Ocean’s Avenue ‘Overdo$ed’

Isle of Man’s Ocean’s Avenue have released their second single ‘Overdo$ed’. Written after seeing a friend leaving a toxic relationship which resulted in turning towards alcohol and drugs, ‘Overdo$ed’ carries relatable images of hitting rock bottom, trying to get over someone. Collaborating with Ben Donaldson (VooDoo Bandits), Jamie McIntyre and Graeme of Two Zero Nine Mastering has allowed Ocean’s Avenue to unlock their sound and achieve their vision. Ocean’s Avenue formed in March 2020, just days before COVID-19 lockdown restrictions were implemented. Despite the subsequent challenges that followed for the whole music industry, Ocean’s Avenue have already secured several live shows, delivering electrifying performances that have allowed their fan base to grow.  The boys are currently hard at work recording their first album, consisting of songs they have written together over the past year.

‘Overdo$ed’  is an energetic blast of indie punk that fleshes out Ocean’s Avenue’s catchy and buoyant sound. The band create a bubbling soundscape of elastic bass grooves and driving rhythms with sharp lacerations on guitars that gash throughout. The track is an impressive display of musicianship and a joy to listen to. Filled with an infectious melody and sing-along chorus ‘Overdo$ed’ is a vibrant and energetic tune from Ocean’s Avenue.
