Oceans Shares System Of A Down Cover

Oceans are back with their first new music since the release of their second studio album "Hell Is Where The Heart" Is last November! The German nu-metal band proudly presents their latest single "Chop Suey," a cover of the System Of A Down classic. As you would expect, the Germans have put their own stamp on the song, creating a darker version of the legendary track as they pay tribute to their roots.

Timo Rotten comments:
"'Toxicity' was one of my favorite albums when it came out, but I hadn't heard it in a while. Then Thomas dug it up again a few weeks ago and the question immediately came to my mind: How would this sound with growls? And whether I could do it at all. We just had to try it out. Did I get it right? I think you have to decide for yourselves." More...

Oceans Debuts "I Want To Be Whole Again" Single

After releasing their latest EP named "Hell Is Where The Heart Is - Part I: Love" in January of this year, rising German/Austrian nu-metal stars Oceans have already announced the highly anticipated second part of this masterpiece - the digital EP entitled "Hell Is Where The Heart Is - Part II: Longing", that will be released via Nuclear Blast on July 29th.

Today, they are already unleashing the second single off this EP, a dark and emotional hymn titled "I Want To Be Whole Again."

Timo Rotten comments: "This song was written in the midst of the pandemic at a low point in our lives. We had just lost one of the most important foundations of our sanity: playing live music. That was what had kept us sane all these years, and suddenly it was gone. There's a lot of longing and pain in 'I Want To Be Whole Again', and I'm sure you can hear that clearly.” More...

Oceans Premiere New Song "Skin"

British progressive/alternative hybrid Oceans have revealed their new single "Skin". The song is taken from their upcoming EP Far From Composure which will be released on March 13th.

The band commented "The song ‘Skin’ is a reflection of living day to day life with an atopic skin condition, and the self-confidence issues it can cause. ‘Skin’ talks of looking into the future and looking past the harder times and in an ideal world, would help to raise awareness for atopic conditions as they are very overlooked by doctors, yet from experience they cause a lifetime of discomfort."

Check out now "Skin" below.
