Belakangan jenuh melanda indera pendengaran saya, lagu-lagu instrumental Chemical Brothers ‹OST Hanna› dan Health ‹OST Max Payne 3› yang sebulan lalu cukup hebi roteshon di daftar putar saya kini bagaikan nasi yang menjadi lembek karena terlalu lama ditanak. Kejenuhan saya segera sirna—setidaknya untuk sementara waktu—setelah saya menemukan The End Of The Ocean.

The End Of The Ocean is an instrumental post-rock band from Columbus, Ohio. From their start in early 2009, The End Of The Ocean has had a penchant for crafting soundtrack-esque athems that move freely from beautiful to trippy to heart-tugging to fist clenching. Heavily influenced by mid 90′s emo and shoegaze (My Bloody Valentine, Mineral, The Appleseed Cast, American Football, Planes Mistaken for Stars), and their post-rock contemporaries (Mono, Envy, Explosions In The Sky), The End Of The Ocean utilizes intricate drumming, subtle guitar arpeggios, and a vast range of effects to craft beautiful, nostalgic and refreshingly unique memorable songs.via The End Of The Ocean
