So personally I think this is Sleeps' song. The journey of how they/them passed through time, ever changing from a God on Olympus to the technology of our phones. Sleep is everywhere, which ties back to Vessel in Chokehold where he says that we're acting out of our duty to Sleep by being constantly awake. Most of us nowadays use our phones to put us to sleep by doom scrolling or watching videos, inviting Sleep in. So maybe Vessel gets to speak his voice in one song and Sleep responds in the next song? He does use a different vocal style in each song.
Very good analysis! Great thinking. Love your input into analysing the music! I definitely believe that there is deep thoughts like this behind building everything they do.
@Micha Reacts maybe this album is Vessel trying to get back into Eden while Sleep is trying to pull him back into the world? Maybe TPWBYT is a Vessel album sinking deeper into being with Sleep and Sundowning is what would happen if Sleep and Vessel were in complete harmony? This new album could be them clashing against each other. While Sleep in done dancing to the alarms on Vessels' phone, Vessel is staying sleep, preventing they/them from continuously evolving?
The piano, vocals and jazzy percussion hits on this tracks are just * chefs kiss * The late night, penthouse top floor, elegant romancing vibes be REAL! :D
I’m so glad that I watched Will Ramos’s cover of Hypnosis. This band is something truly special. I haven’t had someone’s writing, and composition skills hit me so hard.. on every single song! I love your reactions btw❤️
I won't lie. This one really grabbed me. It's gotta be my favorite (so far). The quirky complex beautiful composition, the absolute perfection of the performance. You don't describe it, because what it means to you is different from what the next person gets from it. And being able to do that is genius. Great reaction!
Each of the first 5 songs on the Album grabbed me for individual reasons; Chokehold for the passion, Summoning for the progressiveness, Granite for the lyrics, which speaks to this time in my life, and Regia for it's beauty.
Their evolution of their sound is so amazing. Its sleep token. But levelled up. So ready for this album. 4 songs in and not one has missed. They are all good. But this one hits different. Might be my fav so far.
Ok, first off - howdy! 👋🏼 Second, this is my first time listening to this song and I wanted to see your reaction to it as I know you love them haha! 🕺🏻 How are you, Micha?
Just found your channel and watched a bunch of your reactions. Awesome stuff! Judging by some of the things you like and the fact that you're a singer, I think you'd dig Reliqa. They put out what I'd consider the best ep of 2022.
Great reaction. I suggest you try the official live MV of Play, freedom , Domination and the MV of blooming, dice, choose me, real existence from band-maid. Good day.
"My love is an animal call cutting through the darkness bouncing off the walls. Trimmed teeth on a broken jaw. Following a blood trail frothing at the mouth. These days I'm a circuit board integrated hardware you cannot afford. Perfect start to a perfect war pulling on the roses and picking out the sun. I can't quite reach out. My past is a holy book a call from Olympus ringing off the hook between the pain and the way you look I'm stuck in a time when the mountains shook and these days I'm a picture frame screaming out the sunshine singing in the rain. Sugar on the blood cells common on the brain eden and her vices running through my veins" TALK YOUR SHIT VESSEL. Idk who hurt you but I'm so glad she did lmao
Vessel is incredible talented at writing lyrics, he's my inspiration when it comes to learning and writing my own texts. The way he puts emotion into words is insane!!
@@michareacts same! I find him so inspiring. The way he mixes all of his influences and styles into one song at a time. It gives me chills. The man sings his heart out every time and it's beautiful
@@michareacts I just hope they come to town soon. My wife is so hooked on them. I caught her blasting them while she was In the shower and I was like babe your really bumping sleep token I'm proud of you she goes "this is your fault" lmao
@@michareacts this to me is such a great progression in metal. I've had a guitar around my neck or a mic in front of me since I was 15 and I can say. This is literally the most refreshing sound I've heard since I found deftones
his voice is just perfect. it makes me so emotional. everyone should give this band a try
on my first listen i wasn’t that big a fan of this track, but im like 25 listens deep now and its just a beautiful song
yesyesyes

This is actually a crazy deep analysis and now I need to go back to all these singles and analyze them now in this new light, thank you for this
@@RespiteofChampions of course!! Worship 🙏
Did you really just say "how they/them passed through time"? 😂 that doesn't even make sense.. cringe af
The piano, vocals and jazzy percussion hits on this tracks are just * chefs kiss *
The late night, penthouse top floor, elegant romancing vibes be REAL! :D
I've replayed the piano solo into that heavenly voice so many times. I'm like an obsessed little fanboy at this point. They're too good.

I was at that gig in Birmingham. What a night it was. They absolutely killed it. Love the reactions 🤙

*Worship* 🔥
I would have said the same about the album drop until there were 2 empty pedestals in the video 😮. I’m loving watching their popularity grow so fast.
Just started watching you about 2 hours ago you are awesome. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Amber 💙

Right! I think we're going to be in for a treat when they drop the album. Buckle up guys!
This one feels like I’m sat in a jazz lounge. 😂
YES! 😄
Lol for real, I pictured Periphery and sleep token just chilling in a room sipping tea 🍵☕ and chatting music. 🤣
Sleep Token never fails
This song is just a beautiful masterpiece

MORE SLEEP TOKEN PLEASE

Thank you so much!! Will write that one up! 🔥
Honestly this is baby making music i love this so much, it oozes sex appeal

😁 YAY!
*WORSHIP*
I now love singing with an English accent...thanks to Vessel.
I'm from Seattle LMFAO.

Imagine Dragons laugh at this and Elton John falls to sleep to it! 😂
I am still hoping you are reacting to sleep token - blood sport (room the room below). Its just breathtaking.
It is one of my favourite songs! I've heard it at least a million times and will hear it a million times more haha!
could you react to echos of the past by stellaris?
Huh, Vessel plays piano in Sleep Token?
Had no idea. That's insane, considering how piano and keys-driven the album is and how good it all is.
Nah, I could live without that one.
Not my favorite band sorry but love Michas reactions
