r/coheed's Song of the Day #42: Gravemakers & Gunslingers
Gravemakers & Gunslingers is badass. Goddamn it's cool. This is the song I kept coming back to on this album when I originally bought it. The guitar just fucking slays. It's so fun to rock out to. You can bounce to the verses and headbang to the solo. The middle 8(specifically the "Oh christ will you bury my body/Let's fuck out the weasel's hole") is a bit meh, but the rest of the song is spot on great.
The Fiction- Stand-off between major characters. I'd guess Claudio and Mayo?
The Real- This has to refer to some crazy fight or something like Vic the Butcher type business. I can't imagine Claudio being that pissed at people in his life that he's close to to write something as angry as this.
The Part- I love the "We'll keep marching to the top of this tower" bit. Turn that shit up to eleven, son.
