Oathbreaker is a Belgian hardcore punk band from Ghent, East Flanders, formed in 2008. They are currently signed to Deathwish Inc. Their style is unusual in fusing hardcore with black metal. Their female lead vocalist, Caro Tanghe, performs screamed and occasionally sung vocals. They have released one EP and two studio albums, their latest being 2013's Eros|Anteros, which introduced elements of post-metal to their sound. A followup album, Rheia, is set to be released in 2016.
"Oathbreaker" is the third episode of the sixth season of HBO's fantasy television series Game of Thrones, and the 53rd overall. It was written by series co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, and directed by Daniel Sackheim, his directorial debut for the series.
At the Wall, Jon Snow ( Kit Harington) is found alive by Ser Davos ( Liam Cunningham) and Melisandre ( Carice van Houten). Jon proceeds to execute his assassins for treason, and afterwards says his Watch has ended as he leaves Castle Black. At Winterfell, Ramsay Bolton ( Iwan Rheon) is presented with the gift of Rickon Stark ( Art Parkinson). Bran Stark ( Isaac Hempstead Wright), accompanied by the Three-eyed Raven ( Max von Sydow) witnesses the confrontation at the Tower of Joy, where his father attempts to rescue his sister, Lyanna, but Bran is ultimately prevented from entering the tower. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen ( Emilia Clarke) arrives at Vaes Dothrak where her consequences for leaving the khalasar will be determined, and in Braavos, a blind Arya Stark ( Maisie Williams) gives up her old life and sees anew as "no one".
"Oathbreaker" received high praise from critics who found the episode to have strong, forward-moving storytelling, although not presenting as many shocking moments, while also listing the Tower of Joy flashback as the highlight of the episode. In the United States, the episode premiere achieved a viewership of 7.28 million in its initial broadcast. The episode earned an nomination at the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing for a Drama Series.
