November 17, 2010, 14 years ago
OCEANO's new album, Contagion, sold 2,955 copies in its first week of release, landing the Chicago deathcore heavyweights at #163 on the Billboard Top 200. The band also debuted on the Billboard Heatseekers chart at #3.
This is a tremendous achievement for the young band and only cements their role as a legitimate force in the metal world.
"We're excited to have made the charts;" says Oceano's formidable frontman, Adam Warren. "We also know that this or any other success we've faced would have been possible without the support of our loyal fans and listeners. Thanks a lot and we'll catch you on tour."Oceano recently debuted their video for the track 'Weaponized'. This is the band's first video from Contagion, and it was directed by Kevin J. Custer (TESTAMENT, HATEBREED, TOMBS, JUSTIN BIEBER). The video features explosive performance footage of the band acting as a counterpoint to a high tension situation that builds throughout the video.
Everyone involved in the making of the video put a lot of hard work into it. Oceano frontman, Adam Warren recalls the shoot and is excited about how everything came together: "It was a very good shoot. It was put together quickly and efficiently. We had a very professional group of people working with us and they really did a good job of creating a visual experience to tie in with the story and overall themes for both the song as well as the album."
