--> Since overplaying (and still enjoying) their first studio album ‘Cutting Our Teeth’ I have been anticipating for new material from these lads. This week, We Are The Ocean released a new video for ‘What it Feels Like’ taken from the second forthcoming album ‘Go Now and Live’. They will be embarking on a headline tour in April after its release. The single track was made available to download from their website in January. Oh and they haven’t let me down in the slightest and to say I’m creaming for their gig would be an underestimation. Still an undercurrent post-hardcore band, the 5 piece from Essex swoon their fan base once again. Mixing a hardcore verse with a melodic chorus has been done before, right? But these chaps have a slight enchantment and style of delivery that packs a punch into your trunk. The bands climax comes down to the recipe of rhythm, Liam Crombys oily thick vocals and Dan Browns rasping screams, which I can imagine is a particular taste that does not necessarily suit all. Having said that, when they released their debut EP ‘we are the ocean’ in 2008, all 1000 copies sold in one day. We Are The Ocean auto-tune the introduction of ‘What it Feels Like’. The lyrics are coincidentally appropriate for the single pringles on Valentines Day tomorrow. In true fashion, they blast a coherent roaring verse then subsequently strip back to stunning vocals, a simple drum beat and rhythmic guitar. Like me, the fans are biting at the video like mosquitoes, blood thirsty for the melody again and again.
