{"product_id":"oceansize-self-preserved-while-the-bodies-float-up","title":"Oceansize - Self Preserved While The Bodies Float Up","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally released in 2010, 'Self Preserved While The Bodies Float Up' marked both a culmination \u0026amp; a parting shot - the fourth \u0026amp; final full- length from Oceansize, a band widely regarded as one of the most innovative \u0026amp; uncompromising acts in modern British rock. Now, this new 2CD edition casts fresh light on the landmark album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainstakingly remastered by Frank Arkwright (INXS\/Cardiacs\/Shed Seven) at Abbey Road \u0026amp; presented across the two discs, this edition includes around 30 minutes of previously unheard material - six bonus tracks, three of which feature newly recorded vocals by Mike Vennart, offering a rare glimpse into alternate futures that never came to pass. Far from studio offcuts, these are fully- formed works, some of which now sound eerily prophetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelf- produced \u0026amp; fiercely unfiltered, 'Self Preserved...' was Oceansize at their most direct. From the lurching menace of \"Build Us A Rocket Then...\" to the ethereal drift of \"Pine,\" the album pushes extremes in both aggression \u0026amp; atmosphere. Alongside core members Mike Vennart, Gambler, Steve Durose, Mark Heron \u0026amp; Steve Hodson, the record features guest vocals from Simon Neil (Biffy Clyro) \u0026amp; the haunting presence of Claire Lemmon (Sidi Bou Said, ex-Cardiacs).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough Oceansize disbanded shortly after its release, their influence has only grown. Praised for their commitment to artistic evolution, the band quietly redefined the post-rock \u0026amp; prog lexicon for a generation. 'Self Preserved While the Bodies Float Up' stands as a final, formidable statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2CD edition of 'Self Preserved While The Bodies Float Up' is presented in a 6-panel digipack \u0026amp; includes newly remastered audio \u0026amp; six bonus tracks, three of which with newly recorded vocals by Mike Vennart, as well as a new essay by Remfry Dedman (The Guardian, Metal Hammer).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KSCOPE","offers":[{"title":"2CD Remastered","offer_id":58484102594904,"sku":"TKM-44416","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/truckmusic.store\/products\/oceansize-self-preserved-while-the-bodies-float-up","provider":"Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
