Upon arriving, Cathy begins receiving frightening premonitions as the ocean continues to claim more victims. Judith O’ Dea (Night of the Living Dead) will play a scuba diver who, along with Cathy, ultimately discovers that a watery apocalypse may soon be at hand.

German prog-metal band The Ocean have released a new song entitled “Bathyalpelagic II: The Wish In Dreams” (say that ten times fast), which comes from their upcoming album Pelagial (out April 30th via Metal Blade Records). The album is available for pre-order here.
The track bears a strong resemblance to Mastodon, which is always an awesome thing. Give her a listen below. READ MORE
German progressive metal band The Ocean have launched a landing page for their upcoming album Peligial, which will be released April 30th via Metal Blade Records. The album was written, recorded and mixed as one single 53-minute take. The album was mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Katatonia) at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden.
The album will be released as a double album, including both an instrumental and a vocal version of the album. Instrumental samples are available to listen to on their landing page here. The CD version will be released as a 10-page digipak with artwork by Seldon Hunt.
Below is the band’s video for “The Grand Inquisitor II: Roots & Locusts”, which comes from their Anthropocentric album. READ MORE
What better way to start a Monday than with some sweet videos, right? After the jump, you can check out new videos from Norma Jean (‘Basterdizer‘) and The Ocean (‘Roots And Locusts‘). ‘Basterdizer‘ has an obsession with some super up-close shots of the band and their respective instruments while ‘Roots And Locusts‘ has some really cool black and white imagery.

One of my favorite releases this year was The Ocean’s Heliocentric. I really dug the sound and the epic feeling of the album and that’s what makes this news so tough to hear. The band, during their European tour, were robbed in Spain. Here’s the details from the band:
To celebrate the album’s release, The Ocean’s Robin Staps has filmed short video clips that describe in detail the lyrical and musical concepts behind each song on Heliocentric. Those clips are live now on The Ocean and Metal Blade YouTube channels, as well as on metalblade.tv.
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.
MetalSucks.net, in addition to being one of the premiere destinations on the web for metal-centric commentary and articles, are huge supporters of The Ocean. They’re teaming up with Metal Blade Records and The Ocean to exclusively stream Heliocentric in its entirety on Thursday, April 8th through Friday, April 9th. This will be the first chance for fans to hear the songs on Heliocentric and new vocalist Loic Rossetti’s sound. Previously, only 30 second instrumental clips were available on theoceancollective.com/heliocentric.
The Ocean has created a very cool page in support of their upcoming album ‘Heliocentric’. Viewers can hear snippets of the songs on the album as well as read the lyrics. I’ve checked it out and some of the samples sound very intriguing and the lyrics make for an interesting read, to say the least.
German progressive metallers The Ocean (sometimes known as The Ocean Collective) have announced “Heliocentric” and “Anthropocentric” as the titles of two albums coming out later this year. They are due in April and October, respectively. Check inside for more details as well as links to hear some samples!
The Ocean updated their myspace page announcing their new singer and plans for not one, but two albums set to be released in the new year.
“We are happy to announce Mr. Loïc Rossetti as tour new vocalist. “We are looking forward to weeks and months of intense touring in the future and a new era in the story of our lives!“, comments Robin Staps.
They’re currently hard at work finishing up their upcoming 2 albums which are due for March and September 2010 releases. Hopefully one of the two will find a semi-permanent home in my music rotation and I’ll finally be able to stop playing “Fluxion” on repeat. READ MORE
