Very mixed on Vaxis 2 but this new one is already dunking on it. THe production alone is so much fucking better and actually being able to hear Travis and him doing shit is so nice to have again. Worst album art I've ever seen in my fucking life tho lmao what are they thinking.

Actually loving this and I haven't even hit the suite yet. I fuckin hated Blind Side Sonny lmao I can't believe they released that doodoo as the first single. It's a little better in context but it's definitely by far the weak link here so far, just got to it on the album.

Anyone who enjoyed The Afterman will be happy with the new one.

The album art on Vaxis II was atrocious, the new one isn't great but a considerable improvement when you see the full image.

Yeah idk I hated V2 art for sure and i guess I'm not seeing the full V3 art but just the kids head in the shitty ass circle looking AI as fuck is one of the worst things I've ever seen with my eyes.

Callback to the Hollow in the intro instantly got me and yeah Goodbye Sunshine was just a really good return to form of solid catchy Coheed that really kept up a steady pace with some good spicy surprises mixed in and the suite is going harder as fuck, easy 4 that might wind up growing, gonna have this looped at work tomorrow after expecting to listen to this once and hop off it.

Just got to Someone Who Can and so far I'm enjoying the album a lot. Some of the '80s cheese works for me and some of it is a little flat but still better than what they did on I and II. Fucking love the title track and Play the Poet. Interested in what this upcoming suite is going to sound like.

V3 > V2 > V1



The Dark Sentencer clears all of this album though.

This is their “Fall Out Boy” album. That’s nothing to be proud of but some catchy tunes for sure.

I don't know. I just re-listened to this a couple of times and it's actually better than I remember. Lots of quality tracks but a weirdo one I stand by is blood
