Coma Beach returns with "Passion/Bliss," the final piece of their "Scapegoat Revisited" trilogy, marking 30 years since their debut album, "The Scapegoat’s Agony." This EP, inspired by Samuel Beckett’s "Waiting for Godot," revives two of the most intense tracks from the 1995 release, delivering a gripping and unfiltered experience.
"Passion" begins with a steady build, its raw instrumentation supporting spoken-word reflections that eventually explode into anguished cries: “Where is my passion?” A searing guitar solo rips through the haze, echoing the desperation of the antihero’s struggle with emotional emptiness.
"Bliss" shifts gears, descending into an even darker realm. Gritty guitar tones and haunting vocal layers paint a picture of complete detachment. “You’ll be happy when you don’t have to think,” the voice sneers, capturing a mind lost to apocalyptic visions. The track’s relentless energy mirrors the chaotic, cyclical doom it describes, making it impossible to ignore.
With "Passion/Bliss," Coma Beach proves that their music still cuts deep. The EP’s updated production enhances its visceral impact while preserving the grit and depth that made the originals unforgettable. A powerful, unapologetic conclusion to a decades-long journey, this release is essential listening for those who crave music that challenges and provokes.
