MÈLANCOLIA - SHARE NEW SINGLE "SPIT!" OFF NEW ALBUM 'RANDOM.ACCESS.MISERY' FEAT. CHRISTOPHER MACKERTICH OF DREGG

Melbourne blackened nu-metal outfit MÉLANCOLIA share new single 'SPIT!' featuring Christopher Mackertich of DREGG, off their sophomore album 'random.access.miseryout Friday August 29 via Greyscale Records and Nuclear Blast. The band join THY ART IS MURDER on a regional tour of Australia starting this week.

'SPIT!' is a shift in MÉLANCOLIA's established sound, expanding on the nu-metal-influenced direction the upcoming album promises. It's the first track in their catalogue to feature clean singing and the first to include a guest feature. The new single adds another layer to the dark atmosphere they’re becoming known for and was written to be played live—specifically to cater for sing alongs, mosh pits and stage dives.

Leading single 'ALL_IS_RUST' came before 'SPIT!' and released as both a declaration of evolution and a warning: MÉLANCOLIA are not here to follow trends—they’re here to dismantle them. MÉLANCOLIA’s forthcoming album random.access.misery melds metalcore, deathcore, industrial noise, blast beats and DJ scratching and blends into a hellish sonic cocktail. 'ALL_IS_RUST' and 'SPIT!' welcomes listeners to the band's new sound and a genre the band have coined as “Blackened Nu Metal”.

'SPIT!' is streaming everywhere now. random.access.misery will be out everywhere via Greyscale Records and Nuclear Blast on Friday August 29.

OCEANS - Release Video For New Single 'Spit'

OCEANS release their latest single 'Spit' as part of their third studio album. Just under a month before the release of their new long-player HAPPY, the German nu-metallers give a further impression of what kind of force can be expected. The new single is accompanied by a music video that directly conveys the raw and gritty vibe that OCEANS is known for bringing to their fans when playing live. Watch the new music video for 'Spit' below.

Timo Rotten comments: 
"Sometimes life sucks and you just want to shred everything to pieces. At that exact moment, we wrote 'SPIT'. Have fun with that one. It’s perfect for cleaning your house, working out, or smashing a car with a baseball bat.”

About:
Germany’s Nu Death powerhouse OCEANS are back with unprecedented ferocity since their debut EP in 2018. Brace yourself for their third album HAPPY, a colossal juggernaut that once again showcases the band's ability to seamlessly fuse Nu Metal, Death Metal and Post Rock into their own signature sound. The days of subtle introversion seem to be over. As the world faces one crisis after another, OCEANS are channeling their frustration at the state of the world into a bold statement against the influence of social media on society, while staying true to their mission of promoting mental health awareness. This band has never sounded as angry as they do now, and these 11 songs are impressive proof of how well that emotion suits them. Surely this is also what convinced Australia's finest, keyboardist MISSTIQ and Josh Collard from EARTH CALLER, to take part as feature artists on two tracks. OCEANS ’previous album Hell Is Where The Heart Is put the band on the road with international acts like BLIND CHANNEL in 2022, as well as supporting ANNISOKAY in 2024. It’s safe to say that HAPPY will ignite massive mosh pits on their upcoming extensive European tour with SEPTICFLESH in October 2024.
