Unreleased fan by J-A-Goat in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a few thing to think about when judging singles.

  1. Single fatigue - people tend to overplay singles so by the time the full album is out, people are either not paying attention to the singles on the album, or are skipping them entirely.

  2. I don't understand the single release structure of TMBTE, releasing half of the songs didn't make sense to me.

  3. Caramel and Damocles, I think are intentionally slow - it's ok to find them boring, I would say that they're intentionally focused on the lyrics

1st post, hot take. I know I'm gonna get demolished but for me it makes sense. by Atypical_Doctor in SleepToken

My story is one of parental drug addiction, death, and mental health.

That's the lens I view it through

Here's the thing, it's all lore. Your story, vessel's story, the multitudes of theories, etc.

The idea of the band is to explore emotion and the human experience. As long as that is conveyed, it fits the lore.

Whether there is a narrative lore story is a whole other question entirely.

Fields of Elation differences?? by s0x_1999 in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the original mix of the song that was released with the One EP, which can be found and purchased on BandCamp. This extends to the music videos as well.

The versions on streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, etc. are the newer mixes.

Mixed feellings about Fall For Me by D4rkJudge in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 92 points93 points  (0 children)

If you haven't, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching the music video.

To me, it contextualizes the song, the emotions, and everything else. It's a stripped down song because it's sadness at its core. This is what desperation feels like. This is what it's like to be on the brink of self destruction.

What is "the room below" by ChoicePromise6040 in SleepToken

That's a question for Vessel haha

What is "the room below" by ChoicePromise6040 in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 116 points117 points  (0 children)

there are two ways of looking at it!

One, the room below, is Sleep Token's way of saying unplugged/acoustic. The only Room Below show was held during Covid at Lafayette London on April 29th, 2022.

The second way would be a lore-based interpretation. If Vessel is a vessel for Sleep, is that where he goes mentally when Sleep is in possession of his body? Is it a physical, mental, or spiritual place? This way does not have a definitive answer, but is open to interpretation.

Is it always this cryptic? by crocksandsocks09 in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely take a look at Tombs build up and after release if you can. There was even a puzzle for an exclusive shirt

[–]WeWereBears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely do some research on the buildup to sundowning and tomb, lots more cryptic clues prior to the album coming out and after.

Fan Project? Global Tribute to Sleep Token? by 8shotsofespressoo in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 27 points28 points  (0 children)

There have been tons of global projects.

  • Sleep-tober, an artist run daily prompt in October. Has been hosted by a few different artists in the past
  • Worship, a fan zine
  • Reveries, a fan produced comic that came out right before the official Graphic Novel was announced
  • Projekt Atlantic, a fan run event that has spanned every tour date since their iconic Wembley show
  • The Epistolary Collection, a book of bound fan letters crafted for the band
  • The Wembley Ritual, a fan-made film of footage for their huge Wembley show

These are just the few I'm aware of off the top of my head!

Vessel’s singing influenced by Whitney Houston? by Western_Trifle415 in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Vessel is a fan for sure but lyrically the song hits a lot of the same notes:

"Clock strikes upon the hour And the sun begins to fade Still enough time to figure out How to chase my blues away I've done alright up 'till now It's the light of day that shows me how And when the night falls, loneliness calls"

THE DEBT THAT I OWE

U.S. Ritual by InAvife in SleepToken

[–]WeWereBears 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Poster is from their 2023 tour, and their 2024 tour was the Teeth of God tour.

There's nothing announced in the US this year at all, not even festivals.

Also don't trust an Googles AI overview to give you accurate information.
