Oceansize - One Day All This Could Be Yours

Oceansize's second single is a track that blends brooding menace with off-kilter vocal rounds.

The melody, slightly flanged, moves along hypnotically. As it builds pressure in a minor key, you're happily carried along in its gloom.

But it's so reminiscent of Radiohead's guitar sounds circa OK Computer. And while it sounds great, it's not Oceansize's great, and that's a shame. Still, the references to Cardiacs in Breed Siamese are more laudable, and pay homage to a better band.
