Feb 4 2010, 5:02 PM
Experimental, doom, extreme mavericks The Ocean are going to be hitting the world not with one album but two this year. The band is known for their in depth idealism as well as music and these two offerings will be no different. The albums critique and examine Christianity from different personal and philosophical points.
The first release "Heliocentric" tells the story of the rise of the heliocentric world view and its effects on Christian belief from medieval times to Darwin and Dawkins. The second "Anthropocentric" challenges the views of creationists and other modern fundamentalists who still believe that the earth is at the center of the universe.
Heliocentric features The Ocean's new vocalist Loic Rosetti and will be the more experimental, diverse and epic album of the two. Anthropocentric will be a more straight forward rock album. The Ocean released artwork and a track listing for Heliocentric:
1. Shamayim
2. Firmament
3. The First Commandment of the Luminaries
4. Ptolemy Was Wrong
5. Metaphysics of the Hangman
6. Catharsis of a Heretic
7. Swallowed by the Earth
8. Epiphany
9. The Origin of Species
10. The Origin of God
Heliocentric hits stores in April while Anthropocentric will be released in October.
