American metalcore band, Oh, Sleeper have released the music video for “Fissure” today. Watch the video now below.
“Fissure” is the second single off of the band’s fourth full-length album Bloodied/Unbowed, which was released on Friday, July 12 via Solid State Records. It is now available across streaming services including Spotify, Apple Music, and more: http://solidstate.lnk.to/sleeper. Physical copies are available for purchase at https://ohsleeper.merchnow.com/.
Bloodied/Unbowed is the band’s first full-length record in almost a decade. The album follows the concept of their previous release, The Titan, and is laid out like a book – every song a chapter in the story from start to finish. It follows two characters as they suffer cataclysmic changes, forcing them apart and through their own personal crucibles before finding their way back to each other bloodied, but unbowed, determined to grow to be what they were born to be.
On “Fissure,” lead vocalist Micah Kinard shares, “This song shares the struggle of caring for someone crying out for help but that won’t take on the care given, the care they need, and instead, just keep running back to the things that broke them in the first place; sometimes even trying to drag you into the same brokenness. In the concept of the album, this song crescendos into an argument between the two main characters that ultimately divides them away from each other and onto their own singular paths of self-discovery.”
In support of the current album cycle, the band is hitting the road for a headlining tour with support from Famous Last Words, Convictions and Empty, running from July 16th to August 13th. Following that, Oh, Sleeper will be supporting Hawthorne Heights on their upcoming 15th anniversary tour, from August 15th to August 28th. For a full list of dates, please see below.
