Ocean Grove
Ocean Grove formed in Melbourne in 2010, initially emerging from the post-hardcore scene before developing a more elastic and idiosyncratic version of nu metal and alternative metal. Early releases such as Outsider and Black Label showed the band's heavy roots, but The Rhapsody Tapes in 2017 made their identity clearer: jagged riffs, hip-hop-influenced rhythms, hardcore energy, grunge texture, and a deliberately strange visual and lyrical world the band often frames as "Odd World" music. Flip Phone Fantasy in 2020 pushed further into 1990s alternative rock, nu metal, and electronic color, while Up in the Air Forever brought brighter, looser songs into the same unstable framework. Oddworld, released in 2024, returned some of the band's heavier force while keeping the playful, genre-jumping character intact. Ocean Grove's shifting lineup has included Dale Tanner, Sam Bassal, Twiggy Hunter, Luke Holmes, and Matthew Kopp in different live and studio roles, but the project's core has remained a restless approach to heavy music: distorted, rhythmic, eccentric, and unwilling to stay inside one subgenre.
