Coalizione del Volere by The Seldon Plan The Seldon Plan : Coalizione del Volere.
 Sophisticated rock with emo undercurrents.

Coalizione del Volere, the new album from The Seldon Plan, is a direct descendant of their video sessions - reflective of a desire of the band to step back to a more Dischord-era-like guitar-driven rock sound, akin to 2005's Making Circles but with the softer, more mature edge of 2007's The Collective Now. On Coalizione del Volere, the band seems intent on exploring a more angular guitar rock sound within the context of focused melodies and textured intricate harmonies.

Listeners who have enjoyed The Seldon Plan through their first four records will delight as The Big Takeover has at the "...Baltimore foursome's continued maturation." To this end, the band presents a mature Seldon Plan sound, an amalgam of influences that can be heard but do not define Coalizione del Volere. The use of strong and repeatable melodies is reminiscent of the American Analog Set, yet the technicolor layers of Coalizione del Volere bring to mind Let Go-era Nada Surf and The Californian by Sunday's Best. To drive home this past/present dichotomy The Seldon Plan has teamed up again with engineer Frank Marchand (The Thermals, Bob Mould), who worked with the band on 2005's Making Circles, and 2007's The Collective Now.
