    I can't believe i never realised this before but the video also draws parallels to "I look for scarlet and you look for ultraviolet". I wondered why he was holding a light and perhaps that's him reaching out...

    You are by far and away my favourite reactor on the ST journey. Insightful, appreciative, and genuinely in love with the music. Can't wait for the next two songs, and I'll be here all the way to Euclid (no spoilers!)

    The amount of passion and real emotion in Vessel’s voice on the last chorus makes me cry every time. I’ve really enjoyed watching you join us in worship. I hope we all can go to a live ritual someday 🛐

    I appreciate how respectful you are of Vessel's identity. I personally am not interested in knowing who he is because in many ways, it doesn't matter. It may also detract from my enjoyment of them as a band so I will abstain intentionally and maybe down the road when I'm ready, I will find out who he is. We as a community need to enforce a respectful silence on his identity as a sign of respect for his wishes.

      @eliahdayton3448. I have a feeling that somewhere down the line, Vessel will "unmask" himself. He has already confirmed his identity within the lyrics of two songs on TMBTE. I have been aware of all the identities of the members of Sleep Token for several years now and I actually discovered them by accident. It has not detracted for my love of their music but I sometimes wish that the mystery was still there. The only upside is that I got to listen to Vessel's previous band and discovered a couple of gems of songs that he had previously done. Hopefully, if Vessel does "unmask" then everyone else can go back and listen to his previous works! Stay safe 🤘 ✌️

      Hi Brian, upon hearing that Take Me Back to Eden was the concluding part of the trilogy and then seeing the Euclid guardian I was concerned about Vessel unmasking himself.
      I then remembered his message from April 2022 during the Lafayette ritual when he said “I am nothing without this music. I am nothing without this mask.”
      Given these words I think it’s highly unlikely Vessel will unmask himself.

    Sleep token have fantastic fans and the people that do know his identity keep it a secret, the last album actually give hints. The last bands music is fantastic. I love how you delve into the lyrics and give us your opinion. Thank you.

    I so so so love the way you interpret all of the lyrics. Very similar to how I have interpreted them, but in each song, you point out some things that I've never thought of. I really appreciate these videos! 🙏🏻🖤✨️ Tell the pup that I said hi! 🙋🏼‍♀️ and thank you for being respectful of Vessel's anonymity.

    Love the journey that you've gone through and now know who Vessel is! As much as I absolutely respect the anonymity Sleep Token want to have, I kinda wish at some point we might be able to talk openly about his past creations because there's so much that can be dissected and discussed about.
    PS: lovely to see Millie back on the channel! So glad she's doing well

    Milliiiiie, glad to see her back in good spirit!
    And thank you for not spilling the beans about Vessel's identity :) These days, you can hardly type "Sleep Token" in Google without getting the info even when you don't want it.
    I was spoiled quite a while ago when I made a research on his masks for a drawing and it really bothers me that some people seem to be incapable of respecting such a simple whish as "please don't say my name". As far as I am concerned, as long as he does not reveal his name and face himself, his identity remains a mystery to me (but man, you are going to love Euclid, I hope none spoiled you on it :p )
    As a side note, I had to watch that video for the resemblance between Vessel's mask and the Kaonashi (from Spirited away) to click in my mind, and I felt a bit dumb for not realizing it before, though I had noticed the colour codes of the Kabuki make-up ^^
    (Edit: and I had to google "harkening", thank you for broadening my english vocabulary, Jane XD )

    This is one of those rare songs where the video and music combine to be so much greater than the sum of their parts. And separately both are beautiful, but the first time I heard this song was on release and watched the video at the same time and I too got chills. So good.

    I really enjoy going on this journey with you and love your quest to understand the lyrics and the multiple deeper meanings behind them. Thank you for respecting their wish for anonymity, there are a lot of cool references to the old project now that you know what to listen for. A lesser known one but one of my favorites is in "Graves" (BC) and "Like That"(ST) for instance.
    Here are some of my takes on the lyrics :)
    In Dark Signs there is this passage:
    "And if you saw the marks on my dashboard, The new scars that I didn't ask for"
    To me, that suggests he self-harmed because of the trauma and turmoil that the toxic relationship caused him. Marks on my dashboard-new scars.
    High Water has an even more direct lyric: "You are still a perfect reminder of what, All of these scars on my arms are for"
    This leads me to interpret the following passage in Atlantic: "So flood me like Atlantic, bandage up the trenches" to mean he potentially tried to take his own life by slitting his wrists but failed, and the wounds are like trenches in his arms that need dressing/bandages
    The lyric "It's blue light over murder for me" could then affirm it was a failed attempt, and he was taken to the hospital by ambulance. (Blue Light > Sirens)
    Thank you for your reactions!
    Worship :)

    Before we get started (I’m watching and commenting again 😂) I just want to say that this is the song that sealed my love for ST. I listened to this directly after after hearing The Summoning piqued my interest. There are a couple lyrical lines in here that resonated with younger me and the unrequited love I had for a girl back then. We were good friends eventually, but holy hell did I feel those lyrics.
    Bro that lead up with harmonies in the background leading to II’s tasty lil fill, and Vessel’s lyrics (Seems your heart is locked up and I still get the combination wrong) is still my favorite part of the whole song.
    I’m not a fan of interpretive/contemporary/modern dance, but somehow the video changed that for me. I also got chills the first time I saw that scene. Makes me wonder who’s vision the video was. Secretly I sort of hope it was Vessel himself. It’s very artistic and just… good!
    Your face when it hit the loop of him being resurrected after seppuku was great!
    As always I love the breakdown of the lyrics at the end. Watching you take this journey has definitely filled my “chasing the dragon” feeling of wanting to hear them all for the first time again, thank you for that. You’re 100% my favorite reactor.
    Lastly, a lot of us *know who Vessel is. A lot of us found out by accident, god damn RUclips Algorithm! I’m glad you chose to respect the anonymity. Those of us who know yet still respect that are the best of us I think. Love your content bro and hope everything remains going well for you and yours (especially the pupper!)

    So good to see Millie back! I get strong Sisyphus vibes from the video and I almost view the dancers as a metaphorical manifestation of thoughts and feelings he’s doomed to encounter every day forever. Also, I have often thought that the story isn’t linear. Either that or some songs are meant to be “flashbacks” maybe? It’d be interesting to take that theory and try to piece all the songs from the three albums in correct story order, if they aren’t already. Anyway, I’m loving this journey, man. Keep it up!

    Hey puppy! So glad shes back with us. I first watched this video after TMBTE was released (my daughter introduced me on my birthday 5/19😊). I dove in head first immediately. After researching the lore, when i saw this video what struck me first was the red cave and the ribbons tied to the "branches". Everything you surmised about their relationship is kinda what i was thinking. To me, the cave represents a heart (probably Vessels) that could possibly be "bleeding out". The girls dancing in "flowy" robes could represent pain twisting and writhing and he is trying to cut out the pain with his katana. The white ribbons become bandages to block off the arteries to keep from bleeding out. Anyway that's kind of what it looked like to me, it was such a beautiful video to such a sad but beautiful song.
    Vessels ability to make people feel what he feels is amazing. But it lets people know that there are people out there that you can relate to, that someone has gone through what you are going through.
    My daughter and I like to listen to ST anytime we're traveling to a place that takes more than a half hour to get to lol. It's the best type of music to just put in the car and drive.
    The band being anonymous is one of the things that make them so intriguing. I respect the fact that they want to remain anonymous and do not bother to search for who they may be because I like the anonymity. I believe it is important to respect people's wishes and I find that the band wanting the music to stand out on its own without influence from their identities makes them true artists who are not looking for recognition for who they are rather for what they deliver musically. I don't know if any of that made sense lol, but that's just kind of the way I think of it. And I think you're right on the money about the situation between vessel and sleep or him and his lover. Great reaction, love the fact that we actually had a real video and not just a visualizer lol. Till next time!
    ❤ Worship ❤

    Such a beautiful video…it’s seriously top notch in production and choreography! Also…I really love Vessel’s old music as well…it’s just as beautiful! I think he doesn’t mind so much if people know since he pretty much gives it away on the TMBTE album, but of course, it’s respectful not to say his name for those who don’t know and don’t want to, which I totally understand! Did you listen to some of the old songs? Thanks for another great reaction! 🙌🏻

    Hello again, here I am spamming your comments like the Sleep Token geek I am!
    It’s really lovely to see Millie back in your videos wondering what dafuq you’re doing. 😄
    I have only recently re-interpreted this song following the release of Take Me Back to Eden but will leave you to continue to interpret the story on your own as you’ve mentioned.
    Also, respect for the respect. He wears a mask for a reason.
    My main reason for commenting is that the next two songs - Fall for Me and Alkaline - also have videos and Fall for Me hits hard so please prepare yourself.
    Keep up the excellent work! 👊

I'm so sorry he does to😔 I used to be irritated by redundant lyrics, but Sleep Token just makes each repeated lyric go deeper into the soul. ❤ just ouch again. The knowledge of identity seems to make me more sad...i looked into the videos of the past and the overall feeling was i can't see the brick wall between them, but i sure as hell feel it...i hope that made sense.

    9:18 I was thinking it’s actually him being dishonest. He sold himself as someone who he wasn’t. I think much of this whole project isn’t really a narrative about two people. I think it’s more or less about the relationship between gods humans dreams masculine and feminine and time. Very existential. Wrestling with thrownness, and the lie of nihilism
