The Ocean have resurfaced with what could be their deepest and most trailblazing piece of work to date, Pelagial: a progressive musical journey, written, recorded, mixed and to-be-performed-live as one single 53-minutes piece of music. Mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Katatonia, Witchcraft). Starting with a clean, produced"surface"-sound and progressing towards a more open, ambient, distorted and abrasive sound for the doomydepth-passages at the end of the album. Originally conceptualized as an instrumental album, Pelagial now comes in 2 different versions that will bereleased together: with vocals and instrumental. On vinyl, they are being released separately, each as a 2x10" in separate gatefold packaging, with related artwork by Seldon Hunt. This is the vocal version.
