Oceans Ate Alaska: Disparity (LP)

Balance requires duality. As such, Oceans Ate Alaska thrive amid extremes. The British quintet - James Harrison (vocals), Chris Turner (drums), James "Jibs" Kennedy (guitar), Adam Zytkiewicz (guitar) and Mike Stanton (bass) - vacillate between moments of elite metallic intensity, skillful progressive experimentation and delicate lo-fi bliss. They dynamically dive deep and surface with a completely unpredictable and undeniable style that overturns expectations at every turn. After several million streams and much praise from Alternative Press, New Noise Magazine and others, the group perfects this balance on their third album "Disparity".
