Better than Psychostick.

Racist.

Oh, about the band. Although far from good, i’ve heard worse. I’d give it a 5/10.

I really don’t completely hate that.I have heard far worse music get praised for being great on this site.

At least they aren’t anorexic

This stuff is godlike compared to BrokenCyde “cringes”

Not horrible, just… been there done that.

They are a fucking gods compared to the screamo crunk movement that I really wish would die. I give them a 5 out of 10 not the worst thing I have ever heard like hollywood undead

@ metalguy

or maybe they just had a friend who had pretty good deathcore vocals, who happened to be black. It’s not like they just went to the African Depot to pick out a fitting black person to progress their fame, idiot.

Dr J for some reason your last comment was absolutely hilarious to me, well done

@metalguy – Way to follow up calling me a douche with an equally douche comment…and I didn’t figure nobody would notice. I figured somebody would notice and call me a douche or something related to being insensitive with a grown man’s struggle with his lack of self control who makes the excuse of “controlling” his bad habit to exert control.

The only thing I have to say is at least he’s only hurting himself and not “exerting control over his life” in ways that affect functioning people who cope with life like they should.

Eating disorders…give me a break. There are people starving in the world who would beg for a reason to have an eating “disorder”.

P.S. Though this band doesn’t do anything special they do what they are trying to do well and I think they are a good listen…far better than that garbage Iwrestledabearonce.

why even bother posting this shit? this is fucking awful. bands like these give metal a band name.

I can’t watch this because MTV doesn’t let people in my “region” (i.e. NOT the USA) watch it. Who is the band? And is it funny enough to be worth my time to look up on youtube?

Looks like everyone except the drummer is taking a shit standing up.

I’m not the biggest deathcore fan around but would much rather listen to this than anything from Suicide Silence or Whitechapel…

blows hard

arse!

@everyone

i would like to apologive for the rascist comments made before, they were only said under the influence of weed. and iknow your gunna say thats a bullshit excuse, but thats the truth and if you dont believe me fuk you

douche stop giving stoners bad names. you are an idiot and possibly a racist not weeds fault

More like oceaNO

And whoever is using drugs as an excuse for being racist, you’re a faggot, get bent.

Also, “Apologiving” doesn’t count, unless you are referring to some sorta deep space scuba thing we’ve never heard of…

I did think Whitechapel could get any worse. It’s just plain boring deathcore in my opinion. I thoroughly believe in supporting bands from Chicago, even if its a little bit, but I can’t do this with Oceano.

Ya know, you guys sit at your computers just trash talking a guy I went to middle school and high school with. I grew up with Adam, and go ahead and make all the jokes you want (cause you’ll probably call us faggots or what not since that seems to be the homo-erotic thing you guys do/ must be some sub-conscious stuff going on there), but the bottom line is, they must have been good enough to be signed to EARACHE records, and they’re living a dream that half of you can’t accomplish. You can say you like them or not, or give them constructive criticism, but to trash talk them? They sound better then about 90% of the bands out there today. Props to them, and they kicked ass with Vital Remains. Tony and the rest of Vital only stood up and watched Oceano at the Doug’s Rock House show I went to. To get Tony from Vital Remains to stand up and ONLY watch your band must mean something. Keep it metal Oceano!

I didn’t know Seal had a side project. Man, that cat has some range. Was that racist?

These guys are definitely on the generic side, but pretty tolerable. It gets a lot worse than this, methinks.

Sounds better than 90% of stuff out there? Fuck no. I’m doing shit tmost people couldn’t do – structural engineering. Sure as fuck doesn’t make me special, and them making shitty music and getting signed to a label with hardly any good bands (Clutch, Napalm Death, and Vader were the only ones I saw worth half a fuck) doesn’t mean a goddamned thing.

You went to high school with them, great. They could be the nicest fucking people in the world, but that doesn’t change the fact that their music fucking sucks goat asshole.

This isn’t fucking “music”. It’s generic-ass riffs coupled with borderline-retarded pigfuck vocals.

To everyone out their who has something bad to say about this band. What have you done with your lives. I have known Adam for a while and he is a good dude and a good singer. And he made something of yourselves unlike you people who sit on your computers all day bitching cause you don’t like the music. Here’s an idea…DON’T LISTEN TO IT!!!! But I don’t see you playing with Vital Remains or Suffocation. And I certaintly don’t see you signed to the same label as At The Gates. So instead of bitching about how you believe this music sucks let the people who like it enjoy it and discuss it and get a life. OCEANO keeping it metal.

New Chimaira is so close I can fucking taste it. By the way if you want to hear Whitechapel’s wanna be brother, Get the new Impending Doom. They blatently took “This is Exile” and copied every thing about it.

I only like two “deathcore” bands: Suicide Silence and All Shall Perish.

This band is why. The rest sound so boring and computerized.
This guys “higher pitched” vocals sound like Howard Jones on that promo video they put out where him and Adam described the songs and then made noises.

Not only could he kill us, he could feed our hearts to Lennox Lewis and eat our children too

The music is deathcore in the Whitechapel sense, not done too shabbily but not anything that says “give me a third spin in your car”, so probably five or six out of ten, at least I could sit through and entire listening(which like some of the people above said is more than I can say for a lot of the “amazing” bands hyped on this site). The problem with this video is definitely the clothing and the lifeless pose the band stays in during the entire thing. It’s a video for gods sake, you try to promote yourself throught this, make people interested. Well, if you like Whitchapelish deathcore you’ll like this.

BTW, a lot of friends and family or whatever like to come here and spill their guts all over people who bash the MUSIC of the band. The truth is being a nice guy has nothing to do with the music you make, I mean I tell a my friends their band aint that great or their new song sounds like freaking ripoffs a lot. So what? I’m not bashing them, I’m saying I’m not a big fan of their music. It’s two completely different issues. And stop using the “they got signed youre just faggots on the web” argument. If you want to see everything in this perspective, you can never say a movie sucks, a professional sports player sucks, the food at this place is shit blah blah blah. I don’t see any of the critics making like 20 million a year playing basketball or making a movie.

Still looks like these guys have fucking mudbutt while playing over-monotonous generic and probably gimmicky deathcore.

HEY SHOW THEM THE BATHROOM, THEY NEED TO TAKE AN EMERGENCY WIDELOAD!!!!!!!!!!

Also being friends with a dude of a band doesn’t make you special. I have a friend who makes boring melodic deathcore and I hate it.

@ Eric – I too was expecting the cheezy singing chorus to come out of nowhere and was real fuckin relieved when it didnt

boring…pretty sure they could get away with using 3 string guitars and a 1 string bass.

Fuck AC/DC and their three songs? How bout fuck every death metal, metalcore, and deathcore band and their two songs. Bon, Angus, and Malcolm are the greatest songwriters of all time compared to most metal musicians.

The song Night Prowler by AC/DC will kick the ass of any metal song ever made. It’s the heaviest, darkest, scariest, and most intense song ever made and any metal band trying to reproduce something of that chilling quality should quit. Night Prowler is heavier than heavy metal.

@Eirik: i think you’ll find the whole drum kit isn’t ezdrummer at all. they drums were recorded and sampled replaced with slate samples.

the producer who did that album posts on sneap forum, and posted afew tracks up. look him up, hes called “Joeymusicguy”

http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/search.php?searchid=1151194

Since when does everything have to be as complicated as Mastodon!! ( No hatred Mastodon fucking rule. )

First time i heard this and it’s fucking cool.

Stop all your moaning and enjoy THE METAL in every shape and form.

And how any metal fan can hate AC/DC is beyond me!!

They sound exactly like all the other 700 shitty Death and Black Metal bands out there. I can’t tell one apart from the other with the shitty Cookie Monster vocals.

fake ass howard jones not very good but hey “mtv” put em on so they must be good right

“fake ass howard jones ”

The only thing this dude has in common with Jones is that they’re both black. It’s not like every black metal singer is trying to be, or ripoff Howard Jones (who isn’t all that special himself)…give me a break.

Just to a lame argument to bed, the best black vocalist in a heavy act EVER is Carley Coma from CANDIRIA. Brooklyn stand up.

Big Boi-eeee!!!

This band is boring. As a black guy who performs as a metal vocalist and lives in the Chicagoland area, this guy is a disappointment. His vocals are bland and indecipherable. Not “if only I had the lyrics I would be able to understand him” indecipherable. He’s like “Even if I had the lyrics under a microscope and slowed the track down, I wouldn’t know what the hell he was saying.”. Which is just a sign of how half-assed people can be about EVERYTHING musical these days.

The musical composition is contrived and doesn’t bother to show any reason WHY we should pay any attention to them. Everything they play is by the book generic deathcore, which goes to show you how good the book is. According to someone in the comments section, we should respect them because they got signed to Earache. Which is bullshit, because Earache, as well as numerous other labels past and present, have signed shitty bands before. This is nothing new and will never change. Where you get signed does not determine how good your band is. It’s all horribly uninspired, all of it.

Another thing that I’ve got a problem with, is with dude. C’mon, what’s the deal with the “I gotta shit” headbanging at 2:51 and the weird, stiff movements earlier on in the video? I mean, its like you were demonstrating how to rape someone and subsequently plop a Cleveland Steamer on your unwitting victim. I mean, I know how easy it is to not noticed when you’re looking stupid, but…c’mon, dude!

Why did you guys have to claim you’re from Chicago!? Why not Indiana or something! Give some other town a bad name!

Better than most of the bands espoused by the writers of this site.

is that whitechapel?

@\m/Eluveitie\m/

“The song Night Prowler by AC/DC will kick the ass of any metal song ever made”

are you fucking serious?
………………..
whatever…. point taken on the /core bands. but any metal song ever made. I cant ever agree with that. I mean its cool if you like ac/dc, personally I think they fucking suck, but to each his own, but that comment seems irrational to me.

Sometimes predictable is fun, and as long as a band understands that their music isn’t about impressing virtuoso musicians and their (self described) virtuoso fans, there’s no problem.

I play drums myself in a metal/deathcore band, not because I’m trying to solidify my spot as best drummer in CT, or impress anybody, or write needlessly complicated music…I just want to play music that is fun, that hits hard, and that gets people energized.

If sounding like another band were a crime then 90% of bands (good and bad) that were out there wouldn’t be in existence. Its just adding your own twist to something that is already there. The majority of bands from the 80′s, including shitty AC/DC, all sound the same too, save that AC/DC’s singer sounds like he just got punched in the nuts AND the throat.

I’m not saying Oceano are gods of metal, but its solid enough to grab the interest of enough people…though those people may not be the large amount of washed up 80′s metalheads that post on this site.

@COSK!

Yeah I am serious, find me a metal song that made someone kill 14 people

Super boring, bog-standard deathcore. It’s executed ok, but the whole thing is one big breakdown.

THIS BAND KICKS ASS its just unlucky for them they came in so late in the game. They are good at what they do not everybody can be a Trendsetter some people have to follow and ADD to the Genre. ID REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOU GUYS DO A MORE BRUTAL JOB THEN THESE GUYS!!!!!!
