I'm almost 38. I'm not so old, but at this stage of life you have developed strong musical foundations that are difficult to break. It's quite hard to find something that redefines, surprise and revamp your musical ways. The Ocean Collective achieves that. The perfect balance between a heavy sound that makes you want to mosh everywhere as well as you are healing inside. I really love the work of this guys.
Almost 38 too. hehehe 😁 I agree with all you said. They keep progressing and balancing quite well all their influences, past and present. And I'll throw one more thing that's quite interesting. With their albums you, imo, learn something new, like different world views and beliefs, the layers of the ocean, the geological eras of our planet, etc. Learning this stuff has never been this good. 😄
@@pablotournelle That's great Pablo, amazing live band, I saw them last year with LLNN and Playgrounded (check those out) and recently I saw them supporting Karnivool, I met them afterwards too.
It‘s crazy to think that Robin nearly drowned at this beach directly after filming the video. I am just happy he was rescued and can keep producing music that touches my every fibre. All the best to these guys! I like the new direction they are headed to.
Wait what?! What's the story? I'm so glad he's ok, saw these guys two nights ago and I dunno if I've ever felt so strongly for a band or group of musicians in my life. Bless this fucking group.

YES. FINALLY. This whole series of preview tracks I've been DYING for some of that phanerozoic heaviness with the rhythm guitar and the shouting vocals. This awesome classic sound combined with an AMAZING wtf introduction make this track damn near perfect for me. I do think they are frontloading us a bit with four singles being released prior to the album, but I can't deny that my favorite band still kicks ass. Love it. Can't wait for May.
Discovered you guys in 2011. The Centric duology had just been released and I immersed myself in it. Pelagial came soon after and became my favourite album of all time. I just love you guys. I am happy that you're still on the road. Much love from Brasil. That is all.
I've been going through quite challenging times lately in every aspect of my life, and this new Ocean album has become my soundtrack for coping with it all. I feel a strong connection to it, both musically and lyrically.
Such an epic conclusion of the Holocene concept. Loïc vocals are powerful than ever and Paul's drumming is exquisite. Surprised that this one is also a "oceanized" version of SHRVL's Response, which is a song I can't stop listening since its release.
SHRVL is the Oceans Synth player Peter Voigtmann doing a reimagining of the musical concepts of Holocene. There will be a whole album reimagining Holocene called Limbus. It’s basically the ocean stripped down for specific exploration of certain concepts under specific conditions. Mostly aimed at focusing on the synth work. It will be a such a tasty dessert when this album comes out. And oh man I didn’t even know about the 24 minute song that supposed to be at the end of the album. THAT is going to be fucking interesting
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze absolutely! I'm so excited for Limbus as well. EP I was very beautiful, so I'm pretty sure Peter did a wonderful work with his debut album
I absolutely love the new direction that you guys have been going, I'm so excited for the album. Although I really enjoy the older albums, the recent singles that have come out have leapfrogged The Ocean into becoming my favourite band.
Fuck what a closer! I was not even expecting a 4th single, but this is one hell of a welcome surprise! Cant wait to see what you guys have done to build the entire picture.
Que hype tengo por este nuevo album, cada cancion es ultra diferente, bien de The Ocean, no importa cuanto tiempo pase, ellos aunque con cada album suenen diferente siguen teniendo ese ADN propio ultra distinguible de ellos los adoro un monton ❤❤❤
The ebb and flow of it reminds me of She Was the Universe. The way he sings “Don’t act as if you were unaware of what lies ahead” is very similar to how he sings “I had a dream, which was not all a dream, the sun was extinguished, and the stars wandered darkling in space”
@Barry Adams After thinking, I think I still prefer it following the Shamayim fade in. Edit: Lyrically, Anthropocentric would make more sense as a follow-up. With the mention of "The Old Man" in both Subatlantic and Grand Inquisitor II, and the idea that humans are the end of the chain.
@@SeizedAlarm The vibraphone introduced at 2:57 is on point to the one in Shamayim. And the riff at 4:46 sounds similar to the intro riff of She Was the Universe. And I love the Cambrian theme being played like as if it was like a distant echo or an old memory. Like the resonance is still present from the Explosion but since time has passed the resonance is faint. I hope the album does lead into Heliocentric, because I think that was first release if im not mistaken. My Mind Would Infinity Explode if they do that.
Man really screwed over. Bought tickets to the 14th show in Melbourne, a day later the Ocean announce a second gig in Melbourne minus the Cave In and instead with Lo! Who are one of my favourite bands.
I never explored this "holocene" style/vibe beyond what The Ocean and Shrvl do, i come more from the metal side, but i am totally in love with the synth stuff. How is it called? Where can i find more of this sound? Thnks in advance :) Btw looking so forward to having the whole albums in hand, i like the singles so much
To me it feels like a mix between progressive/post-metal and more sludge metal styles. For suggestions around the more synth styled sounds I would suggest Leprous, The Ocean opened for them in 2022 on their US tour which how I found out about them. They're more mellow prog-metal/rock with a lot of amazing synth sounds
Agree, (older) Leprous would be the closest thing. Leans a bit more to alt metal than post metal, but has the synths, doominess and mix of clean and harsh vocals. Coal, Congregation and Malina albums specifically
than you for the suggestions! I already knew and respected Leprous, but i never thought they were for me, i probably gave them not enough attention (and i really love einar in ihsahn!) I also listened to playgrounded and they're soo pelagic records, that label is a true seal of quality!
@@Need4Needle so I suggest, persefone … metanoia, the first song is with einar, this Spanish band is incredible and so underrated but more metal prog, really incredible musicians, I listened this album 5 thousands times
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze The track is good. I hear words in my head from 2:06 "Can't somebody help me? All I need is to be" with Jonatan Davis voice, as Mark Shey too :) This is normal, given that the chord progression is similar as in the song "Korn - Somebody Someone"
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze what is your interpretation? I was just making a joke, but musically and conceptually it does seem a bit played out. I do like it though, what is the meaning?

Go see them live, they'll melt your face off - in a good way.

@@andrewanderson1755 „The metal tris“ has an interview with Robin, where they talk about it. There are also written interviews, just google it.
Was this filmed in Puerto Rico?
so the ocean tried to drown him and he survived? sounds as if he was baptized by the same big idea behind the collective
@@Dbbrainer Yes
SUBATLANTIC LYRICS:
„The spectacle is the sun that never sets over the empire of modern passivity. It covers the entire surface of the globe, endlessly basking in its own glory“
take heed
it’s getting warm
pay heed
to the alarm
take heed
you’ll be disarmed
pay heed
time has come
hey mate, this ain’t going away
death before surrender
wipe your slate clean
take heed
it’s getting warm
pay heed
to the alarm
take heed
you’ll be disarmed
pay heed
time has come
hey mate, this ain’t going away
listen to the wise old men
listen to what they’ve said
from the beginning
over and over again
don‘t act as if you were
unaware of what lies ahead
squeeze the last drop, lick it up
grow a better crop, use it up
we‘ve had time to develop the plot
and to plan our new home
a new colony
prepare for departure
cities of sand
under glass
this is our new civilisation
and the sun always shines
bright
the quote is from Guy Debord’s Society of the Spectacle, isn't it?

That sludge is NASTY 🤘 So hyped. Almost gives me a faint hint of Miocene|Pliocene but more menacing
Such a powerful band! Just discovered these gems! Love it!
Love the Eastern motifs in this one, and the CRRUNCH. Not that The Ocean 'need' the Crunch, but it's always fun when it drops.
This album is gonna be so freaking epic 🤌😭
I absolutely love the new direction that you guys have been going, I'm so excited for the album. Although I really enjoy the older albums, the recent singles that have come out have leapfrogged The Ocean into becoming my favourite band.

awesome...
We will get slapped so hard on the next tour cycle and I love it! ❤
Another flawless song in this upcoming album.
Rock al Parque Bogotá Colombia 2023 Que Chimbaaaa ❤
incredible song, completely in love with it
Outstanding fellas!!!
Que hype tengo por este nuevo album, cada cancion es ultra diferente, bien de The Ocean, no importa cuanto tiempo pase, ellos aunque con cada album suenen diferente siguen teniendo ese ADN propio ultra distinguible de ellos los adoro un monton ❤❤❤
This would be a great set opener! Followed by Jurassic/Cretaceous. Oh boy.
After seeing them live, I think Triassic is still better as an opener but this still is freaking awesome ❤
I saw them back in February at Baltimore Soundstage. Amazing band live!! I hope they come back 🤘🏻🖤
YYYYEEEEEESSSS Our The Ocean from Phanerozoic part I is back for a huge good to our Heart !!! I love you The Océan ❤❤❤ See you in Paris from 🇨🇵
Awesome👍👍👍🤘
Yeah - quite an amazing band! Didn´t know them till 2022. Saw them in Bochum. Simply very good! 🙂
God, this is phenomenal! Is anyone getting Aeolian vibes from Loics screams in this? With how distorted they sound, and even how it ends?
The ebb and flow of it reminds me of She Was the Universe. The way he sings “Don’t act as if you were unaware of what lies ahead” is very similar to how he sings “I had a dream, which was not all a dream, the sun was extinguished, and the stars wandered darkling in space”
That was awesome guys! Never stop doing what you do!
Nailed it...
Awesome!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Incredible song. Very much looking forward to getting this album. Long live The Ocean!
fuck yes, everytime The Ocean drops something is out of this world and makes my entire month worth it
After listening, I think this could be what leads into Heliocentric, as the fade out in Subatlantic transitions nicely into Shamayims fade in.
I hear a lot of ideas from Anthropocentric, I just can't pin point which songs at the moment. But its definitely the tone of the keys.
@Barry Adams Now that I think about it, this could definitely be an awesome transition to Anthropocentric. I can't tell which I prefer.

Today is a great day! New The Ocean video!
beautiful album !
Was für ein Brett und welch grandioses Video.

Best song from the new record!
Que hermoso lo que esta sucediendo con The Ocean , lo celebro! 💛🌊
Ok, these singles are making me believe this will be their best album so far, which is incredible given their past records.
wtf?
I love every single they've released so far, but Aeolian Is hard to compete against; such a phenomenal album.
@@SeizedAlarmYour pfp is literally precambrian and you’re saying aeolian? My man what?
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze I was obsessed with Aeolian when I wrote this comment lol
@@SeizedAlarm Fair enough lmao, I had the same thing happen except it was after I found precambrian so it never had a chance to be my favorite
Can't wait for you guys to come back to Oz.
Oh what?? where did you see them??
@@amccall3066 They came out here at the end of 2016, and they're here this week. Just saw them in Canberra 3 hours ago haha
A sick new band to listen to tmrw! 🤘🏽
Why can't I like a thousand times ?
Very epic, yet hard as f*ck. I really did it overall, especially the vocals.
PLEASE come back to Carrboro, NC!
Man really screwed over. Bought tickets to the 14th show in Melbourne, a day later the Ocean announce a second gig in Melbourne minus the Cave In and instead with Lo! Who are one of my favourite bands.
Invite us on tour when your tour for this album!! 😎😎
Super Sound voll meine Wellenlänge und das mit 64,viele Grüße an den Hamburger 🍔 in Magdeburg
A masterpiece ❤
Delicious 🤌
Can’t cheat death
Best band ever
Was this filmed Puerto Rico? Looks very similar to me. Awesome album.
What are Sleep Token doing in the video? Lol. J/k - fucking love it :)
Somebody please help me understand what is happening in the series of videos for this album?
❤❤
Классно! Круто!
GODAAAAYUM ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ist gute! I love you guys... Ich liebe dich now come to America bitte bitte bitte bitte
Ist gut! Ich liebe euch. Jetzt kommt nach Amerika. bitte bitte bitte

Reminds of vikings series, coal chamber, rob zombie and slipknot
4:46 Kinda gives me Sybreed vibes
Yeeeep, and 2:06 "Can't somebody help me? All I need is to be" (Korn - Somebody Someone)
@Gregory M Yeah, I can hear that.
very interesting given what Sybreed's music is often themed around
Holy fuck 🖤
Can anyone explain the overarching narrative of the videos from this album... I've seen them all but I feel like I'm missing something.
what's the damn Chimaira song this one reminds me of??
I need the fucking tabs for this 😂
OMG ROBIN, RUN FROM THE BLACK DURIAN MAN
класс
I thought my headphones were broken
Does anyone know Robin’s age? Lol just so curious..
He looks like whathisface Jamie Dornan from The Tourist

Bruh what?
hello kanye
ni fu, ni fa
Spike face doesnt work at a balloon store.
Oh no guyz climate change gonna git ya say the neutered gojira 😂
Both Gojira and The Ocean are amazing
Petulance and shallow interpretation. This is about way more than climate change
I prefeer The Ocean, they are more unique for me, Gojira is always the same, and a bit boring
@Mat Romero Same, but I still love The Way of all Flesh
