Overhyped. Overrated. Trash band. Introducing "Sleep Token". >shitty R&B goth vocal intro with hiphop beat>metalcore breakdown last 30 seconds of the songWow, so genius....
was it them or Zeal & Ardor who started as a 4ch troll band and got signed anyway?
Take Me To Eden goes into the same category of enjoyment as Breaking Benjamin and other 2000s hard rock bands for me
>>128253592Are you talking about kendrick ?
>>128253743Zeal & Ardor
>>128253972Except the Breaking Benjamin guy can sing and could probably win an American idol where this guy hounds like a a sick dog
>>128253592Music for CeX workers to shag their fat girlfriends to.
>>128253592They sound like a mix of trip hop and post rock to me. Not metal in slightest. Zoomers are retarded.
>>128253592Yeah, I heard them and they are mid as hell, sampling, shitty ass rapping. In my book the only ones that do rap well these days are Linkinpark. Also they put a fucking saxophone in one of their songs... I'm not even dogmatic with the genre of a song, do whatever sounds beautiful but Rap 99% of the time does not sound beautiful, often you just drag down the quality of a song by adding it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xUHYkgeeE0
>>128253592>check out this metal band brosit's the new rickroll. good one guys. haha. you won't fool me with sombr shilling though.
>>128253972Terrible incoherent opinion
>>128253972Higher highs and lower lows, so I get it. >>128253592It's impressive how bands like S/T and Turnstile get marketed as metal/core or at least heavy when they are most definitely not on average. Pop music marketing in the 'heavy rock' space has gotten more effective and insidious.
They're not nearly as popular as their shilling would have you believe: they're the #30 most listened to metal band. Not bad but nothing too massive for a band that's been posted EVERYWHERE as the second coming of Slipknot.
>>128257205Because as poppy as slipknot is they're at least heavy.
Ass
>>128258392I kinda love the fact even "anti-elitists" or whatever the fukkk they think they are are like "nahh this isn't fukkking metal" regarding Sleep Token. Makes me wanna like the shit.
>>128257171Turnstile is alright, and they are definitely like light baby hardcore. My only criticism of them is that their sound is not original and very repetitive. I have put a lot of hours into Time and Space, though - good album. I did not enjoy Glow On.
obsessed
>>128257205> they're the #30 most listened to metal band.What I have heard aint even metal
>>128258498Nice blogpost man.
>>128253592Imagine Dragons fuckin rule. Fuck off back to Pitchfork.
>>128253592The rapping parts are not for me but the metal parts of the songs are pretty good.
Is is possible to be overrated when you're critical response has been uniform revulsion?
>>128259006Literally the same breakdowns as 2011 Asking Alexandria. Not impressive.
>metal fans when Sleep Token headline Download, sell out a US arena tour in minutes, and hit #1 on the mainstream album charts in dozens of countries including the UK and USIf they're "not metal" why do you care lmaoStick to your twangy tinny buttrock which is only classified as another genre because the band members and fans think they're tough because they wear denim and leather or something???
>>128262205>fakeass "metal" band sells out to get normie pop music money>dude stop being elitist leave the millionaire band aloneStop being a fake metal fan
