Recently, OCEANS released their second single “VOICES“ from the upcoming digital EP ‘WE ARE NØT OKAY, that is due to be released on April 30th. The third single, ‘SHARK TOOTH‘, that is out now, once again features a very special guest at the microphone: Christoph Wieczorek of the German Post-Hardcore pioneers ANNISOKAY.
In contrast to the dark and depressing topics the band usually deals with, ‘SHARK TOOTH‘, a powerful nu metal-infused banger, acts as a hopeful anthem for every lost soul out there.
Cooperating with The Ocean In Your Mind, A German NPO, the band adds a very serious tone to their newest output by turning “music for the depressed” into active help and encouraging fans to join the cause.
Raphael Funck, Founder of The Ocean In Your Mind e.V. adds: “We dream of a world, in which people can freely show their vulnerability. We are giving hope a voice and are fighting together against suicide and for mental health.”
The EP “We Are Nøt Okay” will be released on April 30th and contains four different songs dealing with all aspects of mental illness. Each track will feature a special guest adding his very own style to the new output of Berlin/Vienna based post metal heroes OCEANS.
Exclusive physical bundles of the EP, including a Ltd. CD Digipak + Shirt (ltd. to 200 copies!), are available at this location.
OCEANS also announce their “Never Lose Hope” tour Vol. 1 for January 2022. The tour consists of six shows at locations across Germany and Austria.
“The whole world is waiting to experience live shows again and we will bring some to you. We have so much new song material and plenty of playtime, so you’re definitely in for an unforgettable evening. There will be joy and tears, and we will unleash all the power, that we had to hold back for so many months.“– Timo Rotten
