Oceans release new song ‘Voices’

March 20, 2021 James Weaver

OCEANS have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Voices, is taken from the band’s upcoming new EP, We Are Nøt Okay, which is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Nuclear Blast Records. The new song features a guest appearance from Lena Scissorhands from INFECTED RAIN.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Timo Rotten says, “this song is fragile and violent. It displays self love and self hatred at the same time. We tried to capture a particular state of mind with Voices, it’s basically our own interpretation of paranoid schizophrenia. OCEANS has always been about contrast, because most things in our world do have multiple sides to it, especially with mental health everything is multi-layered. Normally, I try to transport that with my use of growls and clean singing, but Lena‘s vocals put the whole thing on a whole different level. The sheer amount of emotion in this track makes me shiver every time I listen to it.”

Lena Scissorhands adds, “being part of the song Voices was an easy decision for me. I loved the lyrics and the music right away. The message is raw and very relevant to the current society we live in.”

The four different songs on the EP all deal with all aspects of mental illness. Each track will feature a special guest and the band are cooperating with The Ocean In Your Mind, A German NPO. Raphael Funck, Founder of The Ocean In Your Mind e.V. adds, “we dream of a world, in which people can freely show their vulnerability. We are giving hope a voice and are fighting together against suicide and for mental health.”
