黑暗的主持人贾斯汀·霍金斯（Justin Hawkins）最近在他的YouTube频道贾斯汀·霍金斯（Justin Hawkins）再次骑车上的一段视频中分享了他对睡眠代币的新歌“焦糖”的想法。

The British band released the single on 14th July, serving as the third single from their fourth album ‘An Evening With... Sleep Token: The Pendulum.’

英国乐队于7月14日发行了这首单曲，是他们的第四张专辑“ An Anight with ... Sleep notken：The Pendulum”中的第三张单曲。

The song marks a slight step into pop-influenced territories for the band, known for their heavy sound.

这首歌标志着以其沉重的声音而闻名的乐队迈出的一步。

However, ‘Caramel’ still maintains Sleep Token’s signature sonic identity, blending it seamlessly with unexpected elements like reggaeton rhythms, as noted by MetalSucks.

但是，“焦糖”仍然保持睡眠代币的标志性声音身份，将其与Metalsucks所指出的如Reggaeton Rhythms等意外元素无缝融合。

The publication highlights the unique juxtaposition of these genres, rendering it even more surprising given the band’s penchant for anonymity.

该出版物强调了这些流派的独特并置，鉴于乐队对匿名性的偏爱，它更加令人惊讶。

This strategy, while unconventional in today’s fame-driven music culture, is a conscious choice that Sleep Token employ to craft their art, according to Hawkins.

霍金斯说，这种策略虽然在当今名声驱动的音乐文化中是非常规的，但是一个有意识的选择，可以睡觉代币来制作艺术。

“I feel like in today’s culture it’s almost more important who’s singing it than the song itself, so to completely deny your fan base any sort of insight as to who you are or where you grew up is really bold and unusual,” Hawkins said.

霍金斯说：“我觉得在今天的文化中，谁在唱歌比这首歌本身更重要，因此，完全否认您的粉丝对自己是谁或成长的任何形式的见解确实是大胆而不寻常的。”

“I mean aside from the fact that it’s obviously D-tuned heavily, and I didn’t really feel obliged to make any sort of musical observations on this. It’s just Sleep Token doing a really beautiful sort of evolving long-form piece of brilliance, which does transition in from something that sounds a bit like soul into really, really, really heavy metal.”

“我的意思是，除了显然是在​​大量统治的事实之外，我并没有真正有义务对此进行任何音乐观察。这只是睡眠代币做出了一种非常美丽的长期光彩，这确实从听起来有点像灵魂变成了真正的，真正的重金属的东西。”

“And it does it in quite a subtle way until that moment when it really needs to smack you around the face. It does do that. It’s a great production. I really enjoyed it.”

“而且直到那一刻真的需要在脸上打你的那一刻，它就可以做到这一点。它确实做到了。这是一个很棒的作品。我真的很喜欢它。”

“But I think the most important thing that’s discussion-worthy from my point of view would be like the message of the lyrics. I mean, that’s the thing that’s captured everybody’s imagination, I think, on this.”

“但是我认为，从我的角度来看，最重要的事情是一个值得讨论的事情。我的意思是，这就是吸引每个人的想象力的事情，我认为这是这样的。”

“It’s a really lovely and nuanced piece of expressive creative writing.”

“这是一篇非常可爱而细微的富有创造力的写作。”

“It’s kind of like a talking about his experience. I mean, presumably, it’s autobiographical, but it is sort of trying to appeal to the perspective of somebody who wishes to remain anonymous but also wants to try and appeal to as many people as possible with this kind of expansive and ambitious rock landscape.”

“这有点像谈论他的经历。我的意思是，大概是自传，但这是一种试图吸引一个希望保持匿名但也想尝试以这种广阔和雄心勃勃的摇滚景观的人的观点的观点。”

“It’s really impressive and hard to categorize, as always.”

“一如既往，这确实令人印象深刻，很难分类。”

Hawkins’ commentary arrives at a significant moment in Sleep Token’s career as they continue to push musical boundaries with their latest release.

霍金斯（Hawkins）的评论在睡眠代币的职业生涯中到达了一个重要的时刻，因为他们继续以最新发行的方式突破音乐界限。

The song appears on Sleep Token’s fourth album, ‘Even In Arcadia.’ Stay Free Radio highlighted the song’s exploration of fame’s emotional toll and the gradual erosion of personal identity in the public eye.

这首歌出现在Sleep Smotken的第四张专辑《即使在Arcadia》中。保持免费广播强调了这首歌对名望的情感损失以及对公众眼中个人身份的逐渐侵蚀的探索。

Primordial Radio also examined the track’s lyrical depth. Their analysis found that the ‘caramel’ metaphor represents the sticky, inescapable nature of relationships under fame’s spotlight.

原始广播还研究了曲目的抒情深度。他们的分析发现，“焦糖”的隐喻代表了名声下聚光灯下关系的粘性，不可避免的性质。

The release strengthens Sleep Token’s reputation for crafting complex musical narratives. Their work continues to challenge genre boundaries while maintaining their mysterious persona, a strategy that defines their artistic identity.

该版本在制作复杂的音乐叙事方面增强了代币的声誉。他们的工作继续挑战流派界限，同时保持神秘的角色，这一策略定义了他们的艺术身份。
