| | IGN: Greendale 2nd Edition Review |
 | | Greendale is an epic--in a manner of speakingconcept album that not only encompasses the music on the CD and the extensive, story form liner notes, but also a long form video/movie/musical novel. |
 | | The somewhat non-linear story, mapped out by each of the songs, revolves around the Greens, who reside on the "Double E." Father Earl is a painter, Daughter Sun is a rebellious teen, Grandpa is a relic from the past, and Jed who ends up killing Carmichael, a local policeman and eventually sparks a media frenzy. |
 | | The album begins with "Falling From Above," which is driven by a skirling guitar shift that wrangles and swerves underneath Young's craggy, cracking vocals as he introduces some of the main characters from the town of Greendale. |
