The Go-Betweens – Oceans Apart

The Go-Betweens – Oceans Apart (2xCD)

The Go-Betweens return with Oceans Apart, a refined and reflective late-period album that showcases the band’s signature blend of literate songwriting, melodic elegance, and understated emotional depth.

Originally released as part of their acclaimed final era, Oceans Apart captures the dual songwriting voices of Robert Forster and Grant McLennan at their most poised and mature. The album moves between intimate storytelling and sweeping, quietly powerful arrangements, reaffirming their reputation as one of indie rock’s most influential songwriting partnerships.

With highlights including “Here Comes A City,” “Streets Of Your Town,” and “Finding You,” the record balances nostalgia, observation, and melodic sophistication in equal measure.

This 2CD edition also includes a video performance of “Here Comes A City,” adding visual context to one of the album’s standout tracks.
