Vocalist parts ways with The Ocean

Ben Sailer on 4/7/09 @ 11:10 PM

The Ocean recently parted ways with vocalist Mike Pilat. The split appears to have been amicable, as the German atmospheric metal act released an extensive statement:

"So folks after almost 2 years and an obscene amount of drinking, debauchery and awesome shows I have parted ways with The Ocean. There are many reasons and it was a hard decision to reach but what it boils down to is my poor financial situation and I need to continue working with my other band Collusion and with constant touring this is not possible for me any more.

You can read the rest of the band's statement here.

The Ocean are currently looking for a new vocalist; interested parties can contact the band at info@theoceancollective.com. They last released Precambrian in 2007 on Metal Blade.
