After releasing their latest EP, Hell Is Where The Heart Is - Part I: Love, in January of this year, rising German/Austrian nu-metal stars, Oceans, recently announced the second part of this masterpiece - the digital EP entitled Hell Is Where The Heart Is - Part II: Longing, that will be released via Nuclear Blast on July 29.
Today, they are unleashing the second single off this EP, a dark and emotional hymn titled "I Want To Be Whole Again". Get the single digitally, here, and find a track video below.
Timo Rotten comments: "This song was written in the midst of the pandemic at a low point in our lives. We had just lost one of the most important foundations of our sanity: playing live music. That was what had kept us sane all these years, and suddenly it was gone. There's a lot of longing and pain in 'I Want To Be Whole Again', and I'm sure you can hear that clearly.”
The band previously released a music video for their single, "Home". Watch the clip below, and get the single digitally here.
Timo Rotten commented “'Home' is so much more than just the place where we come from. It’s love, friends, acceptance - it’s peace. I’ve been searching for this place, this feeling of accomplishment all my life and to be honest, I’m not sure I’ve found it yet. But what I do know is, that ‘HOME’ portrays pretty damn well how it feels to search for it.”
