The track "Gloom" presents a raw and introspective look at the personal battles that we all face. It underscores the band's signature blend of emotive storytelling and layered soundscapes, speaking to the resilience of the human spirit. Being As An Ocean shares their thoughts on the themes and inspiration for the new track by saying;
"Gloom is a song about recognizing our own personal demons and character flaws that we all have. With self-awareness, we can begin to see when they pop up and poke their heads into our lives. We can fight back. Each of us has different 'monsters' inside of us, which also means that with practice and growth, we each have different heroic qualities in us. These are the positive things that we must grow and foster out of necessity to fight our own personal mental battles. We then take those strengths and bring them into the physical world as forces of change for good. The song is an encouragement to anyone who is struggling with an internal battle. As long as you continue to fight and persevere, with grace, acceptance, and love for yourself, you will grow more than you could have ever imagined. We can slay or at least tame the monsters in us."
Before releasing 'Death Can Wait', Being As An Ocean released singles "Death Can Wait", "Swallowed By The Earth", "Flesh And Bone" and "The Fullness of My Being". Combined with the 6 new tracks released today, 'Death Can Wait' is another extremely personal set of songs loaded with pure emotion that evolves the band's legacy of crafting deep, introspective music that speaks to the soul and offers a profound and introspective journey through the band's latest musical explorations.
