The Ocean Aotearoa 2024 – Auckland

The Ocean Aotearoa 2024 – Auckland

ON SALE THURS 14 MARCH 9AM

Acclaimed post-metal band THE OCEAN return to Aotearoa this winter to wow audiences. 2023 saw the release of the band’s ninth album Holocene – the heavily conceptual collective’s most exploratory and varied release yet – and the conclusion of the paleontological era they began with 2018’s Phanerozoic I: Paleozoic and continued with 2020’s Phanerozoic II: Mesozoic / Cenozoic. Having flirted more with extreme metal influences on these records than ever before, the arrival of Holocene saw the band – lead by guitarist and mastermind Robin Staps – forge a new path into a world of looped electronics and more subtle melodic experimentation while philosophically reflecting on humanity as always, this time on the nascent realities of a post-pandemic world.

31 May – Galatos, Auckland

01 June – San Fran, Wellington
