Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness (seriously)

If you are unfamiliar with Coheed and Cambria, allow me to present the Wikipedia entry for their discography:

"The Coheed and Cambria albums have been released out of sequence in relation to The Amory Wars story arc; the last album released was the first part of the series. The first CD released was The Second Stage Turbine Blade, the second part in the series, followed by the third, In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3, and the fourth, which is split into two volumes. The first, Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness, was released in 2005, and the second, entitled Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow, was released on October 23, 2007, and is said to be the last chapter in the ongoing saga of Coheed and Cambria Kilgannon, the main characters in The Amory Wars saga."


Zounds! It's like this is not a band so much as experiment to see if you can be a rock star and still not have relations with girls. Their groupies probably roll a 20-sided die to see what sex acts they'll perform.
That said, I kinda love 'em. The lead singer sounds like Geddy Lee got kicked in the nuts, but they are a reliable source of catchy prog-metal.


This is a good song for level 13 warlocks.
