a deeper cut but stunningly beautiful, great choice for a video
Subscribing in the hope for more SleepToken.
Can I just say II's drumming on this track is insane too. Especially the last fill at the end. 🙏
I have not heard them before. Sounds amazing, Definitely need to hear more of them! Looks like another rabbit hole for me to go down, Hahaa!
This is probably one of their most underrated songs. it is beautiful though.
Peter Steele of Type O Negative had a very good vocal range, Blood and Fire, Love you to Death, September Sun, Nettie etc. They was called the Drab 4, a different type of rock/metal but very good and underrated. RIP Peter Steele 🙏 🤘
Yes down the rabbit hole...welcome to the magical world of Sleep Token :)
Oh man you’re going to have so much fun with Sleep Token if you’re already liking his pronunciation of certain words/consonance!
Great reaction! Before Take Me Back To Eden, I would suggest Atlantic, The Offering, or Higher. But they're all great. You can't really go wrong.
Venturing down the sleep token rabbit hole you go, chokehold by sleep token should be your next one to know and react to .
Hope you listen to more songs,Sleep Token is absolutely GOLD
Worship
Sleep Token is such a versatile band and I adore them! With a wide array of different type of songs, some being soft and vunerable, some being high energy and really ´in your face´ and everything in between. A true musical journey if you ask me. My personal favorite is Blood sport (From the room below).
Never heard of them before but I'm impressed I like their style love their sound, will search out more of them 👍. Surprised I haven't seen anything by Evanescence, she reminds me of this kinda not that they sound a lot alike more like they both kinda have the same mesmerizing effect on me so to say. There's just something amazing about each of their sounds I don't know what it is, great song will definitely be hearing more from them, thanks whoever suggested it, good call.
The song and the reaction were great :)
Such an awesome band 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
One of my Favorite songs from Sleep Token ❤
I'd be curious to hear you do "Unintended" by Muse, because I think the song is hauntingly beautiful but a vocal performance major I roomed with in college said the singer's technique is terrible. I still think about that every time I hear the song! 😆🥂🎉
ooo yes!! so glad youre listening to Sleep Token, theyve been on repeat since i was introduced to them.
If you haven't already, i would love to hear you react to 'Tyler Childers - Nose On The Grindstone' or any other Tyler Childers song, hes an amazing country/blues singer
Never have heard this guys... I like the song and that light melancholy reminds me on HIM.
@The_vocalyst100 why not here?
This song kinda makes me think of Deftones at parts
Keep going on the sleep token journey it will be so worth it
FINALLY ❤
This is my new favorite band of all time. I would suggest the offering and the night does not belong to god from their first album
Great drums. Sound and phrasing.
You are in for a treat with Sleep Token
The best way to listen to this song is with headphones on laying down in a dark room, just let the atmosphere of it wash over you. Always makes me emotional.
Finally!!!
This is one of my top three. High water is another. The last slot is either .. euclid (solely because of having experienced their discography in order) or almost ANY song from their first two ep's
what an intro to them!
Buckle up! Excited for your journey should you choose to explore more.
Sleep token = emotion
This is the good song😊
Worship
Enjoy your ST rabbit hole. Ascensionism is a must, Chokehold, Granite ...the list is endless!
An untapped source of content for music reactors, vocal couches in particular, is the band Fair to Midland.
One of my top 5 ST songs. ❤
You can't go wrong with any Sleep Token song, but I would love to hear a reaction to Calcutta. I think it is criminally underrated and his vocal performance (IMO) is stunning.
💜
Welcome and whorship!
this is an off the wall one to start with., a good one nonetheless but all their music is gold. Euclid and Take me Back to Eden should be your next two
Good band! Not sure if I like this song, but I do love their newest album Take and Back to Eden
Subscribed for more sleep token.
Amazing! My favorite track is Atlantic, but feel free to check out songs like "Vore" or .. well any other in live vers. He is a very versatile vocalist and I'd love to hear what you think about it, both studio and live - He doesn't dissapoint imo
(edit) pretty sure the effect is just a heavy reverb, he often goes into that more open sound, sounds pretty identical live I feel is why I'm pointing it out :)
And now, the journey continues
It may be a little out of the wheelhouse - but WHIPPED CREAM, Jasiah & Crimson Child - The Dark has some awesome vocals I would love to hear your opinion on. Almost goes into an Opera at one point. Absolutely an amazing display of male vocals.
❤❤
