This is a melodically stunning record in which instrumentation strikes the disc's first chord.
"Rebirthing" is a grand opening statement. Guitarist
Ben Kasica cooks a delectable platter of tasty lead fills that are accompanied by
orchestral tones all over the disc. The same is true of the title track,
"Comatose." Here the band uses a proven recipe -- staccato guitars, piano, and orchestration -- to bring the tune home.
"The Last Night" feels like classic
Skillet. The tune boasts a feel-good chorus that shouts "radio-friendly." The same can be said for
"Yours to Hold," as
John Cooper's familiar vocals and warm vibe emanate from the tune. The same sensation strikes the track
"The Older I Get." Here, the tune is once again radio-ready with an infectious, singable chorus.
Comatose is a record that sustains on many levels.
Cooper is really on target. Quiet moments like
"Say Goodbye" are effectively woven with heavier moments like
"Those Nights." When guitar progressions meet piano nuances, special things happen with this band.

SENSATIONAL!!!!
I first heard The Last Night on the radio, and had to buy the CD. I had heard nothing of the group previously, and now I find myself infatuated. By far, my all-time favorite CD. The Older I Get is on repeat in my CD player right now!
