DESCRIPTION:
2x12 "Black vinyl Version - With fan worship more intense than ever, and worldwide interest and intrigue growing at runaway speed, Sleep Token are set to reach bold new heights with studio album Number Three. Take Me Back To Eden (an hour-plus of music across 12 distinctive tracks) is Part 3 of a trilogy, a spectacular chapter-closer in the ongoing Sleep Token saga – a saga that kicked off in earnest with debut album, Sundowning (2019).
What comes next, only time will tell, but what’s certain is that it won’t be bound by convention any more than ‘…Eden’, which features probably the heaviest moments thus far recorded by Sleep Token (i.e. ‘Chokehold’ and ‘The Summoning’), along with some of the most commercial and certainly the most emotional, with a slew of other tones, textures and tangents touched on in-between.
Take me Back to Eden sees Sleep Token boldly re-confirming a true love of the epic (the title track is eight minutes plus), whilst further exploring and developing those elements that keep the music removed from any kind of pack, howling at a moon that’s all its own. Take Me Back To Eden: A Glorious Conclusion. A New Beginning.
Sleep Token formed in London in 2016, and they're already notching up their third album for the mighty Spinefarm Records. The band have taken the route of being anonymous with a purposeful move to put the attention on the music (and their supposed deity Sleep), and their pointed, angular take on metal and indie rock stands up to scrutiny. On Take Me Back To Eden they are purportedly closing off a trilogy which began with their debut, although this doesn't mean the end of the band. A good thing to, as they're sounding stronger than ever enmeshing their taut, spiky riffs with electronic textures, dexterous rhythms and canny hooks which keep their appeal broad and persuasive.
