Oceansize release their new UK single 'New Pin' on Beggars Banquet on Monday the 20th of March 2006. Taken from the band's 'Everyone Into Position' album, 'New Pin' finds the band at their most melodic, all pulsating rhythms and deceptively angelic vocals.

All tracks were produced by Dan Austin (Doves, Cooper Temple Clause) and Oceansize and mixed by Danton Supple (Coldplay, Electric Soft Parade).

Oceansize spent the end of 2005 on the road – completing an arena tour of Europe with Porcupine Tree and headlining their own shows. The band will be bringing their powerful live show back to the UK in March.

'New Pin' will be available on CD (BBQ 394CD), 7" (BBQ 394) and download (BBQ 394DL). Tracklistings are as follows:
