And OP, I'm pretty sure it's Synyster Gates that does the guiar solo on The River too.

Funeral For A Friend - Tales Don't Tell Themselves.
A concept album about a fisherman caught in a storm and becoming adrift before eventually shipwrecked on an island. Meanwhile his wife and child in his fishing village fear him lost to the sea and come to terms with it. Specifically All Hands On Deck Part 1 and 2.

For the more metalcore, 36 Crazyfists mentioned water and waves across a lot of their songs. They have albums called The Tide And It's Takers or Collisions And Castaways, or even the song Elysium from Rest Inside The Flames was one of the first I thought of that even mentions an ocean.

In a pop-punk sense, Alkaline Trio have the underrated Wash Away from a Tony Hawk's soundtrack, more about rain than large bodies of water.

I do rate them on a more emotional level. I don't really care if it was competently put together or had 'errors'. I read for pleasure I'm not doing an academic report or proofreading.

If something is good but I recognise it's not for me I'd probably rate it a 3. Middle-of-the-road, overall meh. 2 and below are things I hated, 4 and above I really liked/loved.
