COALESCE - GIVE THEM ROPE (2LP)

Coalesce Give Them Rope on 2LP

2 x 12" Vinyl Set featuring the 1996 Version Remastered and a Remixed Version of the 2002 Release

Trailblazing hardcore band Coalesce present the vinyl reissue of their classic debut full-length, Give Them Rope courtesy of No Sleep Records. This double-LP set features a digitally-remastered version of the first edition of Give Them Rope (1996), as well as a second LP with a remixed version of Give Them Rope from 2002.

"Coalesce is very honored to be working with No Sleep Records to give our first full length record a proper home on vinyl. This record has proved to be a very difficult challenge over the years, and some of us felt it was never quite done. The art wasn't correct, that bass line Stacy biffed needed fixing, the mastering was muddy. Whatever anyone has to say about Give Them Rope, the band has their own opinions too. It's true that you never forget your first, and this sentiment is what led us to revisit this record around 2002 to fix those past mistakes as it was going into repress again. The results weren't bad, but they were too different. It's something that George Lucas could appreciate, but old fans could not totally embrace. Because 2002 is in itself a long time ago, and more new fans actually heard the second version than the first, we are doing what we think is the right way to approach this and No Sleep is including both versions in one gatefold package with the original artwork reworked to include both versions." - Coalesce frontman Sean Ingram

"Give Them Rope from Coalesce has been a personal favorite of mine since I first heart it. The record still holds as strong to me as the first time someone showed me it in their car stereo. To be able to release what I believe is a true classic on vinyl is an honor." - No Sleep Records owner Chris Hansen
