‘PROXY: An A.N.I.M.O. Story’ is on the way.
Being As An Ocean have announced their new album.
It’s called ‘PROXY: An A.N.I.M.O. Story’, is a sci-fi themed concept record, and will be out September 13.
You can hear a first song from it, ‘Play Pretend’, right here.
“As we all grow older, our lust for life and its abundant experiences start to wain as we succumb mentally and emotionally to life’s responsibilities, struggles and obstacles,” explained vocalist Joel Quartuccio.
“So often we fixate on the violent tossing and instability that comes from enduring the rapids of life instead of stepping back in our perspective and seeing it instead as a season, another valuable opportunity to strengthen our spirits or souls in a time of reflection and examination, knowing that the storm will indeed pass eventually.”
“If we can continue to have faith in the processes of life and remember that we have lived through hardships before and come out the other side stronger, then we can learn to welcome the challenges, as tools and potential for personal growth.”
“Our strength is found in weakness. This song was an opportunity for us, both as a band and for myself personally, to be reminded of this and resolve, through action, to continue changing our negatives in life into positives.”
