12 essential Sleep Token songs you need to know
From early 2017 highlight Nazareth to viral singles Chokehold and The Summoning from Take Me Back To Eden, here’s your ultimate round-up of Sleep Token’s most significant songs…
Classic rock tracks. Tiny drums atop a toilet lid. You're welcome.
Have you ever been at a metal show, watching a drummer wail away during a killer fill, and thought, 'Man, this guy's good, but he'd be so much better if he were somehow playing on the lid of a toilet?' Well, now you can live out that weird fantasy, because one YouTuber has uploaded a series of videos featuring him performing classic rock covers on itty-bitty drums perched atop his toilet.
The drummer, whose channel is called, of all things, Miniature Drums, performs a number of rock songs on teeny skins, using what look like Q-tips or pieces of spaghetti as drumsticks. The channel is described as the "only channel where giant drummers are welcomed", so maybe the entire undertaking goes down in a giant's toilet, and this is actually a full-sized kit. I don't know, I'm not a doctor.
Watch a teeny-weeny cover of Green Day's Holiday below:
Here's a diminutive version of System Of A Down's Toxicity:
And here's the littlest cover of Guns N' Roses' Sweet Child Of Mine you've ever witnessed:
Pretty adorable. If only all bands could play tiny music on top of a toilet.
