    Source on Mothers of Men? I know he doesn't like Crossing the Frame unfortunately, which is a bummer because it's perfect and one of their very best songs

    I forget where exactly he said it. It was during the Afterman might have been the documentary talking about the demos or something that he wasn't thrilled with it.
    I'll have to dig around to try and verify.

    Looking still, I totally forgot to add Elf Tower to that list.
    But, I barely count that as it's a b-side and not "official".

    ...and here I thought I was playing it safe calling out Mothers and THS but leaving Vic the Butcher out of it... which honestly kinda falls into the same camp. :crylaugh:

    I can't find it. I'll strike that from the record but I will leave the case open pending further investigation.

    I swear I remember him saying it and it was something about the song almost getting cut from the record.

    I'm all about Claudio's melodies on Mothers of Men. Plus the chorus.

    Fuck

    Apollo I The Writing Writer: the chorus of this song gets me so god damn hyped. It's literally just giberish but the refrain of "goodnight, tonight I'm Burning Star IV" is so cool and gets me extremely pumped.

    God Send Conspirator: really smooth sounding song. That guitar progression is infectious and the way the song morphs and snakes it's way through it's different parts is so well crafted.

    The Crowing: similar to GSC, this song feels like a 3 act play in one song. It just shifts through these different tempos and that fucking bridge/outro might be my singular favorite moment in any Coheed song

    Everything Evil: maybe the darkest song Coheed has ever written, on an album that has songs like Delirium Trigger and 33 no less. The guitars dueling throughout the track gives it this great atmosphere and the chorus comes in and let's out all this energy for just a moment and then it goes back to this atmospheric dueling lead guitars. Brilliant

    The Velourium Camper I: the grooviest song in their catalog probably. Has a latin/jazz feel to it with some interesting percussion and guitars imitating horns. Claudio is a master at making such catchy earworm melodies especially when it comes to verses. The whole song is a head-bobber.

    re:VC I

    it takes a lot of talent to channel Carlos Santana through emo sensibilities and come up with something that is not absolutely horrible

    Claudio actually makes it sound p decent

    IMO the production on The Afterman holds it back some. Was just thinking how Sentry is great and has a lot of similarities on paper to the poppy SSTB/IKS stuff I love, but the production is so compressed and Breaking Benjamin-y that it takes something away.

    there isn't a proper word for the setting sun.

    Does anyone have the acoustic IKS-demos? Had them on an old hard drive, but can't find them.

    EDIT: Never mind. Thanks slsk.

    This thread made me turn on SSTB and god I haven't listened to this since middle school but I still love it a lot.

    Second Stage is still so good. I'm finally coming around to No World for Tomorrow and embracing the 80s rock vibe of it all.
