I think Sleep Token smartly adds these genre bending flavors so you can listen and it not get stale. These three singles are so uniquely different that it doesn’t burn you out.
I think this song is a better INTRO to Sleep Token than The Summoning and Chokehold imo so I feel like this single was made for maybe non-fans a little more than the fans? on top of the sound, the length is PERFECT for the radio and this can easily be put on a pop station or pop playlist and bring so many new people into the fold. This album is 3/3 bangers and I'm so happy to have found them!! Worship
I feel like this one has more replay value than the previous singles. I think this kind of combines great flow with a surprise (kind of) twist at the end. Overall I like this one the most. Also, that synth sound/line is a call back to Say That You Will off of Sundowning, which makes me appreciate it a lot more.
I really hope people can start appreciating the BUILDS this band gives us. It's not always about riffs and heavy tracks. The art of the build in a song is sometimes lost but Sleep Token deliver it in spades.
For me it's already up there in my top 3 AOTY lol and the whole album is not even out now hahaha, probably the album when it's out will be on 1st place but who knows what's coming in this year i mean it's just the beginning of the year, I'm stoked anyway tho! Love sleep token:))
I didn't think they could make a song I liked more than the Summoning, but this song is just pure sexy vibing. So well done, I love how they effortlessly own any genre.
I only recently got turned on to Sleep Token And this song is where the obsession began I'm very eclectic with my musical tastes and really into dark R and B So when I heard this song I vibed so hard I have since been going down the rabbit hole and ST in a matter of weeks has become my favorite band They just pull off mixtures and fusions of style/sounds /genres that should be impossible flawlessly. Really enjoyed your reaction and perspective on this one
It's hard to compare such bangers like these singles, but surprisingly I found myself more excited during the first listening of Granite, rather than the other two.
When they release tracks like they have thus far, I can't shake the feeling that they're at the dawn of a massive blow-up in renown. Talent like this can only be denied or hide for so long and these new tracks are tight, polished, mature, catchy as hell, and can appeal to a wide range of tastes. That's not at all to say that they haven't produced music that I'd describe the exact same way in the past, because they absolutely have across the board - there's just an intangible something I can't put my finger on that feels different about these new offerings and whatever it is, it's wonderful. I really hope this album propels them to the status they deserve.
This looks a lot more like a part of a conceptual album, which is why it doesn't stand out as much as "Chokehold" or "The Summoning". However, it remains very much in sync with what we have been offered thus far, and I am increasingly excited about the album. Thus, even though "Granite" is not likely to wow anyone, it feels like an essential building block for the album.
Honestly, my initial reaction was the same as yours. I thought it sounded so much like Dark Signs, but after a few listens in, I now think that it has the the arpeggiated plucky synths of Sugar, but with the darker and subdued atmosphere of Dark Signs. The ending also makes me think like if High Water had a baby with Alkaline with some Levitate influences there. Good track overall, and I honestly love it so much. Chokehold had a bit of thall in there, The Summoning had some riffs that made me think of Allt, and now this is one is Dark Signs with some Sugar, Levitate, and other influences. And I'm loving it all so far! I can't wait for Take Me Back To Eden to drop. Worship.
The characters are his religious deities. It’s based on an old runic religion that worshipped a polytheistic ideal. His main deity is known as Sleep, hence his little notes and hints of death and slumber. This isn’t just music, it’s worship 🖤🖤😴
Granite is so much like Sugar from Sundowning. If you had to pick one song with Pop appeal so far, one that could garner Radio play, it would be this song.
I’m pretty sure the guitars are in Drop B0. I think that’s the lowest note. It at least pitch shifts to that but it’s so low at this point that it’s hard to tell.
Anybody else feel like this is a Dark Signs meets Nazareth vibe? (Dark signs for the general groove and bass undertones but Nazareth for the breakdown and buildup
Its weird youre hyping this more than you did the Bad Omens releases though. I think they were more "revolutionary" in terms of their sound, but of course there's a discussion about whether you liked the sound or not.
I wouldn't consider these two equal, then again I always loved Sleep Token a lot more than Bad Omens, even if the latter is still very good in my eyes.
Now I want a Sleep Token/Bad Omens tour... Can you imagine THE VIBES?
Considering I discovered Sleep Token through Noah Sebastian, FUCK YES I WOULD LOVE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. Worship 🖤
@@LovelyLunarian Imagine a JUST PRETEND cover by Vessel... That would be sick!
You don’t understand how much I would pay to see that show
This would be amazing 🤩
@@LovelyLunarian saaame, saw his twitch streams during 2020 and he would mention them

Update: Now 4 singles already hahah, love this band :))

I agree 100%
I agree but I also think that fans are definitely eating this up and loving it, I definitely do
But I also wanna hear the whole thing in context
I agree to this
I LOVE the little snap in the breakdown. its so satisfying
Peak ear candy, this whole song
@@GrizzyGoat fr everything about it is just so pleasing
Check Loathe - Dimourphous Display for another very satisfying snap 🫰
@@TheErazar Loathe are incredible
Another good snap breakdown is in Brannmarkt by Vildhjarta. Gave me whiplash the first time I heard it.
Sugar: Part 2🔥🤘🏼🔥
My exact thoughts about it... and I love Sugar, so I love this too hahahah
@@pedropessoa2246 couldn’t agree more, love it!🤘🏼
Sugar Part 3 actually, since Like That is sort of part 2
I didn't like sugar when Sundowning came out, but I think that now I'm more into sleep token's sound that sugar is definitely going to start hitting
Not really, it's more similar to High Water or Dark Signs
I feel like this one has more replay value than the previous singles. I think this kind of combines great flow with a surprise (kind of) twist at the end. Overall I like this one the most.
Also, that synth sound/line is a call back to Say That You Will off of Sundowning, which makes me appreciate it a lot more.
Now that I've read the comment I can't un-hear it. Nice catch
This track has the most lyrical value also
I’ve literally had this song on repeat since it came out lmao
I really thought of a callback to sugar once I heard the first notes
R&B with REALLY low tuned guitars. I absolutely love it!
When I saw it live the other night that's the first thing I said, the low tuning nearly melted my face and it was glorious
I really hope people can start appreciating the BUILDS this band gives us. It's not always about riffs and heavy tracks. The art of the build in a song is sometimes lost but Sleep Token deliver it in spades.
I strongly feel we have an AOTY on our hands when this album drops
Its not even a feeling , take me back to Eden Will be the álbum of the year.
For me it's already up there in my top 3 AOTY lol and the whole album is not even out now hahaha, probably the album when it's out will be on 1st place but who knows what's coming in this year i mean it's just the beginning of the year, I'm stoked anyway tho! Love sleep token:))
Here from the future - it absolutely is AOTY
From the get go it already reminded me of Sugar, and then the ending reminded me of High Water. What a beauty.
I didn't think they could make a song I liked more than the Summoning, but this song is just pure sexy vibing. So well done, I love how they effortlessly own any genre.

I love the last two, but I honestly think this is my favorite single so far. This is exactly the Sleep Token I signed up for
Worship 🕯️ Bringing sexy into Metal is all I need right now.
Aqua Regia drops tomorrow. Looking forward your reaction 🫶
These guys do not miss man. I get chills everytime I hear this band and I’m so stoked for the future!
this bassline melts my face
I hope they sell the collectable figures in these videos
This is definitely a radio song and I'm here for it, it's pretty good
Hope this band blow up in mainstream this year, they definitely deserve it.
It's hard to compare such bangers like these singles, but surprisingly I found myself more excited during the first listening of Granite, rather than the other two.
When Sleep Token brings the vibes, they fucking VIBE! I agree that their production for this album is so CRISP. Love it!
I wasnt feeling Granite or Aqua Regia when I saw them debut live on Tuesday but I think its growing slowly hearing the studio version
Aqua Regia?
@@pedropessoa2246 apparently being released tomorrow
@@pedropessoa2246 the next single that should be coming either tonight or tomorrow
Oooh that's cool... they're releasing the album as singles in pairs apparently, that's nice
@@pedropessoa2246 they played Granite and Aqua Regia live the day before yesterday.

This song ending in my top5 in Spotify Wrapped 2023, can tell you already
This is my favorite out of the three released so far.
I was lying in bed when it heard the breakdown, and I got scared AF because it caught me off guard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Really? I think it's easily my favorite. I haven't been able to stop listening to it
I think its definitely a wow
I think this is the best track of the 4 in my opinion
Goosebumps from this track! A masterpiece! I throw it into the playlist right away!😯👍
Such a feeling of relaxation and indifference from her)🤤
Breakdown of Sanity dropped new song!
the lyrics are pretty damn deep too. song is so dope
Sleep token and loathe are bound to have a breakout year.
So far my fav! 🔥👑
Absolute kings!
Rick-"I guess we should never take the little things for Granite"
I just can't love this song enough

Worship.
My favorite one is still Chokehold, but this one is everything I love Sleep Token for.
The characters are his religious deities. It’s based on an old runic religion that worshipped a polytheistic ideal. His main deity is known as Sleep, hence his little notes and hints of death and slumber. This isn’t just music, it’s worship 🖤🖤😴
fvkin loved this a super lot. s tier level of quality. I feel like they just keep getting better and better. 😍😍😍
I was last week by a concert to sleep token! It was INSANE
I can't stop listening to this song!!
Granite is so much like Sugar from Sundowning. If you had to pick one song with Pop appeal so far, one that could garner Radio play, it would be this song.
This album excites my so fucking much!
I’m so glad I was early to sleep token, it’s been super fucking cool to watch them explode, same with bad omens
I’m pretty sure the guitars are in Drop B0. I think that’s the lowest note. It at least pitch shifts to that but it’s so low at this point that it’s hard to tell.
My favourite song. Of all time.
We fucking worship.
I'm kinda obsessed with sleep token lately🥰😂
us and everyone else.
This one reminds me more of dark signs than it does chokehold
another just dropped... get on it!
Loving the new tunes. Worship.
There all 10/10s in my book… this one gets better and better with every listen
Based on the order of the songs in the single "folders" on Spotify, I'd guess we are going through the album backwards? Chokehold being the closer?
I doubt that is the case, I think they always put the newest at the top and the others below it to get more streams
Anybody else feel like this is a Dark Signs meets Nazareth vibe? (Dark signs for the general groove and bass undertones but Nazareth for the breakdown and buildup
That does it, im gonna make a sleep token model to celebrate the release of the album myself. Wish me luck lads!
2023 is the year of Sleep Token
Can’t wait for Aqua Regia Tomorrow!
I'm here for the reacts and to worship.
Love it! Most Looking forward to Aqua Regia hopefully tomorrow🤞
aqua is the next song, i assume it comes soon.
This feels like dark signs 2.0 and im very ok with that
Another single drops tonight too called Aqua Regia!🤘🏻
How do u know?
@@vizz00 i think it was played live on their concert together with granite yesterday
@@vizz00 I have my sources😏 comeback and tell me tomorrow if I’m wrong.🤙🏻
And they just released a new song 'Aqua Regia' . Brace.your.self.
beautiful vocals and at the same time it is dissident so it's different
Aqua regia comes out tomorrow
worship.
Good song, rock'n guitar.
New in flames
Breakdown of Sanity - Collapse ^^
And by Sleep Token law we should be getting another one tonight…….
they're letting the drummer rest 🙏
He uses electronic pads for the beats though
W O R K S H E E P
I love this band so much
Ps new breakdown of sanity can you react to that pls
Next song will be a r&b one.
Post the new one now!
V I B E | T O K E N
When this album drops babies are gonna be made! 😆
Also BoS just dropped a new single!!
It took me longer than I want to admit to realise you meant Breakdown of Sanity and not Brand of Sacrifice
Where is their new single though?
I like your shirt
Check out new In Flames song,, it's total banger
Not sure I'm on board with this one. It has major Imagine Dragons vibes. I do enjoy their other releases though.
Do y’all even know what imagine dragons sound like
I somewhat doubt it’ll be talked about less. This song is too good not to
Dark Signs 2.0 :)
Sleep Token gettin sexy for LP3 i
Looks like Sleep Token noticed that most fans fell asleep before they got to the ending of their last album so they decided to turn up on every front
Seems like it😂
The album wasn’t bad by any means
But after hearing Sundowning for the first time in the same year I was a little disappointed
Granite is pronounced gran-it. 😊
Прівет рад що ти з України🇺🇦
Люблю тебе друже
Область Миколаївськая
Not criticism , but you spent more time looking at the cube head than listening to the lyrics during the first verses and chorus
Duuuuuude check it'out the new Dealer - Show the Body 🔥🔥🔥
Honestly, Chokehold and The Summoning is what Thornhill WISH their music could be
What

@@bogdanhxc Yeah, figures :D I consider them to be similar in terms of style, but definitely not the vibe
Sounds like it could be a Harry Styles song.
Not really
This single is weaker than the previous one
I respect the complexity, however, it’s just boring.
Strong disagree
