Capsize - A Reintroduction: The Essence of All That Surrounds Me (Rude Records) 2016
8
A Reintroduction: The Essence Of All That Surrounds Me represents a change, but don’t let changes fool you. Capsize just take another evolutionary leap in their sound, mind and soul. The most striking thing about Capsize is their incredible sense of cathartic tension they display, finding rare harmony between their own intensity and aggression. A Reintroduction… represents a change in direction, now incorporating more clean vocals and blending catchy chorus with crushing heaviness. Daniel Wand’s vocal-diversity is outstanding and his lyrical approach comes from the heart, the way he shares his feelings is haunting, honest and emotionally heavy. Capsize’s new effort sees the band enter into this bold new territory, while remaining true to their roots, perhaps they’re also shaping what post-hardcore should sound in the future.
