The Ocean - Heliocentric (2010)




THE HOLY GRAIL OF CONFUSION

i am half way between loving this band or hating their guts, i have no idea what to think about this band and i've seen them live twice now and i have ALL ALLLLLLLLLL their releases, i've paid 40$ to get their Precambrian lp over to my house, and... well i don't know

so they're releasing two albums this year which to me is terrifying BUT it has a chance to not be all bad news. they took 3 years off, maybe this is an epic, maybe this is just diarrhea, maybe this is another turd ontop of the already clogged toilet that is sludge metal.

i have a feeling if i ever read the lyrics to one of their songs i'd fucking spit blood all over myself german people trying to be all yes-like with their songs must be a fucking pig pile of NO! (see the yes/no joke there?)

end on a high note, like a yes no joke. misery.

you have all this band's releases yet you don't know if you like them or hate their guts? what the fuck is your problem?

being indecisive about a band is that odd of a concept to you that you had to leave a comment on a blog?

you ok?

I too have all their releases and am unsure how I feel about these dudes. I usually like each new record for about a week and then I never go back to it again. After sampling this new record I think it's time to leave these guys behind.

I wish these guys just stuck to the whole folk/dark-jazz thing, and dropped all that "sludge-_____" hyphenation, they might be slightly more successful..
