EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
Once again engineered by Kurt Ballou at Godcity Studios, Seizures In Barren Praise shows Trap Them at their most vicious. Having mastered their art of aural bludgeoning, the album musically rips, stomps, and claws forth with rabid emotion. All of this a fitting backdrop to Ryan Mckenney's lyrical stories of depression and pain. Barren Praise is a fictional ghost town version of every non-fiction town says McKenney. Lyrically, previous Trap Them releases are all stories from people who had lived in Barren Praise before deciding to up and leave. This is the story of those who stayed behind to tell the stories of watching everything unfold...states McKenney. Upon listening, it's hard not to picture fragments of your own life as part of the chaotic debris that are these fictional lives. The friends, family, and faces of those that make up the ensemble cast of your own life are all there, indirectly. Making Seizures In Barren Praise a broken mirror into their world and your own, exposing every fear, weakness, and wound. All of it set to one of the heaviest and most punishing metallic soundtracks, ever.

Some of the Best Stuff Around by C. Brauer (Lakewood, CO)

Trap Them is a difficult band to categorize, which is why it makes it fun to do! It is a mix between punk, grind, and metal. Some might call that hardcore, or even metalcore (bear with me on this). Both are a bit off base. It is much too fast-paced to be metalcore, and much too rythmic and groovy to be strictly hardcore. Actually, it can be too fast for the "hardcore" genre at times too. Make any sense to you? Yeah, me neither. And yet, it still seems to describe the music! These songs are fast-paced. Lets get that straight. They very frequently use grind-esque fills in parts of the music that only a discerning listener would be able to hear (easiest example is "All Hands on the Medic" from Sleepwell Deconstructor, an earlier album). There are also slower (sic), groovier parts strewn throughout the music. For as fast and in-your-face as this album is, it has some very subtle tricks up its sleeve. This is not an album you can entirely absorb in one sitting, or even three. It can be extremely technical music, with great dynamic timing changes. It is the best example of whatever genre it actually happens to reside. And its heavy.

This is what metal hardcore should sound like. by Eric Dahlstrom (Michigan)

Negative Approach meets Wolverine Blues era Entombed. The vocals are trad hardcore style..and the guitars swing like classic Swedish death metal.

Highly Recommended by Stephen Hoffman (Miami, FL)

It's an excellent album. I wish I had time to elaborate, but if you're into grindcore, or crust punk then definitely check it out. Even if you aren't in to grindcore, you will be after listening to this album.

	Ox EP by Coalesce 'OX,' the critically acclaimed reunion release from COALESCE, was the first new music released by the band in almost a decade. As the name implies, OXEP continues and completes 'OX' in theme and deed. This is obvious on the bombastic likes of "The Blind Eye" and the percussive "To My Ruin," while the acoustic, dramatic "Joyous in Life" and "Absent in Death" offer the more melancholic side of this tremendous, uncompromising band.
