Belgium’s Oathbreaker have premiered the official video for their track “Immortals” via RollingStone.com. The hauntingly beautiful track is off of the band’s new album, Rheia, which is comprised of shoegaze-filled blackened metal/hardcore. Check out the equally stunning video after the break.
Vocalist Caro Tanghe comments:
“The song is about emotional betrayal and how that numbed me for a long time. Being apathetic to any form of social and emotional engagement. In the video we wanted to push the viewer in a voyeuristic position. Looking at scenes you’re not allowed to see. It’s a weird, awkward sexual setting and the lead person is not part of it. It’s about being numb to your surroundings, apathy in an extreme situation as this.”
Rheia is out now through Deathwish Inc. and is available here. Check out our own Lane Oliver’s review of the record here.
