The least cringeworthy of the three. Honestly wish I could get behind this band bc there is something there it's just obstructed by Vessel being such a laughably bad singer.

Huh the album comes out soon. Was expecting it to be one of those "heres half the album as singles" kinda things. Vessels singing sucks, songs inoffensive radio fodder and the drummer could probably go nuts in another project

Probably the weakest of the three songs so far, but I still enjoyed it. It is this albums “The Love You Want.” Simpler song and enjoyed the piano.

Def the weakest of the three, and I really really didn't enjoy Caramel. This is on par with my listenership with Sleep Token tho, I like the heavier tunes and dislike the lighter ones. I hope the album has more stuff like Emergence.

I understand if Vessels voice just isn’t your thing, but saying he sucks is just false, and it’s actually pretty ridiculous to see people saying that….

Vessel can sing but he either overcompensates with prounciations or theres some weird arse thing happening that makes him sound garbled.

This band has had some songs I could somewhat listen to but these three singles are absolutely atrocious. Not sure how anyone can make honest differences between these songs and a track from Imagine Dragons.

Why do I do this to myself. Why do I even try with this band. This song is so boring and goes absolutely nowhere.

Also, if Vessel can actually sing as others have claimed, then he needs to stop drowning his vocals in autotune and effects. It's making him sound incredibly bad. The music in this song isn't even all that bad; its his goddamn vocals mushing their way out over the instruments that makes this awful.

Also a reminder that sellout stadiums/Popular doesnt always equal good music/talent however Commerically? Yeah you did it you won and did the thing and got heckin huge.

Theres probably some mad fucker who has the talent of a god in some small remote shit hole that hasnt made it because of commercial appeal or connections.

I was kinda hoping for them to go outside of the box on this album, given they're so "genre-fluid" or whatever the hardcore fans preach about.

This is just more Sleep Token.

For a band that incorporates so many genres, they sure have trouble incorporating interesting song structures that aren’t completely predictable

There’s a difference between drawing from many genres as a consequence of being mature songwriters with a unique voice and drawing from many genres because your handlers say that’s what makes money

yeah, they weren’t always like this, but in their current iteration they sound like a clumsily put together hodgepodge of “influences teens might like”

not many bands pull from generally more mature demographics early (relative), before converting to something obviously aimed at a much younger audience (as they themselves age)… unless there’s money to be made, of course
