Please do take me back to Eden
Need to react to the entire album
The title track 'Take me back to Eden' is another masterpiece from this album
Fact.
True, I just wish they did not end it with fade out.
Phenomenal song. I'm loving Rain as well.
So are the other 11 songs on the album
nothing wrong with a fade out, yall need to stahp
I think the heavier second half is to compliment the lyrics entirely. If you listen to them closer, the first half has him being the victim of a selfish person. In the 2nd half, Post "Ascension", he's now admitting to doing the same thing to others. I think the fact the 2nd half is heavier is probably because he acknowledges it's not entirely a good thing he's ended up this way. And even though he's "Ascended", he's lost some of his goodness in the process of protecting himself. Pretty common stuff in modern dating Lol, but masterfully put into song.
I was considering posting this, but since it's been 10 months since the video posted, I assumed there would be a 0% chance they would see the comment. Glad you said it.
I felt that it flowed beautifully. The ending was a solid expression of pain. Primal Scream.
I have yet to be able to listen to this song without tears.
that scream is the second-best moment of the album after the Euclid callback
❤️
AI generated comment
Tears everytime. People perceive lyrics and music differently. I resonate heavily with this one.
What you said about genres is so on point to Vessel's own ethos on how Sleep Token sound. In his one and only interview he said "Life is dark. Life is bright. Life is ugly. Life is beautiful. Don’t get lost in genres, they’ll only disorientate you. Music is for everyone.” ❤
That quote is epic. Sleep Token is awesome.
My boyfriend showed me these guys and im addicted to them.
I’m a hiphop head from the jump but this band resonates with my soul.
*WORSHIP*
The R&B and hip hop makes it so sexy, I hope it gets people excited to make more cross genre music
I'm here for it. One of the few bands that have actually convinced me to like trap XD
@@jamesc5801 It’s pretty weird I don’t listen to much modern hip hop at all I like mainly classic but I bump to this new Sleep Token with the R&B Hip Hop parts lol
i was crying and twerking
@@elbeetlebeasto 😂
May the music gods decide not to hear you 🙏🏽
I've always been a "love every genre as long as it's good music" type of person and Sleep Token ticks all the boxes for me. His vocals and lyrics are 🤌🏻🤌🏻 and the genre blending is just dope. They do it so seamlessly. It's mad impressive.
Yes exactly. It’s sad how most people these days stick to one genre and miss out on so much other good music.
Sleep Token has a song for anyone in any mood. Angry, sad, happy, contemplative, no matter what they have something that you can feel.
Ascenionism is great, don’t get me wrong, but Rain is definitely my favorite off the album. Either way, great video as always guys!
Same. Rain is such a damn good song man.
Absolutely! The Apparition is awesome as well.
The way the drums kicks in is just too good in Rain
Rain is so fuckin catchy and vibey it should be illegal
Everyone will have their own favorite on this album and I love that so much! They did amazing with this and it’s definitly an album of the year contender for me atleast
52 years old. TOOL is my fav band. LOVE Sleep Token.
Soon to be 28 here. Tool is #1 on my list. They brought me here. Sleep token is moving up on my list.
Check out Gavin Harrison, Russian Circles and both Maynard s two musical groups.
Literally the same. 52 and I just worshiped in Chicago and was stunned how much like the album they sounded live. I've been to 5-6 Tool shows too and the hypnotic hold they have over the audience is very similar. Glad they got a record deal and hope they can keep this vibe going.
What seems even more significant about this track is that the feeling of the ballad is there throughout the whole song, despite changing genres.
It’s incredibly multilayered.
Vessel is a master of his craft.
The drummer aint no joke. Dude plays his ass off. Thanks guys.
That was the dopest.... whatever genre you wanna put it in.... song I've ever wanted to play at 3 in the morning with the surround sound on MAX.
It's so mellowing, then it goes smooth, and then it just turns brazen and resilient. And then you get the deja vu.
You guys really have been responsible for about 40% of my playlists over the years. To be honest, I dont subscribe to much, but even so, I DO NOT MISS YOUR NEW CONTENT
"Content"
@@Stringer13ell yes, you might not like it but it is content. You literally have to watch react stuff to even get here or get recommended this so idk why you're complaining lmao .
If you like this song check the song Take Me Back to Eden.
i like how you described this
i’ve totally become bewitched by sleep token and all their music and their message is all so fascinating!! They don’t keep one genre and not one song is the same. They are an unquietly incredible band and it so cool to see someone else’s reaction to this incredible magical and beautiful piece of art. worship!!
What do you think it's their message? Honest question
@@educostanzo Vessel said in a dream he was visited by a entity who called itself “Sleep”. The group dedicates their music and stuff to Sleep and worships Sleep like a god. It’s so fascinating!!
This album is so good. No skips.
So true the only one at first I just couldn’t get into was Aqua Regia but now one of my favorites
DYWTYLM was that for me. Aqua Regia was instantly a hit after I heard the first two chords. So Jazzy @@luckyme0511
When the rap started I was wondering "K so when are they gonna lose their shit?" and yeah that "past life, past lives" part definitely was my prediction
They're on another level. This whole album is ridiculous. Straight talent.
R&B and prog metal are my two favs so this band really hits and being lyrical is just a plus. So happy you guys are feeling ST and happy they are finally blowing up
Really? R&B and prog metal are your two favorite genres?? Huh.
@@banehog really. To the point where the piano in Aqua Regia reminds me of don’t leave me by Blackstreet 😂
The vocalist is actually the sole musical writer! He gets help from the drummer but it's mainly the vocalist :)
He’s also the one playing everything except drums, on the album.
Him and II are the music
Just like the band The Plot in You. Their vocalist writes all their instrumentals and lyrics too
This is how most bands work lol
Not sure if you guys are aware but Vessel writes and performs everything on the album aside from the drums, he also has a hand in the production of the album. It’s crazy to think sleep token is just one insanely talented guy and an amazing drummer.
Sleep Token has a full band. It's not just Vessel and a drummer.
They did officially sign on their guitarist and bassist last year. So they are a full band now. But they are all insanely great artists!
@@CommanderVolkov For live shows. In the studio, Vessel writes and plays everything except for the drums.
@@chilliewhk For live shows. In the studio, Vessel writes and plays everything except for the drums.
@@CommanderVolkov Yeah Widetrack is right. On the official album credits there’s only 2 members Vessel, and Vessel 2
First experiencing a Sleep Token track is so different. It makes you enjoy seeing other people's initial reactions. Such an epic band
They have actually released covers of Hey Ya and I Wanna Dance With Somebody in the past :) So you're on point! They have many influences!
The Hey Ya cover is decent but no they destroyed that Whitney Houston song. Ehhh. Literally their worst song.
The apparition is just a banger
I’m sayn
I understand the feeling of it being forced if you don't listen to a lot of Sleep Token. They have a lot of songs like that, but they also have a lot of songs with no metal at all in it. The way I like to describe them is they kinda just do what they want and they're amazing at all of it.
We need a full album reaction at this point!
I love seeing people who are used to one particular genre reacting to Sleep Token. Since I’ve never been someone who stuck with one genre, it’s interesting to see what elements different reactors get excited about in their music. When I listened to Ascensionism, I immediately hoped you guys would give it a listen. Good analysis! I think with more listens, it will sound more cohesive.
Corey Taylor says sleep token is like the beginning of Slipknot very unique and different but are going to blow up massively
That last breakdown with the scream that elevates and keeps going at the end. It really gave me chills. Amazing
It's the story telling that ties everything together for me. Once you can get a vibe of what he's trying to see with each section and how that specific sound or genre supports that it clicks (for me at least). Super creative
Thanks for giving Sleep Token another reaction! Love what you guys do.
By the way, for live shows, they have a full band, but in the studio, Vessel writes and plays everything except for the drums. Just amazing to think all this was done with only two guys and a co-producer (who’s great as well, by the way).
"one day i'm listening to stevie wonder and i'm inspired, one day i'm listening to van halen and i'm inspired, and one day i'm listening to slip knot i'm inspired" love how you can't put a group in a box cause they blend and do it all so well. they're all killer musicians. worship
You guys definitely need to do one of the below… Aqua Regia, Dark Signs, Alkaline , Rain and Higher for sure.
Odd you said Granite didn’t do anything for you, but on the reaction you seemed to love it.
This song is amazing and needs multiple listens as it has so much depth and elements to unpack.
I think if you don’t like the song structure and switching of styles,
then ST probably isn’t a good fit with you guys as that is their signature used throughout many of their songs.
Great to see you digging parts of the music. This whole record is a masterpiece IMO ❤😊
George said that about granite I bet Ryan still bumps it lol
@@beejusfingus trueee
@@beejusfingus Ryan was talking playlist seconds into it lol
Sugar is another great one that many forget about 🫠
Id say the album would be perfect but I still struggle to listen to DYWTYLM. Otherwise, its 10/10
I am going to DEVOUR this album when I get my hands on that vinyl I ordered.
I’ve started using this song to get people into Sleep Token. I feel like this song has everything you’ll find in all of their music. Worship 🖤
I think the metal at the end works so well beacuse its a good way to really show the emotion of the lyrics as the song builds
I don't think the last half was a dispature more of an affirmation. When he screams, 'you're gonna watch me ascend.' That was the change in musical direction and the story. Definitely a second, third and even fourth listener to grasp the concept.
The whole album is legit. I know you guys aren’t old fans but the final track, Euclid, has a call back to the first track of their debut album, The Night Does Not Belong To God. This album is the conclusion of a trilogy concept for this band (Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Take Me Back To Eden.) It brings it back full circle and is absolutely amazing. Worship.
Just listened to that song in full for the first time yesterday and I heard those lyrics at the end and was like hold up! This release is definitely better than the last one, but very hard to beat One, Two, and Sundowning.
I honestly feel like “Rain” is the song off of this album for you guys. Balanced blend of the heavy and sexy electronic elements.
This is one of those situations where nothing connects w me, but I’m glad if it works for u.
Please do Take me back to Eden! Absolute masterpiece.
Rain is the real banger. That’s my personal favorite on the album.
The whole album amazing.. Drummer does not let up, Vessel's vocals are next level technically.. goosebumps constant dynamic changes
Technique wise vessel actually does not use the greatest technique, as some of it is actually reacher unhealthy. Not to say he isn’t a good sounding vocalist, he’s just not “technically” next level.
@@Conundrums._ It is not, please don't talk about things you don't know about. Thanks
“RAIN” is a killer ❤ of this album. Sleep Token is a mood band they reach in your soul makes you feel and think,it’s not about your “commercial style basic band”. Very music school style do they own thing.
With Sleep Token you cannot separate the lyrics from the instrumentals. There's usually a clear journey going on, especially in longer songs like these. This particular song goes from: sadness --> blaming the other person for the pain --> deciding to grow and ascend as a person to get back at the other person --> realizing you can't and lash out because of it --> accepting the harsh truth of who you truly are --> falling into a pit of despair because you finally looked yourself in the mirror and there's no longer a way to unsee it.
Yeah, this might just be their most depressing song if you pay close attention. It's kinda heart breaking.
If your familiar with his original group from about 10 years ago you can definitely hear his sound. His voice has matured over the year to give us "Vessel" and its amazing!
Purple dark awning
I’d definitely argue that this album is there best to date. It flows so perfectly with each song
I believe that metal section near the end was in Drop A Tuning... A 2023 Release Of The Year. What A Mashup!!😆I'm a 62 year old Prog/Metal/Jazz/Motown fan, And this is Very Fresh, IMHO.
Ive had this album on repeat since it dropped.
this album is a masterpiece! fuckinn beautiful!
im going to se them live in september here in Detroit. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Yesss! This is definitely top 3 off the album for me. So glad y'all checked it out! 150% recommend the title track as well.
It’s just amazing how Vessel is the one playing all of the instruments (minus the drums of course) in their songs.
Vessel I
Vessel II
Vessel III
Vessel IV
So... Yeah you are correct😮
@@JordonHouston92 Vessel is the vocalist, II is the drummer. They ARE Sleep Token. III and IV are only paid tourists, not actually part of Sleep Token. Vessel does EVERYTHING in the Studio minus the drums, because that's II's job
@@cryptozex9192 I appreciate the info. I was attempting to be funny but learned that 3&4 are non-members
@@JordonHouston92 ah my apologies
@5:20 " 2 dudes in a room all close " 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Songs made me cry like 41 times but yall made me crack and start laughing.
Thank you 😂
I’m sayn
What’s crazy is there are lyrics in this song and others on this album, that confirms who vessel is for those of us that were nosey enough to look into it. If you follow the breadcrumbs, in a way, he revealed himself to his biggest fans.
I can offer you a blacklit paradise…
I read the lyrics but I don't necessarily see where he reveals his identity.
I know this band is esoteric so i will keep reading this song over and over
as well as the rest on the album and try to decipher. Thank you for pointing that
out, it's very interesting.
It was already revealed like 2 years ago who Vessel is. The group didn't reveal it themselves but someone in their production team did. So that's been out of the bag for a while.
@@Ifearcarnies Ascensionism be like : "I can offer you a blacklit paradise."
Euclid be like: "These ancient canopies we used to lay beneath."
@@13lueBerryBluntzI feel like Euclid is about him finally accepting their relationship ended and has finally moved on and became some one new
This was pretty decent. There bit of heavy at the end really elevated it for me. Awesome.
I didn’t realize the album was out! Thanks for making me aware.
Title track is a banger too! Straight to the "stay list" haha
I love this song and this is my first video of yalls I've ever watched. After hearing you say it felt like the second part is forced and that it could've been 2 different songs I thought about the entire composition and thought why didn't they make it 2 different songs? In my opinion it feels like the song is his mood throughout a day thinking about the person he's singing about. It begins with a ballad when he first thinks about them, then the R&B is him distracting himself with other worldly things but doesn't last for long until he breaks back into his "ballad" feelings. Then ends it with the real way he feels just screaming "you make me wish I could disappear". Music is subjective but thinking of the song this way made me appreciate it more.
You right
The Apparition is gold along with The Rain.
No one is doing what they are doing!!!!! Sleep Token is fire!!!!!!! Everything flowed perfectly!!!! Total masterpiece.
Been eagerly waiting for this record.
Found out about sleep token about a month ago and they have easily become one of my favorite bands out there. They are just a breath of fresh air and so dope.
This track is amazing!
Thanks for showing ST some love again
With the hype surrounding this album, and your guys' reception to the tracks you've heard so far, it might be a nice treat for the D2R website and/or Patreon subscribers for a full album reaction. Feel like that could be a good time for both you two and your audience.
15:52 as a ST fan, I feel the same way with this song. Even though we all know that's their style but usually they still get to surprise us, not this time to me.
And yes, definitely I lean a lot more to Euclid, Rain and TMBTE
I’m running out to buy this album today. That was straight fire. Sleep Token has been one of the only new bands I’ve been following from album to album. Their compositions are so blissful to me.
hope you enjoyed the listen!
This album is fantastic. This song took me a couple listens to fully appreciate, but now I'm addicted! The transitions felt forced to me at first as well, but are now my favorite aspect of this song.
Seriously, every song has something special and there is no filler
As soon as I heard this track I couldn’t wait to come over here and see y’all’s reaction! Made my day ❤
ugh, this song is so great. this album is so great.
This track perfectly encapsulates Sleep Tokens sound. It’s so perfect
Are You Really Ok made me cry, the title track is a masterpiece and Rain is just amazing… what an album
You will like “the apparition” by sleep token even more. It has a shorter R&B part, but blends perfectly with the rock piece
I almost feel like this group came out of nowhere! This came out on my new music Friday playlist and I’m digging it! Really different
Man I’m glad they found their way to you. I first heard of them way back in 2017 way before they blew up and they have just been out doing themselves with every new piece of material they put out. Unique, undefinable and beautiful. They really have ascended with this one, pun intended.
I’m stoked you guys are excited about them
Would love to see you guys react to ANY song from Sleep Theory! Great band that has r&b elements as well
Speaking of slipknot. Corey Taylor said in an interview that he things Sleep Token are going to be one of the next big names. Pretty big praise right there!
The art of musically show you the interpretation of love and appreciation through R&B
And heartbreak through metal
So cool to see yall react to this.
Def some gospel to this.. worship!
Drummer is heavily influenced by gospel drummers and you can hear the same in Vessels voice. Shits beautiful af
Really fantastic reaction. As someone who listens to R&B a lot, this song absolutely blew me away when I heard it on release. Love hearing ya'lls takes on that aspect of it, very on point thoughts and deconstruction.
Loved this. Thanks
I could see The Weeknd sampling this song or even being featured on it. I love the versatility of this band.
I love this album!! Great reaction!
The lead singer has a long history of Soul and R&B on top of just incredibly good vocals in metal. I think this album shows that the band is capable of more than just metal, flexing their chops as musicians more than trying to define genres. The longer songs on the album are more like stories that use different styles to convey emotions/phases in life and the progression of the band lyrically, and stylistically, across all their albums.
Probably my favorite from this masterpiece of an album! And I definitely had the thought “Lost in Vegas HAS to react to this!”
i absolutely loved this review 😂😂 seeing y’all’s reactions to when he started spitting
This whole album is worth playlist on repeat
Sleep token is baby making music. I love it. You gotta hear the whole album to understand, all the songs come together.
I think it sounds like 3 songs bc I think this is a Sonic representation of a relationship-the ballad is him starting off wistful, melancholy & nostalgic (slow piano)…that puts the narrator into the headspace of the relationship at its best (the trap)…the djenty metal is the eventual outcome of that relationship-anger, rage despair. Then once that’s exercised, he comes back to being melancholy. It’s a sonic metaphor
Thats what i was thinking, that its a concept designed to represents an emotional rollercoaster of sorts.
Saw these dudes live it was one of the best show I been to in awhile
WORSHIP
10:45 you are speaking so much truth. We need more musicians creating based off that pure inspiration. I hope you're right about that being the future of music!
Chokehold (heavier song) or Aqua Regia (smooth jazzy song) are songs that don’t change drastically. I think you would appreciate this approach more.
:2 Dudes Close In A Room" still laughing. lol
I think there is an “against the grain of the suede” feel when bands/groups like Sleep Token “switch out”. But we are at a time in this world when there is a lot of impulsive changes. I am a metal head since 1988, but I enjoy and respect a lot of R&B/Synth type music. I tear this band down in every facet. Lyrically, absolutely phenomenal. This “Vessel” guy can sing the phone book and I’m in. This album was the third in an album trio. This chapter is closed. I’m curious, creatively, what the next material will sound like. I’m sure they are listening to the reviewers and critics and that will be the driving force of what their music does next. Hardcore metal, head bopping R&B, or else wise a completely different direction to show their versatility. Nice review gentleman!
When an artist actually knows how to use autotune properly it's magnificent, i feel a lot of artists just use it cause it's the in thing to do and don't know how to use it properly.
Healing❤ worship, great choice in reaction guys, got a sub out of it. I completely understand how you both felt about the path into that sequence for the prog metal, myself in my opinion i didn't feel the same lol and yes the direction of music now is getting exciting and definitely bringing humans from all sides together.
Lol these cats really need to hear more Sleep Token before talking that ish!
“Aqua Regia” is soo smooth it’ll make you buy a recliner having you sipping on a glass of courvoisier, smoking the finest cigar, reading the local newspaper with a monocle on.
this band was made for this channel :P love you guys keep it up
So u guys were the first reaction video pair I ever watched. Sleep Token is soo perfect for you guys. Old metal head who has been renewed by the whole deathcore movement. Bands like this make me believe metal is taken over the world..music wise I mean
As a newer fan, I deeply appreciate this album. Their previous album "This Place will..." holds a special place in my heart for feeling like it existed in its own dimension, but "Take me Back..." is a great listen
Melancholic, groovy, heavy, epic...all in this excellent song.
