Chicago deathcore heavyweights, OCEANO are unleashing a brand new album on November 9th entitled Contagion.

Unmerciful in its utter viciousness, Contagion takes the band's signature sound to new levels of backbreaking heaviness. However, underneath the chunky breakdowns and terrifying growls lies a story about absolute power, absolute corruption and the evil that exists when everything is put together. "Contagion surrounds the listener in a story of a highly contagious epidemic purposely spread upon the population by corrupt positions of power," says vocalist Adam Warren. "Contagion’s concept further unfolds as the agenda of these actions are exposed and the real chaos ensues."

Produced by Zeuss (MUNICIPAL WASTE, THE ACACIA STRAIN, HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL), the destructive tale that is Contagion will feature the following 11 songs:

'Precursor To Enslavement'

'Viral Re-Animation'

'Regulated Disposal Of Life'

'Quarantine'

'The Contaminated'

'Exist In Confinement'

'Persuasive Oppression'

'Weaponized'

'Sadistic Experiments'

'Remnants Aflame'

'Ending Intellect'

Oceano is giving fans the chance to win an iPad. That's right! A brand-spanking-new iPad is up for grabs. All fans must do is go here and pre-order Contagion on its own, with a hoodie, a shirt or any other configuration. As long as the pre-order is made through the Earache US Webstore, fans will automatically be entered into a drawing to win.

While making their Contagion pre-orders, fans can listen to the brand new track, 'Precursor To Enslavement', now available on Oceano's official MySpace page.
