Oceansize are a Manchester outfit with a distinctly non-Manchester sound, evoking diluted post-grunge rock more than any sort of Britpop. At their heavier moments, their proggy, arty metal-lite sounds just like the MOR offspring of Soundgarden, Alice in Chains and Incubus. While I respect bands that make honest but untrendy music, Everybody Into Position just sounds desperately dated and tired. There’s not much going on here that you haven’t already heard done better.
