I've been putting off writing a review of Cohesion by The Levitation Hex because I couldn't make up my mind about this album.
Every time I listen to it, I hear parts I like, but end up not liking how everything comes together. There's too much going on on Cohesion to make sense for me: there's 70s psychedelia, classic hard rock, thrash, stoner, prog and death metal. And I just can't figure out what all of this together becomes, except something thoroughly confusing.
Honestly, I just can't fathom what Cohesion is about – except that cohesion seems to be a very sarcastic title for something as scattered as what The Levitation Hex has thrown into the world. I would like to “get” it, and suddenly see the entire picture here, but until then, I'll say that this album is an acquired taste. Try it if you dare....
