Coheed and Cambria - Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking Mind (June 24, 2022) Album • Page 60

Awesome rendition.

 

This is so sick. Have they had posters like this for all the shows? I unfortunately can’t make it but now I’m more upset because I want this so bad lol.

 

I've only seen one other one. Atlanta did not have one.

 

Only some shows have them. They didn't do them for all.

 

Saw them on Tuesday night, god they were so fucking good and now I’m just on a discography kick.

 

now that it's been a few weeks, I find that I've bounced off Vaxis 2 pretty hard. or maybe I'm just not in the right mood.

 

I feel like I go back to this a whole lot. Shot way up to being one of my favorite Coheed records.

 

1. A Disappearing Act
2. Window of the Waking Mind
3. Rise, Naianasha (Cut the Cord)
4. Comatose
5. The Liars Club
6. Ladders of Supremacy
7. Love Murder One
8. Blood
9. Shoulders
10. Beautiful Losers
11. Our Love
12. Bad Man

After having some time with the album I can finally rank it lol. I definitely like this more than Vaxis I, the shorter length helps a lot. A Disappearing Act is probably in my top 3 songs ever by them now, I really love everything about it.

 

The Liar's Club
Rise, Naianasha (Cut the Cord)
Comatose
Love Murder One
A Disappearing Act
Window of the Waking Mind
Beautiful Losers
Ladders of Supremacy
Shoulders
Blood
Our Love
Bad Man

I think Love Murder One is so underrated, meaning that no one ever seems to mention it. I only put the 3 above it because those hooks are top-tier melodies from Claudio.

 

I don't know if I could rank the songs but hate for Bad Man makes me feel bad man.

 

It's solid, just my least favourite. Not a huge fan of that kinda chorus.

 

cannot wait to see them tomorrow!

 

I’ll be there too!! So pumped - haven’t been to Forrest Hills Stadium yet either

 

Got my tickets for august 7th!

 

Got a last minute crew together for tonight's show, so pumped!

It's a very large venue for them, so I'm interested to see how the turnout is.

 

Apparently Claudio mentioned in an interview that he was high, listening to MJ, and thought...maybe I can make a song like this...lol

 

I want to know what influenced Our Love.

 

Whatever he was listening to while making the last Prize Fighter album lol

 

Wowwww based on the live response A Disappearing Act is going to be a hit

 

Can’t wait

 

that makes the song 100x better. Also all I can ever think of while listening is Vegeta so I love it.

 

Tonight ruled.

 

This thread is hyping me up. Three more days!!!!

 

Last night was my 5th time seeing Coheed, but the first time in 15 years that I saw them as a headliner. I don’t think I realized what a devoted fan base they have. So many people wearing CC shirts, spotted ALOT of CC tattoos, and got the vibe from the crowd around me that they traveled a long way to come.
But yeah last night definitely solidified my thought that they are one of the best live rock acts out there. Set list was perfect, only complaint is I think Ghost & Blood back to back kinda killed the momentum for a second.
Alkaline Trio were good, but their set list had some strange choices imo. I’m just a casual fan of theirs, and it seemed odd that they didn’t play some of their more popular songs (Mercy Me, Armageddon, Private Eye, We’ve Had Enough etc).

As for the turnout, it was definitely too big a venue, but they had a solid crowd. If the place holds 14k, I’d guess that there were 6,500 there. The floor was jam packed, but the bowl had a lot of section empty and roped off. My old ass was shocked to see that 3x more people chose to stand on the floor instead of having a seat lol
