I miss pre-Tilian DGD too. Get Jonny back in there tbh. I don’t like the new song. Andrew has a nice voice but it seems like Eidola is more his style. DGD ain’t it. He sounds weird with them. Tilian was even better, tho I understand why they cut away from him. But god do they sound bad now

The music here is good, but man, the fanbase is insufferable:

“Sleep Token’s Even in Arcadia Made Me Remember How to Dance

At first, this album felt like a stranger. I played it passively—half-listening, half-distracted—and walked away shrugging. But then I gave it space. Headphones. Darkness.

Now I’m obsessed.

It’s not just genre-fluid—it’s a resurrection of feeling. One track cradles you in haunting alt-R&B, the next hurls you into prog-metal catharsis, then swerves into synthwave euphoria. But beneath the chaos? A throbbing, undeniable pulse. Songs like “Dangerous” aren’t just heard; they’re felt in the knees, the hips, the reckless sway of a body that forgot how to move until now.

II’s drumming is witchcraft—gospel grooves colliding with math-rock precision, turning even the darkest lyrics into something primal. This album isn’t about dancing; it’s the ghost of every basement show, every kitchen-floor solo moment, every time music made your bones scream "move."

Is it messy? Wild? Unpredictable? Yes. But for those of us who crave music that bleeds instead of bows—that’s the point. Sleep Token didn’t just drop an album. They handed me a reason to dance again, even if it’s just me, the shadows, and this glorious, genreless storm.

For the polyjamorous souls who need music to feel alive. 🖤”

I fucking hate when people say “but then I gave it space”. That’s pretentious cringe even for sputnikmusic dot com.

Kurt was the worst of the 3. Death Star album is worst DGD album and Happiness is overrated. Well Death Star is 3rd worst. I forgot about their two newest albums, but still even Tilian albums were better. He has no range at all with his voice. Even his solo stuff and ALLBs sounds the same. Nah we need Jonny back.

Tilian's voice has no power to it, he sounds almost like he's trying to parody a feminine voice to me. Jonny's voice clashes too hard with DGD's wacky instrumentals. Kurt was the only one that I felt fit.
