Artist: COALESCE
Album: OX (DIGI)

Release date: 2009
Media type: CD

With the release of 'OX,' COALESCE encapsulates over a decade of forward-thinking hardcore into fourteen songs that typify the trend-eschewing band and proves that they still have much to say. The Kansas clan lurches uncontrollably, adding just the right touch of bombast and contrast to make the seething aggression all the more impactful, wringing vital emotions from every pore without even a trace of melancholy or regret. COALESCE has always walked it like they talked it and 'OX' is no exception.
