i dont get the hate for nwft, the only misstep there is feathers

 

If them deviating from the story means lyrics like "No I'm not mad, lean on me man", I'll take the confusing story any day

 

Feathers is the best thing on there

 

I don't even think it's a misstep. It's really straightforward, which can be jarring coming from Good Apollo, but it is chock full of awesome classic rock worship front to back. Title track is one of my favorite songs of theirs.

 

that song fucking sucks

 

actually its not as bad as i remember but its definitely not as good as anything else on the album

 

I exhaled through my nostrils very strongly after viewing this
You’re a chorus treasure Larry

 

the title track is my favorite coheed song besides three evils

 

Feathers is sick, learning it in guitar gave me a newfound appreciation for it...it sounds so nice

 

NWFT is a great counterpart to GA1, which was all about being dark and proggy. NWFT is just there to rock out. Opening three songs and closing 3 songs rule and the stuff in the middle is mostly pretty good with the exception of Running Free which is one of their worst songs.

 

running free is mad underrated

 

mother superior is amazing imo

 

Are you doing a full album run through @sophos34 ?

 

nah i just skimmed the tracklist and put on running free because i havent heard it in a very long time, i still like it. think ill run through the album now though

 

The general quality of NWFT is lower than GA1 but it doesn't have any real missteps besides Justice In Murder which is pretty boring imo

 

At least you're wrong in a funny way.

 

also Radio Bye Bye is an underrated as all hell total slapper jam

 

when the album first came out i couldnt stand it but i love it now

 

The Running Free is probably their worst single ever IMO. It starts out so nicely and then when Claudio's voice spirals atonally up the octave for "All non-believers stand aside in fear" its just out the window. That vocal melody is so awkward in the context of the song and it never really recovers.

 

My ranking is probably in chronological order except that TCBTS is slightly higher than Afterman

 

No that's me. I'm currently on YOTBR. This one isn't bad, it's got some great songs, but some songs are terribly mediocre and a couple of them really aren't good. The title track especially irks me, especially considering how good their closers were up to this point.

 

I actually like his delivery in the verses!

 

Second Stage... > everything else

 

I will go on the record and say the best Coheed single is Ten Speed
