Houston, Texas-based progressive metal \/ rock band Oceans Of Slumber have filmed a music video for the song \u2018The Hanging Tree\u2019. Directed by Angela Herr and Bianca Greene, the clip can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Regarding the song, vocalist Cammie Beverly said: \u201cAn old childhood home, a frequently visited spot along the meadow, a closet we pass in our grandmother\u2019s 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oceans Of Slumber issued fifth full-length studio album Starlight And Ash<\/em> on July 22nd, 2022 through Century Media Records.<\/p>\n

Cammie Beverly commented: \u201cThe album Starlight And Ash<\/em> is scenery and stories inspired by characters, settings, and themes from the band\u2019s (traumatic) childhood experiences. These encounters are woven into the lives and tales of individuals in a fictitious community living on the Gulf Coast.\u201d<\/p>\n

Starlight And Ash<\/em> was produced by Joel Hamilton and mastered by Maor Appelbaum. <\/p>\n

Cover artwork was once again created by Eliran Kantor.<\/p>\n
