Coliseum - No Salvation (2007)

Genre: Hardcore/Crust
Website: Myspace
For Fans Of: Cursed, Trap Them, Tragedy

Coliseum play hardcore. Yeah, so what? There are 4834583045 hardcore bands out there, right? Well, not only do Coliseum play hardcore, but they play it really damn well. The guitarwork is awesome, the rhythm section is impressive and vocals and lyrics are downright pissed. Did I mention the album is produced by Kurt Ballou of Converge fame as well? So, of course, the production is damn near perfect too. I mean, what's not to like? Unless of course you're not a fan of hardcore, in which case you probably wouldn't like it, what with it being hardcore and all. I wonder how many times I can mention the word hardcore before it starts sounding stupid. But seriously, this is a really solid release with fantastic musicianship and I can only look forward to what they put out in the future, whenever that might be.
