DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Metal/Rock LP Pressed on Ltd Edition Gold Vinyl - Sleep Token returns with 'Even In Arcadia', their fourth offering and first under RCA Records. This new chapter follows 'Take Me Back To Eden' and continues the unfolding journey, where Sleep Token further intertwines the boundaries of sound and emotion, dissolving into something otherworldly.
Serving as follow up to 2023's acclaimed breakout third full-length Take Me Back To Eden, London's elusive, masked progressive metal mystics Sleep Token return with Even In Arcadia. Renowned for their genre-fluid melding of djent, metalcore, post-rock with further leftfield elements of post-classical, hip-hop, trap and indie-pop, the project led by the enigmatic Vessel has seen a massive expansion in popularity since the release of their last album. Set to headline Download 2025 before embarking on their first US Arena Tour, their newest endeavour promises to maximise all of their sonic abandon and outdo their own blueprint in the process, with lead single 'Emergence' starting life as a piano ballad before morphing into an ambi-trap groove metal anthem until fading with a lush, jazzy saxophone and piano finish. No doubt, this will be one of the highest selling/streaming/controversial/debated/talked about metal-centric titles to be released this year.

Last FM Information on Sleep Token
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Sleep Token is a British progressive rock / alternative metal / post-metal band from London, England, formed in 2016. The anonymous, masked collective is led by a frontman known only as Vessel, who frames the project as a form of worship devoted to the entity “Sleep”. Their work merges ritualistic imagery with wide-ranging musical influences, uniting heaviness, ambience, and emotional vulnerability under a singular aesthetic.
Sleep Token debuted in 2016 with the self-released EP One, followed the next year by Two on Basick Records. After signing with Spinefarm Records, they issued their first full-length album, Sundowning (2019), a slow-unfolding collection that introduced their fusion of progressive metal, electronic textures, and alt-pop sensibility. Their 2021 follow-up, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, deepened the emotional scope of their sound, balancing dense production with moments of intimacy and restraint.
The 2023 release Take Me Back to Eden expanded their global audience, blending cinematic arrangements and contemporary R&B elements with djent-inflected heaviness. Their most recent album, Even in Arcadia (2025, RCA Records), continues to blur genre boundaries, emphasizing melody, grandeur, and atmosphere over traditional metal tropes.
The band’s live performances — referred to as “rituals” — are known for their theatrical precision and immersive quality, marked by masked anonymity, dimly lit stages, and communal energy. While often categorized as metal or metalcore, Sleep Token’s sound exists in a fluid space between heaviness and fragility, exploring themes of devotion, loss, transcendence, and identity.
