Proxy:An A.N.I.M.O. Story

Being As An Ocean is the sound of the push and pull of circumstance versus ambition. Their songs are immediately, visceral, and memorable while remaining transformative and empowering. 'PROXY: An A. N. I. M. O. Story', the band's fifth studio album, is nothing short of a creative milestone. Joel Quartuccio mines the depths of his psyche with distinctive power; Tyler Ross evolves from songwriter and guitarist into co-producer; guitarist and melodic vocalist Michael McGough soars to new heights; cofounder and bassist Ralph Sica anchors the proceedings. Wondrously cinematic, taking both band and audience deeper into an infinitely unfolding saga, this is the sound of a reinvigorated entity, ushering in a bold new chapter.
