Лейблы Ipecac Recordings. Obviously Oceanic is not an album for everyone, the overuse of the climax and general minimalist and repetitive song structures might begin to wear thin on some listeners out there. After all, this is an album that strives for atmospheric progression above all else. The music on Oceanic is very calm and soothing, and even when it picks up a bit as is the case with the surging climax on The Beginning and the End it’s still remains relatively calm, never outwardly aggressive.

More than anything, the album demonstrates Isis' sense of discovery: underneath every crisp chord, every growl, every bit of convoluted storyline there something waiting to be unearthed. This not only makes Oceanic a fascinating listen, but also gives it a nearly infinite amount of replay value-something one wouldn't expect after the "novelty" of Isis' unique approach to metal wears off. This is a complex and absorbing masterpiece, one that should be met with wide-open eyes by anyone who also has an open mind.

Oceanic is ISIS' first true post-metal album. While the first ISIS albums tended to borrow quite a bit from the old Neurosis sound, this album tends to break away from the traditional ISIS sound, and tends to lean towards long, emotional songs. When ISIS made this album and broke away from their traditional sound, they seemed to keep the slower tempo that they found to be successful. The whole album uses ambience to progress the album like one long song. Each song builds on the previous song, until we reach the finale, which, just as ISIS has always done, sums up the whole album, while still leaving a pleasant taste in the audiences mouth.
