Sleep Token has rolled out four singles in the past month – "Chokehold," "The Summoning," "Granite," and "Aqua Regia." Three of those songs are hovering between 450,000 and 700,000 views on YouTube, though "The Summoning" is currently clocking in at 1.7 million.
Then there's the fact that "The Summoning" peaked on Spotify's Viral 50 – Global playlist at No. 2, and has been sitting at No. 6 for a little while now. Keep in mind that the Viral 50 – Global playlist is all music across the entire world – Sleep Token has been hanging out in the Top 10 across every genre. That's nuts.
"The Summoning" clocks in at 7.8 million streams of right now on Sleep Token's Spotify profile, only being beaten by "Alkaline" with 9.5 million streams. Except "Alkaline" came out in 2021 and "The Summoning" was released three weeks ago. So long story short, maybe expect Sleep Token to become one of the bigger bands in metal this year – they've certainly got the momentum right now.
Sleep Token is rumored to be releasing a new album called Take Me Back To Eden this year, though no information is available on it just yet.
