Oceansize - Frames Oceansize
Definitive 2CD edition including three bonus tracks and an essay by Remfry Dedman in a 4-page printed booklet.
Oceansize's 'Frames' - the definitive 2CD edition - includes three bonus tracks & essay by Remfry Dedman in a 4-page printed booklet.
Originally released in 2007, Oceansize's 'Frames' stands as a testament to the UK band's fearless ambition & uncompromising creativity
The 'Frames' sessions marked a turning point for the band, emerging from the shadows of their critically acclaimed yet commercially unfulfilled second album, 'Everyone Into Position' (2005). This time, unbound by the pressures of mainstream appeal, Oceansize embraced a newfound freedom, pouring their creative energy into crafting an album that is as challenging as it is rewarding. The result is a record that revels in its expansive, cinematic scope.
"a vast, rewarding journey...Oceansize's latest masterpiece" - POPMATTERS
From the hypnotic melodies of "Commemorative ___T-Shirt" to the crushing beauty of "Trail Of Fire," 'Frames' captures Oceansize at their best, unafraid to explore the highest peaks & darkest depths of their musical ambitions. Recorded predominantly at the iconic Monnow Valley Studios with Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, Biffy Clyro, Shed Seven) returning as producer, 'Frames' has a timeless quality that sounds as fresh now as it did upon its original release.
"many bands will only dream of producing eight tracks & sixty minutes of music as good as this in their careers" - THE LINE OF BEST FIT
This Kscope edition presents 'Frames' across two CDs, expanding the original album with three additional tracks: 'Red Rag To A Bear' & 'Siberian Bullshit', previously only available on Myspace, alongside the single 'Voorhees', previously only available on CD.

Nearly two decades after its original release, 'Frames' remains one of Oceansize's most ambitious & rewarding albums.
