3.1 good | Erwann S. STAFF | May 22nd 23 | The Holocene being the current geological epoch, it's no wonder The Ocean conjure more modern matters both lyrically and musically (the synths babyyy). It's not always a winner tho: heavy passages do not carry the same force as the band has accustomed us to, and some tunes do not get the climax they spend so much time building (especially those first three tracks). When they let melodeez rise up ("Atlantic", "Uncomfirmities"), the band fully leverage their new aesthetic, but these moments are ultimately quite rare.

2.0 poor | ajcollins15 | May 25th 23 | Never quite understood the hype of the German mega progressive metal band and that continues on their newest album. Everything about their music has always felt like a very dry and safe style of classic progressive metal music that has been dead for many years. Nothing about their new album stands out above anything else the band has put out, and they really have a hard time standing out from any of the juggernauts of the 90s and 2000s progressive metal.
