Stereo

This album has been on heavy rotation on my list of late. I have always fancy long winded albums, or rock epic/opera albums. Albums that may not have a single standout song, but instead a collection of songs that connects to one another from the first second until the end of the album. To me, that makes a great album and worth listening to.

Coheed and Cambria’s 2005 effort, Good Apollo, I’m Burning Star IV - Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness is one of them. I like their 2003’s In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3, and Good Apollo is on par with that, if not better. If you listen to the two albums back to back, you would think these albums were recorded at the same time. At least I did.

There are 2 singles released from Good Apollo, Welcome Home and The Suffering. Check out the opening minute for Welcome Home. It kicks ass. Sorta like what Metallica would have. But of course I guess you listen to the whole album to enjoy it. Better yet, pop in Silent Earth and Good Apollo back to back and enjoy the journey.
