Urgent, aggressive, and remarkably cathartic, Let The Ocean Take Me is The Amity Affliction at their most vital best. Recorded by producer Will Putney (Winds Of Plague, Upon A Burning Body) at guitarist Troy Brady s Evergreen Studios in Brisbane, the album pushes the band s signature post-hardcore approach to new heights of richness and diversity, providing the consummate aural partner to vocalist Joel Birch s increasingly more potent lyricism. Inspired in part by a near death experience suffered during 2013's Vans Warped Tour, songs like "Don t Lean On Me" and "FML" are fueled by desperate emotion and intense anxiety but achieve extraordinary transcendence through radical honesty and raw power.
