睡眠代币记录并不是看上去的

乍一看，似乎睡眠代币从恩典中掉下来。诸如“焦糖”和“ Damocles”之类的单曲使唱片变得不可能

A first glance at the Sleep Token record had some thinking that the band had fallen from grace. Singles "Caramel" and "Damocles" made the record out to be something it kind of wasn't, it was deceptive, almost. But, to some, it definitely will be the record they hop off the Sleep Token train at.

乍一看睡眠令牌记录有些认为乐队从格蕾丝（Grace）掉下来。单打“焦糖”和“ Damocles”使唱片变得不是它，几乎是欺骗性的。但是，对于某些人来说，这绝对是他们跳下睡眠代币火车的记录。

Going a further exploration of what is a pretty progressive sound, Sleep Token bottled up metal into an even more digestible form, and has the potential to serve it to masses. Definitely straying to the more pop side of things, incorporating elements of jazz, hip-hop, trap, blues, even country into the mix, it's surprisingly palatable. Of course, there are still the chugging riffs and black metal vocals that we know and love.

进一步探索什么是一种相当渐进的声音，瓶装金属将金属瓶装成更易于消化的形式，并有可能将其提供给群众。绝对融入了爵士乐，嘻哈，陷阱，布鲁斯甚至乡村的元素的元素，绝对陷入了更多的流行方面，令人惊讶的是可口。当然，仍然有我们所知道和喜欢的喧闹的即兴演奏和黑色金属人声。

But, in terms of the band's metal influences, the introduction track, "Look To Windward" redeemed the two lackluster singles pretty quickly. Cinematic beyond belief, Sleep Token is backed by orchestration and melodies emerging from within chugging riffs – the first song alone is almost 8 minutes long.

但是，就乐队的金属影响而言，介绍曲目“ Look to Windward”很快就赎回了这两个平淡的单曲。电影《超越信仰》，睡眠代币的支持者是编排和旋律的支持，而旋律则是在挑剔的即兴演奏中出现的 - 仅第一首歌就快了8分钟。

And I'm not the only one having either an epiphany, or orgasm, to Sleep Token in the past week. Sleep Token achieved their first ever #1 album in the UK for Even in Arcadia, and is expected to debut at #1 in the US with over 120,000 units. The band also achieved their first ever ARIA #1 album in Australia with this record, and also went #1 in Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, New Zealand, and Scotland.

而且，我并不是唯一一个在过去一周内有顿悟或性高潮的人。 Sleep Sodken即使在Arcadia也获得了英国有史以来的第一张专辑，预计将以超过120,000个单位在美国首次亮相。乐队还通过这张唱片在澳大利亚获得了有史以来的第一张ARIA＃1专辑，并在奥地利，比利时，荷兰，德国，新西兰和苏格兰排名第一。

Now, personally, I wasn't the biggest fan of the record. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't anything groundbreaking. I feel like we've heard it all before, and I feel like the colour black was used a bit too much. But, I wasn't expecting to like it, and I did. So, no complaints here.

现在，就我个人而言，我不是唱片中最大的粉丝。我喜欢它，但这并不是什么开创性的。我觉得我们之前已经听过所有的声音，而且我觉得黑色使用的颜色太多了。但是，我没想到会喜欢它，我做到了。因此，这里没有投诉。

Regardless of opinions, this is a massive feat for any metal band. Whether it's desensitizing the public to the colour black and a couple of chugging riffs or simply resonating with more people as our peripherals crumble to bits, we won't question it. #1 is #1.

无论有何看法，对于任何金属乐队来说，这都是一项巨大的壮举。无论是使公众不敏感到黑色的颜色和几个嘶哑的即兴演奏，还是只是与更多的人共鸣，因为我们的外围者崩溃了，我们都不会质疑它。 ＃1是＃1。

Congratulations, Sleep Token.

恭喜，睡眠代币。
