  The Ocean Debut “Pelagial World Tour” Video Blog Part 1

The Ocean have posted a brand new tour documentary from their 2013 Pelagial World Tour over on their youtube channel. With quality similar to their recently released “Collective Oblivion” triple DVD, this documentary follows the band through The Summer Slaughter Tour, Mexico, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, and Russia. It’s truly an in depth look into what it’s like to tour on a worldwide scale as an underground metal band; and it’s only the first of two parts! View part one now at youtube.com/theoceancollective.

The Ocean, will be returning to North America this spring for the first time since last year’s The Summer Slaughter Tour. In just over a month, their co-headline tour with Prosthetic Recording artist Scale the Summit begins. The tour also includes special guests The Atlas MothandSilver Snakes, and is beingpresented by Metal Sucks. The tour kicks off on Wednesday, March 5 in Seattle Washington and wraps up on Sunday, March 30 in Cambridge Mass., including two dates scheduled in Austin, TX for SXSW.

The Ocean will notice a change in the lineup from the last time around, as they’ve added drummer Paul Seidel, and guitarist Damian Murdoch to replace Luc Hess and Jona Nido, who departed the band on mutual terms late last year. Live videos have been made available from The Summer Slaughter Tour stop at the Rave in Milwaukee, WI. Fans can watch “Demersal: Cognitive Dissonance” (featuring guest vocals from CJ of Thy Art is Murder) HERE.
