Subject: ocean/conifer split 12" vinyl release Posted by: skinny fists blah blah on May 1,2007 2:29pm | Ocean/Conifer split LP
Written by Important Records
Tuesday, 27 March 2007
artist: OCEAN/CONIFER
title: split
catalog #: IMPREC144
upc: 793447513621
release date: APRIL 24, 2007
format: LP
This split 12” release is limited to 1000 copies and pressed on rust and grey color vinyl. It is packaged in a screen printed mylar jacket with a screen printed mylar insert & printed paper insert. Cover artwork is of a 19th century statue located at the center of Portland Maine, the dramatic coastal home of both groups. This is the sound of a musical brotherhood entirely unique to Ocean & Conifer.
Over the years the two bands have shared vans, stages, members, practice spaces, apartments, beers, a city and a kindred musical spirit. In a lot of ways it's a shock that that split hasn't happened already but perhaps it was so obvious that nobody noticed that it needed to happen. Sometimes the truth is right beneath your nose.
With their original drummer back in the line-up, since Eric Brackett left to focus his energy on Ocean, Conifer has re-enlisted drummer Nate Nadeau. With Nate back in the group they're heavier, tighter and more united than ever before. They've toured or played with Mono, Black Dice, High On Fire, Asva, Mouth Of The Architect, Playing Enemy, Akimbo and many more. Summer of 2006 saw them embark on an ambitious 26 city tour.
Ocean's 20 minute epic was recorded in the same sessions that birthed their next album, currently untitled, for Important, containing all of the epic minimalist intensity and robust heaviness that has gained them international attention.
