Oathbreaker on Audiotree Live (Full Session)

[@Au1878-q4y]

I've come to terms that this band will never release another record and I'm at peace because this masterpiece could never be paralleled.

[@mycoldlandscape3660]

I still hope they will be back

[@moodifi]

@@mycoldlandscape3660 Wait, they split up?

[@sclaperz]

I know Levi left Amenra and two members of Oathbreaker are also in Wiegedood who just released a new record that took them about two years to make. now that that's done here's to hoping I suppose!

[@spikedylacid]

They were scheduled to play Arctangent festival in the UK in 2021, it was going to be their first show together as a band in years. Unfortunately Covid delayed the festival and when it was moved to 2022 they were removed from the lineup without any reasoning. So there’s still hope that they have at least been in talks about doing shows and getting back together and if it wasn’t for covid we may have had Oathbreaker back.

[@ulver1187]

Same, this is it, this was Oathbreaker

[@peterzulim3914]

this band didn't get the credit they deserve. Possibly the most underrated band in all of metal

[@Snot390]

Especially on this album, it still sits completely on its own to me. A fantastic mix of style and sound.

[@Ruinlol]

3:15 Drummer looks like hes playing the happiest blast beats. He's the Bob Ross of drumming.

-How you guys got her as a vocalist? -Yeah... a Banshee showed up at my uncle's window to announce his imminent death and we asked her if she wanted to sing in a black metal band and she said yes.

[@persistentgloom]

She really sounds haunting, when she sings clean.

[@hoodieinfestation]

Funny enough I saw them in Detroit when they were here and had to sketch a banshee when I got home.

Rheia is a true piece of art, everything is so emotional, the vocals, the instrumental performance, the production... definitely one of the greatest albums of 2016, maybe the best, one month left.

[@samlomax7033]

ExaggeratedDread for me it's on par with Jane doe as a heavy music masterpiece, simply exceptional

When you drum for Wiegedood and for Oathbreaker you are a real musician

[@apxutekctypa]

Emotional af. Can't remember anything barely close to this level of emotions that Caro delivers through her scream, so loud and desperate. This, 8:00, is so soul-crushing, I uttered a tear. Female Rinoa goes black, I'd call it. Thanks, Audiotree.

[@1WEareBUFO1]

Once you go black metal...

[@evanbaker8903]

So stoked to see some heavier bands on here. Audiotree is the coolest.

[@Tsotha]

Audiotree seem to have more metal and punk groups in their studio than KEXP do... there are some bands that have played both most notably Thou

I'm in love with Caro, it's official.

[@SomethingBizzare60]

im so high and i just started watching this randomly having never heard them before and im on the verge of shedding tears this is amazing

[@blackiefunnykillers]

That’s exactly what it happened to me when I first listen to them. Holy shit we need more stuff from this guys for sure!

[@1WEareBUFO1]

I threw up the first time i heard Being Able to Feel Nothing. Shit felt too real. But now all it does is wring out all the tears left in my body. In a ¿good? Way

[@chicapercebe]

i discovered this session 7 months ago, since that i never stopped listening to them and i always come back to this video

[@kjaamor2057]

That drummer has the facial expression of a man who fucking loves it when the cartilage in his knees wears away.

[@martinparidon9056]

The bassist is like a guy having a chill barbecue when all around him there's like the biggest thunderstorm ever. Whatever, I'm still having my fucking burger.

[@Lijoje]

This is the most amazing I have ever seen and heard.... I'm loving this band like nobody's business! The moment she startet singing I was amazed, but as soon as the switch happened I was mesmerised.

Rheia is one of the best albums of all time.

[@sebastianviuf]

That interlude in the first seconds and between the songs gives me so much satisfaction. Am i the only one who feel this way about it?

[@grannywalter]

Perfect balance of technique and raw emotion in the screams. She's not likely to ever blow her voice.

[@loubest3935]

New drummer is crazy good

[@DrewMcDaniel]

I've been waiting for this for so long. Couldn't be happier with the result

[@Nikonowincolour]

The transition into the scream at 6:25 is amazing.

[@Zatreyu91]

Somehow I ended up here after watching random ASMR videos, Madchild music videos, and a Hopsin video and I have to say I LOVE THIS. I'm a huge fan of Deafheaven and metal in general and this is such a beautiful mix of clean, haunting vocals and that black/doom metal-esque sound. Very awe-inspiring.

[@chriswarnecke1145]

One of the best Black Gaze bands. I hate the term, but it fits. Rheia is better than anything Deafheaven has done outside if Simunbather. And even that is debateable. Their early stuff is more hardcore than Metal. Also, Brutus is monstrous, too.

[@1WEareBUFO1]

Like the term black gaze better than "death metal" and all the bands with no meaning trying to be as edgy as possible to find a niche.

[@VIOLENCEAirsoft]

25:00 THIS. JUST... DAMN.

Do you know what this song is called?

Whoa, thanks for that comment, because I might have not watched the whole thing. Nothing has hit me that hard since I had heard Rinoa for the first time. Similar vibes. If you haven't heard them, check out Rinoa - Fires in the Distant North, you'll love it. I'll need to give Oathbreaker a good listen, amazing band.

[@jbasti227]

Second son of R lyrics 2:53 Raised in between doll-shaped smoke Insects in every corner of our rotten house I hid in the walls of my room Tasting clean air through a window crack In these childhood dreams where imagination was key I drove the needle through my skin Weaving a delicate net to embrace me And hold me to sleep where no one could see Where no one could hear me breathe Your empty house won't comfort me Don't make me pity you Don't make me pity you in the end Don't make me pity you Don't make me pity you in the end I won't forget the years when disappointment was key Blood runs thick in the veins of guilt Drowning your promises made never embrace me And hold me to sleep where no one could see Where no one could hear me breathe Your shallow heart doesn't soothe me Your false love won't break me Don't make me pity you Don't me pity you in the end Don't make me pity you Don't me pity you in the end This drunken body I've left behind And the problems that are no longer mine I resided under your broken feathers For too long, scraps of pictures in a box Is what remains of those childhood dreams You'll never know the person I've become
