The Divinity of Oceans is the second album by the German funeral doom metal band Ahab. This album was also released through Napalm Records, like their previous releases were.[5]
The album's lyrics are based of the real-life sinking of the Essex whaleship in 1820, the event that inspired Herman Melville to write Moby-Dick. The album's cover was taken from the painting The Raft of the Medusa, by French Romantic painter Théodore Géricault.
