SLEEP TOKEN pack an album’s worth of atmosphere into three tracks, crafting an enthralling, darkly phantasmagorical journey through the recesses of the human subconscious.

A mysterious, masked band supposedly in thrall to an ancient deity, Sleep Token craft a blend of thunderous tech-metal and sparse soundscapes drenched in cold beauty. Intriguing.

It's a very solid EP, I like the use of synths and electronic elements, yet it does sound like they were still trying to find their sound here. All of the songs have good production though, maybe some of the vocals could've been better, but Vessel was definitely just getting into the flow of things, he still sounded good though. I especially like the last track.
FAV TRACKS: Jericho, Nazareth
LEAST FAV TRACKS: N/A
Brief Review: a more interesting project coming from ST, although I still wouldn’t say I’m a massive fan of their sound in general still. Still, gotta say some bangers on here at least.
Everyone gushes over Nazareth, but Calcutta tho? We're not gonna talk about Calcutta?
Oh.....well, it was mid while it lasted. Now we're back to the Sleep Token that we know, and love to hate. The only thing that doesn't make this painfully insufferable as the others, is that it's a little more creative and passable. And it's just overall short, which I'm okay with at this point....yeah that's really about it. Really nothing else to talk about, this is basically an EP of the band's sound we're used to at this point.

I would argue that this is one of their greatest works to date. It's not heavy are anything, but it's just beautiful and insanely well made. Jericho has aspecially a really smooth vibe that I really like. Calcutta is a great emotional opener that has a great buildup and Nazareth is just perfectly written. I would argue that this is flawless. Way better than "One"

The "Something in the way you lay" bit is incredible, I really wish it kept the momentum it started with for longer

I was talking to someone about Sleep Token and he's legit only heard Nazareth which he liked and had no idea they're doing the rnb pop thing they're doing now lmao
