OCEANSIZE feature and CD review in Lust For Life magazine

September 13th, 2010

Very cool feature and 5/5 CD review in the October issue of Lust For Life magazine. Also listed in writer’s monthly favorites and on subscriber’s pages.

“Oceansize verweeft ook op dit vierde album indringende metalriffs ongedwongen met warme en melodieuze postrock. Virtuoze songstructuren, de verfijnde opbouw van de liedjes en nieuwe elementen, zoals de prachtige violen in Oscar Acceptance Speech, bewijzen dat het hardere gitaargeweld geen gebrek aan ideen verstomt. Indrukwekkend.”

OCEANSIZE CD review and in charts Mania magazine

September 9th, 2010

Great CD review in issue #270 and Oceansize enter the Mania charts on Sept. 8 on #16

“Meesters van de stemmigheid, dit Oceansize. Al vanaf het debuutalbum Effloresce weet de band een donkere, maar prettige sfeer over te brengen. Op dit album is dat niet anders, maar dat betekent niet dat de band op herhaling gaat. In tegendeel zelfs. De muziek is zowaar nog wat donkerder. Het houdt het midden tussen een zware rockplaat en een stemmig metal album. Leidend zijn de uitgesponnen gitaarlijnen en de gevarieerde zang van frontman Mike Vennart. Voor de band zijn doen zijn de nummers aan de korte kant. Toch weten de heren telkens hun verhaal te houden. En dat doen ze onder andere met logge riffs (Part Cardiac), zoete gelaagdheid (Oscar Acceptance Speech) en ruimtelijk gitaarwerk (Ransoms). Een mooie plaat om bij in gedachten weg te voeren.”
