Comalies XX

by Lacuna Coil

supported by

Michael Comalies XX has the newer interpretations and the classic versions of Comalies tracks. What a bargain being able to find this on Bandcamp and not have to deal with Amazon. Lacuna Coil is one of those bands you don't want to miss a single song by. Delighting minds with my shadow. You're lost in a world that I need to repair. I love Entwined, Comalies, Swamped, and Tightrope. Every song on this album is awesome. I recommend Unleashed Memories too if you enjoy this album. Favorite track: Comalies XX.

about

It was October of 2002, and the turn of the millennium saw the world of heavy music in flux. If you were paying attention to the press then you’d have probably been reading about the chart-smashing successes of bands like Korn and Queens of the Stone Age, and while Nu Metal was undeniably king, the angst-ridden musical fragmentation of the 90s had produced a panoply of genre-bending up-and-comers who refused to sit comfortably in any pre-ordained category or play by the creative rules laid out for them. It would swiftly transform the musical landscape in ways nobody could have predicted, and riding the crest of that wave was a humble Italian outfit who dared to dream big.

Lacuna Coil had already been around for eight years, and their two previous releases – 1999’s debut In A Reverie and 2001’s Unleashed Memories via longtime label Century Media had roundly established them as a formidable studio and live act spearheaded by Andrea Ferro and Cristina Scabbia’s pitch-forked vocal delivery, but the gulf between Milan’s most promising exports and wider recognition was down to more than geography alone. While the genetic material for 2002’s Comalies was already in place in the form of bassist and songwriter-in-chief Marco ‘Maki’ Coti-Zelati, Lacuna Coil’s third release was the pivotal moment that would usher in a globe and decade-spanning career. All that said, while the landmark release would undeniably change their destiny forever, what is now undeniably an anthem laden millennial classic was anything but an overnight success. If anything, it established Lacuna Coil as a band with the stamina to go the distance and much of the climbing still lay ahead.

Now, 20 years later, Lacunca Coil decided to revisit the songs, but not to just re-record the songs as they were, but deconstruct and transport them into 2022. “This is not a reboot or a spin-off or anything like that,” says vocalist Cristina Scabbia.”We just wanted to give these songs a 2022 dress and see how this guy or girl who was born 20 years ago would still look fucking slick in 2022.”

"Comalies XX" includes both the newly-recorded version of the entire album, as well as the original "Comalies" record for the purists and competists.

I’ve been a fan of In Flames since 96’ and I’ve stopped listening to them after “Come Clarity”, but I still have faith in them knowing one day, they’ll make a come back with a heavier album and “Foregone” is that come back album of sorts, it’s a mash up of all that they’ve done and it is a good solid modern melodic death metal album.
