they go. For all the bad luck that the band has persevered through,
plenty of good has happened along the way. They were recently featured
in the Washington Post Express, who deemed their massive heaviness "as
disturbing as a tsunami" and in Revolver, who gave their April 7th
debut, DEPTHS a 3.5 out of 5 after calling it "unsparing in its
attack." They've also made a strong showing on the Sirius XM Liquid
Metal charts, having been ranked at number 15 for the last few weeks
with plenty of room to grow.
Another major positive happened today when the band was informed that
they were the number 1 "unsigned" death metal band on all of MySpace.
Not only that, but OCEANO charted at number 5 on the hardcore charts
and number 12 on the metal charts.
As a band who's successes have been made possible with the support of
their devoted MySpace following, this was a very sweet moment for the
them. So much so that guitarist Andrew Mikhail had this to say to all
of the band's friends on the site: "Thank you guys for your support,
small stuff like this means a lot! We realize we're signed, i dont
know why it says were unsigned but still awesome! Now lets show the
world how we all do it!"

OCEANO has unveiled a brand new track from their forthcoming debut
release,
DEPTHS on their MySpace page. "A Mandatory Sacrifice" is a savagely-
growled number that takes you by the throat until the last bit of
riffage hacks and slashes its way through your guttural core. Listen
to this and 2 other songs from OCEANO's April 7th release, DEPTHS on
their official MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/xoceano
