Collateral Dimension gives me the same vibe as Inanimate Existence, but with better songwriting and less random tech bullshit. Very entertaining while also somehow not being very aggressive (not a bad thing). Really digging this band.
Favorite track: Detach from the Abyss.

METAPHYSICAL ESSENCE
Alienation of desire,
Paradigm of psyche,
All searching for an omniscient god
who will illuminate the truth of a lost equilibrium.
The true way is not the mind,
but the heart,
we will suffer and divide
our ego in several spaces, of endless wisdom.
Finally embrace hate
and focus on this world made of separation,
I ask you to open your mind to a cosmic contact,
for a new sun studded with karma.
Look at the perversion
which surrounds the whole existence,
but close your eyes and imagine
your life without hate-reflecting mirrors,
follow your soul in its search.
Subconscious has taken over,
evade the earth,
you have reached transcendental meditation,
the planets aligned on the horizon
leave out now from human apprehension.
Remain in soothing silence
and escape in primordial paradise.
COLLATERAL DIMENSION
Everything looks pure, untouched,
a dimension of harmony
where the living and non-living
find the right balance.
The sweet flight of a butterfly
hypnotises my senses,
for a moment I decide to be part of it.
A daydream that seems impossible to wake up.
A sudden anxiety takes over my quiet,
necessity alters my cathartic state.
I feel the borders of my being
colliding with my body walls, dividing itself,
like planets and continents finding their order
and drifting away into the universe,
reshaping the borders.
I suffocate slowly, inhaling
what looks a sterile
perception of existence.
Collateral Dimension
Sever the dense ever mutating noise from the making,
the primordial sound that shaped the infinite,
collide until the end,
searching for the ancestral stillness,
the agonising cry of creation.
Italian technical death metal wizards conjure up their highly awaited full length album after releasing a belter of an EP in 'Contact with the Entity'. Expectations were already sky high but it's safe to say that Coexistence have not only met them but also surpassed them by a huge margin with 'Collateral Dimension'. They've grown by leaps and bounds and this album here is nothing short of a marvel in comparison. There's controlled aggression and exquisite melodies, ensconced effortlessly in their elaborate, sinuous and ever-changing structures. The album is highly varied and incorporates everything you'd want from this style of technical death metal with a lot of curveballs thrown in to prevent complacency from settling in. It's an enchanting and rivetting experience from start to finish as you discover new facets every time. With a mind-blowing artwork from Adam Burke, the album is beautifully able to express its sci-fi-themed vision where this kind of music goes, with perfect production values ensuring that everything is clear yet powerful. This has already proved to be a good year for Transcending Obscurity for such forward-thinking death metal music goes, with bands like Hateful, Atræ Bilis and even Sepulchral Curse paving the way for Coexistence's release and others such as Depravity, The Scalar Process and Revulsion.

Greek technical death metal band Cerebrum have crafted a masterful album that is at once rhythmic and addictive, while being technical in its own meticulous way. This gets better with more listens. Coexistence
These Canadian death metallers are turning the genre on its head by blending influences of all the subgenres of death metal to create something absolutely rivetting and unpredictable. Terrific stuff! Coexistence
Italian tech death band come up with some pummelling, intricate death metal that is bound to get repeat listens. It's absolutely fantastic how they retain power and catchiness despite the complexity. Coexistence
