Could Sleep Token land a spot on the Stranger Things Season 5 soundtrack? With Jamie Campbell Bower (Vecna) recently dropping a Sleep Token cover, it’s hard not to wonder if this is more than just a cool crossover moment. Could it be a subtle hint of what’s to come?

This week, Moose & Pete dive into some fun speculation, asking whether Sleep Token could have their own Metallica: Master of Puppets moment in the upcoming season. With their atmospheric and haunting sound, the band feels like a natural fit for the dark, supernatural world of Stranger Things. Tracks like Take Me Back to Eden, Chokehold, and The Summoning seamlessly blend ethereal melodies with crushing intensity - perfect for the eerie aesthetic of the show.

The guys also chat about the legacy of Download Festival and how it has evolved over the years. From line-up strategies to the balance between marketing and artistic integrity, they explore the festival’s adaptability in an ever-changing music landscape. Plus, they discuss the growing role of digital innovations in live music and whether hologram performances are the future or just a passing gimmick.
