Oceangrunge is an electronic music genre that has emerged in 2014 influenced by early vaporwave,
drone, grunge and
nu metal. Although still open to interpretation, it is said to be a reflection of the godlessness and hopelessness of contemporary western society. The vastness of the ocean serves as both a metaphor to allude to this concept, as well as alluding to the breadth of the dissonant droning sound of the
music itself.
Sea of
Dogs and Poseidon in Chains are examples of
two artists that have been
tagged, Oceangrunge, on Bandcamp.
