For thirty-two years, Coroner’s recorded story ended with Grin. The Swiss trio split in the mid-nineties, came back for live shows around 2010, and kept promising new music. Dissonance Theory is finally it: their first studio album since 1993.
Guitarist Tommy Vetterli produced and recorded it at New Sound Studios, with Jens Bogren mixing and mastering. Ron Broder is back on bass and vocals, and Diego Rapacchietti, who joined in 2014, makes his album debut behind the kit. The instrumental bookends “Oxymoron” and “Prolonging” frame eight songs of technical, progressive thrash, with “Renewal” and “Symmetry” chosen as singles.
The album reached number four in Switzerland. After three decades of waiting, it doesn’t sound like a nostalgia act. It sounds like Coroner.
