Rocktopia: Oceansize - 'Self Preserved While Bodies Flow Up' - CD Review

A Fireworks Magazine / Rocktopia album review by Phil Ashcroft: In the past I've really wanted to like Oceansize, but apart from the promising debut album 'Effloresce' their next couple of releases left me frustrated that they never seemed to want to go in the heavier direction I thought worked best for them. With too many nods toward indie rock the Manchester quintet were trying to be all things to all men and sadly scattered their sound around so many different genres that the most anyone could get from them was a great two or three tracks. http://ping.fm/HzV74
