Old Composer REACTS to Sleep Token The Offering | Composition Reaction and Breakdown
Sleep Token reactions
Basick Records, Spinefarm Records
I would pay money to relive the very first time I heard Sleep Token
I heard them for the first time supporting Architects last week. Amazing live and I've sort of been hooked on them ever since. I can't say I love every song, but I find them a really fascinating band and their musicianship is next level.
Me too.
next best thing is to just cry lol.
Me too.
next best thing is to just cry lol.
Do DMT, a month later, listen again. It'd probably bring tears to your eyes. Did for me with leprous.
Emotions encapsulated.
Sleep Token has to be one of the greatest musical discoveries I made last year. The whole Sundowning album is a masterpiece from front to back. Worship!
So did you totally love the new album?!
@@highandtight5544 I did 😁 everything they put out from the early singles to the new album has been phenomenal. I have their discography on repeat 😌
@@ZL1LoVeR Hard to believe they've only done two albums! Off to see them live next week :)
@@careywolfe4559 Enjoy!! Worship 🙌🏽
I just found them last month!! Best discovery since Bilmuri!!! Worship!!
One of the best bands on the planet.
Songs “higher” and “dark signs” are a must check out
Dark Signs is way underappreciated, such a great song
I agree! Higher is my favorite from new album
Higher, Dark Signs, and Nazareth would be my picks
@@ImAllTimeIndie Nazareth is probably my favorite of theirs
Higher is my favorite track
man I love Sleep Token. I know the most immediate thing people notice is the vocals and his incredible range but I am just enamored with the drumming on this record. The dude is an absolute beast.
say thanks to george lever he mix the album
The only thing about them being anonymous is I can't find out who this drummer is. I LOVE the drumming on this album
To anybody who is wondering...I saw somebody who seemed pretty sure of themselves claim on another video of theirs that the drummer was a guy by the name of Adam Pedder?
@@fuckmylife4403 ya I came across a drum playthrough yesterday and then started researching the producer and he knows his stuff
Between his voice and his lyrics, the band is unmatched
Liked the video before it even started.
Would love to see you breakdown Aviations - Outliers
I love how you watch all the other reaction channels - a true fan.
Shoutout Birb for supporting other channels while also supporting talented unknown bands 🙏🏽
@@JuanTheDjent Haha well Key Of Geebz is fantastic man. Genuine easy going guy that breakdowns the music so well that doesn't come across as egotistical but instead very educational. Also his selection in music has been 👌🏼
@@METALBIRB couldn't agree more! Loving his work and the way that he really listens and takes it all in. I was gonna suggest some tracks but I think he's doing pretty well without my "help"!
@@METALBIRB right dude! He’s checked out Rivers of Nihil, Deftones, Tool, Spiritbox, and now Sleep Token? He’s being led the right path my guy
Idk how this was brought to your attention, but this is one pleasant surprise. One of my favorite bands and are so underrated. So many of their songs sound so different from on if another. Thank you so much for this!🖤
Spiritbox and Sleep Token were my favourite finds of 2020.
Seriously, Sleep Token deserves a reaction to basically every song they have made lol.
@@randyeppyt same here. Dance Gavin dance I recently got behind. Their new stuff just kills
FYI, engineer behind this album is George Lever, he's got his YT channel, you might want to have a look what he's putting out there.
and in turn check out Loathe, one of the bands he's most famous for working with. Their album I Let It In And It Took Everything is so good.
@@7MNDmusic ILIIAITE is 2020 AOTY for me, so good
What exactly does a producer do? I thought the musicians are the ones that compose the songs? I know that a Mixer has to compress the audio to fit onto tapes and stuff
@@Jalanko13 okay so a producer is basically just there to help write them and show different things they could do to make the song better. Basically a co-writer and a new set of eyes/ears. Sometimes the producer will also engineer the session and all that.
Mixing it is basically just making everything cohesive and have each track work with one another at its simplest level.
@@Jalanko13 basically a producer brings the artists in and helps get a good sound from various instruments, what processing to use and when, and make everything fit together and not sound like a jumbled mess (even though some bands want that)
Vessel (the singers character name) is such an amazing singer. please do yourself the favor of going down the rabbit hole and listening to all their songs. i promise you'll never lose the chicken skin while listening
you mean vessel 1? :)
AGREED!
Worship! Please do more Sleep Token. Just all of it, if you'd like. There's no bad song.
Completely agree. One of my favorite discoveries from last year. Quickly became a favorite band.
@@cmote78 I'm just starting... Any recommendations?
@@dansourile5444 Blood Sport is their Magnum Opus. That or The Night Does Not Belong to God.
@@joshuakram are they relatively new? I'm only seeing one LP I think? Or am I way off.
I'll check out those tracks tonight! Thanks!
@@dansourile5444 they only have one full length album and a bunch of singles
“Jaws” or “Higher” by the band Sleep Token 😊
They have a very short discography since they were formed 2016. 2 very short EPs, and their debut album Sundowning that this song “The Offering” comes from. Always thought they had a fusion of Bastile meets Deftones. Crazy talented band🖤
I am convinced this is the singer from Bastille.
@@bcgbrad5650 It does very much sound like Dan Smith, for sure.
@@bcgbrad5650 100% is not
@@Widetrackband can confirm.
@@bcgbrad5650 that's the general assumption, but can confirm, Vessel is quite an unknown artist.
(glad it wasn't a millionaire that put on a mask)
George Lever, the engineer for this album, also engineered one of the most refreshing up and coming metal albums from last year by a band called Loathe. I recommend the song the song Aggressive Evolution for a good overall representation of their sound, Is It Really You? for more ambience, and Gored for a heavier sound. They also just released an ambient album a couple of weeks ago, which is super cool.
Wasn't aware of that, thanks!
the ambient album is sick
ILIIAITE was my favourite album last year. Loathe was new to me in late 2019, such a great band.
I heard Loathe live when they opened for Rolo Tomassi. Sick and beautiful show. They are awesome. I love Aggressive Evolution. Maybe "Dancing on my skin" or "White Hot" would be as much as appropriate
@@riccardocravero3614 I agree with both of those. Not enough people have listened to their back catalogue after finding them. I am so jealous of that lineup, Rolo Tomassi is another amazing and underrated band, especially over here in the states
New Day by Karnivool, it's class.
The breakdown in this song is so fucking hard.
man I'm a sucker for hard but groovy ending breakdowns. The drums on this track are absolutely STELLAR
Bruh, seriously? Sleep Token? Fuck yeah! Worship. You have done an excellent job at taking recommendations from your audience, keep it up!
One of my favorite bands right now. the drummer is a beast.
Slice The Cake - Stone And Silver Part 1 - The Mountains of Man!
great choice!
a person of culture i see
Anything off of Odyssey tbh ❤️
Amazing choice!!!
Could see your composer's brain really digging the last drop and outro riffs 🔥
Sleep Token is the only band that I've associated with the word " Otherworldly " Best band I've ever had the pleasure of listening to and I can't wait till it's safe to see them live! Worship!
“Jaws” by Sleep Token is really cool too!
Yes love this song! It's a musical masterpiece!
the intro is really neat
The album is a musical masterpiece as well.
George Lever is among the best producers in metal right now. He also produced all of Loathe's stuff. Incredible engineer, mixer, and producer in general.
yep
A Perfect Circle: Orestes, Rose, Blue, The Noose, Pet, Brena, Magdalena, The Contrarian, Disillusioned, Hourglass
Good choice! This band deserves the attention with such a unique blend of vocal style and modern heavy instrumental
Calcutta is an incredible song by them and it's a journey. I'd highly recommend checking that one out!
Their stage presence and their performance live is absolutely breath taking too. It'd be cool to see you react to a live version of The Offering too!
The live version of ‘The Offering’ is essential as well because Vessel (the singer) does this amazing vocalization during the outro that it I personally think is really missed when listening to the studio version.
Calcutta was the song that turned me on to this band a couple of years ago, fully recommended
Yeah that Calcutta melody when he says “Say your name” is just perfect
Calcutta is one of my faves it's so beautiful and heartbreaking but beautiful and emotional.
This channel has introduced me to over a dozen great songs, so far
Sleep Token is such a banger of a band. Their range has always given me chills. Even now when the song started, I'm getting chills.
I'd definitely say listen to Sleep Token - The Way That You Were. That's my all time favorite song by them, and it's so damn hauntingly beautiful.
YESSSSS! Did NOT expect you to be reacting to one of my favourite bands of all time
Nice one .. new band for me .. kudos to whoever requested this. Loving this track will be buying the album. Thanks
Sleep Token is probably one of the best discoveries I've had in the last couple years. I came across them via recommended on my Google Play Music (RIP) at the end of 2019. I was at the end of my shift at work, just winding the day down, and I played the first couple tracks from the album, including this one. I immediately added the album to my library and jammed it on the drive home. I probably listened to the whole album something like 30 times over the next couple weeks, between driving, at home, or when I could at work.
Definitely Recommend Higher, Take Aim, or Bloodsport, Jaws, or Thread the Needle as something else to react to from Sleep Token.
Suggestions:
Slice The Cake - Stone And Silver Part 1 - The Mountains of Man
Textures - Awake
Slice The Cake - Unending Waltz
Slice The Cake - Westward Bound Part I - The Lantern
Dance Gavin Dance - Blue Dream
Emarosa - The Past Should Stay Dead
Slipknot - Vermilion
Yes Textures needs some love!!
all bangers
Jeeze how about you just recommend all my favorite songs LOL
Glad to see you check out some Sleep Token. Every song by them is an emotional journey
Yes! Sleep token are amazing!! Thank you
im not sure whos on drums with this but holy fuck man
gives me matt garska/matt halpern vibes
Baard Kolstad?
They just released a new album a few weeks back and in some of the songs the drummer is just unleashed on the track. Atlantic is one such song.
Check out the track "Hypnosis"
Love me some Sleep Token. Amazing vocalist
Sleep Token! YES! I LOVE their music!
Everything that vessel speaks is perfect. Worship
YEEESSSS!!! Been waiting for this! Next ones should be Higher and Jaws
Sleep token is killing it and have so much potential. Can't wait for new tunes from them.
Their whole album is an ABSOLUTE BLAST to listen to! It's perfect and was my favorite release of the year
This song hits EVERYTIME, goozebumps all over
WORSHIP
I love that you got the "chicken skins" 😂
Sleep Token are easily one of my favorite new bands and I really appreciated your de-composition of their unique sound. Thank you!
So so so happy you got round to sleep token! Their whole album Sundowning is INCREDIBLE
You are gonna love Vola!
My favorite current artist Scarypoolparty turned me onto Sleep Token. I love the way they combine super pretty melodies and vocals with some flashes of harsh guitars and drums.
Still here! Thanks for turning me on to this band.
Lydia by Highly suspect
Gotta do Jaws, it's what made me fall in love with Sleep Token. Worship.
Yes!
I really hope you do more Sleep Token. They’re the most underrated band going right now. WORSHIP
fucking hell i clicked SO fast on this vid, SWEEHEET
This is something maybe a bit more obscure:
Chelsea Wolfe: "Deranged for Rock & Roll" or "After the fall"
Absolutely, or maybe "Be All Things". For a complete "chicken skin" experience there is "Carillon Flowers". Love it.
Omg yes there is so much awesome Chelsea Wolfe to choose from. She has so many different styles and also emma Ruth rundle is brilliant and lingua ignota
God I'm so glad this one was done way back before they blew up. Coming back to see you describe the unconscious hook, my brain exploded a bit, because it was something I picked up on through most of their music. It's incredible.
Vessel's voice is so beautiful, and really like no other. Plz do more of their work, your analysis was great!
Storm Corrosion by Storm Corrosion! A side project featuring Mikael Akerfeldt of Opeth and Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree. Very cool song, eerie.
Yikes, a nazi
Per the instructions in your 30 days video, commenting here to suggest any of these by Sleep Token: Higher, Blood Sport, Jaws, High Water, Hypnosis, Alkaline, Atlantic - heck, Geebz, pick anything in the catalog because it’s all amazing. Thanks for the opportunity, and congrats on approaching the milestone!
Best new band of 2019 (I know they have EPs and singles back to 2016, but the Sundowning album cycle is when they really started marketing and getting their much deserved attention), feel if COVID hadn't happened they'd end up on tour opening for someone and hit it big last year. Sleep Token is something REALLY special. Check out the stripped back version of Blood Sport or their cover of Hey Ya to get a true sense of their depth.
Never thought you’d be reviewing sleep token. 🤘🏻
Honestly one of the best bands I've seen live. This band is phenomenal. I'm glad you enjoyed I honestly love all their stuff check out literally anything, both EPs and the full lengths are all great!
First time across your channel. Loved this and loved reading your reaction in real time. Really enjoyable watching that experience!
The drums on this song go SO hard
Phwoar that was great. Had to come back to hear you speak cos I wasn't pausing that song.
This track was a trip. Loved the journey of it. Sleep Token is certainly one of the bands I wouldn't have heard, had it not been for your channel.
Thank you so much for finding Sleep Token!
I saw them live in Knoxville TN during 2022, and it was a core memory for me. So, so, SO beautiful. I cried during "the love you want," I'll never ever forget that night. I hope they come to Knoxville for a headlining tour!!
everything they put out is amazing. Will Ramos vocal cover of Hypnotize is amazing.
I hate that I can't tell you this mans name. He is someone who absolutely will give you chills
He is Vessel. Worship. The journey there is part of the fun.
This song made me cry. Beautiful.
sleep token has actually just replaced 10,000 days as my #1 with this album. i’m suggesting you do the whole deluxe album, you will not regret this. this album is so moving , give higher or blood sport a shot :)
Oh hell no!!!
Lol kidding
Day 12 of asking to review FAIR TO MIDLAND - "The Greener Grass" is their most polished song, so I'd recommend that. You don't need to listen to the whole thing, just to 8:30.
I absolutely adore walls of jericho
I agree with this request one of the best bands to never get a big break
ftm is one of my all time favs. cannot agree more.
Probably my favorite song from one of my all time favorite bands.
Sleep Token are such an awesome band. As everyone has said there is no bad song and they are quite diverse. Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on their cover of "I wanna dance with somebody" by Whitney Houston as you might already know the original arrangement so would be fun to hear you decompose the contrasting styles.
I am SO HAPPY you have finally come to Sleep Token!!!!!
WORSHIP!
Sleep Token is such a unique band and I absolutely love them. "Sugar" is perhaps my fav song from the album after "The Offering" it is such a quirky and unique song even for Sleep Token :)
Two biggest things about this band!
1. All the members are anonymous and the lead singer goes by Vessel.
2. Basically every song of theirs sounds completely different. This is one of their most heavy songs next to Gods, but yeah they span so many genres. Dark Signs, Blood Sport, and Give are top notch!

@@bobbiesmith1812 ssshhhh
@@bobbiesmith1812 shush your mouth
Never listened to these dudes, pretty rad.
They have such a groove! And those vocals!!!!!
Thank you for finally tackling them, my first quest is complete! The Offering was a good pick, I would say it’s my second favourite by them. Next you’ll have to do “Say That You Will”, which is their magnum opus in my opinion.
opening subconscious hook! i love it.
Idk why but I love watching him think while he's listening to music.
was about to request this one. awesome. that drummer is killer.
Amazing to see Sleep Token on here! I'd say check out Dark Signs or Blood Sport next.
Loathe - "new faces in the dark" next!!
Woke up today to a few new ones from you! Hope you got some sleep! Excited for this!
Thank you.
Sincerely, thank you, sir, for you do on this channel
Saw Sleep Token live in Phx in 2019 at The Pressroom. They opened with "The Offering". Such an Amazing Set.
I love this dude haha, pure reaction. I remember 3 years ago hearing this and man nothing can come close to that feeling it encompassed me for a whole week I think
I love the way you breakdown the songs. Like what you like in the production and what you think is neat.
So cool to see you checking out sleep token. They have some great songs! Thanks for sharing 🤘
Damn I'm so happy right now. I could rattle off many bands but you've now hit all the ones I'd like you to do most, so I'll just sit here enjoying this ride and excited for the next times you get around to Caligulas Horse and Sleep Token again!
FINALLY! Knew the chix skin would be here too! Tell me what isn't a breath of fresh air!
"Jaws" and "Nazareth" anything fun them is amazing! 💜👍🙌 Thx a million for getting to them ✌️
Also, the guitar used in the recording is an Ibanez M8, with a single Lundgren M8 (bridge) pickup. That's ALOT of the unique sounding guitar tone you're hearing. That pickup produces an amazingly unique sound. Frederik Thordendal, Meshuggah's signature pickup.
Thank you so much for doing these videos! I learn so much from your breakdowns of the songs I love. Clicking subscribe now!
It was a privilege to discover this band live in Seattle. They can really put on a show
Oh god, I'm so jealous.
You should check out all their songs but Calcutta, Higher, Gods, Drag Me Under and Bloodsport are probably highlight how diverse their style is and how passionate they are, especially Vessel, the singer
Very cool man, thanks! Wouldn't have heard of these guys without this.
Great selection, you really enjoy doing these decompositions and it shows. Keep giving us your thoughts and we'll keep coming back to hear them.
Never heard of them. This song was rad.
Best band I've discovered in the last few years. Worship
About time they start getting the attention they deserve.
Worship.
Love the video! Consider Loathe in the future for a similar sounding band
I liked this track, I included it in my library. In fact listening to this particular track led to my discovery of your channel🙏
This band was a bit of an acquired taste for me, but I've really started to dig them lately. Do Lucid Planet - Organic Hard Drive!
Loved this video! Great band and your breakdown is fantastic. I learned a load!
Excellent comments and video! Such an amazing band. Best show I saw in 2019. They are completely anonymous. There’s no talking between songs when they play live. Best singer and drummer going right now, in my opinion. Those two write and perform everything on their albums, and they get other musicians to perform bass and guitar parts live, while the keyboards and vocal harmonies are backing tracks. ‘Jaws’ is the one that grabbed me initially, but seriously, every song is fantastic. There’s a video of their singer performing their song ‘Blood Sport’ on piano, and that is fantastic as well. Looking forward to more reactions of these guys!
