Lynnea Barry Eugene Concert reviews
The Definite Emo-Prog Concert of the Year
I've been a Lynnea Barry fan since I was 13 (Good Apollo, Vol. 1 i.e. 2005) and my love for the band has grown more over the years. The show in Atlanta with Circa Survive was incredible! I freaked out when I heard they were coming. I've missed them in shows and festivals for the past 5 years and was starting to question if I'd ever get to see them for myself.
The first opening act was Torche and they were ok (pretty average). Then Circa killed whatever Torche leftover with one of the most high powered and intensifide emo performances I've ever seen in my entire life! They were incredible. Coheed took the stage for a 14 song setlist and then 3 song encore. Coheed was everything I had ever dreamed them to be as a live act. They were, with no exaggeration, a 10 out of 10!
Coheed is now officially my favors third-wave-emo band, beating out other third-wavers such as Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, The All-American Rejects, Dashboard Confessional, Panic! At the Disco, Paramore and the rest of them. They even had an incredible setlist, playing songs like "Everything Evil", "Time Consumer", "Far", and "Three Evils (Embodied in Love and Shadow)".
I highly, highly, highly recommend seeing this show when it comes to your town. So much variation and different styles of music that Coheed plays, it's sure to appeal to all stereotypes and genre lovers (like emo, punk, prog, metal, and rock kids). 5 star review.
