Oceanhoarse is coming fast and loud!
Having been around for only little more than a year, the Helsinki-based band with Ben Varon (ex-Amoral) on the guitar, Jyri Helko (Warmen, ex-For The Imperium) on the bass, Oskari Niemi on the drums and Joonas Kosonen on the vocals have already been touring widely in Finland as the opening act for names such as Beast In Black, Ensiferum and Freak Kitchen, performing in big summer festivals and playing their first gigs abroad in Tokyo, Japan, to enthusiastic fans, who appreciate not only the hard-hitting music but also the band’s unique visual look – which includes a band mascot, created by cartoonist Dean Clayton – and the authentic approach.
Indeed, the heavy metal group makes a statement against computerized metal music where it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s not – with this band, praised for their wild energy on stage, what you see is what you get, with no backing tracks; a rarity in the heavy music field these days.'
