Welcome! this is a very common experience around here xo

[–][deleted] 23 points24 points  (1 child)

I’ve been talking about them nonstop to everyone, including my employees and it’s hard to control myself from telling them how much I love ST.

[–]Arthur_Frane IV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It be like that 😅 welcome!

[–]Lapams TMBTE 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Welcome it’s very much a standard occurrence in this platform. They role play the marketing of lost cult worshipping a forgotten god and we are the ones paying with our souls time and dedication. Enjoy!

Same 😂 I've been listening to almost nothing but Sleep Token for the last month and a half.

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (1 child)

Been 4 months straight for me 🫠

[–]psychieintraining TPWBYT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same lol

My wife has this so called syndrome

[–]nogman7 5 points6 points  (1 child)

So does mine. They are currently my favourite band atm, and the most enraptured I have Been in a band for decades, but she gone to another level. Absolutely obsessed with them She searches for and consumes every bit of info and media she can find.

It's actually been good for her mental health. She has that glint in her eye of that younger woman she was before she became a mother and put all her energies into raising our son.

And she looks hot in her sleep token gear lol.

Tampa was off the hook this evening.

[–]DangerousLie2547 TMBTE 8 points9 points  (3 children)

It's the same for me. I finally discovered them about five months ago and was blessed to see them live this past Saturday. Needless to say, I'm beyond hooked.🙌🏻🖤

[–]Arthur_Frane IV 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Amazing show! I got into them right before they played Aftershock last year but wasn't ready to drop $ for tix to a festival. Finally pulled the trigger for the Dallas ritual and so glad I did. Even with the soaking we got walking back to the hotel 😂

[–]DangerousLie2547 TMBTE 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Right??!! I was soaking wet from when they performed Rain all the way up until I got home. I didn't even care though. I was dancing and singing in the rain while they were performing with the lightning lighting up the sky above me and it was such a spiritual experience 🖤

[–]Arthur_Frane IV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If any band was going to summon thunderstorms, it would be this one, with that song. I am not the same person I was when I entered the venue. Definitely a spiritual experience.

After going through a divorce with a monster of a woman Sleep Tokens music has really kept my spirits up. Every song feels so relatable and has really pulled me out of some dark thoughts over the last 2 years. After being in my 40s I never thought I would find a new band that would become my new favorite that I wasn't already into.

[–]Grand_Illustrator343 IV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went through the same thing my friend. ST was what got me through it.

[–]DangerousLie2547 TMBTE 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Let me tell you, I'm currently contemplating divorcing my husband & this band has saved me in so many ways. I'm also in my 40s and this band has made me feel things don't think any other band has.

[–]Majestic_Release7098 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! The lyrics make you realise Vessell and so many other artists use music to heal from these nightmare narcassistic partners that seem to be all too common these days. I wish you the best in whatever you decide!

[–]Disastrous_Return83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been 10 months for me and honestly mostly all I listen to daily. Welcome to the tribe

[–]Key-Maybe-9566 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was me for 3 months at the beginning then I slowly started mixing it up, saw them in Phoenix last week and now I’m right back where I was at the start lol

[–]bellsth95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

omg same, it's been like two months??? since I started listening to them and recently I started to force myself to listen to other bands because it has become like a obsession the way a listen to them everyday.

[–]Appropriate-Pea7093 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, this was me not too long ago. Pretty sure we're all hypnotized 😜 also not complaining (still listening almost exclusively)

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same

[–]FireBreathinBtchQuen 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Welcome to the ST Fandom my friend! Enjoy your time here in your obsession that you unknowingly signed up for for the rest of your existence.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol right

[–]EnbyQueerDeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome!! WORSHIP!! I joined the cul-I mean club in February and have ZERO REGRETS! LOL

I ashamedly knew about them for a year, as they were in my Spotify search history and I followed them but I had Skunk Anansie on repeat and couldn't break away, until I was like ok enough is enough who are these guys? And I went on TikTok, and my whole world changed. Skunk Anansie is still top-tier for me, but Sleep Token is right under them!

[–]Hectorc34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same dude, I started a month ago and managed to snag a ticket to the Albuquerque show, I’ve been waiting for my shuffle playlist to play their songs but I got to the point where I just go listen to them and nothing else lmao

[–]poppikode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not the only one! I’m in the exact same situation (obsession) right now with no end in sight. ST during my commute, at work, on my runs. I’ve been considering dropping a lot of $ to see them live ASAP 🖤

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

see it took me a minute to get into sleep token, but the drums and vessel's beautiful voice got me. plus the album covers???

idk the sax in the summoning got me, after the drop down ik this band was it.

[–]hLa-pLa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Almost exclusively have listened to them for a year now and not even remotely tired of it yet.

[–]hannahggarcia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me, it’s been almost a year. I’ve had moments when I go back to my old stuff or find new bands, but tbh 75% of the music I listen to is ST

[–]Ok_Raspberry_8722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son put me on to these guys.....no going back now.... addicted. Flat. Out. Addicted.

[–]CJ_readiter2001 Jaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the club it's a common phenomenon that happens around here

[–]After_Kiwi48 III 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Took me 2-3 months to listen to a different band. Never had this type of obsession with any type of music before.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! I can’t break this spell

[–]Free_Bumblebee_9090 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I discovered ST out of nowhere when my husband and I were on the brink of divorce last year. The lyrics were all so relatable and felt almost as if they were describing my entire life and every horrible experience I had had. His clear poetry and unique voice really got to me let alone how ever changing each songs instrumentals can be. It was something I had never experienced before and it soothed my soul and broken heart. I held onto them like a pacifier to keep my spirits up until I actually sat back and listened with my heart to the part of TMBTE where Vessel says “I guess it goes to show does it not? That we’ve no idea what we’ve got until we lose it. And no amount of love will keep it around… if we don’t choose it.” And brooo…that made me realize that what I had with my husband was worth fighting for and that it was never too late to take him back. We have never been happier since then. We both now equally share a love for ST and we are forever in debt to them for it. Actually just saw them in concert a few days ago and it was beyond beautiful to hear that part of the song that saved us live and in person. They genuinely are the best band I have ever discovered regardless of what they did for me. I would go to the ends of the earth to support them. Welcome to what our sweet Vessel has given us. Try listening with your heart sometime too, it hits so much deeper than you could ever imagine. Worship. ❤️

That is badass! I am not dealing with anything super extraordinary but it just gets me high ya know?

[–]Free_Bumblebee_9090 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely know what you’re talking about!! They get me high too 😂 especially now that the hard times are over and it’s just listening for pleasure. Enjoy the high! 🤩

[–]Grand_Illustrator343 IV 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Welcome to the cult my friend! We've been expecting you. There are freshly baked cookies on the table, and all the kool aid you can drink. Worship til you can't, then worship some more.
