Windmills By The Ocean biography
WINDMILLS BY THE OCEAN is the title of a recently unearthed recording from August of 2003. Five Boston natives Mike Davis, Dave Dunbar, Brooke Gillespie, Bryant Clifford Meyer (ISIS,RED SPAROWES) and Thos Niles (27) recorded five tracks that were shelved until they were released in 2006 by Robotic Empire. They have never played in a live setting and are currently working on new material that is expected to be released in the spring of 2009.

WHY THIS BAND IS IN THE ARCHIVES:

WINDMILLS BY THE OCEAN explore the post rock drone similar to bands Sunn O)) and Earth, but experiment with electronic elements, keyboards, and with much heavier drums. They were approved by the Prog Metal Team and are highly recommended.

Review by Earendil

2 stars Windmills by the Ocean should first and foremost be labeled as a drone album, not a post-metal one. There is some post-metal influence (the guitars are distorted), but it never is very heavy. Basically, the album is just boring, and I fail to see what's progressive about it. Perhaps if someone is into drone metal, he would like this album, but I really can't recommend it. The tracks which flow together never actually build up to anything or change pace. They simply play the same distorted chords slowly over and over again. There are some ambient vocals, but they don't add much. Not really necessary for a prog fan.

Rating: 4/10

Thanks to Plankowner for the artist addition. and to burritounit for the last updates
