Oh, Sleeper - Son Of The Morning

[@GuillotineKing]

This band was not only ahead of its time.... But they, to this day, stand at the highest point of talent amongst other bands in this now broad genre. Hoping they get a resurgence!!!!

[@danialgriffin9634]

ELEVEN YEARS?!?!? HOW AM I JUST NOW FINDING THIS BAND?!?!

How have you never hear of them?? Been listening since 09. One of the greatest Post Hardcore bands on the planet

Check out the band This or the Apocalypse, theyre pretty good too

[@danialgriffin9634]

@@johnnymn4monic726 bro, your guess is as good as mine. Maybe YT algorithms weren't that great back then, maybe it filtered more to "mainstream" metal like Lamb of God and Whitechapel. But I like it, it's dope af and I'm now a fan

This song is fucken insane. i always come back to this band

This band is definitely in the top ten of best Metalcore bands. And hardly anyone can compare to their song writing skills.

Back 2009, I saw them and they were fucking awesome !!!

[@TheBourbonWrench]

I discovered this band all those years ago (yes 13 years, its making me feel old) but man were they ahead of their time. If this came out today, it would be the best metalcore song. It pains me not more people know about these guys. Better than majority of whats out there even today. Ill always be here.

[@MoreFSL]

My favorite concept album of all time. Those haunting “Ooos” in the second chorus get me every time

[@FlintSky1313]

I remember when this album was released, still a banger to this day.

[@koolkidinawheelchair]

This is probably the coolest concept album in history... the war between the devil and God... soooo freaking cool. and this song, the way they wrote it. GOOD GRAVY I LOVE IT!!!

[@gaudenzialcayde9081]

Lyrics: They call him the son of the morning... I am the rival I am the one who speaks in whisper Hear me now, dear Weak forgiver Hear me now, weak forgiver Hear me now! [Verse 1] Don't send an angel to face the devil You're wasting power on grace A maggot will always seek to feed from the grave Where I'll lead them and teach them to feast on the skin that defeats them The skin they crave [Chorus] If you could see like Me you'd see You haven't won anything (anything) If you could see like Me you'd see It's by My grace you're breathing (breathing) If you could see like Me you'd see You haven't won anything If you could see like Me you'd see [Verse 2] Every night I start my rise Climbing high into the morning sky But soon after I lose your pride And I damn Your son for stealing my light! This world is mine! They call me the son of the morning They call me the son of the morning I can mend all your fallen Pass the clouds as they roll in And when I do I will claim your throne Through all these cowards you call your sons I am the lord of air And my dawn will last forever Go on pouring out cause in the end I will have them

[@dudewhy2849]

Sooooo much symbolism in the music video! I love it!

[@alettaklopper9645]

Great concept album. The story is told really beautifully. I love this band for their honesty. They are not as pretentious as many Christian bands are. They are honest about their struggles and they do not make music with the pretence that they are perfect, but that they (well... one member) is a Christian in a world where (t)he(y) are a minority.

[@FlynDice]

I lost my head when they played this song live at the Lincoln this past weekend...0-mazing. I sang my throat raw!

[@vincentdamienarneo369]

After such a long time, so much literature being created and written since, Sammael aka Lucifer, the son of the morning, is still by far the greatest tragic character and anti hero ever written. For a being who despised humanity and wanted the love his father used to have for him and his brethren back, not seeing humanity as worthy of it, going so far in his anguish and envy to eventually reveal the farce in his fathers infallible wisdom and plan. Punished more harshly then could have been for seen or imagined to an eternity in a realm that mirrors the same pain and suffering he felt inside, never to rejoin his family above. Eventually becoming closer to humans then any other divine being, its just amazing. Even as an atheist the stories are among my favorites and this band really nailed a vision of him in the music and lyrics its perfect.

[@MeliaBaby]

i miss my band era. i love oh sleeper so much, even though i was heavily bullied for my choice of music as a little black girl living in the hood 😭

[@pikabob4916]

For those who can't distinguish what Micah says, it's "I can mound all your fallen past the clouds as they roll in." If you pay very close attenion, you can hear the "n" in "can" and you can hear the "u" sound in the word "mound". Now, I can see where people get mixed up with that, but, think about it like this, all the devil wants to do is step all over you, so why wouldn't he use all the fallen people to get to heaven and claim God's throne? I mean sure he can command them to invade heaven, but pretty much he wants to do that all by himself. Soo, yeah, hopefully I was able to help.

[@igotmywingsifly]

WELCOME TO HELL. HELL O.

[@AF-ud5nn]

God has already beat the crap out of Satan. He sent His son to sacrifice his life to pay for the only thing Satan had a charge against us- sin. The devil is defeated. The only thing he has left are lies that try to fool us. But don't be fooled, because of Jesus we are free.

[@jighflaukst]

It's so hard for me to pick a favorite album from these guys. All of them are near perfect for me.

[@Cl3ver]

I am not Christian but the message is still strong.

[@Voz34]

That guitar tone throughout the album is so good

[@Bloddthirstprince]

I think Oh, Sleeper is one of the best bands, amazing lyrics and the way they develop each one after the other making it like a story through out their CD's, makes it more interesting to listen to it.

[@D2LGuitaristOfficial]

Oh, Sleeper is so under rated. I mean August Burns Red and all those other huge bands are great. But Oh, Sleeper just has this certain sound that I love, and nobody can match it. Micah has the very best screams of anyone I've ever heard, and the guitars fit amazingly over everything as well as the drummer and great clean vocals as well.

[@videoghost]

I'm an atheist and I still love this song. Fucking epic.

[@danielbrowniel]

Atheism is boring. You should try reading the Bible. Being a Christian sucks most the time I'll be honest but I have far more peace than before.

[@videoghost]

+Daniel Brown I have read the Bible many times. I was a devout Christian for the first 23 years of my life. I find myself much more at peace knowing that whenever good things happen it's because I worked for it, not because a supposedly superior being deemed it "his will" and whenever bad things happen, it's just because sometimes bad things happen: No devil out to get be or deity trying to teach me a lesson. It's also nice knowing none of my dead family or friends are burning in hell. Lastly, I take much more peace knowing my morality stems from a desire to improve the world and society by introducing more goodness into it, rather than from a god who sometimes thinks rape, genocide, murder, slavery, misogyny, and war are okay and sometimes they aren't. my morality is superior to the Judeo-Christian God's, and I am at peace now more than ever because I never have to wonder "is this God's will"?
