History

Upon its formation in 2006, the band (also known as Blackchapel) then featured 6 members and performed at local venues in the Chicago area. Their most prominent song then was "Candyman".^{[citation needed]}

Carrol gathered Chicago guitarist Andrew Mikhail, vocalist Adam Warren, drummer Michael Southcomb and bassist Kevin Hare to form Oceano's first full line-up in 2007. After a year, Southcomb and Hare parted ways with the band. They were soon replaced by drummer Daniel Terchin and bassist Jason Jones. Oceano signed to Earache Records in 2008 after gaining a notable local following. Oceano recorded their full debut album Depths in late 2008, releasing it worldwide on April 20, 2009.

Jeremy Carrol was fired from the band in January 2009 due to personality conflicts between members.^[1][2] On February 3, 2010 their lead guitarist, Andrew Mikhail, departed from the band.^[3][4][5]

Oceano was a part of the 2011 Summer Slaughter Tour in North America alongside co-headliners Whitechapel & The Black Dahlia Murder.
