Even Orthodontists listen to Sleep Token
You're a cool dentist then lol
that means your a cool dentist 10/10 would recommend
make sense they mention a lot of things related to teeth and mouth
In the office or in your car?
love this!!!
"No amount of self-sought fury Will bring back the glory of innocence" Fuck me, that hit hard.

I absolutely love the way you put the musical content of this song!!
Love this, i think represents this song perfectly
it would be post-metal/progressive metal - they are appropriate genre
Yes, you missed come metal :)
@@Kelliegurl67 I may need some help with that one. What exactly is come metal?
Sleep Token could write a song about a chicken sandwich, and make it absolutely heart-wrenching and compelling. This song is the pinnacle of their discography. It moved my entire being. I am thankful for their existence.
Excellent news, I really enjoy a good chicken sandwich.

@@ShrimpTechStocks yep.
The amount of references in this song is quite honestly incredible. Bits from all the way through the albums. They're not completly shoved down your throat either. Breathtaking.
Not just the album. Entire history of the band and few members. If you know we're to look ✌️
@@gamelegend-nl4637 I know the project you're talking about but can you mention the actual references? I didn't catch them
@@camdenwyeth316 In Ascensionism he says I can offer you a blacklit paradise, and on Euclid he says "these ancient canopies we used to lay beneath." He also says something about the Bough breaking (a reference to When the Bough breaks) there's also musical references through the whole album. The love you want in Euclid, the melody on the end of this when he references Chokehold is a slowed down version of the melody in The Offering etc.
@@ninja3687 The last euclid piano riff is the same as The Night does not Belong to God, and vessel also sings the night belongs to you. Maybe he's finally reached God in Eden.
"it was no accident"
You were my wife's favorite band. She passed a month ago and this song hits me so hard. Y'all will be in Rogers soon and I have to be there. I'll have her ring with me. Thank you for giving my wife joy when she was sad. EDIT: apparently y'all aren't coming here. But that's ok. I'll wait until y'all are coming close again
this makes me cry a lot, i hope ur ok!! big hug from Brazil 😭💕💕🇧🇷
Blessings😢
My condolences for your loss, sending all the love from the UK. I hope that concert heals a small wound for you
Man, this hit hard. Bless you.
I hurt for you, friend... find peace.
Take Me Back To Eden Song by Sleep Token I dream in phosphorescence Bleed through spaces See you drifting past the fog But no one told you where to go We dive through crystal waters, perfect oceans But no one told me not to breathe And now the weightlessness recedes My, my, those eyes like fire I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre Come now, bite through these wires I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire I will travel far beyond the path of reason Take me back to Eden, take me back to Eden Take me back to Eden Well yeah, I spit blood when I wake up Sink porcelain stained, choking up brain matter and makeup Just two days since the mainframe went down and I'm still messed up Room feels like a meat freezer, I dangle in it like cold cuts Missed calls, answered phones from people I just don't trust Mirror talk, fake love But I'll take a pound of your flesh Before you take a piece of my paystub White roses, black doves, Godmother, rise up I need you to see me for what I have become My, my, those eyes like fire I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre Come now, bite through these wires I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire I guess it goes to show, does it not? That we've no idea what we've got until we lose it And no amount of love will keep it around If we don't choose it And I don't know what's got its teeth in me But I'm about to bite back in anger No amount of self-sought fury Will bring back the glory of innocence My, my, those eyes like fire I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre Come now, bite through these wires I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire I have traveled far beyond the path of reason Take me back to Eden Take me back to Eden

"No amount of self-sought fury Will bring back the glory of innocence" Insane lyrics
Luke 10:18. I saw Lucifer fall from heaven like lightening.. Where he fell caused chaos until Elohim created Eden: order out of chaos.
It's about addiction. I'll cook: 👨🏻🍳 Eden represents innocence in two ways. One: when he had self control, and control over his life, before the addiction(s). Two: the innocence of trying these vices for the first time. Every relapse is like a fragmented memory of that first time. The sad reality of the feeling of euphoria reducing at the same rate your life is consumed and deteriorated with each dose/experience. The first verse seems to describe such innocent first encounters: a more direct read suggests drugs, but it could be fame, sex or even financial success. It uses words like dream, drifting, fog, spaces, waters, oceans, weightlessness... even the word phosphorescence reminds me of psychedelics. It ends that verse with "But no one told me not to breathe" perhaps indicating he felt like he was not aware of the negative consequences to indulging in these activities and feels like he was deceived to a degree. Like he should have dipped a toe and been more careful, but the enjoyment of crystal waters and perfect oceans blinded him to this reality. "and now the weightlessness recedes" seems like a reference to a come down, especially compared to the previous line "no one told me not to breathe", indicating some regret. 🍲 Then Chorus: "my my those eyes...." first describes the allure of drugs, partying, the fast life. He flies to that which destroys him strictly because of its undeniable appeal. He's clean right now (off drugs, or dating apps, w/e) but it's killing him and he feels himself giving in... He knows this is wrong but he's restless sober. Maybe the withdrawals are too much. "grow back your sharpest teeth you know my desire." He feels like he can't escape his desire to relapse so he plans to dive in hard... again. Then Refrain: Notice here he uses future tense "I will travel". I read this as him implying he'll do anything to fix his situation.. at this point he is broken, but hopeful. 🥘 The rapped bit has some fun wordplay but seems like a blunt metaphor for the Sunday scaries. He's hungover. He's now paranoid that the people around him don't care about him. "mirror talk, fake love, but I'll take a pound of your flesh before you take a piece of my paystub" In this paranoid hungover state he sees people attempting to support him as a threat. In his view they are trying to ride his coat tails and stay close to him for their own financial benefit. Maybe because they tour a lot the people he spends his time with are mostly business acquaintances that he perceives as fake friends, only interested in supporting him because they want a piece of his success. A nasty selfish state of being... often associated with withdrawal and hangovers. After that shitty day why not just relapse for some comfort, he needs it you see. Chorus. The piano interlude section with the clean vocals doesn't fit my template as obviously or straightforward as the rest, but, I'll keep the sauté going: 🫕 What he lost was essentially himself. He feels like his success and these addictions have fundamentally changed who he is. "and no amount of love will keep it around if we don't chose it" despite his popularity and the love he's shone by fans etc. he feel like he was consumed by his lifestyle. In his view he chose to be this person he thought he needed to be to "make it" and that led him down this dark path... had he chosen to stay true to himself and not compromise his "innocence", maybe he'd be less popular, but he'd still be him. The next line expresses the feeling of not understanding how this has happened to him and the undirected rage bubbling up to the surface. He's grasping for something to blame. Then with the last two lines of this section "no amount of self-sought fury will bring back the glory of innocence" he realizes his feelings are utterly useless. Whether his anger is justified or not, nothing can repair the damage that has been done. . . So why not just relapse right back into the fire. Chorus. Last refrain "I have traveled far beyond the path of reason, take me back to Eden, take me back to Eden." Past tense... Hope lost. He's gone as far as he can conceive of to return to himself and his innocence but is now giving up. Eden now, rather than actual innocence, represents chasing the dragon only. He now succumbs to pursuing what fading solace his addictions can provide. A bitter, bitter end. 🍾🥂 Sweet dreams! If anyone read this, I am impressed and flattered.
They could write 20 minute songs and pull it off flawlessly.

"I guess it goes to show does it not, We've no idea what we've got until we lose it, no amount of love will keep it around if we dont choose it." This part hit me somewhere so deep that it took me back to my childhood, and it broke me. It is very rare when a song can bring out such deep emotions of anger, love and hate. This song did it!
I hope you are not blaming your childhood self for not choosing love to be around. You are not to blame but of course the pain is real and it can be very fruitful to reflect the past and try to understand it to get a better picture of the present self.
Same for me... the chorus? "My, my, those eyes like fire/I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre/Come now, bite through these wires/I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired" just...wow.
There's a very sad and melancholy nostalgia to this man's voice. Yeah, these songs are very personal to him, and it shows. Also, can we just appreciate how beautiful his voice is? That gift should not go without mentioning. It's as if a man is striving for a feeling of completeness he lost a long time ago.
His voice sounds like he understands me, if that makes any sense lol
❤sentimientos puros ❤
@@angelesalvarezlasarte656 I apologize for not understanding what that means. Could you translate that to English? I understand the part where you were conveying a sentiment of sorts as one of the words suggested. But what's the sentiment? Again, I really only speak English.
I'm hoping that he's using proper techniques for his harsh vocals. Wouldn't want him to lose his voice from doing screams wrong.
@gavindooly2375 Google translate translates it to "Pure feelings"
The singers voice is like the SILKIEST cup off dark roast coffee. Still a tad bitter but it hits that spot that makes you go oh yeaaaah. Listen to this so many times

I love this description
So true. I love vessel's voice sm and heavenly voice + euphoric metal-y music = perfect.
Were you drinking coffee when typing thar comment? 😂
@doyz5803 no I just really like coffee and recently started using my French press again which makes coffee taste so much better lol
I love the fact that unlike many british singers vessel doesn't lose his accent while singing which adds a nice flavour to the song.
Sounds a lot like the guy in Bastille, actually.
@@Zeta9966 Oh man, I can hear it now! I thought he sounded familiar but couldn't place it.
I'm a non native english speaker so I don't hear Vessel has any British accent. Cause usually British guys uses too much thrust & push too much air from their mouth while speak. Like the pronunciation of the word "too" would be sounds like "thhhhoo" for british. So, I'm confused like a "Boo-wooa-wah-ah" 🤣 Btw, Vessel's voice is out of this world.
@@alexjohnson6674British accents are also in a huge range, so i get it.

Ohh dear I've been hearing "reset my patient files" lmfao

The layers of build ups is absolutely incredible. The last minute of this song was an amazing powerful surprise.
Yes! The dynamics throughout this song and the way it builds up to that jarring bomb drop of a breakdown at the end is impeccable and that breakdown hits all the harder for it, along with with that tormented distorted screaming. Just magnificent. Haters won't grok and that's fine by me.
This is even better with good headphones, my god
This is facts. Haha. I listened to the whole album when it was released, super stoned laying in the sun with JBL headphones and it was one of the best things I've ever experienced 😂😂😂😂😂
It is, its beyond anything
I don't listen to Sleep Token without my ear pods 😂
Absolutely!! If I'm playing music on BT speaker, and this song comes on, I have to run and get my headphones instantly!
no way listening to music with good headphones sounds good??? wowowoww
sleep token.. eyes of your eyes.. i don't think i need any other bands.
Holy shit, I just found out about EOYE too!! That music video for Magnetron was U N R E A L
Crazy to see a comment about those guys here. I'm hooked, definitely some insane stuff. 😈🤘
undderrated band. thanks for the recommendation!
Late to the party but Eyes of Your Eyes is shockingly good. MV for magnetron drumcorps remix left me slackjawed the entire time. Just.. new dimensions of heavy. 🤯
Check out Soen.
I would feel so disappointed if the rest of the songs don’t get their own visualizers because this entire album is a MASTERPIECE.
It is incredible, there is not a single track that disappoints
There is a hoodie on their website that has 12 different models that all say the names of the songs next to them (its in their coded language seen on the album cover.) and it has all the current ones we've seen so far, so They at least have the artwork for every single "Character"
I agree. However, Ascensionism pissed me off. You start off a song with this incredibly beautiful ballad. Here I am like, “Oh my God could this be better than ‘Atlantic?’” Then the song switches up to R&B and I’m like “What the fuuuuck?!?!” I felt like doing a Shawshank redemption style dramatic effect while down on my knees, arms out screaming “Nooooooooooo!”
@@Imissthesands-kk8bt awful take. Ascensionism bangs
@@stonedinvalhalla I never said I hated the song. I don’t hate the song. I like the song a lot. I just would’ve enjoyed it a fuck load better if they treated more like Atlantic. An absolute majestic, tear-jerking ballad ended in triumph with the rest of the band like you’re flying into the solar system.
There's not a lot of things I could comfortably call perfect. This is one of those things.
My very best friend past away in his sleep recently. I dedicated this song to him during his service. RIP

"And no amount of love will keep it around if we don't choose it"... What a line.
Live that shit because it's so true.
It's double edged, you can stop choosing a bad/toxic/abusive relationship and still love the person who hurt you. Love isn't enough, it can't be. Especially if it only flows in one direction (like worship).

I have a very bad attention span but I will absolutely listen to this 8 minute song. It’s literally a masterpiece
Just got into this band yesterday, It's like Maynard, Hozier, and Deftones on 8 string metal. A true breath of fresh air 🔥

If this song amazed you in any sense, you haven't listened to much.
It's a deftones ripoff mixed with a vaguely r&b midsection, and ends with a Loathe rip off heavy section. 3 genres, 2 of which are already cousins.
@@phahq been listening to more than enough, thank you very much
@@therealdaveportnoy620 so new music is only good if they invent a new genre that defines their sound? if you would call any music inspired by deftones a "ripoff" you would have to cancel half of the scene lol just the fact that they managed to make a 3 section song mixing all of that and still sound as good as that is already creative enough and other bands will definitely take notes for future projects just like what happened after bmth in 2013 and architects in 2016

Maybe the best Sleep Token song yet? Hard to say among so many 11/10 songs, but this song is fucking incredible. One of the best outros of any song ever
They released six songs and on practically every one of them people were like "how is the rest going to fare if they are releasing all the bangers ahead of time" Then we get songs like ascensionism, apparition, rain, and tmbte? They have no business being even better.

“No amount of self sought fury will bring back the glory of innocence” holy god that line alone!
Musical taste is personal, which is why people who love this will never understand those who hate it. I love this, as it speaks to my soul 🖤❤️
idk man, this band is unimaginative, uncreative, nothing new, nothing inspiring and this kind of music has been done to death since the 2008's. I hate this kind of music as a kid and now in my 30's its still bad. maybe you need to be exposed to alot more music cause if this speaks to your soul then you really haven't been exposed to music, sad really
I've had a lifetime of exposure to great music, thanks. As I said, music is personal. If you hate this type of music, why are you trolling me on the comments for this video? Maybe you should concentrate on music that fires you up, and not loitering around stuff you hate, criticising people who have a difference of opinion with you. Peace, out.
This band is so fucking good
I'm 37 years old musician who has played and listened to an enormous amount of music and this band is the most unique band I've heard in years, they have a sound that transcends through so many music styles and the core of it is pure intense emotion. Absolutely incredible band, incredible musicians and a band that industry has needed for years. All the best for them
@@govys85ive listened to so much stuff, from the most modern pop and rap to old rock and metal, to modern tech death metal and enjoyed it all. Theres a difference between hearing a lot and appreciating a lot. I may not be a fan of many pop artists but I see the appeal because its simple, enjoyable music. If you cant appreciate this then thats fine, but dont ridicule someone for understanding something you cant and never will. If you relate to happy by pharrel williams, thats great. If you relate to a lorna shore song, also good for you. Music is subjective and your lack of insight into a particular band isn’t indicative of anything beyond a difference in taste. Go enjoy what you like, but dont act like it makes you better than someone else. You elitists are the problem with metal as a community.
This band has done something in my soul that I just can’t explain. It’s like every lyric is a thought I’ve always had that I didn’t know how to put into words. This is so much deeper than just music.
This...this hits it.
Agree. It’s magic, it’s art… it’s unexplainable. Welcome to worship my friend.
Steph carpenter from Deftones sent me here.
I feel that with them as well. It's hard to explain but it just hits you in that one spot deeper then anything before

@@rappleby91I love Architects

His voice and the combination of styles its honestly amazing what they have done as a group. Really builds a fire in me honestly.

I wish not to be overtly dramatic, but this just became my favorite album of all time. Easily AOTY.
Yeah!!

As a heavy, deathcore metal listener, I find really stupid to think that you need to hate them just BC they're edging into pop, with metal. They're pretty much a mood. I didn't like the whole album myself but I think the work to compose and arrange the album was flawless, creative and changing.. very much appreciated. Really looking forward to hear more from them.
Its just a good band. But its getting too overrated for me… like, i cant see or hear what is all the hype about 😅

@@paulgk6114 I feel ya
@@omerquiaragua2 no, it's about not caring how "cringe" or "normie" you will seem and just doing what you want to hear yourself putting all you influences into it. genre hipsters is what holds music back. people following their intuition is what creates new genres by mixing what already exists molding it into something new. not saying this is high art. it 's music and it slaps. there are so many amazing pop songs in history. if you love music in general, you know what i'm talking about. if you are stuck in puberty trying to belong to a tribe/gang you won't get it..
Ohhhh, that CHORUS. It just reels me in every time. "I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre, come now bite through these wires...." and when he goes into that tormented distorted screaming at the end it just slaps you hard. The emotion present in his singing and vocal arrangements is simply incredible. I have got to start scoring CDs! EDIT: This one is still on heavy rotation for me, and I pity that one guy who couldn't tell where the chorus is. If you can't figure that out, I don't know what to tell you other than you're maybe being totally disingenuous.
Where are you hearing this "chorus"? Because I'm not hearing anything here that feels like a chorus.

@@thekoolster1014 ...are you unfamiliar with the concept of a question?
@nuberiffic are you unfamiliar with the concept of an answer? I literally typed out the chorus for you to answer your question. If that's not what you meant, word your question better.
I have listened to this song maybe 50 times as it ended up back-to-back in my play list, so it goes twice in a row. It was not until I was reading the comments that I realized this is an eight minute song. 16 minutes if you consider it always played back-to-back. It is so good that the time just melts as you are consumed, coming out the other side with renewed vigor.
Wherever this band goes from here, I can only hope that they know how much this music means to so many of us. How much these songs have resonated… If it is true that “nothing lasts forever”, I’m glad that I had the privilege of being here while it did and for as long as it continues. Thank you, Sleep Token. Worship.
They know. Listen to the room below speech. "You saved me." It is reciprocated, reciprocal". And Euclid...Euclid emphasizes that.
Such an amazing song. Sleep token is somehow the perfect mix of metal, dying goats, pop, rap, funk, emotion and who fucking knows what else.
Dying goats 😂
Whatever floats your -dying- goat 😂😂
This is the first time I've heard this band, I have no idea why it took so long, absolutely engrossing and beautiful.
My first time listening to them is right now, glad I'm not alone. It's pretty damn awesome.
I had heard of them just never listened. Well that changed over the weekend and I’m so glad it did, what an emotional ride !! I’m so hooked on this album now, and I’ve already ordered me a Sleep Token “The Apparition” t-shirt 😁🤘🏻
I can’t express enough how phenomenally beautiful this song is. Every single album has hit so different but all are so extraordinary. This band will never cease to amaze me
You don't have to... We all know as we sit here In awe
Whenever he's doing the faster vocal lines over the trap beat, the piano chords he's choosing just makes me feel something. This song and the one after it on the album both just unlock so much deep seated sadness.
Can't express, but you still feel the need to try for no reason whatsoever. Hurray for pointless comments!
This album cleansed my ears, body and soul. This work of art will be the soundtrack of my existence. Thank you Sleep Token, WORSHIP.
Bro. This shit cleansed my colon AND sinuses. 😂
😂
I mean you should only really worship Jesus but I really like sleep tokens music
@@ghosty3715 Jesus above everything! 🙏🏼☀️
We are really not OK. What a thing to drop on us. This album has been on constant repeat for 21 hours now and doesn’t look like stopping any time soon. 🖤💔🖤🙏🏻
Literally all I've been listening to, this hasn't happened with an album drop before.. this one has hit different
Same. 🖤🖤🖤
I often wake up realizing that Sleep Token has provided the soundtrack to my dreams.
Oh. Where'd you go? My bad, I took too long.
My favourite from the album. Glad they made it actually sound so nature-like
I honestly didn't think they'd top the summoning but they managed it.
Phenomenal. I've been listening to this album on repeat all day.
I've had it on repeat pretty much all day since 3am hahaha, absolutely obsessed
@@ryanlennon6269 same
Just lost my mom yesterday and one of the only things helping me to cope is this band. Something about it resonates in me and I just feel soothed for the time being
The breakdown at the end as the black is filling up the room is incredible. This entire album is a masterpiece
🕷🕸
So, I’ve finally had the pleasure to sit with and absorb the third release in Sleep Token’s trilogy of albums, “Take Me Back To Eden.” There are a lot of feelings, and a lot of layers with this album. But I don’t want to simply rehash what dozens of other reviewers out there are talking about. Not that those points are irrelevant, rather, I’d like to speak to what they’re NOT speaking to. Sleep Token writes love songs. Point blank, period. At the end of the day, that’s what these songs are. So if there isn’t a hopeless romantic inside of you, these songs might not speak to you and you can honestly find yourself bored. I’m not here to dispute that. These songs run the gamut from break-up songs, to sexy-time songs, and EVERYTHING in between. And this band will use any method they choose to communicate these messages - be that low tuned, distorted guitars and double bass - or dark synth-pop and trap. Sleep Token does not have time for anyone to “figure them out”, or decide what box/genre they fit in. This album is everything I didn’t know I needed in music. Some of the tracks at first listen were a little out of my comfort zone, but once I got over the fact that they use a method of music that I’m not normally used to - I was able to hear the song for what it was…just great, relatable music that speaks to the human heart and all the ways in which we’ve experienced love, for better or worse. Genre-bending music on this level has been attempted, but never so well done. Take Me Back To Eden cuts through to a part of me that I’m not sure if it was dormant, or didn’t exist in the first place. But now it’s there, and I’m happy to have it as a part of my journey in this life. Less a collection of songs and more an experience, TMBTE is an instant classic that will grow deeper roots with every playthrough.
Sounds like you've got it all figured out.
my friend.....you get it. god bless 💙
Phenomenal review
Well said my dude 🙌🏻
Nice copy and paste
Whoever is mixing and mastering for Sleep Token deserve all kinds of Grammy's. The sonics and production are absolutely incredible.
I believe it’s George Lever. He does clips on URM Academy vids here on KZhead where he talks about working with ST, respecting their anonymity, etc. He also has some playing credits on some of the songs, he played bass on Alkaline.
@@joedamore7653 This one was done by Carl Brown and Vessel himself
@@joedamore7653 Not for this album. This is the first thing they've done without him
@@ER04040 I liked Lever’s mixes, they were dense yet had separation, especially the de-tuned guitars, they were really crushing. And the vocal production was so clear and articulate.
@@joedamore7653 and the drums. Lever's production on drums are just insanely good
Forever grateful to have the honour of experiencing this perfect work of art. WORSHIP. All Sleep token fans stand with you 💜
After listening for a few times, I found that the "Eden" the singer is referring to seems to be changing. The first two repeats seems to be referring to a person they had a passionate love with and the last one seems to be yearning for the safe space he was in before any of those things happened, before he met his "funeral pyre." The words, and the singer's emotions as he sang each lines brought such a compelling story and somehow got me empathizing with the character in the story. From the beginning as he describes the moment he met "that someone", experienced happiness, experienced passion, to what seems to be a separation and all these emotions and thoughts left behind in the wake of that former happiness. As he tells his reflections and thoughts to this "Godmother," I can't help but want to give this character a pat in the shoulder for being able get out all these emotions in a song, and hopefully this would help him learn from this and move on towards a hopefully better future.
“No amount of self-sought fury will bring back the glory of innocence” Earlier, I stumbled upon old pictures I hadn’t seen in a long time. They brought memories of all kind. Feels like a million past lives sought through. I see these captured glimpses and I remember how I felt at those exact moments. I see myself through a loop from everything in between who I am, what I’ve been through, where I’ve been and where I am now. Seeing these exact moments right before storms, those glorious moments of innocence and the loaded dreams that left me empty. And how unaware I was of what was going to hit, and everything that was lost underneath. That line flashed through my mind in those instants and hit like a hurricane. How diluted the concept of time gets. You think it doesn’t have as much of an impact and there you are years later, waking up far below the surface unaware you’ve been drowning all along. It feels like I’ve recently woken up. It’s a painful but cathartic eye opening and I can only seek to weaponize it to build my strength. If you are reading this, I want you to know you are more than a Vessel. You’re of the heavens and the stars, a carved constellation flowing beyond life and death. The melodies of your soul sing to wake the constant rebirth of infinity. Let your stars align again. Thank you for colliding mine.
Beautifully written!
As beautiful as the writers Heart 🔥❤ 🔥
Fantastically written. I felt this; if that’s the intention or not, here we are.
damn, just commenting here, so i can come back to read this again another time
Thank you for sharing, the way you're describing the song and its effects on you has me connecting similarly. It truly walks the fine line of gentle, calm, bitter, and sweet. This concept is what it's all about, we lose our innocence but we grow and evolve in exchange. Also living in the moment and really appreciating what you have is also an important concept here.
You really have to be good to have me listening to 8+ minutes of a song. Fantastic
So like every tool song
You must be new to metal and it's subgenres
So every dream theater song
Pop songs were a mistake
@@AvgABC561 Lol I listen to the full Octavarium song (24 minutes) without skipping because it's so good
Wow! This song is 8 minutes? Never noticed! Doesn't drag on at all, it's perfect!
This song should be nominated for a Nobel Prize.
Take Me Back to Eden by Sleep Token and The Death of Peace of Mind by Bad Omens are the best albums to have come out recently!
Fucking facts. Hands down
You forgot cattle decapitation and their new album terrasite
ABSOLUTELY TRUE Maťka!
@@masonspencer9164can't forget Paleface Swiss, either. "Best Before: Death" and "Please End Me" Are absolute face melters.
meanwhile LOATHE creating literally a magnum opus.
That vocal melody absolutely kills. It feels like a poem or fairytale
"No amount of self-sought fury Will bring back the glory of innocence" oof, that hits deep. Jesus came to save!!
Well for starters the reason so many people are resonating with this is song is because bro is in a modern way relatable asf. But it’s uplifting rock not depressing as lots of rock is. The only way they can relate to you is by tapping into your negative, this is the positive aspect we are experiencing
This deserves a Grammy Performance.
Absolutely yes... That would be so incredible.
Doubt it will happen. But I agree. Grammys suck.
Have you watched the Grammys in the last 10 years?
It will get more views here and on TikTok 🤩
Unfortunately its not a 2 minute song lmao
I'm here to tell Vessel that he created a beautiful masterpiece, to me Take Me Back To Eden it's perfection that others bands would like to achieve. Thank you for this beautiful masterpiece. WORSHIP.
Absolutely beautiful song, this song has become one of most valued songs of all time. Thank u for the beautiful inspiration of music
Single father....... TEARS AND TEARS MET WITH RAGE AND HELPLESSNESS..... AS SOON AS I HEARD THAT DROP I BROKE DOWN..... YESSSSSSSSS..... thank you for that. Life has been so fucking hard that i live numb to it anymore. So being to actually feel is a blessing
To a better 2024 Jeff 🍻
I can't listen to this song all the time. It unlocks too much sadness buried deep down. There's just something about it. It's so amazing though. Single father also. Not my choice. Some pieces of yourself people steal when they destroy you ever come back. Some wounds truly never heal no matter how much time goes by.
Yes, tears. This band cuts so visceral. Know that it will get better, Jeff. Keep those kids close. Sometimes they are all that's right in the world!
This is one of the most creative, well put together, huge, massive, catchy, sexy, deep, heavy, not heavy, genre bending, mold breaking, non gate keeping , gut wrenching, 3 point draining, masterfully crafted albums I’ve ever heard. No one is topping this. Sorry baht it. Worship.
Jesus, it's not *THAT* great lol.. I swear everyone acts like this band is a cult
@@hhaste Uhhh, it is "THAT" great.
I'm convinced I listened to a different album than these "worshipers," lol. It's mid at best.
Ok Karen 🤡
@DizzyMan24 I can see saying it isn't something to be worshipped, but saying it is mid...I find that interesting that you can't hear the brilliance. What music do you put on a pedestal out of curiosity? You have to have a reference point.
Dear God it's like a band has sold their soul for completely flawless and heart-wrenching music that cannot be compared to nothing else. Absolutely love this band
I'm pretty sure they did 😅 Take a second to look up the symbol the singer wears on it's mask
Worship ❤
@@pappasierra703 what is that symbol?
@@ColereHumanity its an ancient rune from Elder Futhark that grants immense energy at the cost of great sacrifice. It means a couple other things too, but the band basically sacrifice everything to give us this music.
Really?
I just found y’all and I’m forever grateful
Have fun. There’s a lot to unfold
This band is the perfect blend of everything needed to make a metal band. Such emotion, passion, and a good story in every song... I'm hooked and CAN'T get enough of their music! 🤘
While they have many aspects of metal....I'm not even sure if I would consider them strictly metal I'm not sure wtf they are , honestly. Pretty damn good.
this is not metal lol
Take me wherever you want at this point. This is a masterpiece
I don’t think sleep token will ever let me down. Definitely want to see them live
You absolutely *need* to see them live.
I just hope they come to New Zealand one day!
I’ve seen them Live, twice now. Vessel’s vocals are exactly like this.
Oct. 8 Sacramento Aftershock Festival.🙏
I want to... But it's annoying to have a million phone screens in your face.
Best song of 2023 period. we are in 2024 and now we can finally say it
Holy crap its like wine gets better every time i listen
As someone who's listened to Sleep Token since about circa 1850, I'd like everyone to acknowledge my status as practically in the band. You know, because you're only cool if you started listening to a band before they were born.
Gatekeeping is bullshit. Don't know why everyone wants to one-up each other all the time.
I listened to Sleep Token before I was even aware of their existence
You can´t be cool if you listen to this.
bah, peasant! I've been listening to sleep token since 900 AD!
Thrust from the primordial soup, I discovered Sleep Token during my first incarnation in the 4th century.
I could never sing music like this... every single moment is filled with so much emotion. On stage? I have so much respect... thank you... just for being you.
I dunno how to describe their music but I wanna call it... worshipful, religious, spiritual, and ethereal 😳 (and I'm not even religious) I'm glad i discovered them
Your being lied to from the devil. This isn’t okay my brother.
@@DavinchiDotit's not for you to judge, so says your God, right?
@@DanikaCirice I’m not judging, I’m trying to help him
@@DanikaCirice there’s a reason this song sounds like the way he described it as. The devil was the angel of worship. Also look at the video, he looks like a fallen Angel. It’s not a coincidence. Open your eyes please.
@@DavinchiDot I honestly did not expect you to respond in such a respectful way. My comment was a throw away, simply coming from a place of having been deeply wounded by bad Christians. I actually admire and respect Christians such as yourself. You're using your religion to try to help people better their lives. I do think that focusing on art and music is a bit misdirected. A lot of the artists and musicians who write these types of lyrics are coming from a heavily religious background. Some people connect to God through metal like this and it strengthens their faith. Others, like myself, simply see it for what it is, raw poetry about the human experience; that includes light and dark, abuse and love, toxicity and nurturing. These are but human traits and if Jesus died for our sins then God surely understands the dance we all play in our lives to not be consumed by the shadows.
The lion roar at 1:42 and the whale sound at 1:59 enhance the atmosphere so much! AOTY for me by a long shot! TMBTE has it all: raw emotion, atmosphere, perfect transitions, absolutely devastating lyrics, really heavy moments contrasting with the ethereal softer ones, and genre-bending. The cycle looping is just the cherry on top, grateful for all the callbacks
Never even noticed and I’m on my like 10th play through
@@jakeallis the sound design is absolutely beautiful on this project. Take it all in
Wow 🤯 didn’t notice that
Time for some more Gojira Flying Whales
Hands down album of the year
literally the best thing to happen in music in my 31 years of life
Right?! I'm 32 and feel the same!
“And no amount of love will keep it around unless we choose it” After 16 years of marriage at 38 years old I can confidently say this best sums up what it takes.
I don’t think there will ever be a group that could knock Sleep Token off of my first place pedestal. Truly masters of their craft. Worship🙏🏻
I’m not here to spill my guts but just know that we’re all going through something and when this gift of a man sings “And I don’t know what’s got it’s teeth in me, but I’m about to bite back in anger”…….. I could literally SOAR through the sky. The emotion and lyrical genius this man has been gifted is absolutely unmatched. Every song on this album pulls me in every emotional direction you can imagine. Fan for life. 🖤
It's so cool how we all can find that one line, one chord, one note that just hits you
I also recommend Thrice.
That line got me
Love this comment! Sleep Token is an absolute gift!
@@Krondelo 💯
And no amount of love will keep it around If we don't choose it
This will revolutionise music entirely. We have seen bands break their songs up into multiple genres. Idk what the fuck this was. What do you call it? Fucking inspiring is what.
My daughter just recently introduced Sleep Token to me. I find myself at a complete loss of words to describe the incredible journey filled with every emotion possible. This whole album is pure Perfection.
Same, my brother got me into them. They're badass then a mf.
That your daughter brought you to them is so cool.
some random guy on Instagram told me about them and I'm so glad he did cause wow I love this band
Your daughter is a smart cookie
You better be proud
"My my, those eyes like fire I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre." TELL ME YOU'RE IN A TOXIC RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT TELLING ME YOU'RE IN A TOXIC RELATIONSHIP. But seriously, those are amazing lyrics and they hit... very close for me this year.
This song brings me so many emotions. It takes me back to my childhood and brings back the feelings I had as a kid when growing up. We won't ever feel the joys of innocence and ignorance. The feeling I have now trying so hard to be happy again. I wish I could go back, I would do anything to go back in time just to have those few happy moments again.
My Favorite Song From The Best Album of the Decade! This and Ascensionism are just something out of this world!
I love how the chorus gets more intense each time vessel sings it. The instruments The vocals The lyrics The whole song is perfection
Tokn reference
And different. Like the 2nd chorus sounds like something I would hear in a hip hop song, like Drake or something.
It's absolutely insane
The way the double kick drums punch through the mix as he screams BACK at 7:27 is incredible
This gives me the chills. I absolutely love what they did with this song in general. A complete masterpiece.
