Sleep Token - Calcutta Lyrics

I figured it out a few days ago..

I get a mixed Chris Martin & Callum Scott sound out of the singers voice

Fell in love with 'Jaws' and have been falling deeper with every song. I'm so glad I found this band.
Worship.

@Lindsi Wooldridge The Jaws video is a seductive haunt!

This guy sounds so stupidly good live. Just like the recordings.

Aaron Meacham Going to see them Dec 1 and this makes me even more excited.

I just first heard this band live last week waiting to see Polyphia. couldnt agree more. Same feeling when I first saw Leprous. Cant believe live and studio vocals are near identical.

someone should tell dragonforce that maybe being able to play your songs live, or recording songs that you CAN play live has some perks. People appreciate.

Awesome🎸💙

Thats 100% Jordan Hunt. Same teeth and facial structure. Either way this band is reallly really good

Frank Wallace Not giving anything away but it is not Jordan Hunt

@Chesley H. Well crap i thought i had it figured out. Either way this band is amazing!!

@Frank Wallace yeah I thought it was him too, but they have different vocal tones in their chest voice. Hunts voice is rounder, you can hear the classical training more. Vessel's is more R&B trained. I still have yet to figure it out, though I'm thinking Dan Smith

I'm from Calcutta, India!

আমিও 😊

How are these guys not much bigger??

No shit. I was introduced to them yesterday and haven't stopped listening. I can't believe most of their videos have under 100k views.

It's weird how teeth can be so beautiful yet so menacing all at once.

Absolutely. I think this EVERY TIME I watch

Dont get why they are touring with the likes of Issues and Lil Aaron... 🤷

HOUDiNi although I’m a huge fan of issues I’m in the same boat. The style of music and the persona that the two bands have is entirely different. I’m stoked to see them both though.

Literally the weirdest shit ever but I dig it

JAMES ARTHUR is that you ?!?!?!

I just want to see the people performing this song. The performance reeks of passion but the video is nothing but production.

it’s like if James Blake fronted Deftones. i fw it

Hands down best song ever to f*** to

Im gonna give this a try. Hopefully i can last 7 minutes haha

Gives me heavy agent fresco vibes which is a great Thing :O

agent brought me here

Worship

Does anyone else get a kind of Mr.Bungle vibe here? Mr.bungle 2019?

This is so damn unique sounding

I was the 999th like! I hope you guys blow up!!!

Its as if Tesseract, the contortionist, deftones, and ghost had a child

Yeah, I thought of The Contortionist meets Amber Run or Bastille

Ghost no.

Fucking amazing

A song named after my city, wow. Anybody know the reason behind choosing this name in particular, for the song?

I'm sure it has to do with something that happened to vessel in Calcutta

Can anyone explain the title of the song?

Greetings fellow worshippers, I have created a community on PSN Communities on PS4 in dedication to Sleep Token and 'Sleep'. The motive is to gather fans, worshippers, to come together to talk about the band we know and love and to grow as a community, also to spread the message of 'Sleep'. With that said, if you're on PS4, and enjoy playing video games and love Sleep Token, just go to communities and search 'Sleep Token', follow and I'll be sure to accept as soon as I can.

WORSHIP.
PRAISE HIM.

Noice, anyone play Destiny 2?

Worship

What a masterpiece. I've had this on repeat ever since I heard it. PLEASE come to the US at your earliest convenience! <3

P R A I S E B E T O S L E E P

Slaanesh approves.

sound slike the guy from everything everything. Does anyone know who these guys are?

@Just a normal run-of-the-mill Nigga which bands for example,?

Happy one year from this amazing EP. WORSHIP

Every time I listen to any of their songs. Something new appears and I've never come across something so beautiful. I can go on with the compliments but it would end up as an essay on why their music is everything.

Does anybody have the lyrics to this song?

axionknyght in the description my dude

I am caught... I love these guys and the way they write..

really beautifully written song - the mask/cult thing is a bit lame though... why not just let the music do the talking?

wderrick87 That's part of their reasoning behind it if you read the interviews. They don't want to be known as a band, they just want the music to be heard by people if that makes sense. To them the music is more important than any fame the individuals would receive

Spotify weekly coming up with the goods again. This is fucking sick

Absolutely love the music but I'm really confused about the actual origins of the bad, from what I've heard they're some kind of cult that worships a deity called sleep? If anyone could explain more I'd be v grateful.

They are as much of a cult that Slipknot guys are actual clowns.

I'm guessing the cult thing is their gimmick, kinda like how Ghost has their whole thing going on

This is so unique and amazing, you have a new fan for as long as you guys exist! Worship

This beyond excellent and incredibly dynamic. It's like Sigur Ros, Everything Everything, Massive Attack and ISIS all came together and birthed this incredible musical creature.

David Davenport definitely get the sigur Ros vibes here

Dude, you my nigga now! Who the fuck else remembers Isis? I suppose it's a good thing they stopped releasing music before......well you know.

@The Modern Day American John Lennon can u send me isis music .....

I wish you didn't allcaps Isis

Just heard of this band from seeing them live and my god they are so good live!

Damn right they are

Was not expecting that guitar to come in like that. So sick.

Been listening to Sleep Token since there first single track, very interesting bang I believe. This is coming from that listens to death metal so yeah it's a lovely bang that needs to be Worshipped ♡ this is my favorite track.

7 or 8 strings guys?

RAN_ doomer 7

Space X-periments 8 actually

7 on this recording.

Dave Matthews?

Its not too hard to figure out if you dig enough :)

@Dan P where do I dig

Coldplay's Chris Martin if he grew up listening to Deftones.

Majid Jordan too!

Bro yes!

This needs 1 million more views!

Vessel Identity search: Caligula's Horse (Jim Grey)
Music sounds similar with dulcet vocals leading into djenty breaks. The lyrics to the following song mention 'nothing lasts forever,' a paragon of their worship of Sleep, according to an interview where it is mentioned twice.

Absolutely no chance

Whoa. WhoaWhoaWhoa. I am speechless. This is beautiful.

Thanks Metal Hammer. This is One of the best songs i've ever heard.

glad you found some new music through the CD!

I also found them through metal hammer. In the live show reviews (which are genius btw, they tell you what the band sounds like as well as reviewing the performance .) was reading a festival show, and I saw a picture of the singer throwing up a middle finger, reading an unidentifiable book, but it had the same ascetics as religious documents. Then the caption underneath stated Sleep Token: Anonymous awesomeness. I read the paragraph about the show. I remember the words through a hazy shroud, wierd, beautiful, interesting. Looked them the fuck up immediately and MIND FUCKING BLOWN!

So good. Music about the deity of sleep. Interesting article I read about this group.

I been playing this song n the rest of thier songs for a week now n I can say this is a very unique singer. The slow pace of there music reminds me of Tool but I can't compare. They're like a romantic rock/electro which I love about them. Very different

HORNS UP! \m/

Fear me for I suffer

Reminds me of a Rammstein video with Kings of Leon sound

sounds like lead singer from Bad Rabbits

Jimmy Stabler well that couldn't be further from the truth. I think he sounds like mick Jagger. See how silly that's sounds?

Try Bastille

More like Nuclear Rabbit.

It's the falsetto

to quote owen wilson "WOW"

Vessel? LOL.
It's obviously Gareth Mason from Slice the Cake, Musica Masonica etc. Not exactly a secret when the members drop they're in the band on Facebook. #BitTooPretentiousForMe

James Joyce it’s not him.... if you dig enough you can find out who it is though...

@Dan P where do we dig?

Where do we dig?

... this doesn't sound remotely like Gareth Mason haha Jason Hunt and Dan Smith are the best guesses so far, but I don't think its them either

I figured it out from videos on here.. Guy has a channel with 260 subs that just does singing.. Its def him

Ｗ Ｏ Ｒ Ｓ Ｈ Ｉ Ｐ

this song hurts me

This is what Steven Wilson tried to make in To The Bone, but this does it better

JayB B That's a bit too far a comparison, both SW and Sleep Token are masters of composition and production, with their distinctive traits. Love both

I just discovered this band and man, sounds sooo beautiful and different. That voice is heaven, sounds like a mixture beetween the Kings of Leon's frontman and Sam Smith.

Joan Sebastian Valderrama
I thought there was a hint of Sam Smith in there too!

This song probably isn't about what you think it's about. At first glance is seems to be a sweet, innocent, and caring song.

The truth couldn't be any further from this. It's a poetic masterpiece.

I mean can you explain what it's about for me?

@Brian Williams read the lyrics mate

this is one of the sickest fucking bands I ever listen to since Arcane Roots. Its like R&B, indie alt rock mixed with Djent. This is amazing.

great voice

Oly J his solo stuff is cool too, dude is an accomplished pianist!

Dan P solo stuff?

Dan P do you know who he is?

Dan P I really just want to listen to this guys solo work lol

As do i

wow. just wow.

PREORDER?!?!?

Godamn beautiful

goooooooosebumps incoming!

Incredible! So good like!

*god like

I check literally every day in hopes of preorder links

Soon...

The future is now, old man.

so good. helps that I come from Calcutta the city

muji Hawa song

Sounds like needtobreathe

I clicked on this video just to see what the heck the thumbnail was.

Hate the vocals so much, but can't help but love the awesome arrangement.

Stop smoking crack buddy, life gets much better ;-)

Andrew Oliver dude his voice is epic

LUMBERTHON yeah, everyone loves the exact same singing style as the fans of this band, or else they are smoking crack. That's exactly how it works.

Philosophical Skeptic precis ;-)

Lo compartimos en "Todo Rock Murcia"

KOLKATTTAAAAA

As always setting the benchmark one step higher with every release.
Your songs will live on forever.
WORSHIP

The perfection of linear songwriting. Amazing.

WORSHIP.

Suicide Donkey worship [2]

Like butter! Diggin it.

Worship.

Musica Masonica Slice the Cake!

@AntisporAntispor it's not. they are Australian, sleep token are British

#Worship ❤

This is fuckin sick

Bah bah bah bah bah. We're lovin' it.

Novena if I turn up the volume I can "manifest pain at the core of pleasure"

Finally something unique again in the world of todays music.
Following them since their first single. Big fan of that voice and the way they compose music.

tur0k2 same for Red Sky...

To me it still feels like Numetal with soft vocals

Prog ?
Anyway, if you like that band you need to check out Arcane Roots, Leprous, Agent Fresco, to name a few !

@Space X-periments shoegaze metal

I just found out about these guys. Absolutely fantastic.
