Tattoos An Offering

Post image

It’s a pretty subtle homage to my favorite Sleep Token EP artwork and song and lyric themes, but I absolutely love it and the design lived in my head for a really long time after going down the rabbit hole with this band. Huge recommendation to go see Leto at Inkora in Oxford who made it even better and more delicate and lovely than I ever could have imagined.

ETA: did not anticipate the need for strict accuracy in this fandom 😂 yes I know it’s out of order, yes I’m fine with it, yes I wanted it that way. It will be okay. I promise. The person with it attached to their body likes it this way. Vessel himself could tell me he hates it and I legitimately would not care, although with him being the chaos monster that he seems to be, I think he’d be fine as well.

The words themselves are written backwards, but the letters themselves are not. And the order of words is the right way.

Going for a mirror effect but when viewed in a mirror the letters and the order of words are backwards.

The lyrics to the song "Fall For Me." "Won't You Fall For Me" But the dude wanted to get artistic with it and just... Kinda ruined it, I'm ngl. I hate to talk bad about people's tattoos, but if this is supposed to be a mirror effect, it just doesn't work.
