Additional notes
Album Notes: This fourth album from the NY State progressive emo band is the follow-up to 2005's 'Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV Vol.1' and is the fifth and final chapter in their epic space opera 'The Amory Wars' (the prequel is yet to come). Featuring more experimental instrumentation and more personal, emotional lyrics than before, the album was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Shadows Fall, Rush, Velvet Revolver) and includes work by drummers Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters) and Chris Pennie (ex-Dillinger Escape Plan).
