Chicago based Oceans have released their debut full length album, Nothing Collapses on Copper Lung Records (Portland, OR).  Go here to grab  your copy for only $6! I’ve heard it, and it’s well worth a measly $6.

Oceans’ debut is a sprawling masterpiece that flexes a magnificent scope. After two self-released demos, the Chicago instrumental juggernaut has thrown down a massive gauntlet with an enthralling and monumental piece of post rock. Filtered through the influences of Midwestern indie / emo and indebted to DIY / punk rock values, Oceans are playing instrumental music with a deliberate, yet dynamic purpose. Most importantly, Nothing Collapses fuels an unmistakable heart and soul that takes your breath away, reminding you of why you fell in love with instrumental music in the first place. Sometimes it takes a band like Ocenas to come along and make other bands look themselves in the mirror. Nothing Collapses simply sets the bar higher. [Bear Trappr PR]
