Sleep Token - officially the most confusing band to explain to someone
I wanna tell every single being whether they wanna listen or not and i have no idea how to describe it
Mindless Self Indulgence joined the chat room
Dude same !
Is it metal, is it pop, is it indie?
It's Sleep Token but how would they know .. 😊
I just found them out today. I feel this
No seriously though.
"Im still your favorite regret,
You're still my weapon of choosing"
Fuck I love that line
Shit hits deep. If you know you know
“Tangled with what I never said, you say it doesn’t matter” hits especially hard for me
Yes
Is this song about Gemma???
Is my favorite line too
Vessel just casually having an existential crisis at his Nans 👌
We've all done it
Love this comment 😂
hahahaha thats funny
😂😂😂
@@Rothley131gamezz More than once.
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.
Man I feel that. It's why I don't listen to my all time favorite songs that often. I'm afraid that if I hear them enough the emotions they give me access to will run dry.
Well said man
Exactly!!
Jesus, you quantified it.
Yes
This man has such a powerful way with words. A lot of people meme it, but he truly speaks in cursive.
I love how you described him. I've been trying to do the same and these words explain him perfectly to me. He truly speaks in cursive
He speaks cursive is the best analogy I’ve ever heard
One of my favorite analogies I read someone say also was that listening to each ST song and album is like discovering a new colour.
He achieves the level of lyrical calligraphy in some songs.

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.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m glad you found Sleep Token and they help you grieve ❤
I was pregnant and lost my baby. I found this song and it heals my soul. I feel you. ❤
Music transcends. The talents of this band is astonishing. I’m glad you find solitude in their music.
I hope you're doing okay out there. This happened to me in January, it's been a hard road. I just saw Sleep Token live a few weeks ago and it was cathartic and incredible, even if he's singing about a very different type of loss.
Superb
Never seen a Sith Lord play piano until now

Producer: What genre are you guys?
Sleep Token: Yes.
Exactly ❤
1 year ago today my girlfriend committed suicide. She first showed me sleep token back when she was still here and honestly it's been the only thing that's kept me going. Everyday I miss her, but everytime I listen to this I start to feel just ever so slightly better.
❤️🩹
I'm sorry
I'm so sorry...
Jesus christ, I'm so sorry. I hope you're hanging in there. Much love from kentucky ❤
I'm so sorry man. That's horrible. We are all here for you.
It is the imperfections in his voice, the cracks and breaks, that were left in the recording on purpose that makes Vessel one of the most amazing singers and artists in our time. This song sounds like a first take, live recording and that is just incredible.
Im convinced that Sleep Token can't do wrong.
I discovered them today. It's been playing nonstop. Why is my soul tearing up into pieces inside my meatsuit? Every ounce of pain from my entire life is inside these songs & I FEEL them. I don't understand how to say how I am processing right now.
Are you reaaaaally okayyyy? ❤❤❤ worship. That song tears me up..every..single..time.
Never heard more vulnerable emotion in one human’s voice. This song saved me
Bold of you to assume Vessel is human
No kidding man.
If you liked this singing style you might like Lewis Capaldi stuff and also James Arthur stuff, his song Train Wreck is really good.
vulnerable. i loved that word to describe this, i could not find it. thank you. sounds vulnerable
There are so many songs with emotion pouring from the vocals. Here's a list of a few:
Snuff - Slipknot
Deathbeds - BMTH
Daddy - KoRn
James Arthur - Trainwreck
Sleep Token. The band you never knew you needed in your life until you hear them and then can't live without. Never heard a more truly beautiful band in my life.... My life is better for finding this band. 🖤🖤
Same feeling ❤
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. ❤
They're extremely cringe but that is fine. What isn't fine is that they are classified as metal
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.
Thank you, Sleep Token.
Goodness me this was a real comment. Thank you for this. Damn true.
I do believe you have hit it on the head. Vessel's voice just destroys me and I'm left in pieces ~ every time. It's like my spirit needed a jolt toward healing by ripping up an old set of inner wounds. Then, I really internalize the lyrics to Missing Limbs, Levitate, The Love You Want, Alkaline, The Offering and I'm left wondering, where do I go from here? Talk about the Great Reset.
Your comment just spoke to me...I feel the exact same way for a whole decade now.
Can we start some kind of club
I have screenshot this comment in a non creepy way because it stuck in my head a few months ago. And. It kept on circling on inside my brain and I just had to revisit it. Now it is immortalised on my shitty Huawei. Thanks.
Vessel is honestly too good at singing. Like really in this song you hear a tortured voice in a good way. He really does pour all his emotions into it
Gives me goosebumps everytime
It annoys me that he's been singing so long and I only just heard of Sleep Token 3 months ago, but now I can't stop nor do I
A tortured voice in a good way? Jonathan Davis >>>
@@ma1ngamermoore445only 4ish years and they are everywhere. I’ve never seen a band grow this fast. Vessel got the recognition he deserves
This is my first time listening to this song and while I've heard all of Vessel's screams from the TMBTE album, that growl at 1:28 was one I don't think I ever heard before and FUUUUCCKKK did it make my ears happy. It sounded so good 😭😭
I didn't get a permission slip for this feels trip.
It's ok bro, you can come with us.
🥰
Yet I'm allowed to continuously return here.
My girlfriend of nine years broke my heart in April, just before I discovered this band. His beautiful words are the only thing carrying me through this right now.
Head up dude 🤘🏼👐🏻
Better days are coming my friend
Stay strong, brother. Hang in there. Brighter days will come.
F
Stay strong brother. Music is healing. 🎶 🎼
The vocals on this are even more powerful than the original!
Right.
As an amateur vocalist, I'm a total sucker for these slight cracks of his voice. I just love how emotional his voice is, yet he has full control over it!
@@ptr_does_music7042 Vessel has one the best mixed voices I have ever heard to this day
Theres a live full band performance i saw on YT that hit so hard with the vox. It came out before the actual song
Completely agree.
I don't know how comfortable I am with how many of their songs I relate so closely too. Its like every other song brings me tears. Its almost comforting to listen to another person with apparently as much regret as I do.
We all need to feel understood ❤
To. How can you not spell a two letter word?
Same
the emotion in this man’s voice is insane. can’t listen to this song without getting teary
That voice is everything. Worship
Didn't think I'd find you here haha, that's badass! Worship

I sent this to my sister shortly before she passed unexpectedly. It’s hard to even listen now as much as I love this song. Rip Allie 🖤
Sorry for your loss fam, my condolences and I hope things get better, somehow.
I found out Sleep Token cover of Is It Really You shortly after my grandpa passed away, so that's the one that hits hard for me too.
Rest in peace Allie
rest in peace beautiful soul. she lives on through you, in your heart, and she will forever. wishing you the best, shay… never stop singing along to this song because it will always hold that memory of allie and that’s the most painful yet beautiful part about it. you are so strong, and allie was too. keep looking forward… for her, but most importantly for yourself. live an amazing life for you and allie, and keep pushing on. much love, shay.. from a random lonely internet stranger. 🖤
Very sorry for your loss
RIP allie. 🎠
Literally one of the best vocalist I’ve ever heard of. WORSHIP
as a clean vocalist, I AGREE!
"I'm still your favorite regret, You're still my weapon of choosing"
This is absolutely beautiful ❤ I am in love w this song! Vessel's voice w the piano is hypnotizing.
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
The night I saw Vessel sing is one burned into my memory. Never heard of Sleep Token till they went on stage. I came in with high hopes for the main band. But left with higher aspirations for what music Sleep Token is capable of.
Same story for me except I came to see Polyphia instead of the main band
If Issues was "the
main band" you went to see then you're still stuck on entry level 😅🤣😂
@@nicholasmisiak4724 Not even familiar with “Issues”
Had this at the weekend seeing Architects. Sleep Token blew me away. Been delving into their music ever since
@@jamieheps Same here - saw them at Ally Pally in London and have been listening to Sleep Token since
Imagine walking into your basement and seeing vessel at your piano singing.
I’ll shit bricks, then praise him.
As a good ST fan should do. lol
I would cry
Id mostly be surprised i suddenly had a basement and a piano
I would absolutely shit my pants, and ask how the fuck they wrote some of the best songs ever
But I don't have a basement or piano so this is not possible!
There is no way vessel doesn’t have some background in science. I’m a cancer research scientist, and I also have a passion for astrophysics. The amount of science references, and the level he makes them at, incredibly impressive for a lay person.
I read somewhere that hes had experience in the chemistry field!
Discovered this band literally 15 minutes ago.
Im a fan now.
Facts
Same bro
It doesn’t take long
This Sleep Token journey that I am on is mind blowing... I had no clue who Sleep Token was before Will Ramos covered it.... This band is amazing
Same. An incredible band covered by another incredible singer.
Kind of the opposite. Been listening to sleep token for a long time, just started following Ramos a few months ago. Both legendary talents. Would kill to hear an official collab
Welcome
Same so fucking thankful this band was like a drug to me
Same. I'm so glad bc I am in love with Sleep Token. Worship 🙌🏻
As someone starting the divorce process after one hell of a battle to keep us together and finally having to walk away, this hits so deep
I can relate. My husband that I was with for 15 yrs left me for someone almost ten yrs younger than me after knowing her for a month. We spent over a decade building a life of no debt. 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. It's been over two years and I'm still so emotionally damaged it's wild. I hope you find peace on your journey and new path. I know it can be very hard. But we are so much better for it 🖤
“Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing ” hits me hard every time.
@@andrewj3398 fusing*
@@actualamateur149 gracias :)
Same here.....its been 2 years and this song breaks me down everytime. It's that pain you can't help but to cut deeper because it makes you feel alive.
I'm crying again. I just wanted to leave a comment again here. When I have pent up emotions I just listen to Blood Sport and Are you really okay then start crying. All the emotions that i wanted to get out of my system. The disappointments that i have been feeling with myself. I released it thru crying. Sleep Token just casually saving me from being suicidal by bawling my eyes out, it helps me a lot. Hope they know how their songs affected our life. You've been such a blessing from universe. I love you. 🖤🖤 Hope y'all get big to have a tour in Asia. I really wanted to see you guys ....
I'm really happy you're alive
I lost my dad-in-law on August 22, rn a week ago, listening to Blood Sport makes me sob sm since I have to think about him while listening to it. I have to thank u guys too for ur amazing music. Before and during that time of grief you comforted me in every single way possible. Thank you for existing, thank you for the amazing music!
This might be the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard
If you haven't already heard it, listen to "Fall For Me". I defy you not to weep like a baby at the combination of lyrical and visual perfection.
1:30 Gives me massive chills everytime. God damn this dude sings with every single emotion in his body. I havent found music that made me feel this way in a long time. Thank you, Sleep Token. ❤
The pain in his voice when he says “somewhere; somewhere the atoms stopped fusing; I’m still your favorite regret, you’re still my weapon of choosing” …Vessel you okay man? 😢
Still in love with his voice ❤❤❤
This is better than the studio version... the tortured emotion in the vocal and the chords... just hits different 😭😭😭😭
There’s about 5 or 6 Sleep Token songs that I listen to in a different mental state to 99% of other songs made ever. This is one them. Mesmerising and beautiful, I really love this band.
wow his voice
vessel has that raw pain and passion in his voice that just elevates ANY song you give him,,, i mean his hey ya cover made me BAWL
I had the privilege of seeing Sleep Token live, if you think this band isn’t going to absolutely shatter your expectations of what it means to see a band live you’re absolutely mistaken. 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.
Vessel pours his soul out on the piano! Bravo my favorite cult. Blessed be! 🖤
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.
just dried my eyes from vessel's delivery of this song, and your comment made me cry all over again. 😭
yo no lo habria expresado mejor. Gracias por este comentario. Cuando escuche esta canción por primera vez, las lagrimas me brotaban nuevamente.
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.
This is possibly the most beautiful thing I've ever heard
Sleep Token make me feel like the universe is licking my spine...
I have no words to describe how this song makes me feel. I'm obsessed with this band.
"I'm still your favorite regret,
you're still my my weapon of choosing."
Hits me every time
The "I'm still your favorite regret, you're still my weapon of choosing" hit my heart so hard and I don't even know why it just did
Never saw a piano cry before. What a song! ❤❤❤❤❤
You guys have become my favorite band and its wild being that you guys are on the opposite end of the genre i like. I have to see you guys live in 2025 i hope?!?
Thought this wouldn't hurt anymore. But here we are...
What is life without sleep token
Unparalleled.
Worship 🖤
Any more Sleep Token covers, my dude?
Plz cover gods, I would be so happy
1:27....goosebumps every time
Came back to this song to think of Jen. I lost her last year. Stress in a better place now. This song definitely make me think of her. And makes me smile.
Just started listening to Sleep Token, and damn I did not expect them to make me cry so damn much. 😢 abesolutely beautiful. Their lyrics are always TOP TIER
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..
I still cry over them lol. This band hit my soul. Feels like falling in love, but its music. Its crazy to explain. Worship
2:16 when you are really pissed off that the heavens just won't open up for you
(WORSHIP)
I hit the time stamp 20 times, left the video, and came back and repeatedly hit it again. Im fucking dead
Love how there's no sound of him crying at the end, but you see it. And the album version, with full force playing, you hear him, at the end, without seeing.
You're a cool bunch of people. Completely, and utterly much too in love with you. Thanks for being here. You have my allegiance.
This band, this man, they raised the bar. Far, far up high. Lyrics, Vocals, Emotionality, Soundscape (especially the drums, well, not in this case but you know what I mean), Band dynamics. High high high.
This is as heavy as a sun dying and imploding on itself. Its when your in love and your heart feels so purely for someone who can never reciprocate and feel as deep as you do and the painful, slow realization keeps hitting you time and time again while you keep getting back up bleeding, knocked down yet again. This is so relatable beyond words. Dam I love Sleep token!! Fucking Worship!
Keep coming back over and over and over and over again… you can really feel the hurt in every word he sings… makes it that much easier to connect with and really appreciate his music more ❤❤
First time listening, cried instantly… I feel as tho this is speaking to my soul in way that I couldn’t figure out. The way this song had healed me is incredible
It’s only my first time listening to it and I feel like a weight has been lifted of my chest
This song hits home - the emotion in this is heartbreaking and beautiful.
Love how the singing turns into gentle screaming. And of course that piano playing🔥
His voice is beautiful i wish id discovered them earlier but enjoy exploring all they have to offer. The man is a real wordsmith with the ability to look into your life and just rip those emotions right out of you. And i let him without regret. Fantastic band 🖤✌️🎶
3 months in as a Sleep Token fan and all I can say is wow. And I’m still binging every single song and letting everyone I know about them.
Imagine if they made simething like this for Euclid, I would die.
Spontaneous combustion would be the end result
When I was a kid, my piano teacher used to tell me that my fingers had to be curled enough for a mouse to run beneath them. Vessel has taught me that this has absolutely nothing to do with art. This is a masterpiece.
I’m intrigued by the way he plays the piano
Listening to this song 10 times in a row... crying hard...so powerfull...
Was just introduced to SLEEP TOKEN and they are absolutely amazing!! So many GREAT songs. My favorites are BLOOD SPORT and THE SUMMONING!! PHENOMENAL MATERIAL!!!
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!
Did anyone else click the thumbnail thinking it would be heavy metal or just me?
This song is beautiful tho - definitely going on my painting playlist
Same here but definitely not disappointed.
Check out the rest of their stuff especially dark signs and the offering
@@rickyjk3 Just bought Sundowning Deluxe Edition after listening to "The Offering" so thank you very much.
Yeah, this is a lot more emo than I was anticipating. I'm still not sure if it's my cup of tea, but I can appreciate the talent here.
@@paulhahn8073 I can understand if it's not your cup of tea but I'd say it's not emo per se. That's like calling Ghost emo
Making me rethink the last 31 years of my life. It's too late to do anything about it, but the thought is self-destructive, and I like that, apparently.
I could watch this 100 times in a row and need to watch it 100 times more. Every version of this song gets more powerful than the last. The vocalist clearly has a very emotional energy tied to this song and there is not a single version performed you cant feel it. Absolutely wonderful.
This is like a 21st century "Something I can never have".
Twentyfirth
@@argetect2847 thanks, corrected
Damn I love that. Something I can never have is one of my favorite songs. I get that emotion from this for sure!
Absolutely! Very emotive
Facts
Just him, his piano and his heart. I can feel his voice. This is wonderful. I wish I can see his face. You're in my prayers. Keep singing. Stay safe always. God bless! Much love from the Philippines! 🇵🇭💜
Oh my god. It's 1am and im sobbing in these version. Wow
I'm crying now 😭 it's so beautiful ❤️
Wow a powerful performance amazing song vessel is an angelic singer ❤ I make loving you a blood sport
I have to admit I was expecting a brutal song when I saw the title. Well played, Sleep Token.
“… I can’t win
So let’s play”
Welcome to me.
In late to this party but have been on this trip for 5 days now
WORSHIP....
Beautiful
the "somewhere" in 1:27 .... Jesus, I can feel the pain. Who hurt you, Vessel?
This is music that saves lives.
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.
To do what he does vocally is phenomenal. Most don't realize he he singing through his teeth which from what I understand is very difficult. Amazing vocalist and amazing band!
I noticed that too, just wow
I'm legit entranced by this song. Chills listening to it. It pulls memories of my life out and plays them for me.
2:44
That damn run down when he sings sport, though? This man's isn't human!
Worship.
Honestly! When I saw them live I had never heard of them before and it was so surreal, it was like I was looking at ghosts or aliens or something! Just looking at Vessel gave me a powerful feeling that I can't even describe, it was so weird.
Well. guess i can't die now. My 43 year old self thought it was over. Nope. Sleep Token. I'm in agreement with 90% of whatever goes down here.Thank You.
An artist with the ability to express in song the humanity we all feel. A true gift to humanity. Thank you vessel.
I love this version more than the original, much more emotional. I also just love how aesthetically appealing this all is, beautiful and intimate imagery here! This is just a glistening masterpiece, I simply can't put into words how much I love Sleep Token. Just, Worship!
I have not been through what Vessel has been through. I can't pretend to understand what was going through his head in that moment in time. So why does my heart ache and my eyes grow wet with tears each time I listen to this song?
His poetic mind... he is such an extraordinary human being..
The power and emotion in Vessels voice just makes me weep 😭🖤
Can’t believe they played this at Wembley! Legends
Gut wrenching. So happy there’s a full piano version.
Bro this hits so hard every time I listen it makes me cry in depression because my friends left and this reminds me of them
this song has embodied my entire behavior and existence in 4 minutes
