Oathbreaker is a Belgian band that has made significant waves in the hardcore and metal scenes since their formation in 2008. Known for their intense, emotionally charged music that deftly combines elements of post-hardcore, black metal, and sludge, Oathbreaker has carved out a unique space for themselves with their potent blend of aggression and melody. After their self-titled EP set the tone for their sound, they further explored and expanded their sonic palette with albums such as "Mælstrøm" (2011) and "Eros|Anteros" (2013), which showcased the band's ability to balance raw ferocity with moments of haunting beauty.

The band reached a new creative peak with their 2016 release "Rheia," a critically acclaimed album that saw them pushing the boundaries of extreme music and gaining a broader fanbase with its expansive and atmospheric approach. The emotional depth and technical prowess on "Rheia" resonated deeply within the metal community, confirming Oathbreaker's reputation as a powerful and innovative force. After a period of silence, the band surfaced again with the single "Ease Me" in 2020, followed by "Ease Me & 4 Interpretations," which featured remixes by various artists, further exemplifying the band's willingness to experiment and collaborate in the ever-evolving landscape of heavy music. This adaptability and consistent evolution of their sound keeps Oathbreaker as a band to watch within the contemporary music scene.
