"Sleepwalking" was the second taste of Sempiternal, Bring Me the Horizon's fourth studio album, arriving as a download in March 2013, a day after BBC Radio 1 had anointed it the station's "Hottest Record". Oliver Sykes, guitarist Lee Malia and keyboardist Jordan Fish are among its writers, and it finds the band easing off the throttle: noticeably mellower than the singles before it, with a bridge that Loudwire's Spencer Kaufman singled out as beautiful.
Terry Date produced and recorded it and David Bendeth mixed it, with Malia on guitar, Matt Kean on bass, Matt Nicholls on drums and Claes and Per Strängberg adding guest vocals. It climbed to No. 3 on the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart, got a 10-inch picture disc for Record Store Day that April, and made the cut for both of the band's live video albums, Live at Wembley and Live at the Royal Albert Hall.
