British Oceansize was one of the most interesting bands around. They are labelled progressive but that doesn’t do the band justice. The style of music changes from song to song, showcasing incredible musicianship while perfectly blending styles that would normally clash. The songs/parts can change from something resembling Coldplay, to A Perfect Circle, to Meshuggah and back again seamlessly. Oceansize draw on a long list of influences that also includes Pink Floyd, the Police, U2, the Cocteau Twins, Roxy Music, and, of course, the Beatles. Their 2007 album, Frames, veers a bit into alternative metal and hardcore territory, but the album’s heavier, more metallic moments are the exception instead of the rule; this is a band that, all things considered, would rather float than rock. Frames is by far Oceansize’s most consistent release — and it is a good place to start out if one is exploring their work for the first time. The album communicates such a specific, palpable mood and atmosphere, while remaining dynamic enough to weave in both Savant and Sleeping Dogs, is nearly unparalleled in modern rock. The band also has an amazing vocalist with a voice that is both melodic and haunting while changing to suit the song. He shows such a great range. Overall the album doesnt miss a beat and its a great choice for anyone that’s into complex music. So, lush, intricate rhythms, mesmerizing lyrics, astounding drumming and a clean sound. What more do you want?
