영국 출신의 브릿 팝, 모던록 계열로 분류할 수 있는 4인조 록 밴드로 멤버는 Steve Cradock, Simon Fowler, Damon Minchella, Oscar Harrison로 구성되어 있다. 1992년 1집[Ocean Colour Scene]으로 데뷰하지만 별다른 주목을 받지 못하고 4년의 공백기를 보낸 후 1996년 2집 [Moseley Shoals]을 발표하는데, 수록곡 중 'The Riverboat Song'이 영국차트 15위까지 오르면서 인기를 모으게 된다. 이듬해인 1997년에 3집 [Marchin' Already]를 발표하고 'Hundred Mile City'가 히트한 이 앨범은 영국 앨범 차트 2위에 오르는 폭발적인 인기를 얻게 된다. 비슷한 시기에 그동안 공개하지 않았던 미발표곡 및 싱글 B-Side수록곡들을 모은 비정규 음반 [B-Sides: Seasides & Freerides]을 발표하기도 했다. 1999년 4집[One From the Modern], 2001년 [Mechanical Wonder]를 내놓으며 영국내에선 정상급의 인기를 과시하고 있다. 2001년 이들의 베스트 앨범 [The Very Best of Ocean Colour Scene: Songs for the Front Row]가 발매되었고, 국내에선 [Mechanical Wonder]에 수록된 'Up on the downside'가 당시 017 CF에 삽입되면서 관심을 모으게 되었다.

Up On The Downside
This England made me
Between the war and a rockets flying
You found the crib that saves me
And teach me wrong and right
Then the world was talking
It never got it's chance to say
When there's too much talking
Nobody hears the words you say
[Chorus]
You won't see
Baby now I want you
These blind communications
Only last throughout the year
And half of what we're saying
Is halfway in a truth
And blind communications
For a million hearts and fools
I am a witness
To a land of a million fools
All placing bets on life
Then hate the ones you lose
And all the lonely
Never get the chance to say
That their one and only
Would be the chance to even play
[Chorus]
Hello Monday
The week is just a blur
I've been burning bridges
And now I'm begging at your door
So I keep on working
'cause it's a chance for me to pay
But too much talking
When you believe the words I say
[Chorus]

The Riverboat Song
I see double up ahead
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars
And his double
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see double, that's my trouble
