about

The album, in essence, is about time. Not clockwork time. Universal, cyclical time. We've grown up with a belief system that has repeatedly told us that things that have happened will happen yet again, and again, and again.
Time is seen as a continuum, and there are more universes than just this one. These are subjects we’ve debated and discussed from time immemorial. From the ancients, right down to us, this is how time is experienced where we come from. So naturally, when we started discussing lyrical concepts, time is something that all subjects were ultimately pointing toward. We were acting from an awareness that in this grand circuit of the cosmos, the self is constantly recreated in every moment. It’s not just about time, it’s also about a very personal experience of that time, through the aeons as life itself. It ultimately boils down to how time chisels to perfection the one universal soul that finds itself echoed in every living being.
For reasons not entirely known to us, it felt as though time channeled itself through us for the creation of this album. We were merely conduits in this process.

Great album! Can’t set a favourite track because it’s first and foremost the totality of the album that makes it so hefty. jkaronen

Very dark and melancholic and also a progressive album. Beat and atmosphere remind me strongly of TOOL. Stephan

Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic
by The Ocean

supported by 4 fans who also own “Of The Lotus & The Thunderbolt”

J'admire les groupes capables de suivre une feuille de route déterminée (et encore plus de s'y tenir) : Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic aura droit à un successeur qui sortira dans deux ans — un délai qui paraît généreux. De l'autre côté, créer quelque chose d'aussi extraordinaire que ce premier volet en aussi peu de temps, c'est surhumain. Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic est sombre et cataclysmique, The Ocean revient sur un post-metal oppressant sans être dénué de grâce. The Ocean offre toujours plus ! Jordan Vauvert
