Most Anticipated: The Stills – Oceans Will Rise

August 03, 2008 ( Comments ) - Written by: Jason Debiak

2003’s Logic Will Break Your Heart was great. 2006’s Without Feathers was boring. So now why would The Stills‘ newest record, Oceans Will Rise, be one of our most anticipated releases of 2008? Because any smart band would follow up a lackluster effort with ambition and a reinvented sense of who hey are (and who you want to think they are). A 30 second clip of their lead single, “Being Here”, has more raw energy in it than every track on Without Feathers combined. Looking at a release on August 19th, Oceans Will Rise will rise could potentially be the one record this Summer that finally stands out, so don’t forget to put down that frozen margarita and pick it up!

  • Indeed I have listened to it. I liked i, but I will have to admit though that it lost it's impact on me rather quickly and I was happy that the band was able to easily (without kicking) rope me back in.

    amazing illustrations on your site btw
  • I am pretty impressed with the dynamics on this new album so far, and I haven't even given it the headphones yet. It seems like a great marrying of both past collections, and a step forward.

    Question for the author of this blurb: Did you even listen to Without Feathers? You missed a great album, sorry for you.

    I will say that, having gotten this record leaked a few weeks ago and having let it seep in, I am fucking in, really very hard and very much so. It is earth shaking beauty and tremendous and calming and with class. It reveals its layers like Salome's Dance in Tom Robbins' 'Skinny Legs And All'.
