help Coroner - No More Color FAQ
Why does Coroner's No More Color sound more progressive than typical thrash metal?
The trio uses irregular transitions, dissonant guitar voicings, and active bass lines without abandoning thrash-metal speed. Songs such as "Die by My Hand" compress those ideas into tightly controlled arrangements rather than extended progressive-rock suites.
Who were the three musicians on No More Color?
The lineup was guitarist Tommy T. Baron, bassist and vocalist Ron Royce, and drummer Marquis Marky. Coroner's trio format makes the amount of rhythmic and harmonic detail on the 1989 album especially striking.
Which Coroner album comes before Mental Vortex?
No More Color directly precedes Mental Vortex, which arrived in 1991. The two records share Coroner's technical precision, although Mental Vortex gives more space to controlled grooves and longer structures.
Did Coroner have a connection to Celtic Frost?
Yes, members of Coroner worked as road crew for fellow Swiss band Celtic Frost before establishing their own career. Celtic Frost frontman Tom G. Warrior also contributed vocals to Coroner's 1987 debut, R.I.P.
