 (4 Customer Reviews)
Ocean Machine is a beautiful, melodic, haunting album that deals with all of humanity's feelings - loneliness, despair, love, and even life itself. Described by many journalists as 'a concept album akin to the sensuality and escapism of Pink Floyd,' combined with Rush-style over-the-top bravado. Includes the bonus track 'Things Beyond Things'. Inside Out. 2003.
Personnel includes: Devin Townsend (guitar).
Personnel: Devin Townsend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Morgan (keyboards); Marty Chapman (bass guitar, drums); Chris Valagao (background vocals).
Devin Townsend Ocean Machine Songs Ocean Machine Music Review Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars)   ERRATA
this entry has some wrong info:
1. the track listing is wrong. "sister" and "3AM" are separate tracks. move them all down one place. the bonus track is called things beyond things.
2. john harder plays bass on the recording and marty chapman plays drums.

 Classic Sounds, Classic Ideas
It seems that, musically, Devin Townsend always has something important to say. And this album is a very important piece of work (incidentally, it's Biomech, not Biotech -- to any editor of cd universe who monitors comments). I strongly believe that this is a must-have for anybody's collection. I'm hooked.

BRILLIANT
This has to be more of the more overlooked albums i've listened to. Every track on this album is exllecent; from beginning to end. This is also some of the best work that devin townsend has done. I recommend this album to everyone. I consider one of the best albums EVER. I absolutely love this album, and with that i give this album 5 stars (which it so rightfully deserves)

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No MUST HAVE!
I can't believe this has never received any reviews - so here's one because it deserves it. I bought this album 3-4 years ago and it stunning - still stunning! Devin's vocals are great (check out Steve Vai's Sex & Religion) but in my opinion his own music is also amazing. I never cared for his punk-type albums bu this one, Terria, Infinity and Accelerate Evolution are just fantastic. Ocean Machine flows more compared to the others - definitely the best album to buy if you haven't heard Devin's work before!

$13.75 
At first glance, Halford's entry into the crowded holiday market looks like a parody. Heavy metal and Christmas make for strange bedfellows, and WINTER SONGS' pastoral cover art -- which depicts Rob Halford staring wistfully (with a goatee and shades) into a soft, snowy pine forest -- screams Spinal Tap. That said, the Judas Priest frontman approaches yuletide standards like "We Three Kings" and "What Child Is This?" with the same conviction ...

If you played in a hard rock band during the '70s, what were you likely to be doing circa 1978? Why, recording a live album, of course. Preferably a double vinyl set, and in Japan to boot. The Scorpions were no exception, and in fact, their Tokyo Tapes were captured only days after Cheap Trick's At Budokan in April 1978. Though hardly as inspired or successful, the Tokyo Tapes set still serves as an ideal greatest-hits collection of the Scorpions' first decade. This recording also showcases the spectacular playing (and occasionally, the dreadful singing) of guitarist Uli Jon Roth, who would soon leave the band for a misguided solo career, but displays some jaw-dropping technique here, most notably ...

Ocean Machine songs
$12.35
If anything, the Bluetones' debut album, Expecting to Fly, is too accomplished. Like their idols, the Stone Roses, the band has made a first album that is assured, low-key, and subtly charming. Unlike the Roses, they haven't made a consistently engaging album, but that isn't a major flaw, given the abundant hooks and melodies on Expecting to Fly. Lacking the dance inclinations of the Stone Roses, the band instead concentrates on perfectly crafted guitar pop songs, occasionally stretching out into long jams, like the opening "Talking to Clarry," which is too close to "Breaking into Heaven" for comfort. Nevertheless, when the Bluetones kick into a small, hook-laden song like the chiming, infectious "Bluetonic," they are at their peak. Most of the album has gems like "Bluetonic," whether it's the wonderful "Slight Return" or the liquid riffs of "Things Change," but the record could have used more sonic variety. Where their pre-album singles had several lovely acoustic numbers, there is an over-reliance on loud, fuzzy -- but certainly not heavy -- guitars that give the album an unfortunate sameness. However, that feeling begins to fade away as each of the song's melodies comes into focus with repeated listens. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
