Jun 29, 2022Some of their best work. Some groovy and poppy songs that make you want to dance, followed by hard, heavy tracks with a dash of musical at the end.

Jun 29, 2022Every song on this album is a straight up banger. From the poppy songs like Comatose or Love Murder One, to the proggy tunes in Ladders Of Supremacy, Rise, and Window of the Waking mind. It's all incredible.

Jun 28, 2022After several listens I've grown to love this album more and more. It's a huge improvement over Vaxis Act I, which had some killer tracks but was also far too long for its on good. Vaxis Act II benefits from a more condensed running time and an eclectic collection of soundscapes. This has quickly become a new contender for my favourite Coheed album.

Oct 6, 2022Manage to combine prog with a more direct, pop / new wave sound and sacrifice absolutely none of their idiosyncrasies.

Jun 29, 2022A Coheed album that is very Coheed. Poppy Songs, Ballads and Face Melters. All in all a solid album.

Jun 29, 2022Such a rad album. Like that they’re still pushing the boundary and refuse to be boxed into one sound. The closer is EPIC btw. Appreciate all the intricacies in this album. Now to see them live!

Jan 3, 2023Coheed have been heavier and more forward-thinking than on Vaxis I, but they’ve never released an album with so many tracks primed to become hits. Rarely has almost an hour of sci-fi mumbo jumbo been easier on the ear.

Classic Rock MagazineJun 24, 2022The good news for casual listeners, though, is that the music works as a standalone experience. [Jun 2022, p.82]

Jun 24, 2022Ultimately, Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking Mind is stellar; it offers fresh, wildly creative terrain for the Amory Wars saga to mine going forward.
