As they prepare for the release of their most groundbreaking album to date ("Rheia", out September 30th on Deathwish Inc.), progressive heavy music outfit Oathbreaker have premiered their haunting and powerful music video for album opener “10:56 / Second Son of R.” today. These songs and this record feature the most honest, fragile and self-reflective lyrics that Oathbreaker have written thus far in their 8+ year long career.
The band, which formed in 2008 in Ghent, Belgium, released their debut full-length "Maelstrom" in 2011 on Deathwish, which was followed by the critically-acclaimed "Eros Anteros" full-length in 2013 (also on Deathwish). On "Rheia", which was engineered, mixed, and mastered by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Loma Prieta), Oathbreaker have truly hit their stride and carve a new path for their blackened/post-metal sound. Rheia is a deeply personal album that showcases the artistic strength that vulnerability brings.
See Oathbreaker on tour in North America from September 28th through October 30th with Skeletonwitch and Iron Reagan. More news coming soon.
