Absolute BANGER of an album. I was in the same boat as you, I was worried after hearing the singles. But once Disappearing Act hit, it blew me awaaaaay. I think you put it perfectly: The singles are much better in context with the rest of the album. What a masterpiece, and I can't wait for part 3!
Definitely one of their best albums for sure imo. It's so well put together and different. One thing that I've said after many numerous listens, which you also pointed out, was that the guitar tracks kind of get lost in the mix. Not sure if that was intentional to let Josh and Zach shine through more because the drums and bass on this album are absolutely bonkers. Another thing was that Rise Nianasha was probably the single I didn't like as much as the others but after hearing it on the album with that glorious transition from Ladders it's something I look forward to every time now.
Lmfao the effect with your reaction was so good on disappearing act. So good!
"Discoheed and Cambria!" My dude, you nailed it. Disappearing Act and Love Murder One were jarring because of how unexpected they were, but fuck those two rule so goddamned much. Bad Man to a lesser extent, but still excellent. I love this fucking album.
fucking poetic 🤘🏻🔥🍻
Drops mic
ive been a fan practically since i was born, thanks to my dad, the first release i actually remember was NWFT. Even though i know ive listened to them before then. None of their releases have disappointed me, including this one, as you said. I Love This Fucking Album
I heard this album for the first time front-to-back last week and I have to say it's the most refreshing listen in years for me... from any band! Bravo Coheed!
Great reaction! So cool you and I had the exact same feelings and thought process - being the second best album to Good Apollo IV vol 1. And I've been a fan for nearly 20 years.
I am still curious about its lasting power, but I think I've listened to the entire album 50 times or so (and listened to Shoulders once or twice a day for 8 months) and also saw them live a week ago. Now when I think, oh, let me put in Vaxis 1, I immediately think, nope, and play this one again.
Last note: I've seen 4 separate Coheed fan reaction channels rate this as their third best album, ever. I said second, but I think Claudio was super smart to change things up and reinvigorate their "real" fans.
Genuinely one of my favorite albums from them. The trio at the end brings me to tears even now
Fun review video and I loved the editing. Also fun to see a fan listen to this album the first time. My favorites outside of the singles were A Disappearing Act, Bad Man, and Ladders.
im a bit late to the coheed and cambria scene, youtube recommended liars club and i was like wtf?! why am i only listening to c&c just now? listened to the whole album, every song is excellent!
Something about this album is so satisfying for me in ways the previous few weren't. It's multifaceted. It's experimental and all the risks pay off, poppy but not "like" other modern pop, referential to other styles but not dominated by the reference. Storytelling and lyrics are the best they've done in years, and the album has no filler. It really feels like a big swing, and they knocked it out of the park.
I'm really glad seeing just how many people feel this way. Makes me feel less like this was just 'shiny new album' syndrome, and like this really is something special.
Window of the Waking Mind brings me back to the first days of listening to Coheed and Cambria upon their release back when I was starting high school.
This song is beyond a musical as you say, it's truly artistic, and the demo version just proves that this song could have been released 30-40 years ago and would have been amazingly received.
The Liars Club is an amazing track as well.
If you want to see a hidden diamond, it's very niche but if your into post-hardcore and the related genres, check out Timmyhasheart's acoustic covers. He hasn't uploaded in years but they are the best acoustic covers I have ever heard in my life even to this day.
I can't recommend anything, because basically all his acoustic covers are done well.
Dude this was so much fun to watch. Glad you randomly popped in my feed
Glad to hear it my friend, thank you!
20 years in and they make this, wtf is this band? How do they keep doing this?
i used to listen to coheed when i was younger, but fell off for a while, and now this album slays so guess im back in haha
Good taste begets good jams, clearly. I got on the Coheed train kind of late but damn it's a good time to be on.
@@SeiDefinition hell yeah it is 🔥
Listen to Unheavenly Creatures, brother.
Let Love Protocol, All On Fire, and It Walks Among Us wash over you as you imagine yourself riding through a far away galaxy alongside Claudio, kicking ass and crushing faces in the door. 🤘😤
Hot take -
Been a fan since TSSTB and I think Vaxis 2 MAY be my favourite Coheed album.
It isn't quite my favorite but I can easily see it being someone's
Claudio needs to write more songs with 8 strings, Love Murder One and Bad Man are poppy but still hit so hard because of the 8 string. That plus Claudio really pushing himself, doing different things with his vocals instead of the usual stuff he does, its so refreshing.
Best thing they've done in ages. Apparantly the closer was constructed from ideas Claudio had for a rock opera of A Picture of Dorian Grey, which explains a lot
saw them back on the 19th in ATL & it was an epic show 🤘🏻🔥🍻
LOVE MURDER ONE
LOVE MURDER ONE
NO
I WILL HEAR NOTHING ELSE
*LOVE MURDER ONE*
17:48 is my reaction everytime I listen to these songs back-to-back, Ladders into Rise is just so good!!
THERE IT WAS! When you got to "Window of the Waking Mind" I was waiting to hear that word, "Musical". I was thinking the same thing after Vaxis draws the curtain and lyrics become a Narrator's dialogue.
This album has such a Prize Fighter Inferno experimental vibe to it.
Enjoyed your reaction and then you mentioned DGD.. definitely got you a subscriber 😂
Aye love to see it! Hope to have something for the new album soon after it comes out.
This album has been a blessing for us all ❤️
Love murder one is amazing. Incredible incredible incredible album. It is hard to process how good this is. I agree best album since Good Apollo 1.
I always prefer that proggier, heavier side of Coheed and most of this album is not that, per say, but it's SO good!
Great reaction!
Same. I will never forget driving through a forest while blasting 21:13 with my best Coheed bro.
But with this album, the saturated pop sing-along sound gets an unquestionable pass. It's done well, and fits a fresh story set in Claudio's universe.
Josh's drumwork and Travis' guitar licks overall kind of take a backseat (next album, please God please turn up Travis' guitar like in Good Apollo I & II...), and they can afford that with the old reliable plan of letting Claudio's voice make love to your ears, and showcasing Zach to remind you that bass guitar is the musician's safety blanket- so quit writing it off. 👌
"Vital, ballsy." You're goddamn right. Great video.
A disappearing act, Ladders of Supremacy and Window of a waking mind are my favorites
But when I listened to the Disappearing act the first time I melted, something new for Coheed, but I always loved The Prize Fighter Inferno so it hit me in the good way
Last 3 songs are epic masterpieces!!
Amazing album
"Fuck you for being over" lmao
100% agree. its a great *album* on all points, their best and most consistent/coherent since NWFT.
The first minute of A Dissapearing Act is an emotional rollercoaster I was not prepared for when first firing up this album. Very hard to decide between ladders and this one as the top song of the album for me.
Months later, A Disappearing Act is one of my favorite Coheed songs period. I love Ladders, but I love it more in the sequence of the album than I do as a standalone song.
21:16 LOL EVERYBODY HAS THE SAME REACTION HOLY SHIT
"And- ... w-wait. Huh. Does- no, no, it slaps, what the hell???"
It slaps SO HARD it's unfair
Lmao 🤣
Good shit. My favorite though is watching people listen to In Keeping Secrets, or Good Apollo I and going:
"Ahhh uh... Um, wait... This is a fucking prog band? 🤔"
So with some of your comments on Afterman (as I am typing this I have not gotten to your wrap up) and how this holds up against it and Number City (pt 2 lol); do you read any of the graphic novels?
I own the three that make up the most recent run (just got Good Apollo the other week from a twitch supporter actually), I don't have any of the media related to YOTBR or Afterman though, I just know a rough outline of what happens.
I know Coheed from 9 if anyone remembers that movie
When you hear me reference "Good Apollo" and "IV" during this video, I'm referencing the album the song in that trailer came from.
i feel this is as if prisze fighter inferno and coheed had a baby .....
Short of them putting out a Rap album…I’ll listen to whatever they put out!
I'm just saying, their drummer has a rap album and it's not bad at all LOL
@@SeiDefinition 😳
Which one is Coheed and which one is Cambria?
I think the little kid is Coheed.
Coheed & Cambria are a married couple from the Amory Wars comics Claudio & his wife Chondra produce, the music, all the albums except for TCBTS go along with books & comics & tell the story of what's happening in the Amory Wars through song.
Vaxis & his parents Nostrand & Nia are the characters we're following/concentrating on in this album & the last one.
@@MustyAirRL1967 Yeah Brendan and I are just having a giggle
