Album Review: The Ocean ‘Heliocentric’

Let me start off this review by saying this: Go out and buy this album. This is an album that reminds listeners what a musical journey is all about. The Ocean has created a sonic landscape that is a joy to travel through. This album traverses from heavy pounding riffs to mellow, beautiful passages that warrant inner reflection. This is one of those albums that you start and don’t touch afterwards. It needs to be listened to in its entirety to be fully appreciated.
