cannot get over how ominous the end of mine is— “did you not say we were made for each other?” it’s uttered with a measured and sorrowful fury, like someone stalking nearer towards you in anger, with the way it questions the listener who temporarily stands as the singer’s surrogate lover.
it is the spiritual precursor to nazareth for me. it lays the foundation to showcasing a love that has snapped under its own unreciprocated weight. one that harshly questions its affective object about their commitment to the love the two supposedly share, and the pair’s fate.
everyone has felt this seething betrayal and venomous indictment against their loved ones. everyone, too, has desired to question their lover in moments of anger and heartbreak. mine and nazareth play into each other as a pair with the former portraying the controlled inhale as it reiterates what was once promised, and the latter portraying the sharp exhale as it shatters any notions that what once was can ever be regained.
because didn’t you say so? “did you not say that we were made for each other?” but it’s fine. this heartbreak is fine. i’ll see you again. “i’ll see you when the wrath comes.”
i have to admit that i often skip ep’s from bands, i prefer diving into the meat of their work and often production/skill is significantly better on the albums.
however! i have spent my morning listening to sleep token and after hearing nazareth and calcutta again i fear i have been depriving myself of some fantastic music. i like one and two, i just never gravitate towards them. that might have to change though, i forgot how good these songs were
Nahh cuz "they won't be missing you" panning from the left ear to the right and then back again??? Mister token the first, you are actually so sick for that 😭😭
If songs from pre-Sundowning are still on the set lists, pretty please can we rotate which ones. I love Nazareth but I’d also love to see the others get brought back out
Hi hello yes I also thought I was done but my brain said no.

So, who was going to tell me what an absolute menace Vessel was on stage back in 2018? Why did nobody show me what a chaotic goblinman he used to be?
Vessel, you cannot do this to me.
The white waistband.
The water bottle drop.
The strangulation of OG IV.
The SPIT.
ONTO.
OG IV.
…
Sir. What is happening to you on stage? What demons are you fighting? (Let me help, I want to meet them)
