most brutal review i've seen in pitchfork for a while, probably since Ed Sheeran:

Sleep Token: Even in Arcadia

Read Eli Enis’ review of the album.

That reviewer appears to have discovered the term djent in the last five minutes and absolutely loves it. They've even fallen for the 'djent is a genre nonsense' that the media seems to love.

To be fair though, every thing else they've said, except the anonymous bit (does anyone still not know who they are?) I kind of agree with.

I'd never listened to anything by them because one look at them would indicate it'd be something I'd turn off after a minute, but as that review indicates, that isn't really the case. Caramel is great, I absolutely LOVE Damocles but wow listening to a whole album of this was one hell of a drag. Utterly, utterly boring. Absolutely don't see the fuss and the popularity if this is what Sleep Token is.

They've definitely got better stuff on their earlier albums. Chokehold, The Summoning and Alkaline are decent but I've always been baffled that certain people seem to really turned on by them.

And I mean that in every sense.

I think this is their most "accessible" album to date (and album of the year contender), which is great for me at least, a little pop leaning and gets loud at times, even if a tad formulaic for some because most of the songs start soft before introducing heavier sections.

Regardless of what I think, congrats in order for them! cheer
