We welcome Timo Rotten, the frontman of Oceans, a rising heavy metal outfit from Germany. Their 2nd album, “Hell Is Where The Heart Is,” has raised the bar for not only themselves, but also for the metalcore genre. We talk to Timo about the origins of the band and the well-deserved breakthrough in their most recent years, which did not come without its challenges. Timo discusses releasing a debut album right before the pandemic, and the thought process of taking the creativity to the next level with a follow up which is quite the strong effort,.“Hell Is Where The Heart Is” follows a unique timeline of a release schedule that was split into three separate EPs, keeping the listeners on their feet as the year progresses. This served a huge advantage as Oceans continued to rack up the stream numbers and a growing fanbase who are eager for more material. Timo also talks about the band’s sound, which incorporates a blend of nu-metal, post, progressive, and death metal. Even though the band is still fresh into the scene, “Hell Is Where The Heart Is” showcases impressive strengths and song structures on how solid their true sound really is. Tune in now to this episode with a dedicated and passionate artist in Timo Rotten, and be sure to buy and stream the new album from Oceans, out now worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records.
