Progressive metal band The Ocean are currently in the process of mixing their upcoming album, Anthropocentric, at Studio Mecanique in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
The album will be mastered on August 25th by Svante Forsbäck in Helsinki.
The band has stated that the album sounds heavier than their previous release, Heliocentric. "The sound is more dense and maybe a tad more raw, which suits the songs perfectly, " guitar player Jonathan Nido explains.
Only 6 guest musicians are appearing on the album, all classical musicians, most of whom are guesting on the final track of the album.
The track listing for Anthropocentric is as follows:
01. Anthropocentric
02. The Grand Inquisitor I: Karamazov baseness
