Sleep Token has released its new album, Even in Arcadia. The record is available today, May 9.

The mysterious English band, whose members remain officially anonymous behind stylish masks and outfits nearly a decade into its existence, has grown in stature in recent years thanks to its compelling mix of theatric song structures that blend crushing metal riffs and mosh-pit-ready breakdowns into swelling, orchestral arrangements and explorations into pop and even R&B, the group’s leader and vocalist “Vessel” leading the charge, his lyrics exploring self-exploration, shattered identities and searching for reality in a fractured world.

Previously debuted tracks include “Caramel.” A seamless blend of the dark and light elements of Sleep Token’s musical style, this one is as much down the line of the band’s pop leanings as it is an exploration of the heaviest metal tendencies that also poke through nearly every song.
