On This Day: June 20 2019

Today in 2019, Sleep Token released the full audio for the first song on their first LP, Sundowning.

The collective slowly released all songs from their first album like singles, although they were not considered as such. This continued until the full album release on November 22 2019.

Teaser video posted to social media.

Link to Youtube audio posted with teaser.

Produced by George Lever. Written and composed by Vessel and II.

It is noted that this song is revisited in Sleep Token’s third album release, towards the end of the twelfth track. A callback, if you will, bringing the three album cycle full circle and to an end.

On This Day: June 19 2020

From June 4 2020 to June 18 2020, the collective posted a series of photos with quotes from songs included on their first album Sundowning. On this day in 2020, they posted a teaser video with a piano track that was the room below version of Blood Sport.

The quotes were as follows:

  • XVI | The light of the sunrise
  • XV | This is a giving, an offering
  • XIV | Forgetting the agony again
  • XIII | Omens in your skies
  • XII | You need a melody
  • XI | Won’t you wait for me
  • X | I just want to give
  • IX | Like fire from the heavens
  • VIII | Show me what you do
  • VII | I am yours tonight
  • VI | As we lie down together
  • V | I can’t win
  • IV | So let’s play
  • III | Even if you won’t believe me
  • II | I’ll only hurt you if you let me
  • I | And the sun begins to fade
