  • Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow, Coheed and Cambria
    Apr 11 2024

    In this episode we discuss Coheed and Cambria's 2007 progressive/emo/metal fusion concept album with a title so long I won't write it twice. We've got soaring guitars, obscenely catchy choruses, and vaguely incomprehensible science fiction space opera lyrics sung in a piercing yet effortless tenor.

    Then, we tackle the epidemic of musician biopic movies by going through critical and audience receptions of some of the biggest names to receive the treatment.

    Also discussed: Beat Saber, Shogun, Three Body Problem, Jethro Tull, Everything But the Girl, Daft Punk, Museums, and Bicycles (I want to ride my!)
