Summary
His mind wandered more than his own bare feet. He wracked his brain for any kind of memory, any detail to grasp upon, but his labor bore no fruit. There were remnants of something, but nothing stuck out enough to know what it was anymore. At the best of his luck, he could somewhat remember the presence of others, people that once made him feel warm. He might have been loved, once. It had to be true. As for who they were, or even what they looked like, nothing came up. All he had was the knowledge that he had something, and now there was nothing. He was alone.
He groaned with frustration, quelling the feeling of grief over something he could barely conceptualize having. How could he start figuring out where he was if he couldn’t even remember where he’d been?
He paused to take a breath and look up, seeing that the sky was finally clear.
That’s when he saw the moon.
It was mostly intact. Mostly. The bottom of it was cracked open, the inside barely exposed by the angle at which it rested. The glow of the distant sun illuminated it, revealing the deep, blood-red color within.
Evidently, something had been there. Whatever it was, it got out.

Summary
“Et in Arcadia Ego. Even in Arcadia, there am I.”
In 2018, Samuel Rodrigues was reported dead, and Jack “Raiden” Sears was officially a criminal. Not many people have heard from Raiden since, his attempts to keep a low profile have been successful… but not just from his own efforts.
Sam wakes up in a quiet, unfamiliar city, with no one but a familiar foe for company. Finding themselves unable to leave the city, they're forced to be civil with one another as they figure out where everyone has gone, while wrestling with the fallout of what should have been Sam’s fitting death and Raiden's decisions.

Summary
Sleep Token's third album marked a real shift for the band, one that would lead to them gaining more attention and fame than anyone could have ever imagined, both for better, and for worse. This is my full dissection of Sleep Token's 2023 album "Take Me Back to Eden," and why I found myself unable to really enjoy it.
