Coheed and Cambria - Vaxis - "Act II: A Window of the Waking Mind"

It’s all famine and feast with Coheed and Cambria. The two Afterman albums were excellent but “The Color Before the Sun”, their only release to deter from their self-created si-fi universe, was awful. 2018’s Vaxis Act 1 was a glorious return to form, but the second part sees them once again plunge into a spiral of maudlin self-replication. This is a rehash of what they have done before but just not as emotive and not as good.
