Channeling the lessons of the experimental Porcupine into more conventional and simple structural parameters, Ocean Rain emerges as Echo & The Bunnymen’s most beautiful and memorable effort.
Ornamenting Ian McCulloch’s most consistently strong collection of songs to date with subdued guitar textures, sweeping string arrangements, and hauntingly evocative production, the album is dramatic and majestic; “The Killing Moon,” Ocean Rains emotional centerpiece, remains the group’s unrivalled pinnacle. – All Music Guide
