It is with deep emotions to announce that our brother Tim McDonald and Oblivion Myth have parted ways.
We are so very thankful for the incredible years, accomplishments and contributions all made together with him.
We bless Tim in his future endeavors both personal and musical.
Oblivion Myth will continue forward in faith with God's guidance and as always trusting in Him for the future.

Our good friend and fellow bandmate, Chris Selby, moved to Phoenix Arizona this past Christmas. We wish him well on the next phase of his life with his new endeavors and he will be missed terribly. His contributions to Oblivion Myth have been amazing and greatly appreciated and we feel so blessed with his friendship and musicianship. We are half way through album #4 and Chris is a big part of it.
I started working with Chris on and off for the past 16 years and he has always been apart of the OM family and the door is always open for him to return. Cheers to the "tone master" Chris Selby. God bless you Chris!

“So we turn over our recording project to our Producer, Andy Freeman, who was actually the singer on the first Oblivion Myth album. We want him to take his time with it, so we are looking at a spring 2020 release. There are 11 tracks, including a short symphonic intro composed by bassist Ryan Mark.
“The format will be a natural evolution from Inside The Mirror. We'll have scriptural references associated with each song that inspired or help explain the lyrics and where we were coming from. We'll make real CDs with full-size jewel cases as well as offering the album on every streaming and download site.
“The band now starts rehearsing after a long summer of recording and making all sorts of tweaks and edits in the project. We actually spent probably quite a bit more studio time on this new album than previously, and we think you will hear the difference. It's going to be more polished, more layers, more complete.
“I'm really proud of how Keith Smith's guitar playing has taken a quantum leap forward. With original rhythm player Chris Selby now back in the lineup, Keith has the solid partner he's wanted so that he can evolve into a shredding lead player, and I think you'll hear the difference on this new album. We think this is the strongest lineup the band has ever had, and Ryan Mark on bass is a big part of that, he is an awesome musician, multi-instrumentalist, composer, writer, and performer. Bob Schultz tried some new things on drums, and I was able to hit some sick high notes i think metal fans will appreciate."
Oblivion Myth's music knows that The Struggle Is Real, we all face these challenges and temptations in our daily lives on this planet Earth, we all go through trials and this experience is what binds us together and makes us One. The music offers a positive contrast to the typical doom-and-gloom angst found in some heavy metal. It questions, it looks for answers, and it appeals to Divine Providence for guidance. The songs will speak to you, will make you think and give you strength while sending you on a roller coaster of intense, hard-driving, head-banging metal music ride.
The Band's new CD, "INSIDE THE MIRROR", released July 8 2016, is their best work yet. Recorded by Curtis Erdek, mixed and mastered by Andy Freeman, this team effort of over 65 minutes of original, mind-blowing metal music, complete with conceptual interludes, is an amazing journey that takes you through time and space, and into the most dangerous realm of all -your own heart and mind. "INSIDE THE MIRROR" is available for physical purchase through CD Baby, and can be obtained at all digital media distribution sites like iTunes and Amazon.
Currently the band is touring in support of their new album, and making new fans everywhere they play. They are renowned for putting on the most energetic, exciting and entertaining concert performances ever seen. Their dynamic sound, endless energy and exceptional skills are showcased every time they perform. These players are for real, they bring it live, and you will see, hear and feel their talent coming through loud and clear! You will never forget the thrill of a live Oblivion Myth concert, that's a promise!

“There are plenty of reasons you might like the idea of making Inside The Mirror, the summer of 2016 sophomore release of Nashville, Tennessee based Oblivion Myth, a priority purchase... devotees of the hard music scene are certain to see the appeal to the compelling songwriting, accomplished lead vocals, proficient musicianship and professional production... Inside The Mirror is not so much the best album I have heard in 2016 (at least up to this point), but perhaps the best album I have heard in the past several years... I esteem Inside The Mirror to such an extent that if I had delayed writing the article by several months I would easily have included it- and changed the title to The ELEVEN Best Albums Of The Past Ten Years in the process! ” - Angelic Warlord, Your Christian Metal & Hard Rock Resource
“The first time I experienced the power metal awesomeness of Oblivion Myth™ I was driving into town and heard the guys on 102.9 fm playing tracks from their debut album and I was truly blown away. A year later Oblivion Myth, Killing Grace and Halcyon Way sold out not ONE but TWO shows together in their hometown of Nashville and recently myself and the guys in Killing Grace and Oblivion Myth played another highly successful show in Memphis, TN @ the legendary Stage Stop. If you've never seen them you won't ever forget it when you do, and if you've never heard them, rush out and pick up a copy of their latest release"Inside the Mirror", you will LOVE this cd and you will LOVE this band, one of my favorites! ” - Matthew Dee Edmondson, Lead Singer for KILLING GRACE on Red Arrow Records
