[@JosedeNoche]

This is what Metal should sound more often: beautiful, breath-taking and emotional. Love this band.

[@GTXWarrior]

This group delivers such a unique sound. A breath of fresh air in the metal / atmospheric genre.

[@testrabbit]

Agree...they're sound is distinctive and I really like her voice.

[@dooderscoot2900]

I just discovered them by seeing them live, SUCH an unexpected treat, great early Xmas present!

[@oceansofslumber]

The Banished Heart This dark winding road. A long path ahead. A sound in the distance of light escaping. Through the haze a silhouette. A glimpse of reality. Only leading to nothing, where no light dwells. I feel hope leaving, I see love fading, What I wanted to be, what I couldn't become. If you could find me, would you even know me? An empty room, an empty heartbeat... I have found you in the darkness. I have found you... And...and here you are, To set a brand new path... To show me all that love means. I was lost, lost at the edge of all reason, And I...I didn’t know my way, I’d given up hope. But...but, here you are to set a brand new path. To show me all that love means. When I hold you, I need you. I said forever, and I mean forever. When I hold you, I need you. I said forever, and I mean forever. I was lost, lost at the edge of all reason. And I...I didn’t know my way. I’d given up hope. But...but here you are to show me a new way. I didn't know love until your name. But here you are to set a brand new path. To show me all that love means. When I hold you, I need you. I said forever, I mean forever. When I hold you, I need you. I said forever, I mean forever. I was waiting impatiently, But finally this moment has come. To see you, to feel you, this magic from far beyond. Can you see it? Can you feel it? Finally you are in my arms. Oh real love, Most real love, I’ve died to be yours. What was lost, Your heart has found. Most beautiful one. Can you see it? Can you feel it? Finally in my arms. Can you see it? Can you feel it? Finally you are in my arms. Oh real love, Most real love, I’ve died to be yours. Can you see it? Can you feel it? Finally in my arms. Oh real love, Most real love, I’ve died to be yours. Can you see it? Can you feel it? Finally in my arms. Oh real love, Most real love, I’ve died to be yours.

Holy shit.... the lyrics with the video are.... o.o

thanks for posting ♡♡♡

[@nevermore8148]

Far beyond beautiful!

[@lauramillerhoward135]

Phenomenal. When are you playing Houston??

[@br9nli9]

Oceans of Slumber goosebumps.. I am so impressed by your sound, lyrics, and your voices. Just beautiful.

[@danielbryanarmy]

6 years later, still a masterpiece

[@carlitosinger]

Cammie is stunning and her voice flows like a pure wind in this song (Damn, this girl can do everything with her voice). The song is not as heavy as I expected (it's the album's title), but the band demonstrates that they're not within any stereotypes and can find their own style. They always give surprises and that's not easy in this business. The piano, the choir and the drums are fantastic as well. The video is beautiful (a kind of southern gothic atmosphere). Congratulations, guys. I'm in love with this band. Greetings from Colombia!!!

[@gabrielafernandes1705]

When I first heard the song I enjoyed it a lot. But now, watching the video, I broke down in tears and got endless shivers. So emotional, so deep, so personal. Thank you for putting your soul into music and give us such beautiful art.

[@mdax2351]

Yesssssss 👌🤘

[@b_b_b5146]

I've cried a lot when I listened to the second part of the music. It's hugely beautiful. I feel so grateful that I've found this piece of art 💗

[@martymuerte]

I love this explination! I was fortunate enough to be in this video in teh second row of the chior. These are friends of mine and they practiced in the same building as us. These are amazing musicians. the feeling is unreal.

[@baronejimmyvonxentrix639]

Simply incomparable. Matchless. This incredible song makes me cry EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. TIME. They' re from another planet, Cammie, from another galaxy.

[@Nothing-zw3yd]

I'm late to the party with this band. I can't remember the last time a song made me cry.

[@YaoEspirito]

Just learned of them yesterday. Very impressed.

[@kendiamond7852]

You are not alone

[@Dnp4real]

As someone who’s had a diverse set of rock & metal bands on my playlists for most of my life, I couldn’t believe I’ve only learned about this band last May when they’ve opened for NYD and Lacuna Coil!

[@KarlDgo]

Metal is not only guturals and riffs, and these guys are doing a beautiful demonstration of what is this also should be...

[@donshamblin55]

Karl Dgo or could be 🤘

[@post-humancorp.2229]

[@tombrooks8665]

Similar to what metal often is, if you're listening to symphonic metal.

[@matheosuk6158]

My favourite kind of metal!

[@VaughanRoderick]

[@bryanardis524]

Every time I watch this, I tell myself to butch up, and not shed a tear. Been failing miserably. Just beautiful.

[@user-xr3fy8mg8j]

40 something year old metalhead and all around music lover ......I have to say that this is one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking songs that I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. Thank you for creating this work of art.

[@Charolsan]

Didn't know about this band... Man, I'm impressed. Her voice is so beautiful! I'm a fan now. ❤️

[@lupusunleashed]

Same here :)

[@DaamNProds]

ok

[@finnthehu200]

Gonna see them live soon with Insomnium. Hope they're just as good live.

[@mysterymoose9642]

I've never been more envious of someone in my entire life.

[@Liz-cmc313]

Her voice is the best I've heard in ages!!! The band is talented and all compliment each other as musicians.

[@astilachae713]

So grateful I was able to see them perform live. Amazing band. One of Houston's finest ❤

[@A.Fort.]

How on earth did I miss that one of my favorite new bands had a new album out? 'Winter' was easily my favorite album release of 2016. I've been recommending it to people nonstop for the last two years. Beyond thrilled to see more from Oceans of Slumber!

[@blizzard912ecm]

Wonderful. Cammie takes us off of the planet with her voice

[@jordanhartmann1745]

I don't get into the more classical singers in metal but I CANT STOP LISTENING TO THIS VOICE.

[@freddymetal666]

4:05 Blast beats on a slow song... This contrast that I LOVE!

[@George292Rainbow]

This song is really so deep and epic and finally can only be compared to certain masterpieces of the 70's era. So unique and deeply human, one of the most smashing tracks in the last 20 years.

[@chesapeake566]

I swear, the more I listen to this the more I think it may be the best song of all time.

[@Reutdesu]

It's been so long since I was moved so much by a song... This is pure magic. Her voice is heavenly.

[@chrissas3872]

Everything this band puts out is just fucking golden.

[@cookiemonster749]

This song succeeds in such a rare way: It feels like its playing a story through the music where there doesn't have to be vocal input. Fantastic.

[@juandiegomartinez1096]

Her vocals are so haunting yet angelical at the same time

[@dawleone6571]

OMG.. her voice is incredible 👏👏👏

[@rizhiy1]

They just got themselves a new fan. Wow! What a voice.

[@Raging_Rays]

Beyond beautiful. From the voice to the scenery. 💜💜💜

[@alexandredepaula6586]

This is my third time watching the video. Breathtaking!! The last three minutes made me cry

[@aaronbroyles9082]

God, what a haunting voice. So beautiful.

[@RedOkamiDev]

Holy shit.. I mean.. I already said this.. but this.. is just.. fking amazing. ... .like the style, the voice.. the lyric.. wtf... I fcking love metal.. and this is kind of music is one of the reasons why... Thank you.. Thank you..

[@dreamwarriorthresh]

Absolutely stunning! Incredibly powerful song with stunning dynamics - if the rest of the album is of this quality then this will be my album of the year!

[@GanjawarsLostPro]

Cammie's vocals are outworldly

[@RainDelay]

This is my new personal favorite song and video of the decade... The video bears, like someone here said, a blend of Southern and Gothic. The song itself is phenomenal, sir Dobber slays on both piano and drums, and of course Cammie is beyond talented and beautiful. The lyrics and the cinematics here work perfectly. The switch on 6:45 is out of this world, it sounds and looks like a dream... and that's where Oceans of Slumber music strives, in between reality and dreams.

[@emmanouelchristofi]

One of the greatest songs ever !!!!!!!!!!!Greetings from Cyprus

[@annajozwiak9666]

OMG !!! Her voice...this music...those words....amazing... ...I feel hope leaving I see love fading What I wanted to be What I couldn't become If you could find me, would you even know me? An empty room, an empty heartbeat................

[@benjaminbrandon8197]

I am so stoked for this album. Winter was phenomenal. This one is shaping up to be just as exquisite.

[@geminigrrl66]

This band just continues to blow me away! Melancholy metal with power. Cammie is #goals! Hurry up and come to Los Angeles!!!

[@Adardidnothingwrong]

soon.

[@Sizaani]

Saw Oceans of Slumber in Europe live, supporting Enslaved. Excellent musicians. Was nice chatting at the merch stand. Keep the spirit!

[@penelopecross1894]

This is the first time in years that a singers voice alone has brought me to tears ;-; what an angel

[@timothynewhouse8678]

real people making real music with emotional content, really great music. Plus the 63 SS impala is freakin awesome.

[@alexhaas8845]

This made me cry.. it is so beautiful.

[@Anophathalm]

How in the world could it be that I only heard yesterday the first time about this band and then just by chance. The compositions, the atmosphere and god damn this voice... this had to be one of the greatest musical findings for me in the last 5 years or so. Outstanding band, instant fan and I gotta have to buy their records. Just wow.

[@Yogananda4all]

Best band on the planet!! Pure magic.

[@auralfixxation6702]

I must add another comment. This title track effects me in a way that I haven't felt by a song in a long time. From the dirge beginning, through the Windham Hill(esque) piano passage and eventually the final mournful breath of longing, I feel.., as though I'm laying in the golden hour of light of a wind swept field. And yet I'm lost within the hues around me.

[@jamesdarwinsmithii7039]

Thank you Amazon Music for suggesting this band. Love !!!

[@SusuToTheBone]

Cammie Gilbert is, for sure, one of the greatest singers in Metal. We need more Oceans of Slumber!

[@insidespiral8]

this band need to be huge, i totally love their songs and her voice is pure magic

[@realmusic9777]

Ends too soon. I could listen to her forever

[@antoniomota23]

Saw this band live here in Porto. They are an amazing live band. This voice is something!!!

[@goddessofnightmares115]

Cammie is a goddess I discovered the band because kamelot idk why but it suggested me there with the decay of disregard and I'm still pretty speechless oceans of slumber is amazing. ❤

[@kirottumiekka1787]

If you like Tommy Karevik and Cammie, you should check the last Ayreon project 😉

[@alanaheim2979]

This song leaves me shaking, with such a powerful vocal delivery that pierces into your soul.

[@mike0near]

Perfect? Beautiful? Amazing? I can't find the word

[@armandov2424]

This song is just more than the sum of its parts. Definitely something they should be proud of for many, many years to come.

[@skywatchermusiclover]

"If you could find me...would you even know me" 💔...Cammie needs to collabe with Amy Lee or Lacey Strom. All three would be everything!🤘🌌🙏

[@ScimitarOfFire]

This is phenomenal. If the rest of the album is this good then this is definitely a first day buy.

[@mowtoll]

Wow Cammie can still suprise me with her depth and wide in her voice and i have follow OoS since blue EP

[@debraannlaprade6459]

Her voice is amazing. I love this band.

[@eugeniorinaldi9197]

Excellent music and vibration of my soul.

[@zialagainza9168]

Her voice is just fenomenal. Such Beauty

[@auralfixxation6702]

A band of grand designs. I was impressed with the previous release but this.., a musical journey. I so want to experience this live.

[@MolDooM]

Again, just like "The Decay Of Disregard": the more I listen to this song, the more it grows on me. Impressive emotional impact. This band is amazing and this voice... the best female metal vocalist I've heard in ages, so intense.

[@auralfixxation6702]

And once again I find myself posting on this..,and feeling as if I've fallen below it all. My dog died on February 20 and now.., these lyrics have dissolved into another weight upon me. So oddly pertaining a personal element to our story. For through a series misplaced footings, I was lost in the darkness and he found me. A intersectional rescue if you will. And here am.., I can not see it or feel it except for what's now lost. This song brings out the sadness that I just can not walk away from this time. A catalyst, not a cause.

[@kennyalderfer2939]

Thes guys are incredible! Without a doubt one of the best newer Metal acts I have heard in the last 4 years

[@kuchesezik]

Kenny Alderfer including arch echo?

[@kennyalderfer2939]

Arch Echo????

[@Castlemight]

Kenny Alderfer I think they mean Arch Enemy. If so they are great but definitely not the best. Within Temptation is better. Then there is Amon Amarth.

[@kennyalderfer2939]

First thing is first here, all of those bands you just mentioned are great and everything and I have been a big fan of Arch Enemy all of my life however they're not at all a new band they've been around since 1994 the same goes for Amon Amarth and also Within Temptation. These are also really great bands but neither one of them are alike so I don't see the comparison. The only comparison that I could ever see Arch Enemy ever having with Oceans of Slumber is the fact that their lead vocalist is a woman but in my eyes that argument would only hold true today if you're counting all of the years that they have been a band it would not be true because when they started they did not have a female vocalist at all

[@kennyalderfer2939]

And you really can't compare Within Temptation to Arch Enemy because it's a completely different style of Heavy Metal music

[@Fandrir]

This is one of these songs you have to listen to multiple times to really grasp how great it actually is, so much detail and variation. Also i feel this song works similar to classical music with a lot of change in pace and incorporating these drawn out slow and quiet parts, which is so rare in current music.

[@MysticMidwife]

Cammie has such a beautiful voice. Love this

[@auralfixxation6702]

Okay after more listens to the entire release, I feel sad that more people do not know of it. It's really difficult to sound different and this release has its own unique vibe. There is to me some unexpected paths taken. The title track is a true standout of genres and emotion. Bravo!

[@mchammer3432]

this band... sooo damn good.. only just stumbled onto them.. so worth it.. wish I would have discovered them sooner
