[QUOTE="the_reverend:1117881"]THE OCEAN reveal track listing and details on "Anthropocentric" European tour dates with The Dillinger Escape Plan, Cancer Bats The Ocean are currently in the process of mixing their upcoming album Anthropocentric at Studio Mecanique in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, the same place where Heliocentric was recorded and mixed. The album will be mastered on August 25th by Svante Forsbδck in Helsinki. Musically, the album feels somehow heavier than Heliocentric. "The sound is more dense and maybe a tad more raw, which suits the songs perfectly", comments guitar player Jonathan Nido. The album covers a similar sonic and dynamic range as Heliocentric, also including a number of calm, acoustic moments but these are for the most part orchestrated with guitars, and not so much with piano and string section. The focus is on the heavy songs: "The album is a pretty big production, and still has a very earthy, organic feel to it", comments Staps. "We have spent a great deal of time on the basic sound this time around, drums, bass, guitars and vocals and at this stage I am pretty confident that this will pay off in the end!" As far as the concepts behind Anthropocentric are concerned, the focus is on man and his place in the universe: at the center, as many fundamental Christians still claim today, or more likely a dust particle in its periphery? All lyrics are circling around this question. "Anthropocentric will continue the critique of christianity, inspired by the questions that Dostoyevsky asked and some of the answers that Friedrich Nietzsche and Richard Dawkins gave", comments Staps. At the base of the album are three songs with the titles "The Grand Inquisitor I, II and III". These songs have been inspired by the chapter of the same title in Fjodor Dostoyevsky's novel The Brothers Karamasov: a conversation between the brothers Ivan, an atheist, and Alyoscha, a monk. Ivan tells Alyoscha the story of a Second Coming of Christ in 16th century Sevilla. According to this parable, Jesus is arrested by the Catholic inquisition. The grand inquisitor who interrogates Jesus casts a new light on the legend of the temptation of Christ: he reproaches Jesus with having betrayed humanity and having deprived man of salvation by giving him freedom. The conversation between Ivan and Alyoscha mirrors, to some degree, the conversation between the grand inquisitor and Christ and raises more questions than it answers. "This long dialogue, which for the most part is rather a monologue of Ivan, is so complex and recondite that one could easily find inspiration for 10 concept albums about Christianity in it", comments Staps. Only 6 guest musicians are appearing on the album, all classical musicians, most of whom are guesting on the final track of the album. Anthropocentric is an album by The Ocean's consolidated nucleus. "It is the first album where all members have actively partaken in the songwriting", comments Staps. The track listing for Anthropocentric is as follows: 1. Anthropocentric 2. The Grand Inquisitor I: Karamazov baseness 3. She Was The Universe 4. For He That Wavereth 5. The Grand Inquisitor II: Roots & Locusts 6. The Grand Inquisitor III: A Tiny Grain of Faith 7. Sewers Of The Soul 8. Wille Zum Untergang 9. Heaven TV 10. The Almightiness Contradiction 11. The Grand Inquisitor IV: Exclusion From Redemption The last track is a bonus track which will only appear on the vinyl and the limited European deluxe digipak version. THE OCEAN to tour with Dillinger Escape Plan and Cancer Bats through Europe! THE OCEAN will join Dillinger Escape Plan for their upcoming full European tour, which kicks off in Paris on October 1st, 2010, and is ending with an appearance at the DAMNATION FESTIVAL 2010 at Leeds University on November 6, 2010. THE OCEAN guitarist Robin Staps comments: "We are very excited about this tour and honoured to support one of the most exciting and daring bands in heavy music on their upcoming full European tour!"
