Coalesce - OX

Follow Tastebreaker for more info - Coalesce OX review.

14 prayers - 36 minutes. All original members but the drummer, meaning the original guitarist is back.

Best Coalesce album yet - really no filler. There's shit on here that blows my mind, and there are more departures. You still get all the classic Coalesce ish you want. They've perfected the instrumentals/interludes/noise/sample use, and while they've eased up on the breakdowns the songwriting is their best.

Also not to be missed:

Agoraphobic Nosebleed - Agorapocalypse

Same thing...hands down their best record. 13 curses - 28 minutes, making the tracks opuses for Agoraphobic. Sounds like a more electronic, more punk Pig Destroyer. Hateful.

  1. bout time. i never thought i'd get another coalesce record. 12 second revolution is awesome but as the years pass i feel the need for something more from them.
    i'm sure the agoraphobic nosebleed record will be rad as well.
    good heads up gray.

  2. have you really already heard ox, or is this just more bs? If this review is legit, this is going to be something special. Makes sense though, salt & passage was incredible for what it was.
