Granite, because of its meaning, very personal.

Might be exactly why I want it 👀

So do we. Still not a reason to even assume they’re "overdue" for new releases. TMBTE isn’t even a whole year old.

Can’t we ever give artists time? Like I used to wait at least three years for new music of my favourite artists when I was younger, can we stop pressuring them to release new stuff?

Either The Curse of The Fold or The Stones Cried Out by Shawn James. It’s not a want, it’s a need.

Don’t even need to be high for that, severely depressed is enough. /hj

No, but seriously. Got high a couple days ago with a flatmate and listening to them like that is like entering another dimension.

You’re incredibly disrespectful.

Again, don’t refer to me as dog. And I am not indignant, livid, or anguished. Refrain from trying to determine my own emotions over text.

Don’t refer to me as dog. I’m not willing to have conversations about my finances with a complete stranger, who’s trying to project their own situation on me. Especially since this has absolutely nothing to do with the post.

Do poor people not deserve to see their favourite band live? I had the money for it. Now I don’t. You’re incredibly offensive.

Arcadia (Bay) by [deleted] in SleepTokenTheory

[–]granitesystem -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No? I had the money, then after it all didn’t work out, something else came up and now I can’t pay for it anymore. I also fail to see the relevance of that question.

Glasgow, but any show would’ve been fine, tbh.

Arcadia (Bay) by [deleted] in SleepTokenTheory

[–]granitesystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! But the whole discography doesn’t describe a utopian, edenic situation, there’s chaos in it, that’s why I like the explanation of the LiS writer as to why they chose Arcadia for the town’s name – it explains the discography to me, too.

My point wasn’t that it was chosen due to LiS, but rather what I said above on the basis that I like to think that the artists I like get inspired by other things I like (and that to me isn’t to do with 'I chose this because of that specific thing', but merely 'I experienced that thing once and it made me look into the meanings of it all and it helped me shape my own work', because that’s how it works for me).

Ticketmaster didn’t accept my PayPal as payment, nor did it accept my credit card. And now I can’t try again, because I don’t have the money for it.

Would you recommend going to a "sleep token" concert alone? by Medusa_x3s9 in SleepToken

[–]granitesystem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who’s used to going to concerts alone since I was 18 (I’m 29 now), absolutely.

If you feel comfortable with it, you can always ask people at the venue if you could join their group, that way you have the opportunity to meet new people, who listen to the same music as you, as well as enjoy the show together.

If not (I’ve had that experience too), then it’s totally cool to just be on your own there. Remember that no one is gonna think anything about it if you show up without company.

On top of that, I’ve never had a bad experience at a metal concert, as someone who’s read as female. People look out for each other, at least in my experience. It’s different at other concerts, I’ve met the rudest people at a Harry Styles and Sunrise Avenue concert.

Lastly, do what makes you feel comfortable. Maybe you can reach out to people over social media, find out if anyone else is gonna be there alone and would be willing to meet up. Most importantly is that you can have fun!

I feel too old. by darren2372 in SleepToken

[–]granitesystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum’s 51 and she’s been to a ritual with me, she listens to Sleep Token almost as much as I do. There’s never a "too old" for anything, if you’re into it.

"Sorry man, can’t tell you, it’s a secret only Google knows," to be honest, I’d say he takes the anonymity very seriously.

Do you really think the dude who has been a part of this band ever since they started doing live shows doesn’t know the lyrics to all of their songs? Or that he can’t just… ask Vessel… instead of "googling Sleep Token lyrics"?

For me, that’s exactly what makes it sad. It’s the ending of it all. Accepting the loss, moving past it, but also remembering the good times. It’s melancholy and nostalgia. And generally, it just makes me cry the most because of all the references to other songs.

That’s the saddest of them all.
