The enigmatic collective Sleep Token have announced the release of their highly anticipated fourth studio album, Even In Arcadia, set to drop on May 9 via RCA Records. This marks the band’s first release under their new label and serves as the follow-up to 2023’s critically acclaimed Take Me Back To Eden.
The announcement comes alongside the unveiling of their latest single, “Emergence,” now available to stream. “Emergence” showcases Sleep Token’s signature blend of genre melding soundscapes as delicate pianos, beautiful melodies, pulsating synths, electronic beats, heavy guitars and pounding drums collide into an epic 6 minutes of pure Sleep Token artistry – there’s even a tasty sax solo to round things off. Accompanying the release, frontman Vessel has debuted a new look, draped in green and gold robes—colours reminiscent of the cryptic house symbols the band has teased in recent months.

As Sleep Token embarks on this new chapter, they shared a statement on Even In Arcadia: “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.”
