OCEANS OF SLUMBER (Cammie Gilbert) Interview | BangerTV

[@TroyKnapp]

Straight from the source, our questions are FINALLY answered! They're a "Gothic death doom metal band." Whatever it is, it's a great and unique sound. Please keep it up!

[@USSRPhoto]

One of the most unique and talented singers I've had the pleasure to listen to. She sounds very distinctive, can't mistake her for anyone else, absolutely mesmerizing voice!

[@nickpelayo3172]

Hell yeah. It is awesome to see Oceans of Slumber grow and get bigger. Houston loves you guys and can't wait to see what you do next

[@BiancaTallarico]

Cammie has such a cute attitude and she's so professional in explaining the music.

[@BangerTV]

Total pro!

[@ChrisPage68]

@@BangerTV Really looking forward to the new Ayreon album. The track I heard with her and Tommy Karevik makes me even more excited to hear the rest of TRANSITUS. Eff the haters where the sun doesn't shine. The first time I heard A Return To The Earth Below, I almost bawled my eyes out - what a voice!

[@thaichillidippingsauce593]

Yay a person who looks like me and is talented. Edit: I mean she’s black and a female in metal/rock genres.

[@SunCityGamer]

Let's see 🙏

[@doctajuice]

We need more people of color and women in rock and metal. The historical lack of diversity in metal is the number one thing slowing down its progression. I'm so excited to see where it goes in the future

[@Metalbass10000]

Don't ever listen to the doubters, the people tearing you down, talking shit. Ever. 🤘🏿😆👍🏼 🤜🏾🤛🏼

[@springbloom5940]

Houston metal, bruh. This is nothing unusual to us.

[@philthyF80]

TEXAS metal is so underrated!!! T.X.D.M. For life!!! So much talent!!! In this band and the Houston metal scene period!!

[@BangerTV]

Some of the best music, 100% agreed!

[@BRO77TX]

God Bless ZZ Top, Pantera, Kings X, Power Trip, Galactic Cowboys, Bloodrock, Point Blank, and so many more!! RIP Riley Gale (I just found about his death (10/30/20) after reading it in the comment above!! I was so looking fwd to see how far this band would go!! Ugh... 😔

[@santiagobracho5964]

Their last album is fucking epic!!! Imagine Pallbearer with a some more death metal parts and a much more dynamic singer. Amazing band

[@BangerTV]

Great way to sum it up!

[@rocioiribe5841]

You're saying all the right things!

[@warthogA10]

I was just mentioning Cammie to Rick Beato on his channel. I love everything about her, which I guess makes me a creepy 52yo man... Her voice is just SO beautiful, as is everything else about her. Rick just did a video on Tori Amos who I also love. I listen a lot to Cammie, Mary Fahl, Tori Amos, and a few others... Their vocals are so powerful, controlled, angelic... I find them so calming and emotionally stirring

[@SeekTheTruth205]

Awesome band, the first song I heard was the type o negative cover of "Wolf Moon" and I was blown away!!!

[@D-A-K]

Thank you for the interview! I've been writing this band off as another shit prog band I know I won't like, but after this I checked them and out and OH MY GOD. It's so good and her voice is truly something special.

[@BangerTV]

Check out our album review as well!

[@russ6366]

Killer band that is making their own sound!! She seems really cool & very down to earth.

[@miffmaff1]

I got to talk to her for a bit after their show in Vienna a couple years back. She was super nice :)

[@BangerTV]

Really great person to interview as well.

[@amoe1234]

The whole band signed the winter LP at the viper room for me. They were so nice! (and the show was amazing)

[@Holy_Frakula]

Hell yes Banger for interviewing such a badass singer from such a badass band. Cant wait for the new album. Everything theyve been putting out song / video etc has been sooo good.

[@BangerTV]

Hope you dug the album review as well!

[@bhaskarborah1174]

Danny in a Power Trip tshirt. This year just keeps on getting worse. RIP Riley.

[@BangerTV]

Riley Gale Forever

[@Metalbass10000]

I like the reviewers sometimes stepping out of their comfort zone. Not always, but to broaden their perspective, and to offer opinions based on different perspectives, is very cool, and needed for all.

[@BangerTV]

100%

[@countscottula8772]

The new record comes out the day before my bday, I’m so stoked!!! 🤘😃🤘

[@froshambo]

Great interview, I can't wait for the 4th. I would love to see Oceans up here in Edmonton some day.

[@sideshowbobrobert]

mad respect for any black artist who ventures into territory which may not reflect on the stereotypically xpected parameters for them. metal is all inclusive, but i would love to learn how much push back this amazing woman has had to face for daring to go where too few have ventured to go. how much more bad-ass would texas metal be without air conditioners ? hhhmmmm...

[@alyssajones4368]

Solid interview dude, highly professional. She is awesome asf. Another badass chick is Alexis Brown from Straight Lines Stitch.

[@isaacjamesbaker]

Such a great discussion, well done!

[@BangerTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@666Husky]

Some of my photography in there - thank you! :)

[@BangerTV]

AWESOME! Cheers!

[@juanborjas6416]

I really appreciate these interviews. You should do them more often.

[@BangerTV]

Thanks Juan!

[@wannabejedi6090]

I love this band so much. TY

[@cotomaznaczyc]

Great interview. Very insightful. Also, Oceans of Slumber is the most unique sounding band I've heard in a while. I've never liked soul music, yet I am loving these soul vocals.

[@rocioiribe5841]

the analogy of a bird with clipped wings actually got me in the feels. that's how shit feels right now. treading but going nowhere. :(

[@BangerTV]

Cammie is full of amazing analogies and insight, was a pleasure chatting with her

[@ChrisPage68]

@@BangerTV The good thing is the new spirit of fan engagement from my favourite bands - Nightwish, Unleash The Archers, Lovebites, Ignea etc. In lieu of touring, they're finding new ways to connect with us.

[@nicholasbryant8268]

Cammie and her band are the whole reason I got into doom metal in the first place. Problem is I'm trying to find what other doom metal i should listen to her with.

[@philthyF80]

They're awesome so much talent in that band! Dobber Beverly on drums. T.X.D.M. legend!!!

[@timurhant469]

Thank you for this. Super relaxed, nice interview!

[@elamanvetta1685]

"Soul Metal." It's a great fusion for me.

Happy we could help!

[@iilias1]

Along with avatarium the best female vocalist nowadays

[@wtfisgoingonhere1076]

God I love this amazing woman! 🤘🏻💕

[@danydedoll]

Of course talking about OoS had to be the main focus. But considering she is one of the 2 main characters in Ayreon's Transitus that was recently released, at least one question about her insight on that project and her participation would have been fantastic. Nevertheless a very nice interview!

[@brunosipavicius7867]

I'd like to know why there's no more English subtitles here? Instead of it there's Korean. For me would be better Portuguese, because I'm Brazilian, but my listening understanding approves when I read the subtitles with.

[@doctajuice]

For the genre thing, I describe them as progressive Gothic doom. It's a strange combo but I think it fits OK.

[@Metalbass10000]

Great interview, she's cool. But, hot weather? Cold weather, like Finland, Norway, Sweden, even the northern latitudes of the US, and Canada, have produced a shitload of heavy, intense, brutal, and extremely creative music, too. I think great metal can come from anywhere.

[@heavymetalmurse]

Dylan must've been jealous. You guys better let him do the review, haha!

Dylan has no idea what's going on. he's stuck in his basement haha
