This Place Will Become Your Tomb

Brilliant album, from an amazing band.

Album splendido......lo valuto come buona musica senza etichette o generi...... Personalmente inserire gli ST in una singola categoria lo trovo riduttivo......posso solo dire che mi piacciono e anche molto 😉

Das letzte Album von sleep token war überragend.Eines der besten Alben die ich je gehört habe.Dieses hier übertrifft auch fast alles,aber nur fast.Atlantic ist ein Übersong und die danach folgen gehen auch in den Kopf.Vessels Gesang geht unter die Haut und die tiefen Gitarren a la Humanitys Last breath(deathcore) klingt mit den wunderschönen Melodien brachial aber sehr ausgewogen. Perfekt von Pop bis hin zum Metal für alle was dabei.Manchmal hat es sogar das Feeling älterer Er Rag n bone Man,aber nicht so poppig wie Momentan nothing more.Denn sleep Token sind düsterer und progressiver als ......

Llegó en perfecto estado, el álbum pues no tengo nada que decir una obra musical 10/10

In my other two reviews, I covered the ethos and technique of Sleep Token's Sundowning-This Place Will Become Your Tomb-Take Me Back to Eden trilogy; which perhaps follows Dante's Divine Comedy Hell-Purgatory-Heaven tripartite pattern, except thematically placing heaven/sky in the first and hell/earth in the last. In this one, I am discussing the purpose of the lyrical and musical drive. Sundowning runs with the ecstatic innocence of first love, expansive as the hills, arms reaching out, soaring. The listeners are taken into a night in which we forget all that we knew by day, retreating from explicit memory into an underlying, vulnerable tenderness that is the same as life to us. Failure in offering ourselves to whom we love means something worse than death. Somewhere, eternal love exists, but we are stuck in time, inexperienced, and suffering without understanding why. By the time we reach the complex Take Me Back to Eden, we know that finding long-lasting temporal love might not be a possibility, and that our greatest setback might be our fear of accepting ourselves as we are, with insomnia of the soul. These musical prayers and day-to-day sacrifices that we thought we could use as a "sleep token" pass to get through the gates blocking our goal of overcoming suffering -- whether through finding perfect love, death, or sleep -- might actually not work. Celebrating them as intrinsically worthwhile might be the mature decision. The love always present in our own hearts might be the greatest heaven, and we wish that we could have seen that when we were in our first relationship. Now that we see that our love is powerful regardless of whether the specific relationship lasts, we are more able to provide an unconditional love to ourselves and others while fully grounding ourselves in the world around us. This Place Will Become Your Tomb bridges the gap between these two. As is even more obvious in concerts than in the album, Vessel amps the angst in the instrumentation, large sonic waves heaving like the ocean itself. As the album art indicates, the place that will be our tomb is water -- the formlessness from which all things emerge and will return. Unlike other artists' albums that focus on messy break-ups, this one consistently uplifts, like the movement of a Fibonacci sequence. A jubilant struggle to keep the relationship alive, the magnitude of the effort, the height and depth and width of the love, the physics and the medicine -- there is triumph. The death to self in which you are participating, regardless of whether you can tell it's healthy, is a solemn ritual of the universe in which you yourself, a microcosm, is participating. And that is reassuring.
