Yawn…..i think i got lost in all the pretentiousness of it all.

Do not understand why everyone hates on this band. They make some HEAVY kickass music
Jake
I didn’t understand it either. then i hung out with a pestilence fan and noticed that he only drank A&W root beer and eat microwaved dinners.
it actually explains a lot.

Absolutely no fucking clue. Excellent songwriting, great pacing, and lyrics that are actually thoughtful. Also, a song about evolution that is for the most part scientifically accurate to boot! Heliocentric/Anthropocentric are my favorite albums of this year easy.
Strapping Young Lad
people hate this band??!

I for one feel absolutely indebted to MS for showing me this band. Between this, Horseback and Intronaut, my ever growing love of post-metal has been nurtured and cultivated wonderfully by this site.

I think someone’s got a hard-on for The Ocean. What about the new album? Should’ve included atleast one song from it I think.

“lol religion sucks so rebellious lol.” at least precambian’s good.

They do a more in-depth and thought out critique than that. You make it sound like they’re a bunch of 15 year old kids going out of their way to piss off old ladies.

Heliocentric is garbage. Why do people like this band? They are so Pretentious. Just because they based their shit on a classic book doesn’t make them smart and heliocentric was boring as shit.

You know them personally and can say they’re actually pretentious, i’m sure. The word pretentious is a piss poor adjective for music anyways. You could always simply say “I don’t like it” instead of making an ass out of yourself.

I don’t see how The Ocean are pretentious. Sure, they write songs about scientific and philosophical things, but they hardly come off as pretentious.

Pretentious???? um…actually they’re probably just smarter than you

from my cursory listen it didn’t sound very innovative. they are probably decent, but nothing special.

The new word of the month is obviously “Pretentious”.
