celebdeath Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 available NOW at www.conspiracyrecords.com ISIS Oceanic Trust No One TNO18 FORMAT(S): 2XLP (BLACK) €13.50 2XLP (WHITE) €13.50 CD €13.00 With the pale seasons at hand, fall and winter 2001 commenced a brief hibernation period during which most of the music that would become "Oceanic" was written. Whereas "Celestial" was the culmination of past efforts, a full realization of ISIS' collective talents, "Oceanic" is the re-envisioning of that ideal, striking a balance between gravity and complexity, achieving a dynamic equilibrium through the sharpening and honing of harmonic elements. Featuring texturally enhancing guest performances from Ayal Noar and Maria Christopher of 27, "Oceanic" is clarity through understatement; total conceptual and atmospheric control via the harnessing of hydraulic and instrumental inspiration. Paring back the density of previous releases to reveal a more articulated melodic infrastructure, "Oceanic" is highly meditative and perceptually abstract, vaguely hallucinatory and eminently contemplative. It is a striking testament to ISIS' ongoing evolution. This is a repress: 600 copies, 400 on black 200 on white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I think with the shitty exchange rate, a lot of people in the U.S. are hesitant on getting it. I know I am. What I'm wondering though it why repress it on white again. The 3rd press that Escape Artist did is white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
