    I’m a professional singer. And let me tell you that barely any singer EVER has made me this absolutely fucking STUNNED the first listen. Holy FUCK. His control, articulation, pressure, breath support, grit, vowel placement, the fact that he do so freely executed each note and actually lets his voice shine in a way that lets him release it instead of holding it back to make it “perfect” like so many artists do… holy fuck. The chills this man give me. Where can I get tickets? Lol

      That's interesting that you feel that way. I can barely understand anything he is saying because he sings like Hootie/Creed/Pearl Jam half the time slurring the shit together. I like some of his stuff but this one was eh... just aight. Imagine Jared Leto singing this.... you'd have clarity - and more range and power.

    • @ElSings
      @ElSings 8 дней назад +3

      @@HeroS_DionysuSsinging at its core is not about having clarity on vocals though, or having power. Sure, those are great, average, and societally popular and acceptable traits to have as a singer. However, Jared Leto , whilst I have to agree is probably also one of my favorite singers because he has energy in his stage presence and vocal articulation, has a different _flavor_ of singing. Does that make sense? Not every singer is- or SHOULD- perform the same as the next. Music would be depressing if that were the case. And also, the way vessel sings is actually extroardinarily difficult to do- dare I say as a trained singer myself, MUCH HARDER than anything Hared Leto does. If you know anything about vocal anatomy, you’ll know that whilst both singers are insanely good, Vessel is on another level entirely. This is due to the fact that he can allow the perfect amount of breath through for each sigh between notes, yet without overexerting the breath for the next note- how he can subtly give vibrato, but make it INTENTIONALLY imperfect because it’s a performance of emotion, not about perfection, power, or diction. Music, at its core, is an EMOTIONAL connection with other human beings. So sure, it’s nice to have that Jared Leto in there somewhere where we can hear everything he says clearly, etc. but truly, Vessel reaches deeper than almost any other singer I’ve seen because he ACTUALLY CONNECTS EMOTIONALLY with music. THAT is the mark of someone who is a true artist, dare I say even a prodigy. It is so UNFATHOMABLY difficult to hone in on the exact techniques that vessel uses that he is at that level simply from that alone. There are also music theory reasons, psychological facts behind his singing that are influenced because of music theory (like chords, groupings of notes, the execution of how he sings given the experience of western listeners ears on music, etc) that elevate him to this level.
      Bottom line- enough of my rant- music is NOT about perfection, clarity, or power. It is instead about conveying a story, emotions, and humanity itself to another human through the most visceral way possible. And that is by letting your guard down and NOT being perfect and dictated, etc. music is about emotion and expression and humanity, as violent as that can be. And Vessel harnesses that meaning better than any other singer I have listened to.

    You know how when you get older, fewer and fewer things pierce that foggy veil. You respond less and less emotionally to things, you hear some sappy song and see everyone saying it made them cry and you can't relate. You know maybe a few years ago you could but life has just gotten so heavy that no song can invoke those feelings, yeah well that isn't the case with this song. The first song to make me feel ok in a while. Thanks man.

    My son died 11 years ago today. I was lost for a long time. And then I found Sleep Token, or rather, I feel like they found me. Broken, shattered and slowly dying a little bit every day, I stumbled upon Missing Limbs and it changed everything for me. Through their music, I've finally started to live again, be present, participate in my own life. I Was able to see them at the Dallas Ritual this year, and it.was.EVERYTHING. On my deepest darkest days, I isten to Sleep Token and I grieve and i LIVE. Eternally grateful for their music.

      Same. I came across them literally 3 days ago (I know I must have been under a rock 🤦‍♀️) but my goodness I’m so glad I did. Their music is “moving” me in ways and reaching me in places that music hasn’t been able to touch (if I’m honest, that NOTHING has been able to touch) in probably like 15+ years. Not since I was in my early 20’s and felt everything.
      I came across a video of someone describing the band and the lore and the “gimmick” (their words not mine) and I thought that sounded interesting, but I was not prepared for just how AMAZING the music would be. I thought it might be fun deciphering the lyrics to figure out the story but didn’t realize how powerful they would be regardless of the “lore” and how much they’d actually resonate with me and my own story.
      I also love how versatile the music is; songs go from rock to heavy metal to electronic to acoustic to a cappella, sometimes even within the song. And the vocals are on another level. I’m just so glad I discovered them when I did because they are exactly what I need in my live right now and I’m so grateful to be able to “feel something” again. ❤

    Hey so anyone else know the feeling when you've spent almost a decade feeling completely numb, fearing that life and music just don't affect you the same way anymore, rationalizing it away with blanket statements like "I guess I'm just getting older" while secretly wondering what's broken in you and berating yourself for your own inability to feel, when suddenly a song randomly plays while driving and you're pulled over weeping in a Wawa parking lot as 9 years of emotional catharsis erupts from deep within and you're left feeling exhausted, depleted, and yet for the first time in recent memory... human again?
    I do now.

    Most of sleep token songs about love are basically him either trying to fighting off his love for someone either because they don't love him anymore or the relationship was just too toxic for both of them but it's hard to just stop loving someone so u just keep repeating the cycle over and over again and u end up losing a part of yourself in the process

  • @peterconigliaro200
    @peterconigliaro200 Год назад +36

    The torment infused in this song, in this performance, in every performance of this song, it's absolutely soul-crushing. I've yet to hear a performance of this song, studio or otherwise, where Vessel doesn't break apart by the end, and I find myself breaking apart right along side him. Because I've been in the place that this song depicts, and the words are weaved so beautifully that the scars from my own trauma start to ache again as if they'd only been inflicted yesterday.
    With the release of Euclid earlier this year, I can only hope that the man has achieved some degree of peace in overcoming the pain he's been forced to endure. Vessel insists that we saved him and not the other way around... I disagree. Whatever validation he may have gotten from the reception to his music may have helped to pull him from the darkness, but I know it goes without saying that this music, and all of Sleep Token's music, has done at least a little of the same for each and everyone of us here.
    We are all of us more than the masks we wear. We are all of us more than the burdens we carry and the trauma we endure. We are all of us more than our mistakes, our faults, our guilt. We are all of us human - mind and body, flesh and bone, desperately searching for meaning amid our finite mortal coil. But the beauty of life doesn't come from fate, or from who we think we are or who we believe we are meant to be. The beauty of life is having been born, and from being alive to experience this world now, at this very moment.
    Through all the smiles, through all the sorrow, and through every shade of life in between, the night belongs to us.

    I'm still your favourite regret
    You're still my weapon of choosing
    And out there
    Stuck in a quantum pattern
    Tangled with what I never said
    You say it doesn't matter
    I want to be forgiven
    I want to choke up chunks of my own sins
    Even if the sky cracks in the morning
    And the heavens just won't open up for me
    Would you invite me in again?

It’s a spiritual experience all on its own. Sleep token has deserves ever positive feedback back they have been given. I can’t not WAIT to see how they develop for years to come. They will always hold a special place in my heart, and I think that holds true for many other fans.

Owned our lakefront home on 20 acres, an investment property, three cats, two dogs, a flock of chickens, and what was to be a sustainable homestead. All for new relationship energy (she was agreed to be MY girlfriend that I would share with him. Both lied to my face. The divorce was the worst part I can't even get into. I feel you so much.

    first time hearing this in 2024 and i have only one question for you Vessel.. HOW DO YOU MAKE A MASTERPIECE MORE DEPRESSING THAN IT ALREADY IS, THIS IS SURPRISINGLY THE FIRST TIME YOU'VE MADE ME CRY.. we didn't deserve such a talented band.

    I love this song. I have found someone I never want to lose. Sometimes we aren’t so good for each other. But out of everything and everyone I have ever loved, the thought of losing them, makes me feel this song almost wholly. I am praying we always work on it and come back together so I don’t actually have to feel this. I don’t think I’d survive it.

      I agree with you 1000%.. I too just now discovered them.. So deep do the words "I made loving you a blood sport"... I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this band on a emotional level..

    The way this song hits is just unreal. So many emotions come to life and are felt it's just crazy yet amazing at the same time. Love and pain at the same time in blissful peace. 😌

      You have no idea how good it feels to those of us longer time fans to see comments like this. I’ve been obsessively supporting this band for two years at least because I KNEW they deserved to be huge. The time has finally come and the emotional response both to the music itself and the feeling that all my efforts played a part is so powerful. I hold this band so close to my heart and am stoked for others to do so as well!

    I'm in love with the lyrics of this song. "Somewhere, the atoms stopped fusing" makes me think of a dying sun, everything around it sinking slowly and inexorably into the darkness preceding a supernova.

    Sleep Token has been a saving grace for me this year.
    I miscarried twins earlier in the year, and this song is on repeat often.
    “Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing, I’m still your favorite regret, you’re still my weapon of choosing. And out there stuck in the quantum pattern, tangled with with what I never said… you say it doesn’t matter.
    I want to be forgiven..”
    Thank you for the most meaningful music out there.
