From Oceans to Autumn Announce Ether / Return to Earth 2CD Due in 2017
Most recently heard from with late-2014’s Advent studio sessions recording, which was released digitally just days after it was completed, North Carolina post-rockers From Oceans to Autumn have announced that their second official full-length, titled Ether / Return to Earth, will be out in 2017 on Argonauta Records. It’s a double-CD, so presumably one is Ether and the other is Return to Earth, and while we’re speculating, it doesn’t seem unlikely either that the titles perhaps give some clue as to the sounds contained in each of the album’s two parts — as in, maybe the second is where From Oceans to Autumn come across more grounded sonically than the first. Just guessing here, folks. Just guessing.
No word on a definite, nailed-down release date yet, but Argonauta had the following pretty picture and verbiage on the subject, and if you wanted to check out Advent, it’s name-your-price from the Bandcamp player at the bottom of the post:
FROM OCEANS TO AUTUMN, new “double album” to be released in 2017!
North Carolina based outfit FROM OCEANS TO AUTUMN return after their last album “A Perfect Dawn” of 2013 and several digital EPs released in 2014/2015.
Being a perfect blend of Post Rock / Ambient and Instrumental Post Metal sonorities, this will be a massive effort by the band, a stunning double album where huge landscapes typical of a band as JAKOB meets the impressive “wall of sound” of ROSETTA.
From Oceans to Autumn’s Brandon Helms (also in MAGI and MOUNTAINS AMONG US) says: “Writing and recording of this double album has been going on for 2 years off and on. Mainly in the fall months. We wanted something a little different, yet was still us at heart. The songs are more airy, with the guitars seemingly drift in and out of consciousness.”
“Ether/Return to Earth” is a sound experience where ethereal and dreamlike atmosphere of the first part is in opposition to the darker and “otherworldly” feel of the second one.
FROM OCEANS TO AUTUMN come-back has been scheduled in 2017 and will be released as 2CD/DD by ARGONAUTA Records.
