Over the years they have released a few EP’s, and there have been the normal set of line-up changes, so much so that they now have bases in both Sydney and Melbourne (for the non-Aussie, the two cities are nearly 900 km apart by road). The line-up on this their debut album is Tobias (vocals) and he is now joined by Patrick Smith (drums), Eamonn Wooster (bass), Nguyen Pham (guitar) and Julian Dobric (guitar). Nic may no longer be in the band, but he co-wrote 6 of the 11 songs on offer. This is an album which revolves around the vocals, with the instrumentation always driving the ear towards the voice of Tobias, which is somehow tuneful yet also distinct and sometimes sharp, sometimes flat. They describe themselves as alt-prog, and while I am loath to give credence to yet another sub-genre I can see where they are coming from.

Glass Ocean were formed in Sydney in the summer of 2013, by vocalist Tobias Atkins and Northlane drummer Nic Petterson.
Over the years they have released a few EP's, and there have been the normal set of line-up changes, so much so that they now have bases in both Sydney and Melbourne (for the non-Aussie, the two cities are nearly 900 km apart by road).

Features. One of Australia's most prominent up and coming acts, Glass Ocean have released their debut album, The Remnants of Losing Yourself in Someone Else via Wild Thing Records.
The Remnants of Losing Yourself in Someone Else draws you into the waves of vocalist Tobias Atkins' heartfelt storytelling, which is escorted by trance-inducing heavy grooves, clouds of futuristic synth layers, and far-reaching, punchy guitars. Produced, mixed and mastered by Chris Blancato (Northlane), Glass Ocean's new record also showcases the continued collaboration with ex-founding member Nic Pettersen (Northlane) who co-wrote album tracks Voyage, A Dream From Which I May Not Wake, Soul Slumber, Divide, Pride, and Almaida.
Swaying smoothly between genres and influences, the record ushers the listener through the compelling emotions and energy of Tobias Atkins’ personal narrative and magnetising vocal performances. Sydney prog-rockers Glass Ocean have released their anthemic debut album, The Remnants of Losing Yourself In Someone Else - Forte. Words by Alex Callan After two revered EP’s, Sydney prog-rockers Glass Ocean have released their debut album, the anthemic and melodic The Remnants of Losing Yourself In Someone Else, out now via Wild Things Records.
With intricate off kilter drum patterns found on ‘Voyage’, it’s no surprise that Nic Petterson, an ex founding member, had his hand in co-writing the album. Akin to Petterson’s individualistic percussive stylings in Northlane, the entire song is dictated by the drumming. More than just keeping tempo,the drumming constantly feels as if it’s two beats ahead of the rest of the song and whatever direction the drums take as does the song. Although that does not discredit the meticulous and impressive instrumentation by every member.
‘Beyond Us’ highlights Tobias Atkins epic ‘Baroness’ styled vocals which are further strengthened by the song’s reverb which creates really cool echoes at moments, such as the bridge, which also has a kind of A Dire Straits vibe to the guitars.

Vocalist, Tobias Atkins says of the track, “Lost in malevolence and spite, sometimes we have travelled too far down a dark road for the light to turn us back. Sometimes, a taste of our own medicine is enough to wake us from the living dead into life. A taste of where our ideals could take us if we dare travel any further down this road.
