Vessel never gives interviews – apart from that one time he did. In 2017, Metal Hammer sat down with Sleep Token’s masked, anonymous frontman for what would become the only conversation he ever had with music press. He spoke to us about the band’s facelessness, influences and the mysterious deity known as “Sleep” – but, to be honest, we emerged from the chat with just as many questions as we had going into it.
The issue of Hammer that Vessel was interviewed for was our blockbuster 90s Issue. The likes of Limp Bizkit, Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, Sepultura and a short-haired James Hetfield were on the cover. So, as well as trying to unravel the mystery of Sleep Token, we asked their nameless frontman what his favourite 90s album is.
