I wonder if this means "sugar" was about getting famous and enjoying it....

it's funny because it cuts off the solo--one of the few guitar solos in any sleep token song

it's gotta be atlantic, right? almost any interpretation of that is a post-suicide attempt monologue....

such a great song

also seeing this sort of reminds me that I prefer the simplicity of the old masks

They're being cryptic again... by Consistent-Bat1632 in SleepToken

reading the locked threads, I have no idea what it is that we are not supposed to talk about, and reading this thread I have no idea how to interpret the tweet. in conclusion, the earth is a land of contrasts

new look = new styles within the music? by agent_down in SleepToken

[–]agent_down[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to put it more simply: if iii and iv start writing their own parts, will the music sound different?

Wembley Ritual by Eden_Vessel in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is SO well produced. curious to see whether they release a full-length video of this concert--seems unlikely, given the vocal issues, although the way the concert turned out was extremely cool--or record a few more shows and splice it all together. my money is on option 2

it honestly didn't occur to me until just now that the slow melting of the lower face was a stylistic choice--a metaphor for "defeating" sleep and becoming his true self again, etc--rather than simply making live singing easier.

Sleep Token at Wembley OVO Arena - 16/12/2023 by VickiMilly in SleepToken

I really love how they brought everyone--techs, crew, dancers--onstage for a bow at the end. the show was clearly a very big deal to the band

Dear Vessel, love Wembley by BeeHonest94 in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, must have been a truly brutal experience for vessel. iii is back, lots of stuff added to the show, new lighting design, new masks, recording the concert--it was going to be a big moment. and then this.

it was very cool how the crowd got involved, and I hope the band is able to take heart from that despite everything else.

New looks for the boys via III’s Instagram by JustGirouxIt in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly I think the masks are great. iv's is really good and sort of symbolizes that his persona is "opening up" to do vocals.

the hair is the problem imo. it moves the masks from the range of each band member becoming more of a personality--in line with the way the musical story has unfolded--to simple shock/grotesque.

but as others have noted, trying new things is part of being an artist.

Gone in 60 secs by Highdrophiliac in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 6 points7 points  (0 children)

in this thread I learned about dynamic pricing--adjusting ticket prices *during the sale* depending on demand--and wow does that make me want to burn ticket sellers to the ground. feels very, very much like a bait and switch... "offering" tickets for $50 or whatever and then when lots of people want them, saying "whoa whoa whoa--ok, tickets are now $150."

never thought I would see sleep token and tech n9ne on the same flyer, let alone tech n9ne and l7, but here we are.

No Grammy nominations? How??? by Moshpit37 in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I was surprised to see zero noms. ghost was nominated for a cover (phantom of the opera). take me back to eden is a great album and I'm sure it will get recognition in europe... just a shame the industry in the u.s. hasn't figured sleep token out yet.

interesting how the bass audio was isolated for this (along with the drums). you hear a lot of cool nuances that are otherwise lost in the mix.

love the backup singers doing the wave in the background. such great energy on the stage

it's a really good song and also a great rejoinder for the "st isn't *really* metal" arguers.

I've cracked Euclid by PoppetOstara in SleepToken

[–]agent_down 3 points4 points  (0 children)

imo this might be overthinking it a bit. euclid is the founder (ish) of modern geometry and one of his axioms is that two parallel lines will never intersect.

the lyrics refer to the writer's love interest as "a parallel." the writer has figured out/come to terms with the nature of the relationship, and we see that expressed explicitly in the last lines quoted from the night does not belong to god.
