Colligere is a seminal fixture in the Brazilian melodic hardcore and post-hardcore scenes, hailing from Curitiba. Formed by members of the straight-edge band Family, they evolved the genre's traditional boundaries by incorporating elements of European screamo and emotional hardcore.
Their sound is characterized by intricate guitar work, utilizing octave chords and melodic leads that provide a soaring counterpoint to the aggressive, raspy vocal delivery of Rodrigo Ponce. Throughout their career, spanning from the early 2000s to their 2022 return, they have maintained a reputation for blending political activism with existential self-reflection. Critically, they are viewed as a bridge between the South American hardcore community and the global DIY screamo movement, often cited alongside bands like Children of Fall. Their discography, particularly 'Incerto' and 'Sobre Determinação e Desespero', remains essential listening for collectors of Latin American independent music, representing a high-water mark for the region's aggressive music output.
