The only disctinction is that A) you picked the wrong Ocean (sorry have to in every thread) and B) Isis are so much better it's not even up for debate.Rawr.

Former is the shit.
Latter is pretty good, but not close. Bias in full effect.

Yeah that's the song that plays when you fight the boss in Link's Awakening right?

I miss my old avatar now.
I legit plan to get the windfish tattooed on me.
That being said. I wish it was the boss song.

Like Vheissu-through-Major/Minor-era Thrice after they were listening to and touring with Russian Circles... their post-metal post-hardcore phase.
I honestly think OMG sounds more like a post-hardcore band than a metal band.
Now Sumac, they're metal.
EDIT: In case it was not clear from this post, I thoroughly enjoy both Thrice and OMG.
Once they got that metal-edged pop punk out of the way on the first two albums, Thrice got pretty great. It was around the time teenagers stopped liking them.The heavy stuff on that 4 part album was the ticket. Stone cold grooves.

I mean on Vheissu a little (specifically The Earth Will Shake and Hold Fast Hope), but I don't see it.
Like apples and pears.

why all the hate for The Ocean?
for me, they are fucking amazing. Although better than Isis? That's a long discussion with no right answers

I agree with Axel. The Ocean don't suck.
But you know, comparing them to Isis is sort of a non issue?
I always thought the Ocean were more of a prog sort of thing. One of those exercises in technical excellence that you either love or hate. Their song song structure and composition is amazing at points.
Whereas Isis is more of an immersive thing. More about them feels and creating a place to enter to.
Whatever.
