I'm 39, grew up in the 90s. And I liked to British bands growing up and all the stuff that was going on at the time, Britney, Backstreet Boys, Green Day... and into the 2000s and so forth.... Sleep Token are the BEST band I've listened to in a long time! A lot of their tracks are bangers and they have a talented piano player and drummer and vocalist. Very impressed.
This song has some similar lines that come straight out of a song from vessel previous work. And i love that he will take parts from previous work and weave it into his music now and also that he has called back to that band in the newest songs too. Vessels story didn't start with sundowning or even the first ep it actually began in 2013. And has just continued. And even back then his lyrics were so heart breaking and dark for someone that was so young.
This is why I have a hard time believing this about a deity and the fact they were recording songs like this and they were together had to be so difficult
Guess what, my homie, there's also a drum playthrough for Like That! II is absolutely delicious! Thanks for the reaction and I hope your puppy is doing better!
I myself fell down the sleep token rabbit hole earlier this summer and I can't get out. I can't go more than a couple days without devoting 3 hours to listen to all of their music from start to finish, and the the cycle repeats again. I really love your thoughts on the lyrics and what Vessel might be trying to explain to us. Worship my brother and keep up the great work.
Totally agree! II is an absolute genius on the drums,..the heartbeat of the band. Have you watched an offering from II? He has a couple, Hypnosis and Alkaline I know for sure. He's amazing! Your hair looks fine 😅, love the reaction as always❤
II is fucking CRISPY. I’ve never heard a drummer blend so well with the rest of the band, yet still show off at the same time. When you watch the drum offerings you’ll see just how fuckin effortless it is for him. Man, so good. I can’t wait to see your reaction to them!
Getting an alert for these reaction videos is my favorite part of the day. I think you’re spot on with the lyrical evaluation too. This is easily the sexiest song ST has (in my opinion). Can’t wait for the next one!
Hey I think he likes it! Also, I'm so happy people can recognize how much talent the individuals within the band have, let alone the band in and of itself has. 'II' is a beast on those drums! I would LOVE to see some kind of sexy solo jazz single/duet with our bassist 'III' and/or pianist Vessel ofc.
I couldn’t help but find out who they were almost instantly when I my friend first showed me them so I’m fortunate enough to know, but I completely agree the fact that the anonymity puts a sort of road block in the way of them getting all the recognition they deserve is such a bittersweet feeling. II is sponsored by some of the biggest companies in the world so at least the drum community knows what’s good. I feel this way about Vessel more than II honestly though since there’s the least amount of information on him out there lmao. every time I watch your videos I’ve looked him up just to see if there’s anything I’ve missed even though I know I’ve seen pretty much everything everyone else has regarding Vessel. I truly can’t wait until they become a bit more public with their identities though like you said, completely respect their choice to stay anonymous because fans are fucking weirdos sometimes. I’m sure that’s a big reason he chose to stay anonymous with this in the first place. knowing his unmatched talent and seat at the table in the music world, he probably would’ve gotten even bigger even faster had he climbed the traditional musical ladder to success.
Even if they never go public, It's pretty badass to just show up, drop some of the most mind bendingly beautiful music of the last 20 years and just disappear into the shadows (when they're done).
@@theprojectjangothere’s a big UK show happening at the end of the year and there’s speculation that it might be their last show ever or for awhile possibly. I haven’t seen them yet but they’re coming to the US in October, so I may have to pay crazy resale prices to see them for the first time just on the off chance that they for some insane reason call it quits after this year 😮 I hope it doesn’t happen though lol. my only guess for the reasoning would be basically what you said. drop some of the craziest and transcendent music in such a short span of time and still keep their sanity by dodging the fame 🤔only time will tell. excited for you to hear the rest of this album then TMBTE 🫡
Yeah, it is not really like Vessel to repeat himself, I am pretty sure it is "catching your Attention" and not intention. And I love the mystery around their identities, but you are not the only one to think that it is borderline criminal that we don't know who ii is, just to give him proper credit :D I am really looking forward for you to discover ii's offerings, it is going to be epic :p
Can you believe the audacity of II to do sidestick paradiddles, especially at that BPM? It’s illegal. You can’t do that. The man has no chill. It’s even more impressive in the drum playthrough.
When you get a chance…go back and watch the video for Calcutta!! Even if you don’t stream it! I don’t know what it is but that is one of my favorite music videos ever
Another fantastic reaction. It’s so clear that you just get it! Please react to the video for the next song The Love You Want. It’s such a beautiful video and it will really help you understand and interpret the song and story. W O R S H I P
Every time I listen to Like That, I wonder just a little bit more if he's saying "talking with razors on your tongue" rather than "braces on your tongue" and I need to know I'm not losing my mind. I just don't hear a "b" in there. And razors would more likely provoke combat than braces? Like, think about the words that are being strung together. I think the whole world thinks the wrong lyrics are correct. And it's razors. Not braces. This is the shit that keeps me awake at night. 😩

II’s Drumming Is On A Different Level! Such a good Drummer and Vocalist in the same band, it’s like heaven for my ears!
True!
Guess what, my homie, there's also a drum playthrough for Like That! II is absolutely delicious! Thanks for the reaction and I hope your puppy is doing better!
II is seriously my favourite drummer ever! Love the way he plays as well you’ll see when you watch the play throughs 🖤

I cannot wait for you to check out the three Offerings from II. Hypnosis, Like That, and Alkaline. They're so beyond unreal.
Best believe I am on it like shit on velcro.
@projectjango I also can’t wait for you to react to those offerings!!
You give me SO MUCH more love for this affair I am wrapped up in with this band.
Thanks Mate 🙏

Well shucks. you're too kind! 🤘🙂
I agree with your thoughts on ii - his style's so crispy and I can't get enough. My favorite for sure. Loving your analysis!
I appreciate that!
I love your reviews- so passionate 🤌🏻

@@AaronSmithDrumsit better not be because I will be so dismayed. Tho if vessel popped up as some soulful r and b dude I wouldn't complain
I'll watch every one you post! Keep em coming!
🤘🙂
The drumeo interview of ii os absolutely fantastic! That guy is a revelation on the kit.
Always look forward to your ST reactions!
Looking most forward to every track after alkaline. 2nd half of this album is the real star here.
Yeah, I definitely like that.

The absolute GALL. The NERVE.
Best reactions on yt
Too kind. But thank you!
ii's drumming is amazing... he is definitely top 3.. my top 2 are still Neil Peart and Danny Carey
Hell yeah!
When you get a chance…go back and watch the video for Calcutta!! Even if you don’t stream it! I don’t know what it is but that is one of my favorite music videos ever
I have seen it. It's pretty great if not a little unsettling 😅
@@theprojectjango oh good!! Haha yeah it’s pretty dark…but that’s what I love about it! It’s dark and artsy!
Another fantastic reaction. It’s so clear that you just get it!

Dammit, now that you say that, I can totally hear "razors" too (and I also think it would make more sense) .
What is REAL ANYMORE
@@theprojectjango 😂
It’s razors on your tongue not braces
