Review: Rolo Tomassi – Cosmology

For fans of:  The Dillinger Escape Plan / Mogwai / HORSE the Band / Iwrestledabearonce

Rolo Tomassi are a genuine forward thinking, euphoric and ambitious band always pushing the very boundaries of the Metal and Hardcore genres.  Unlike a certain Nu-Metal band that like to produce synth pop albums and then call it “experimental” (I’ve heard it’s all the rage now), Rolo know how to create a true work of art.  After witnessing an absolutely phenomenal set from this noisecore crew at this year’s Download festival, and loving their first album Hysterics, I was compelled to check out their latest offering, Cosmology.

Diplo produced Cosmology is the band’s second album, released in May this year after suffering delays.  The wait was worth it though, and with Cosmology, Rolo Tomassi present a much greater and more rounded proposition than their debut.  If you thought Hysterics was good, you are going to love this.

Without further ado, I present to you my review of Rolo Tomassi’s latest offering.
