- Genre: Rock
- Description: The Ocean as Mistress' sophomore Insulation Resistance Test Record finds the group strengthening the aspects that have been at the core of their sound since 2003's glistening In Ruins won the band comparisons to Death Cab For Cutie's Transatlanticism, and San Francisco's legendary Red House Painters. For this album the trio sought to turn up the rock intensity so they hired veteran engineer Steve Albini to assist the band in creating what will surely become an indie rock masterpiece. The songs often start off with gentle melodies that gradually swell up like waves that crash onshore with vibrant, hard-rocking intensity - album opener InchSignal FiresInch and album closer InchA Sufferance Exhausted Then RefilledInch are perfect examples. InchLosslessInch documents the loss of hope felt when seemingly strong relationship fails suddenly and unexpectedly - it's not often a singer says to the world InchYour love can't save me,Inch with such conviction. The songs exhibit strong InchheartbeatsInch, rhythms that anchor the songs throughout the numerous verses the band combines into a non-repeating sequence (InchFrame DraggingInch and InchRaze The PeninsulaInch). It's not often that musical qualities like rocking, pretty, and artsy can sit side by side yet remain palatable to the masses, but this is precisely what Insulation Resistance Test Record has accomplished.

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8. Dai the Flu 9. Headup 10. MX
