With fans so ravenous in their worship, Sleep Token have gifted them with two new songs to appease their hunger.
As time turned to midnight on January 5, 2023, the emotionally driven “Chokehold” arrived first. As 24 hours passed, “The Summoning” audaciously followed.
Both tracks boldly explore and develop elements that keep Sleep Token’s music vastly removed from any kind of pack, howling at a moon distinctly their own.
Anonymous, silent, masked, armed with a staggering vocal range, a deft touch on the keyboards, plus a live approach that is never less than fully engaged; Sleep Token is the unique, broad-based vision of one individual.
The band has a 5-date, headline UK run ahead of them this month, with several shows at storied venues like the O2 Academy already sold out.
What comes next, only time will tell, but what’s certain is that it won’t be bound by convention.
