I believe it’s “half algorithm half deity, glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream” it’s not your fault the lyric video was wrong but to me that makes the lyrics that much more dope
@@UncleTrebor Also believe that its "synapses snap back in blissful anguish" not "language" repeated. Like part of him enjoys the pain that being around this person inflicts upon him at the same time as wishing that they weren't like this...
@@UncleTrebor Seems like you got screwed a few times there Well, I know what you want from me You want someone to be Your reflection, your bitter deception Setting you free So you take what you want and leave Who made you like this? Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language? Synapses snap back in blissful anguish Tell me you met me in past lives, past life Past what might be eating me from the inside, darling Half algorithm, half deity Glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream Tell me you guessed my future and it mapped onto your fantasy Turn me into your mannequin and I'll turn you into my puppet queen Won't you come and dance in the dark with me? Show me what you are, I am desperate to know Nobody better than the perfect enemy Digital demons make the night feel heavenly Make it real 'Cause anything's better than the way I feel right now I can offer you a blacklit paradise Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Lipstick, chemtrails, red flags, pink nails With one eye on the door, other eye on a rail Other, other eye following a scarlet trail And the last few drops from the Holy Grail, now Rose gold chains, ripped lace, cut glass Blood stains on the collar, please, just don't ask Be the first to the feast, let's choke on the past And take to the broken skies at last Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky You're gonna watch me ascend And I know what you want from me You want the same as me My redemption, eternal ascension Setting me free So I'll take what I want then leave You make me wish I could disappear, oh You make me wish I could disappear
I love that you pay so much attention to the lyrics. Alot of reactors don't even mention the lyrics. The man is a magician with words. You feel them in your soul!❤
You can taste how deep this song is. You can run this song back 100 times and get different angles on what it means. This one took the crown away from TMBTE as my favorite song after listening to it like 60 times on repeat. It still kills me how his voice quivers in the second part when he says "setting me FREE" his voice quivers on free, like he's not sure if he is, or that hes overcome with emotion that he finally is. I still havent figured it out because there's an over arching idea that with his "Ascension" may be referring to his death. Then i went back to the first album which im sure you'll do at some point to get the full picture. At the very end of the album there is a song called "Bloodsport". Its currently fighting with Ascensionism as my favorite lyrically. Ascensionism still takes it musically, but maybe not...see? Its still a battle. When you get there, listen to the original version with the whole band first. The end of the song destroys me. After that you can watch "The Room Below" version thats a stripped version with just Vessel and the piano. One last thing on Ascensionism, in the interlude part of the song where it repeats "Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky" he adds in "You make me wish i could disappear" in a somber voice when they do it live. After hearing it live, you can almost hear in deeply layered in the back of the album version. So many layers to this onion we're cooking with. As always, love your insight, it helps make things new again coming from a different pov.
No doubt!!! Wow... I had been struggling with feeling like I failed you guys bc I hadn't brough the full context to the interpretation... But I see now that sometimes the ignorance can take you on a different path of perspectives!
Even though some lyrics were off, ya'll get it 😏 besides, us sleepyheads know the lyrics like the back of our hands. Also I so appreciate the dive into the lyrics. Their songs can be difficult to interpret and I like getting different point of views. Keep 'em coming!❤ also this is my favorite ST song hands down.
Loving the dive into the lyrics. And as someone in the comments said, the 3 albums are a trilogy. Knowing that, IF you start diving into all of them, try to save Euclid last. It’s a nice pay off to end with.
Great reaction dudes! I would have to say, Ascensionism is up on my top of list songs for ST. If you guys get a chance to see them live, recommend it. They put on a good show.
ohh man yall did another one. not gonna lie these are some of the best reactions ive seen brothers. Much love from Atlanta Ga. i mean im speechless. From the music and how much its helping you guys....aiight im a fan. lol. let me down easy fellas. Wait until the ladies hear about this? They gonna cry and worship as well. Sleep Token is on another level. And ill admit.. a good level. prepare tho Sleep token gonna steal ya wife lol. and the dog too possibly they that fire lol.
This lyric was made pretty soon after release, so there were no official lyrics (still technically isn't, but we've deciphered the vast majority). Genius lyrics is gonna be your best friend for these since fans have been able to update along the way :) Love love love this! Can't wait for more. I wanna see y'all react to Nazareth from their second EP in 2017.
This song is like a score to short film! It’s so powerful..I think it really speaks to many people in whatever form they need it to, as does all of their lyrics! That last part where he says you make me wish I could disappear always makes me emotional because I, and I’m sure others, can really relate to having been with someone, in whatever form, that made them want to disappear…but yeah…Vessel is a freaking poet and a genius imo! I’m sure someone already said this but does all the song writing minus a few that o think the drummer wrote (older ones I believe), does all the singing/screaming, plays the piano/synths, guitar, and bass! And II does drums! Live they have a whole band and back up female vocals and it’s incredible! Seeing them in May for the first time and I cannot wait!! Really enjoy your reactions! You’re interpretations and understanding of the songs and lyrics are really impressive and spot on as far as I can tell! The thing with Sleep Token is, you will notice the deeper you dive, you will have some questions answered, but then you’ll be left with even more questions 🤣 Everything they do is 100% intentional and everything ties together in a 3 album trilogy! There’s also a few EPs, covers, and “acoustic” versions of songs ( called, “from the room below ) So you have plenty to check out and I hope you enjoy the journey!!
Three songs I would suggest that are some of my favorites from them, Rain, Alkaline, and the apparition! Great band love every track I’ve heard from them. Love the reactions and also want to say I’m trying to have a relationship with my father like you have with your son! Keep up the great work
My boy ended his life after Christmas and every fucking day i regret i ddidn't show him this song before he did what he thought what was his only way out. Just to show him that he wasn't alone. Now i dont have a brother that i wouldn't give EVERYTHING to have him back. Check on your boys, love them, and let them know that life is unbearable without them thier.
Bro I'm sorry to hear this. I know what its like to lose a best friend and not be able to tell him all the things you could to help him... I also lost a nephew right before Thanksgiving and this channel is Uncle Trebor to try and be that uncle or father figure that people need in life. To talk about the deep things and help people and myself conquer the mental labrynth we face everyday. Keep moving and lets not make the same mistake again with the next friend!
talk about Outkast in a different way...wow, im from Atlanta. an lemme say again....wow. Sleep token bossman. Thats why they flew to the UK months ago. now i cannot confirm this but....if you blessed my song like this...and i had the means....brother we going to hang out. we gonna eat. we gonna we going to put soo much love on this earth...they wont know what the hell to do. and thats the truth!" Spoken. Worship.
Hey there! Great reaction(s) just watched a bunch of your videos and I really love how you guys break down the lyrics give your interpretation. Looking forward to even more videos and especially Sleep Token. Take Me Back to Eden is my favorite album of last year hands down, especially the last track - Euclid. Cheers!
I love it when you bring your son on…that said, I like your opinion about the darkness. In the dark we see what is light more clearly. It takes robbing us of the sun to see the stars that show we aren’t alone in the universe. Take that down to a personal level…we don’t see the things that are truly light to us until darkness falls. Only when darkness falls do we see the things that have their own shine because even the moon lies and proves it’s dependence on the sun for its illumination
I completely resonate with what you said about the darkness being where you find out who you really are. It's tough as hell but you gotta go through it to become who you're supposed to be. I believe that with all my heart.
Some corrections to the lyric video. these come out so fast people think they hear the lyrics correctly but almost all of them have mistakes - half algorithm half deity (instead of half of a rhythm), who encrypted your dark gospel IN body language (meaning he can see the dark gospel in her body language) there are also some callbacks to Vessel's former project from years ago. "Blacklit paradise" is all I'll say about that. You guys are awesome, highly recommend starting from sundowning album and going through this place will become your tomb, then finishing take me back to eden, namely Euclid as it wraps up the trilogy in the most beautiful way with so many callbacks, an amazing song standalone but legendary with knowledge from the first 2 albums as well.
i see other people already pointed out the "half algorithm mistake" but there was another one where they say "blissful language" but the correct lyric is "blissful anguish" "Who made you like this? Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language? Synapses snap back in blissful anguish"
I really enjoy how you 2 try to decipher Vessels lyrics. The way you hear it differs from the way I hear it at times. There have been a couple times I had to stop and thing because I didn't think about it the way you 2 do. Would love to see you both just react to the entire album. Take me back to eden is a masterpiece in its entirety. Another great song for you to react to is Bloodsport.
Yall need to start dipping into the back catalog. Higher, The Offering, Sugar, Hypnosis, The Love You Want, Bloodsport from the room below, Levitate, Missing Limbs. There’s not a bad song from these guys. Vessel is a rare type of musical genius.
I think this song is actually about our disconnection with each other and the advent of social media our inability to grapple with it appropriately. Diamonds in the trees are cell phone towers pentagrams in the night sky are satellites flying over. The cell phone towers are kinda a nod to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. We eat so much information. The possibility of stardom to monetize our social profiles profilicity. The pentagrams are stars of dark worship. I don’t anything he writes about is merely personal he’s talking about humanity as such
@@UncleTrebor I think the whole sleep token project is not about any personal relationship. I think it’s probably inspired by relationship. But I think vessel is getting at something far greater and deeper. It’s about humanity. It’s about things we’ve forgotten our lost touch with. It’s a very existential drama
I really like how much you guys go into the lyrics and music. It’s only been like 2 minutes in and knowing how the song goes and what it builds to and the message, I can only thank the world that there are more minds out there like mines and a few others I’ve met. Makes me excited for the years to come with my kids and what we might be Abel to share together in.
It is really exciting! I'm excited for your journey with your kids. I'm glad that we are able to convey that through these videos. You seem to already be on your way to being a great father! Thanks for the support
@@UncleTrebor thanks a lot. Means a lot to have engagement with yoru viewers and fans. I actually showed my kids some of sleep token today and they really like the heavy parts lol but in time as they grow they will surprise me with their perspectives on life. See you in the next one.
Great reaction again, guys! Some of the lyrics in this video are incorrect. I see someone has pointed out one incorrect lyric already, but another one is "Synapses snap back in blissful anguish" and not "blissful language." There are a few lyric videos with incorrect lyrics as none of them are official videos produced by the band. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️
Really cool reaction and very interesting nuanced conversation about the lyrics of this song guys! However IF I MAY SUGGEST for future reactions it may be better to just listen to the audio and have a more accurate source for the lyrics pulled up to the side - some of these lyric videos are incorrect and while thats no fault of your own at all looking at accurate lyrics is going to give sooo much more depth to ST in particular. I've been here since the release of Sundowning and theres so so much to explore with this band, its lore, and the way lyrics layer across albums and the EPs/single releases to paint a pretty broad picture of abuse, grief, denial, acceptance, and growth. Very cool journey to embark on if you so choose!
I never comment on videos. Apart from loving all Sleep Token songs, I loved watching you guys emphasising on lyrics and their meaning (even if some of them were wrong here). I also wished I could react to stuff like this with my dad! So its warms my heart! Keep it up!
That lyric video is actually a little inaccurate. It's "Half algorithm, half deity Glitches in the portal Gaps in a strange dream" But yeah, this song is amazing, it's a whole vibe. I subbed yesterday because I like the way you guys think about the lyrics in ST's music. If you can, I'd love to see y'all check out some of their older stuff too. Their song "Dark Signs" is a banger. Much love from Missouri!
The live is perfectly gutting. He cries, and you can just feel the tension snap when he lets loose with those screams. I don’t care how many times I've watched those performance, they still crush me.
There are previous works that explain who she is. Guessing his future and mapping onto her fantasy was about becoming famous. In Take me back to Eden he tells her he’ll take a pound of her flesh before she takes a piece of his pay stub. It’s more understandable when you go back to the ep’s then singles then albums. It’s a story but if ya don’t know then you start at the wrong place and are like what’s going on. I also believe she had a drinking problem, I seem to be one of the few that picks up on it as far as I have read in comments. I love your analysis, top notch
Another thing the line "be the first to the feast let's choke on the past" brings to mind is the royal taste tester. In medieval times the royal taste tester always ate first to make sure the food wasn't poisoned. If it was, he would die and the king would still be safe.
People already have mentioned but this lyric video got it wrong in ways it sort of ruins it a little. Not saying you should redo the reaction but for sure read the correct ones. Great videos, as a daughter of composer/musician and painter parents, we too listen to music together and it's really nice seeing others do the same :D My mom (70 y/o) loves these guys and concidered flying abroad with us (me and my sister) to see them in england, and shows them to all her friends, who are a little more sceptical because they're just not as cool as my mom. P.s, love this rabbithole. Am I right to assume your son hasn't heard all of the songs yet? Because.... ALKALINE!!!!!!! The rhyme scheme goes on forever in that song. And RAIN, ooooh and chokehold. Well shit, tbh most songs have great lyricasl themes.
Loving the reactions guys!!! Gonna drop a follow in a min. Shout out from Ireland though 🇮🇪 can I please request a reaction to a few sleep token songs. Hope you don’t mind. The offering, rain, the summoning, Atlantic, hypnosis and bloodsport. Please thanks 🙏🏻
"Tell me you met me in past lives, past lie, past what might be eating me from the inside" Love your videos. Unfortunately whoever made the lyric video messed up quite a few times. Your breakdowns are amazing though
Actually Sleep tokens music IS in fact chronological. At least in terms of their albums. This is the third and final album in the trilogy. So the last song is a wrap up of the story. So yeah you really should listen to Sleep tokens music in order. WORSHIP
@UncleTrebor As a viewer of many RUclips channels, it's very heartwarming and cool when a channel takes your genuine advice. I'm new to your channel but I'm now a forever subscriber!
Commenting for the algorithm, You probabaly already know this, most of the songs in Take Me back to Eden album reference "old" songs from the Offering Album. If you're done with this one, you may move onto that and link them up. Just a suggestion.
If you look into the lore of Sleep Token I felt like he was talking to the God which is Sleep and this is him speaking to her. That's just my personal view of it but its one of those little details I've been following for a while 😂
I think im going to wait to read the lore until after we're done. I am finding so much for my personal life in this right now, so I need it in my perspective first... But I am going to get to it. Thanks for the support!
Whoever made the lyric video made a boo-boo, should be "who encrypted your dark gospel IN body language"... provides a new level of stuff to think about when you get the right words.😂
Oh thats changes the whole lyric!!! That dark gospel part makes much more sense now. Its the gospel that your body language is speaking and that mf'er is DARK! Did the encryption make it dark or was it already dark???
@UncleTrebor I took the approach of interpreting the song as one dealing with their own inner demons, possibly caused by some sort of traumatic experience (abuse, war, poverty, etc). Who made you like this, who did it, Encrypting dark gospel in body language, hiding the battles within through a false outward appearance.
Knowing the lore, Euclid was just amazing. “Fall for Me” (music video) destroyed me. So emotional on so many levels. Kyle from Ryker Roads said it best about that song “it’s like therapy”.
I'm at 4:53 and your son said sounds like sweet pain. The words are wrong on this video it's actually not blissful language, but Blissful Anguish. 😊 So... Right on
Every time I hear that first movement in the song, I always ask, “Did we just have sex?” It’s so sultry. I understand why my wife swoons over this band. Vessel’s not even trying to pull the poon, but it’s sure getting thrown at him at every show. 😂
Yall should play the original music videos and then just pull up the lyrics on the side. These lyric videos are wrong alot of times. And Vessel writes this worship in a way that you need to hear his original words. WORSHIP
Yeah I wish the people who make these lyrical videos would actually pull up the correct lyrics before creating content that is incorrect. You loose so much perspective on the lyrics when they are wrong. SMH you might pull up the lyrics separately just to verify so you might understand better. I love your reaction videos and the fact that you really analyze and try to dissect the meanings with your son. Sleep token lyrics are so deep it takes me a couple times of listening and sometimes actually reading the lyrics myself to really understand them but I love that so much so I only want more. Food for my soul. Thank you for reactions
This breakdown although very long tells a different interesting story/take in all 3 albums song by song. Would love to see your thoughts on it. ruclips.net/video/mDWpw0NKH1g/видео.htmlsi=nqhTnMiSeLbanwT5
We really appreciate that! We are going to try our very best and stay away from the lore and explanations so that we can bring you the freshest perspective we can. Everyone seems to be saying the same things...
Respect to keeping it real. Appreciate your different unique approach of lyric breakdowns to show the simpler minded such as myself for interpretation and understanding of what is being said
Journey down Sleep Token Lore, its real interesting. This is about a dream or 2 or 3 with The Godess Sleep Diety, He is fighting thru. Sorry im not very good at explaining only at taking info in, but The Lore And Aneminity of Sleep Token and Vessel(Lead singer) is so very enlightening, scary and beautiful 🤘🫶
I believe it’s “half algorithm half deity, glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream” it’s not your fault the lyric video was wrong but to me that makes the lyrics that much more dope
Yeah and the line before is "Synapses snap back in blissful anguish" not Language
Yeah there's a lot of glitches in the code in these lyrics 😂
Screwed us on that video! Thanks for watching
LICHES IN THE COLD LOL
I think them not releasing lyrics is so we have different Interpretations
Half algorithm half deity
Lyric video screwed us there! Thanks for watching
@@UncleTrebor Also believe that its "synapses snap back in blissful anguish" not "language" repeated. Like part of him enjoys the pain that being around this person inflicts upon him at the same time as wishing that they weren't like this...
😂😂😂
...and glitches in the code not cold 🙃
@@UncleTrebor Seems like you got screwed a few times there
Well, I know what you want from me
You want someone to be
Your reflection, your bitter deception
Setting you free
So you take what you want and leave
Who made you like this?
Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language?
Synapses snap back in blissful anguish
Tell me you met me in past lives, past life
Past what might be eating me from the inside, darling
Half algorithm, half deity
Glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream
Tell me you guessed my future and it mapped onto your fantasy
Turn me into your mannequin and I'll turn you into my puppet queen
Won't you come and dance in the dark with me?
Show me what you are, I am desperate to know
Nobody better than the perfect enemy
Digital demons make the night feel heavenly
Make it real
'Cause anything's better than the way I feel right now
I can offer you a blacklit paradise
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Lipstick, chemtrails, red flags, pink nails
With one eye on the door, other eye on a rail
Other, other eye following a scarlet trail
And the last few drops from the Holy Grail, now
Rose gold chains, ripped lace, cut glass
Blood stains on the collar, please, just don't ask
Be the first to the feast, let's choke on the past
And take to the broken skies at last
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky
You're gonna watch me ascend
And I know what you want from me
You want the same as me
My redemption, eternal ascension
Setting me free
So I'll take what I want then leave
You make me wish I could disappear, oh
You make me wish I could disappear
I love that you pay so much attention to the lyrics. Alot of reactors don't even mention the lyrics. The man is a magician with words. You feel them in your soul!❤

They are so vivid! Thanks for watching!
i see other people already pointed out the "half algorithm mistake" but there was another one where they say "blissful language" but the correct lyric is "blissful anguish"
"Who made you like this?
Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language?
Synapses snap back in blissful anguish"
Thanks for that! It wouldve made all the difference!
You've got yourself into a whole lot of heavy content with ST boys. 😂God lit!!!
Neck deep fam! 😅
I really enjoy how you 2 try to decipher Vessels lyrics. The way you hear it differs from the way I hear it at times. There have been a couple times I had to stop and thing because I didn't think about it the way you 2 do. Would love to see you both just react to the entire album. Take me back to eden is a masterpiece in its entirety. Another great song for you to react to is Bloodsport.
It's gonna have to happen! Thanks!
@@UncleTrebor can't wait!
Good lord, you guys effing nailed this! Breaking down the bars/lyrics was super dope. Thank you!
We really appreciate the support! Hope you ride the rest of the way with us
Great job boys, love the insight and unique perspective, check The Love You Want next 🙏🏼🔥
We will! Thanks for watching
i absolutely love how in-depth yall get with these break downs got me listening with a whole other mindset
Enlightenment on full brightness my guy!!
Loving the wisdom behind the lyrics that you guys share! 🙌🏼
We appreciate the support! More to come!
Yall need to start dipping into the back catalog. Higher, The Offering, Sugar, Hypnosis, The Love You Want, Bloodsport from the room below, Levitate, Missing Limbs. There’s not a bad song from these guys. Vessel is a rare type of musical genius.
It's gotta happen! Stay tuned!
Y’all go listen to the earlier work it will blow your mind how it’s all connected.
It's in the works! Thanks for the support!
I think this song is actually about our disconnection with each other and the advent of social media our inability to grapple with it appropriately. Diamonds in the trees are cell phone towers pentagrams in the night sky are satellites flying over. The cell phone towers are kinda a nod to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. We eat so much information. The possibility of stardom to monetize our social profiles profilicity. The pentagrams are stars of dark worship. I don’t anything he writes about is merely personal he’s talking about humanity as such
I see that! This song after doing the editing I really think there is much more to dive into... As so the case with probably all of them!
@@UncleTrebor I think the whole sleep token project is not about any personal relationship. I think it’s probably inspired by relationship. But I think vessel is getting at something far greater and deeper. It’s about humanity. It’s about things we’ve forgotten our lost touch with. It’s a very existential drama
I agree !!
…and just like that I’ve found yet ANOTHER interpretation of this line I’ve never seen before. ST’s lyricism is unbelievable.
New subscriber from the UK. I love how you're both breaking down the meanings of the lyrics x
Thanks from the US!
My man! You’re getting the message and sharing it with your son. Love it!
I really appreciate that! I'm loving the journey
I really like how much you guys go into the lyrics and music. It’s only been like 2 minutes in and knowing how the song goes and what it builds to and the message, I can only thank the world that there are more minds out there like mines and a few others I’ve met. Makes me excited for the years to come with my kids and what we might be Abel to share together in.
It is really exciting! I'm excited for your journey with your kids. I'm glad that we are able to convey that through these videos. You seem to already be on your way to being a great father! Thanks for the support
@@UncleTrebor thanks a lot. Means a lot to have engagement with yoru viewers and fans. I actually showed my kids some of sleep token today and they really like the heavy parts lol but in time as they grow they will surprise me with their perspectives on life. See you in the next one.
Great reaction again, guys! Some of the lyrics in this video are incorrect. I see someone has pointed out one incorrect lyric already, but another one is "Synapses snap back in blissful anguish" and not "blissful language." There are a few lyric videos with incorrect lyrics as none of them are official videos produced by the band. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️
Really cool reaction and very interesting nuanced conversation about the lyrics of this song guys! However IF I MAY SUGGEST for future reactions it may be better to just listen to the audio and have a more accurate source for the lyrics pulled up to the side - some of these lyric videos are incorrect and while thats no fault of your own at all looking at accurate lyrics is going to give sooo much more depth to ST in particular. I've been here since the release of Sundowning and theres so so much to explore with this band, its lore, and the way lyrics layer across albums and the EPs/single releases to paint a pretty broad picture of abuse, grief, denial, acceptance, and growth. Very cool journey to embark on if you so choose!
Definitely doing that going forward! It would have made all the difference!
Gotta do High Water!! All their songs are so good.
It's on deck now! Thanks for watching!
The constant head rub after leading up to and during the break is always great.
These lyrics and music!! It's much some times lol
I never comment on videos. Apart from loving all Sleep Token songs, I loved watching you guys emphasising on lyrics and their meaning (even if some of them were wrong here). I also wished I could react to stuff like this with my dad! So its warms my heart! Keep it up!
We really appreciate that! Your rare comment means a lot!
As a listener, who focuses on music/rhythm/etc, and has a hard time grasping the meaning in lyrics, I'm LOVING the lyrical analysis by y'all.
Glad to hear that! Thats what we're here for! Thanks for the support!
Love the look on your faces when the lyrics cut at your soul
Gotta recommendation for ya: Imminence
Got it down! Thanks for watching!
By far my favorite song by them followed by "Rain" and "Granite"
That lyric video is actually a little inaccurate. It's
"Half algorithm, half deity
Glitches in the portal
Gaps in a strange dream"
But yeah, this song is amazing, it's a whole vibe. I subbed yesterday because I like the way you guys think about the lyrics in ST's music. If you can, I'd love to see y'all check out some of their older stuff too. Their song "Dark Signs" is a banger. Much love from Missouri!
The live is perfectly gutting. He cries, and you can just feel the tension snap when he lets loose with those screams. I don’t care how many times I've watched those performance, they still crush me.
Seeing them live is definitely a must... Everything was already sold out by the time I saw they were coming here. ugh
There are previous works that explain who she is. Guessing his future and mapping onto her fantasy was about becoming famous. In Take me back to Eden he tells her he’ll take a pound of her flesh before she takes a piece of his pay stub. It’s more understandable when you go back to the ep’s then singles then albums. It’s a story but if ya don’t know then you start at the wrong place and are like what’s going on.
I also believe she had a drinking problem, I seem to be one of the few that picks up on it as far as I have read in comments.
I love your analysis, top notch
Can't wait to dive in!! Thanks for watching!
Another thing the line "be the first to the feast let's choke on the past" brings to mind is the royal taste tester. In medieval times the royal taste tester always ate first to make sure the food wasn't poisoned. If it was, he would die and the king would still be safe.
Oh dang!!! I didn't even think about that!!🔥
You’re awesome!
Salut from Russia!
We appreciate you!! Thanks for watching!
4:14 Now that you’ve listened to enough sleep token songs, it’s probably more accurate that they were like that before they were with him.
Yeah no doubt!!
People already have mentioned but this lyric video got it wrong in ways it sort of ruins it a little. Not saying you should redo the reaction but for sure read the correct ones. Great videos, as a daughter of composer/musician and painter parents, we too listen to music together and it's really nice seeing others do the same :D My mom (70 y/o) loves these guys and concidered flying abroad with us (me and my sister) to see them in england, and shows them to all her friends, who are a little more sceptical because they're just not as cool as my mom.
P.s, love this rabbithole. Am I right to assume your son hasn't heard all of the songs yet? Because.... ALKALINE!!!!!!! The rhyme scheme goes on forever in that song.
And RAIN, ooooh and chokehold. Well shit, tbh most songs have great lyricasl themes.
Thanks for this! I definitely want to travel with my kids for things like that too! GOALS
The Apparition next! 🤘🏼
It's in the edit queue!! 🙌🏾
The real you always shows itself in the dark
💯💯💯 Thanks for watching!
Loving the reactions guys!!! Gonna drop a follow in a min. Shout out from Ireland though 🇮🇪 can I please request a reaction to a few sleep token songs. Hope you don’t mind. The offering, rain, the summoning, Atlantic, hypnosis and bloodsport. Please thanks 🙏🏻
I see you’ve already done the summoning, my bad!!
Got your requests down!! Glad you are riding with us!
"Tell me you met me in past lives, past lie, past what might be eating me from the inside"
Love your videos. Unfortunately whoever made the lyric video messed up quite a few times.
Your breakdowns are amazing though
We were razzle dazzled! After these next few videos we finally wise up lol
Actually Sleep tokens music IS in fact chronological. At least in terms of their albums. This is the third and final album in the trilogy. So the last song is a wrap up of the story. So yeah you really should listen to Sleep tokens music in order.
WORSHIP
Done deal! Thanks for watching!
@UncleTrebor As a viewer of many RUclips channels, it's very heartwarming and cool when a channel takes your genuine advice. I'm new to your channel but I'm now a forever subscriber!
Would love to see you react to Rain, Fall For Me, Atlantic and Alkaline. Atlantic is probably my favorite song that's a non TMBTE song
Got'em down!! Thanks for watching!
AYYYY🔥🔥🔥
Commenting for the algorithm, You probabaly already know this, most of the songs in Take Me back to Eden album reference "old" songs from the Offering Album. If you're done with this one, you may move onto that and link them up. Just a suggestion.
The link up is real fam! We gotta do it!
The blacklit paradice comes from the band he was in "blacklit canopy" with the girl who the albums are about
Don't think the albums are about her tho
Speculaaaaaaation 😂 But please warn people to avoid looking up BC if they don’t want to know any identity spoilers for Vessel 👀
I'm definitely gonna check it out but i think i will wait and make it like a prequel after i go through the trilogy!
If you look into the lore of Sleep Token I felt like he was talking to the God which is Sleep and this is him speaking to her. That's just my personal view of it but its one of those little details I've been following for a while 😂
I think im going to wait to read the lore until after we're done. I am finding so much for my personal life in this right now, so I need it in my perspective first... But I am going to get to it. Thanks for the support!
Y’all ain’t ready for Are You Really Okay and Bloodsport lol
You're probably right... It's a lot LOL
Hes talking about his relationship with the godess Sleep
It's starting to come together now! Thanks!
10:03 it may be more he knew it was a trap said he changed for her but in the end she was still playing the same game
I def see that!!
Bro's bitrate got vaporized
LMAO! These long ass reactions about to vaporize my macbook! But its a must! Thanks for watching!
Vessels lyrics got so dark, it broke the feed. Lol
Thats what im calling it too! LOL
After this, listen to the Apparition. It belongs to Ascensionism.
We got you fam!
ruclips.net/video/mf4RuwChN3Q/видео.html
Oh definitely! It becomes a part of you. Dang that is good!
Whoever made the lyric video made a boo-boo, should be "who encrypted your dark gospel IN body language"... provides a new level of stuff to think about when you get the right words.😂
Oh thats changes the whole lyric!!! That dark gospel part makes much more sense now. Its the gospel that your body language is speaking and that mf'er is DARK! Did the encryption make it dark or was it already dark???
@UncleTrebor I took the approach of interpreting the song as one dealing with their own inner demons, possibly caused by some sort of traumatic experience (abuse, war, poverty, etc). Who made you like this, who did it, Encrypting dark gospel in body language, hiding the battles within through a false outward appearance.
Please do Jaws or Euclid. Euclid wrecked me.
Knowing the lore, Euclid was just amazing. “Fall for Me” (music video) destroyed me. So emotional on so many levels. Kyle from Ryker Roads said it best about that song “it’s like therapy”.
Got it on deck! Thanks for watching
I'm at 4:53 and your son said sounds like sweet pain. The words are wrong on this video it's actually not blissful language, but Blissful Anguish. 😊 So... Right on
Yeah he hit that! Thanks for watching!
Every time I hear that first movement in the song, I always ask, “Did we just have sex?” It’s so sultry. I understand why my wife swoons over this band. Vessel’s not even trying to pull the poon, but it’s sure getting thrown at him at every show. 😂
Bruh!!! How can we compete!! LMAO
@@UncleTrebor bruh, what do you think my sex playlist consists of. 😂
Just Vessel's isolated vocals! LOL
@@UncleTrebor 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yall should play the original music videos and then just pull up the lyrics on the side. These lyric videos are wrong alot of times. And Vessel writes this worship in a way that you need to hear his original words. WORSHIP
Our next recordings will defintiely be that way... Thanks for watching
Bloodsport from the room below. You won't regret it.
On deck fam! Thanks for watching!
Has anyone mentioned the “trilogy” to these gentz?
Yes we have def been informed! We're def gonna be bringing it back to the beginning
Idk how folks never edit the mistakes in these lyric videos.
You know... Would've helped us out a little! Thanks for watching!
Ugghhhh! It’s blissful anguish goddamnit these lyric videos. “Digital demons make the KNIFE feel heavenly” not night ffs
No fucking way!!!! Thats the first someone has corrected that lyric... What does that mean to you?
Yall oughta go back and hit up dark signs off of sundowning
I honestly thought the lyrics was in "blissful anguish " not "blissful language"
The consensus says you're right!
Yeah I wish the people who make these lyrical videos would actually pull up the correct lyrics before creating content that is incorrect. You loose so much perspective on the lyrics when they are wrong. SMH you might pull up the lyrics separately just to verify so you might understand better. I love your reaction videos and the fact that you really analyze and try to dissect the meanings with your son. Sleep token lyrics are so deep it takes me a couple times of listening and sometimes actually reading the lyrics myself to really understand them but I love that so much so I only want more. Food for my soul. Thank you for reactions
Look up the lyrics 1st because the lyric videos are wrong all the time.
If you ever decide to listen to all of the music, start at rhe beginning.❤❤❤
Done! Thanks for watching!
These guys are awesome... minus being a actual cult. lol
LOL I haven't looked into it, but I mean... I wouldn't be surprised!
This breakdown although very long tells a different interesting story/take in all 3 albums song by song. Would love to see your thoughts on it.
ruclips.net/video/mDWpw0NKH1g/видео.htmlsi=nqhTnMiSeLbanwT5
We really appreciate that! We are going to try our very best and stay away from the lore and explanations so that we can bring you the freshest perspective we can. Everyone seems to be saying the same things...
Respect to keeping it real. Appreciate your different unique approach of lyric breakdowns to show the simpler minded such as myself for interpretation and understanding of what is being said
The lyrics of the video are so wrong
Caught us sleeping LOL
Some of this lyrics are wrong.
holy pause champ, made it 5 min before I quit..
I feel that! Thats why the title says "Speechless!" Thanks for watching!
Blissful anguish not language. This videos lyrics are too off
Yeah they got us interpreting all wrong!
Their three albums ( the trilogy) explains all of it.
Journey down Sleep Token Lore, its real interesting. This is about a dream or 2 or 3 with The Godess Sleep Diety, He is fighting thru. Sorry im not very good at explaining only at taking info in, but The Lore And Aneminity of Sleep Token and Vessel(Lead singer) is so very enlightening, scary and beautiful 🤘🫶
