Isis - Oceanic

The defining Isis album, now that it's all said and done, Oceanic finally returns to vinyl after being out of print for years. Showcasing a band at the height of a monumental transition, Oceanic is hailed by fans as the band s landmark album and has earned widespread critical acclaim (even being dubbed seminal by Drowned in Sound). Raising the massive bridge between crushing metal and atmospheric post-rock, Isis truly came into their own on their brilliant sophomore album. This stunning double-LP comes housed in a heavyweight tip-on gatefold jacket and has been carefully re-mastered and re-cut for optimal sound quality. Isis is one of the few heavy metal bands recording without regard for convention, and [...] few have succeeded in such breathtaking fashion. Chris Ott, Pitchfork (9.1 rating)
