Coalesce "Functioning on impatience"

By the time you read this. Coalesce's new lp will be out then. This one on 2nd Nature beats all their stuff they have ever put out. 6 songs of unmatched brutality & 1 "instrumental" song/sample for you sick souls out there to daydream to. Unrelentless riffs of barbaric tunes behind the grinding extreme sounds of the almost broken drumset, sets the mood for some killing. Opening up with Coalesce distintive screaming; "what more do you want from me? Some sort of apology?". From then all it's all nonstop madness until destruction. Added with words like "a fetus or kink in sexual revolution & what am I? A threat, a kink in political consistency. More name games more personal choice" to "if you make decisions colour based & call that power then leave me behind & I won't say a word. I'll just wait until you kill yourselfs over nothing but flesh one thing's sure to die". What more do you want.

Coalesce "give them rope" Almost every metalhardcore band are now taking these guys as their inspiration already. Coalesce's brand of chaotic madness, jazzy bass and out of this world screaming fueled with intelligent lyrics of hate and more, does make them the top of this genre. Throw away your mainstream metal crap, get the true brutal grinding extreme underground stuff.

Converge "when forever comes crashing" Boston’s hardest band, Converge is back. Promising to take you to new grounds. Without disappointment, they have once again made noise so beautiful, your ears will bleed. I don’t think anyone else can come up with the riffs Converge has. Bringing you noise, then an emotional onslaught, then back to noise again. 11 sad songs of emotional noise behind a tormented heart broken vocal. More technical stuff being shown in this release. Even uses a drum machine for one song and more stuff they try to experiment with. Listening to this is like being thrown off the building and when you finally smash on the ground, you just stand up, dance and celebrate. Has a demented picture on the cover and obscure artwork in it.
