OCEANS OF SLUMBER Premiere ‘The Hanging Tree’ Music Video
July 22nd, 2022

Houston, Texas-based progressive metal / rock band Oceans Of Slumber have filmed a music video for the song ‘The Hanging Tree’. Directed by Angela Herr and Bianca Greene, the clip can be viewed below.

Regarding the song, vocalist Cammie Beverly said: “An old childhood home, a frequently visited spot along the meadow, a closet we pass in our grandmother’s house, a tree in the town center that has scars from its terrible past… places hold memories and they never forget them even when buried under the changes of time.”

Oceans Of Slumber issued fifth full-length studio album Starlight And Ash on July 22nd, 2022 through Century Media Records.

Cammie Beverly commented: “The album Starlight And Ash is scenery and stories inspired by characters, settings, and themes from the band’s (traumatic) childhood experiences. These encounters are woven into the lives and tales of individuals in a fictitious community living on the Gulf Coast.”

Starlight And Ash was produced by Joel Hamilton and mastered by Maor Appelbaum.

Cover artwork was once again created by Eliran Kantor.
