OCEANS OF SLUMBER defies all conventional laws. Since 2011, the American band has redefined Southern Gothic style by spreading its tales filled with hope and despair against a backdrop of melodic death, doom, and black metal, combined with a subtle mix of electronic flourishes and classical compositions. 'Where Gods Fear To Speak' defines its progressive vision of the Hollywood blockbuster in high definition. OCEANS OF SLUMBER has toured with Swallow The Sun and Ne Obliviscaris, but this sixth album has more in common with Blade Runner and The Book of Eli. Of course, no film would be complete without an eloquent soundtrack. "Poem of Ecstasy" oscillates between a moonlit piano ballad, Southern country, doom-tinged power metal, and dystopian grindcore. Playing such a radical piece in the extreme metal scene requires a cast of talented actors. Everyone knows Dobber Beverly, drummer of the legendary Insect Warfare, but he himself bows to the lead actress of OCEANS OF SLUMBER: Cammie Beverly's clean vocals stand against the blast beats like a force field. But today, the singer reveals a new asset: death metal growls. On 'Where Gods Fear To Speak', OCEANS OF SLUMBER reinvents progressive metal with its own melancholic and cinematic vision.
