"Even in Arcadia" is a song by anonymous English rock band Sleep Token from their fourth studio album of the same name (2025).
Critical reception.
Rishi Shah of "NME" described the song as "straight out of the "Game of Thrones" score, carrying the hallmarks of some sort of critical judgement day for Vessel. We hear him momentarily roar for the first time, perhaps finally owning the image of the deity he's been built up to be". Reviewing "Even in Arcadia" for "Rolling Stone", Maura Johnston commented that Vessel's voice "is a sturdy burr that flutters with intensity on cuts like the windswept title track". Mackenzie Cummings-Grady of "Billboard" ranked it as the seventh best song from the album, stating "'Even in Arcadia' is spellbinding. Guided by nothing more than a piano and Vessel's voice, the song serves as both a nice break from the upbeat anthems that came before it, and a haunting call to arms for Sleep Token's longtime supporters, thanking them for taking this strange journey into the mainstream eye with them".
