From Oceans To Autumn

這支樂團的身上其實并無非常明顯的特征，他們的風格也無法貼上某種特定的標簽。在我聽來這支樂團的作品是游走于Post Rock和Post Metal之間的，而又帶著非常強烈的氛圍色彩。如果要從風格上分析的話，我一時也說不上來哪里吸引到了我，也許徘徊與理性與黑暗界限里的情感色彩才是他們最迷人的地方吧。推薦他們的一張正式作品與一張Split給大家，這張Split是與另一支叫Fire On The Horizon樂團合作完成的。其實兩支團都算得上很低調(diào)的地下樂團，他們的作品幾乎都是通過網(wǎng)絡廠牌而發(fā)行的，這也幾乎成了大部分地下樂團被人了解的一種主要途徑。另外值得一提的是，這支樂團的作品都非常的長，正式專輯的時長是53分鐘，而Split則達到了71分鐘，真是變態(tài)之極。這種長度的專輯聽起來恐怕需要不少的耐性，但我相信只要大家細細品味其中必定有能讓你們驚喜的地方。
Brandon Helms (guitars, samples) and Robert Knight (bass) founded From Oceans to Autumn in the summer of 2006 — shortly after laying to rest their previous band, Autumn Is Forever, which had a long, if nondescript run between 1997 and 2004. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, the pair proceeded to recruit Jay Fields (drums) and Chris Hiate (keyboards, samples) in order to record their debut full-length, Calmed by the Tide, which was released by Forgotten Empire Records in 2007, and showcased a broad range of instrumental post-metal and drone rock influences including Isis, Taken, Earth, Sunn 0))), and Rosetta. From Oceans to Autumn also released a split album with Scottish labelmates Fire on the Horizon in July 2008, before getting to work on their second LP, which was scheduled for release later that year under the working title of II: Oath of Eternals.
