San Diego-based post-hardcore band Being As An Ocean will be releasing on October 23rd its first full-length album 'Dear G-d' on InVogue Records, which will be available in a limited edition double 12" vinyl. They introduced this debut with its title track, a powerful crossover between metal's clean melodic guitars and the guttural screams of the brutal trash/hardcore tradition; the preview shows off a taste for spoken word breakdowns and the vital tension of the band's aesthetic, a beautiful contrast of soft and violent appealing to a larger audience, seeing the considerable fan base they've already established in the US and beyond. They'll be on stage at San Diego's Soma tomorrow evening (8.11) with local bands My Iron Lung and Keyes.
