"Onsra" is a word from the Boro language, spoken by the Boro people in India. It describes the bittersweet feeling of loving for the last time, knowing that the love will not last. It's a poignant word that captures the mixture of deep affection and the sadness of knowing that the relationship is coming to an end.
My mom’s cancers winning my mental is breaking but they say music is therapy and for that I’ll always be happy for songs like this to push me in my darkest times. I’m gonna need this album more than OAA knows.
Been a vocal teacher for almost a decade and I have never heard a more complete vocalist in my life. The dude can do everything, and do it perfectly. What a voice, can't help but respect it and fall in love with it.
So true....I hated hearing james left because I thought he brought the original sound back with him and I was excited that they were back as all og members then this guy comes and blew my mind when I seen them live awhile back....dude is ultra talented and sounds amazing live

Nah new Oceans don't compare to Invent in any realm. Honestly never did. Still a great band! Guitars Sounds different without Adam for sure. Kinda a bummer.
I think thematically thats the point, Onsra, to paraphrase, means a love you know ends - bittersweet. This song addicting and temporary embodies that. Your comment actually helped me realise this lol
OAA has been one of my top 5 bands since Hikari, but this vocal style is exactly what this band needed, it feels complete now. I couldn't be more excited for the new album!
I just can't get over how good the mix is in OAA. Since Hikari, they have such a signature sound, making it hit so hard while not giving headache from all the notes played Shoutout to Nick, this is so great (same goes for I Am Abomination's last album)
I know America isn't everybodys' favorite country right now, but seriously when are you guys coming to America again? I haven't had a chance to see you guys yet and you're literally my favorite metal band. I'm sure many here would also agree.
Ive been a fan since the Lost Isles days, in 2015. Saw you guys live when you were on tour with We Came As Romans for the Cold like War tour. I still have the picture that I had took with you and as well it was pleasure to meet you guys. I still have my copy of Hikari that i had you guys sign and its so awesome to have that memory to hold on to. I was sweating in the pit and signatures came off of the cover so you guys had instead signed the cover of the CD book let so that way the signatures would stay there and not rub off when i told you guys what happened, Thank you guys. Keep up the amazing work!!
I've been following the band for about 10 years and one thing is for sure, you never disappoint regardless of the singer who joins the band, you're all great artists!
I follow OAA from Argentina🇦🇷 , and I follow them since their beginnings and with each new song they are improving and doing quite well with this change of formation! greetings🤘
Exact same! Loved their first ep and their first album. Hansha and stuff was alright but not my style for some reason. This is my absolute favorite from them so far.
Intro by itself encapsulates the feeling of floating in heaven/ether and then starting to fall down and finally enter hell. From celestial beauty to utter filth.
New Vox is knock your socks off good. With these instrumentals and Justin on vocals, this match up is something you dont want to take your eyes off of. Will be waiting for new releases. Well done gentleman.
Just. A bit. more... Please? So damn good. Ive been on board since the EP. I believe clocks or tamming lions was my first introduction a decade ago. No strings and blue lungs made me a lifer and now look at how far this band has come. Never have been disappointed once and always amazed james and jake brought there own flavor to the band but each album had its own unique sound and each was undoubtedly the unmistakable sound of OAA and now after the last two songs released the "new guy" has me 100% certain that this trajectory hasnt reached its peak. So excited guys! Thank you
Chris providing the percussive section equivalent to attending a meditation retreat whilst beaming on a high dose of ADHD meds during those openong verses.... focused, somehow calm, yet so busy and precise all at the same time. Amazing.
I will never get over just how god awful talented the drummer of this band is.
Gotta be a joke....

cool fact!!
I believe love last I seen it in a different time my friend many times
It also means "He takes a shit" in Polish...
Both are so poetic in their own way
Haha! I am from Assam in India and live very near the Heartland of the Bodo people. Quite amazing, finding a little tidbit of home in this song.
That's beautiful I can relate
I feel like relationships are fleeting
My mom’s cancers winning my mental is breaking but they say music is therapy and for that I’ll always be happy for songs like this to push me in my darkest times. I’m gonna need this album more than OAA knows.
All the best to your Mother, so sorry to hear 🖤
Chris Turner doing Chris Turner things 🔥🔥🔥
Let him cook! 🧐
Chris Turner IS Oceans Ate Alaska. ❤
Thought 100% the same, after just 2 sek of him playing.
Facts, that man is a chef
should collab with Chris Vaughn!
bro sings, bro screams, bro is the real addition of the band atm
Lmaoo good shit
Holy smokes this is one of the best choruses I’ve heard this year
🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
listen to ALLT there new song Aquila song of the year
Sounds like most Invent Animate choruses 😂
@@wingslikeairplanesTVexactly like IA in my opinion haha
Aquila is fucking gold bro@@jackmorgan-webster9538
OAA is like a limited edition clothing line. Same Brand name, just a different detail each album.
Vocals sound like sam carter, Noah Sebastian, and ryo kinoshita blended in one person, WELL DONE
A bit of landon if there too
Yeah like a ryo
Sounds like he wont be payed fairly
nah not at all. Ryo the only comparable one in parts.
Doesn’t he though great comparison.
bruh can SING. I knew he was a good fit for OAA!
This song is incredible! Both Onsra and Endless Hollow have completely blown me away and now I am all in on this new era for Oceans Ate Alaska!
Chris Turner is a beast, the band goes with him so well, long live for them
I’ve been replaying this since it came out

He's pretty rounded for sure. He's been my fav OAA vocalist so far
Hes basic. Generic. Has alot of tones but they all sound like someone. Makes him just a poser. Likely what he tries to do.
@@mcbassinfaas7285 Wow, you sound like a basic, generic hater.
Love it, can’t stop listening. I love this era
Oceans invent Alaska
Nah new Oceans don't compare to Invent in any realm. Honestly never did. Still a great band! Guitars Sounds different without Adam for sure. Kinda a bummer.
@@stevenjohnston2297 I’m talking about the vocals, sounds exactly like them lol when he’s yell screaming
@@stevenjohnston2297 they almost always did tho, both melodic metalcore
@@stevenjohnston2297not a bummer and doesn't sound different
The one thing wrong with this song is that its only 3 mins long. Give us more!! This is a banger 🔥
I completely agree, the melodic parts are such a vibe, and that chorus absolute hits, Joel is crushing it.
Sometimes less is more
I think thematically thats the point, Onsra, to paraphrase, means a love you know ends - bittersweet. This song addicting and temporary embodies that. Your comment actually helped me realise this lol
love melodic oaa more of this please
🙌🏻
Yes really happy about the clean vocals here too!!! 🔥
I cant escape frm this song, its always in my head. Its so addicting and catchy
The Drums are literally insane !! Good shit 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Didn't expect otherwise from Chris...
@@oSileyCT-7212 Streezy has been on repeat since it dropped mate 🔥
The most overproduced drum sounds to date
Such a great band. Been listening to these guys a lot in the past year. Miss the ol singer but this guy is a good fit 🧩
New vocalist is amazing!!
Original/founding*
@@6scrubs ?
@6scrubs that's not James
@@lex_C_88 you are correct, I knew james came back but didn't realize he left recently
@6scrubs yeah he said returning was a bad decision
OAA has been one of my top 5 bands since Hikari, but this vocal style is exactly what this band needed, it feels complete now. I couldn't be more excited for the new album!
Despite the drama that went on, this line up seems to be on a good path. Probably my favourite song yet tbh
blew it out the park with this one, holy fucking shit
Thank you so much 🙌🏻
Great song. Chris stands out in this one... Great drummer.
as with all their songs lol
I just can't get over how good the mix is in OAA. Since Hikari, they have such a signature sound, making it hit so hard while not giving headache from all the notes played
Shoutout to Nick, this is so great (same goes for I Am Abomination's last album)

@@NickSampsonOfficialTHE MAN HIMSELF
New frontman kicks ass 👀

HUNDRED AND TEN PERCENT BROTHER!
Joel's been one of my fav for years, didn't knew he had such beautiful cleans, since he only let small touches shine before !
What happen with the other vocalist? Why am i hearing yall wernt paying him right? @@oceansatealaska
Yeah let's just hope they pay this one fairly.
The drummer is a vibe.
He has a name. It’s God

To woke for America..
Can’t wait for a full album with this lead vocalist!
of course they come out of left field and drop a banger. flam on kicks forever
You guys helped me through my hardest times and I just gotta say after being a fan since 2015, this is by far my favorite vocalist. Best sound yet!!
This means the world to us, thank you so much for this comment and your support 🫶🏻 We wish you all the the best!
A tour with Veil of Maya, Structures and Auras would be sick
AGREED💯

The simple OAA goes just as hard as the technical stuff. Love this 🤘

That's creativity, I can"t stop listening ! The new vocalist is amazing by the way, I hope I get to see you live one day ! 😊
That was amazing. It's Oceans Ate Alaska. Of course it is!
I really think this is the song of the year! Been a hefty 12 years since I first heard Oceans Ate Alaska, and I love this new vocalist!
The vocal range plus Chris machine drumming... Omg the new sound is ❤❤❤
Just in one word: UNBEATABLE ❤🔥
Now this is a good metal song!!!! Great singing… epic screams and growls, amazing drums, bass is nice and deep and beefy. I like it!!!!
This right here just pulled me out of a 22 year depression (I’m only 22yo)
this is a really good song. new frontman rips. jaw completely on floor.
I've been following the band for about 10 years and one thing is for sure, you never disappoint regardless of the singer who joins the band, you're all great artists!
Amaising, u are broke ussualy progmetal style two times AGAIN, and AGAIN u do this!
Great masters, woosh... Bravo, bravo!!!

Songs like this hit hard. Such an amazing vibe!
Different frontman, same banger 🔥
This is my first song I've heard from y'all, I shall explore the entire discography now‼🤩🔥🔥
Now THIS is a banger!!!
I love bands that have that soft and heavy mix
Make sure u check out Invent Animate then if you’ve never heard of them 🫵🏼😉
@@thyno0b85thanks for mentioning the goat
I follow OAA from Argentina🇦🇷 , and I follow them since their beginnings and with each new song they are improving and doing quite well with this change of formation! greetings🤘
Thank you so much for supporting us from the beginning! Peace and love from England 🖤
Bro, this dude singing Benzaiten must fire 😮💨🔥
Chris actualmente es el mejor baterista del mundo, opinión personal
Lo es, y hace años 🤝
I am absolutely here for this new era
First time when. I listen to this band. Incredible .❤❤❤❤
I can feel this song
New album when boiis? Good to see you checkin in after 6 months and wrecking my face.
We’re on it! 😎
Let them cook 😎
Literally PERFECT!!!
Chris Turner could play in a country song and I'd buy it. Also, loving this new singer.
I’ve loved OAA since the beginning, but this is breaking new ground. F’ing amazing, dudes 🤘🖤
Dont know how many times I played it, no sense how good it is.
Shit. I am completely blown the freak away. WTH did I just hear? A work of freaking art!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Been listening since 2017 much love boys new song is amazing and the new vocalist is a beast probably my fave oaa vocalist
Thank you so much for supporting us for all these years! It means the world to us 🫶🏻
Exact same! Loved their first ep and their first album. Hansha and stuff was alright but not my style for some reason. This is my absolute favorite from them so far.
100 percent a banger!!! ❤OAA
Whoa. Pretty cool guys. Keep it up. Unique stuff.
Loved Joel in silent screams, super keen what he brings to OAA! 💪🏻
This should be another masterpiece after "hansha", love it !!!
They sound awesome together with him! Love it!
It’s so light.. yet so heavy!
You guys can't put out a bad song I swear. And we thank you for it!
Shreddy Kreuger vibes on this one. That's a great thing btw. Banger.
OOOOOhhhhh love this!
This is my first track of this band and it really cool!!! Drum part in the beginning is just unreal!!!
God damn what a display of vocal range .
Intro by itself encapsulates the feeling of floating in heaven/ether and then starting to fall down and finally enter hell.
From celestial beauty to utter filth.
Most fitting vocalist so far.
This is quite possibly the perfect OAA song. It has everything I want from them and more.
Era todo lo que necesitaba escuchar❤
Jesus... this is amazing!
New Vox is knock your socks off good. With these instrumentals and Justin on vocals, this match up is something you dont want to take your eyes off of. Will be waiting for new releases. Well done gentleman.
Goodness this is sick! Love the new vocals so so much 😍🔥🫶🏼
uncleans reminds me of how mirrors sound. incredible song i can't stop listening to it. please make more
nunca decepcionam!
Ok, I'm hooked. More please.
Thank God y’all are back! Love the opening lines! Stay prayed up y’all. Even when things seem the hardest, that’s when He’s closest. 🙏🔥🔥🔥
On sra, ona sra... fantastic song as usual guys! Chris is a legend :)
BANGER ! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Nice comeback guys! i'm loving it! Keep bringing it! The brains of gods
“Cause I’ll never let you go, Holding on with you till the end”
When you have kids this hits hard 👌🏼
Absolutely fabulous. Sounds amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If can sing this live this way, Joel probally is the best clean vocal in the history of OAA
Chris immaculate on drums as always. And an amazing video by Olli!
such a good vibe with the new singer
This new vocalist is fire , god damn , I like him more than the other ones before
THATS OAA how we want and like them
Love this track. I can’t wait for a full album. ❤
