Death Cab for Cutie to release new album next year

According to a new Spin article, Death Cab For Cutie is ready to plan their next album for 2011. Frontman Ben Gibbard commented on the album which will be their seventh:

It’s not a guitar-based record,We’ve been into vintage keyboards and playing with that palette. We’re not adding guitars because people will be expecting them…I’m so proud of this album that at this point I don’t care if people don’t like it. We’re all moving into a period in our lives where family is very important, So living off in the woods for a month away from family isn’t something we want to do. On this record I’ve written a couple songs in our downtime between studios and we start recording that brand new song on the first day of the next session, which is something we’ve never really had the opportunity to do before.

The band will support the Foo Fighters next year at one of their Miilton Keynes Bowl shows in July.

The Ocean: ‘Anthropocentric’

The Ocean Progressive hardcore and metal collective The Ocean have posted a stream of their new album. Due out on November 9, 2010, the album is titled Anthropocentric. It follows Heliocentric from April.

The concept at the base of both albums is a critique of Christianity from different philosophical and personal angles. While the songs, art and lyrics of Heliocentric tell the story of the rise of the heliocentric world view and its effects on Christian belief from medieval times to Darwin and Dawkins, “Anthropocentric” challenges the views of creationists and other modern fundamentalists who still believe that the earth is at the center of the universe.

Find the stream via Metal Sucks.
