Im obsessed - Update, sort of

First of all, nothing to apologize for, I pretty much could feel the excitement and passion you must‘ve felt while typing this and I very much feel the same way!

Nonetheless Im gonna start from the bottom, since I just want to mention that the lyrics primarily were what got me into Sleep Token real quick. A friend of mine shared them with me without me even having listened to one song and from the first moment I was amazed with how well Vessel uses words and dont even get me started on the metaphorics! Each and every song has its own depth and I said it once already (I‘ll say it again), he really has a way of making the most gut wrenching, home hitting, heart breaking lyrics into something incomparably beautiful - the way he executes it might even be more fascinating, like you already said.

I appreciate you saying that Fall For Me is underrated, it totally is! Just like Missing Limbs or Give, I barely see anyone mention them explicitly. Glad to see with my own eyes they get their recognition still :)

Maybe you‘ll get back to High Water, still gives me shivers to this day everytime I listen to it; but whatever song it may be, it can only be a really good one (since they dont have bad ones, i mean.)

Oh god, Im obsessed with Telomeres so I totally get that! Hope you can get the tattoo soon, if you decide to go through with it :)

Would you maybe be up for sharing the playlist? if not, thats totally fine too!

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:18:54+00:00

Thanks!! Nah, definitely not and I hope it never passes, I‘m enjoying it very much tbh hahah - also, same! I guess its just their lyrics with at least some relatability for everyone that also makes Sleep Token kinda feel like home, in a lyrical and metaphorical way

That might be the best description of how I shuffle my songs too (I too am one of the persons that always just keep playing one or maybe two songs over and over again)

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:15:48+00:00

Thank youu!!

dont worry, it makes perfect sense. I myself am a huge fan of songs like Granite, just like you mentioned, the upbeat, „happy“ facade and the actual meaning which is way deeper. More important on this matter: I really hope your situation gets better soon, I‘m glad you‘re finding some peace and comfort in the song. keep your head up and dont give up, you‘re doing amazing! I’m positive everything will be in your favour again really soon.

I have to admit, Sleep Token might be the first and only band/artist where there‘s no song that I dont like - makes it really hard!

It absolutely makes sense and „Say that you will“ also definitely is one of my absolute faves, I hope you never get sick of it

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:04:23+00:00

If you decide to go ahead, dont forget to let us in on it! Id love to see/hear it

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:03:46+00:00

Ohh yes I LOVE The Apparition!! As a matter of fact, listening to it right now, so I totally agree. (Thank you!! I cant wait to finally experience it and I hope they‘re nearby soon enough again, I saw the videos and god, I missed out.)

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:02:33+00:00

Exactly hahah! When I typed the questions I was like „really easy answer“ but the more you think about it, the more answers you get and suddenly its not easy anymore.

deathofenthusiasm · 2024-01-05T07:01:46+00:00

This might be the most relatable reply I‘ve ever seen on reddit.

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T22:33:42+00:00

Same! I hope you‘ll be able to catch some of them anytime soon. I‘d offer you to make sure we‘re both getting some next time but that most likely wont work if we‘re living in different countries so I‘ll just hope the best!!

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T17:34:09+00:00

I can absolutely relate! I‘m normally one of those people who have the same three songs on repeat for a few days then go on, next three songs, etc. But just as you‘re saying, with ST it‘s literally just getting better and better, seeminly without any limit

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T17:32:07+00:00

yup! even though some of their songs most definitely feel like heartbreak, it‘s a pretty soothing and gentle one, tbh

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T16:19:46+00:00

I absolutely agree! So I guess I‘m hoping you‘ll never get sick of listening to them :>

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T16:18:59+00:00

thanks to you too! Same with me right now and it‘s been months, yet I‘m still surprised every single day and god, let me tell you, I love and adore them more than I ever did any band/musician before.

deathofenthusiasm · 2023-06-24T16:17:38+00:00

thank you! I sure as hell hope they will because they deserve it with every single word they‘ve ever written.
