One of my favorite memories was when Claudio opened with a 6 song acoustic set and Iron Fist. Definitely need more acoustic stuff from these guys!
Domino and Evagria are two of their absolute best songs in general so Ascension does have that going for them
Yeah i found afterman to have quite a bit of filler but also some great stuff. I was playing around with a single album playlist 1. Sentry 2. Hard Sell 3. Mothers of Men 4. Evagria (holy hell do i like this song) 5. Gravitys union 6. Away we go 7. Domino (love how this song starts, would fit good as track 1 too) 8. Dark Side of Me 9. 2's my favorite 1
I've always loved Descension, it's probably my favourite Coheed album but I've never been able to get into Ascension much at all.
Yeah. Post IKS I had only heard Welcome Home and Suffering. Thats it. I did like SSTB and IKS alot back then so i'm not sure how the band fell off my radar but they did. Glad my buddy sent me over Liars Club so it gave me a chance to get back into them.
yeah, those two are better than anything on descension IMO. Those two are probably in my top five post IKS songs (granted after only a week of listening).
As an admittedly "new" fan post IKS. Top five post IKS songs: 1. Welcome Home 2. Great Sentencer 3. Evagria 4. No world for tomorrow 5. Domino Tear this list to pieces fellas. Also consider I heard it all at roughly the same time.
Post IKS? Most of the songs would come from GA:1, but I'll give one from each album: 1. Willing Well III: Apollo II: the Telling Truth 2. No World for Tomorrow 3. Gravity's Union 4. Evagria the Faithful 5. The Dark Sentencer
Post IKS top 5.... Intriguing. No World For Tomorrow The Gutter The Suffering Evagria The Faithful Apollo II
Post-IKS five in no order: Domino Number City Sentencer The Gutter Ten Speed Edit: Maybe swap out Number City for Sentry
Black Sunday wouldn't make my list, but shoutout to that song, one of the few they've put out recently with a abnormal structure.
Love Protocol and Apollo I are skyrocketing up my list. Havent heard a lot of chatter for Once Upon Your Dead Body. Really digging that one too. I think GA is inching forward as my favorite post IKS....though i'm sure thats not a very hot take lol.
