Oceans of Sadness - History

History

Oceans of Sadness caught their first bit of attention in 1996 when one of their demos was chosen Demo of the Month in the Dutch metal magazine Aardschok.

They released their first album, For We Are, in 2000. One year later, they played for the first time at Graspop Metal Meeting, the most famous Belgian metal festival. They would return there in 2003 and 2007. Oceans of Sadness definitively broke through when their single So Close was given airtime by music television channels TMF and JIMtv.

Oceans of Sadness have been supporting acts for a.o. Dimmu Borgir, Within Temptation and Obituary.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The true theater of history is therefore the temperate zone.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “Let us not underrate the value of a fact; it will one day flower in a truth. It is astonishing how few facts of importance are added in a century to the natural history of any animal. The natural history of man himself is still being gradually written.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “If you look at history you’ll find that no state has been so plagued by its rulers as when power has fallen into the hands of some dabbler in philosophy or literary addict.”
    —Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
