Coheed and Cambria (Official Thread)

[buysoap]

I haven't seen these guys get any love in a while. Do people here still like them?

What are your thoughts on:

1. the way the story is coming out in the comics etc
2. the loss of members to the band
3. how the new album will be
4. previous albums

[buysoap]

is that a no, then?

[yourneck]

hahaha

[xmy.only.exitx]

coheed and cambria still has a bit of talent left in them.........just hope they can bring it out quickly

[I am all talk]

I don't care for them. It is painful for me to listen to them and I don't pay nearly enough attention to the story for it to matter.

[wesgemm08]

Claudio Sanchez is one of the few musical geniuses left out there in popular music

[buysoap]

1. the way the story is coming out in the comics etc
2. the loss of members to the band
3. how the new album will be
4. previous albums

uhm, well.
1. i think the comics are doing a terrible job of telling the story. they don't really make anything that much easier to understand and i always feel like somethin is left out. i usually re-read them a couple times before i fully understand what's going on and am usually dissapointed, although the art for good apollo was good.

2. i think that the loss of the members suck and will change a big part of coheed because they worked as a group for so long. but i don't neccesarily think it will be bad, i think the new album will have a possibly different style to them, or if not different, atleast the new memebers will put in their different influences into the music and make interesting results.

3. i basically said my idea for 3 in 2. but i think it will not be as dark as the last one. hoepfully it will be epic though, this story needs an "epic" ending.

4. my favorite is IKSOSE:3 and always will be because that's what got me into the band. i liked SSTB but IKSOSE:3 really caught my attention and got me to listen to them and has influenced the way i write music greatly.

[sirensiren]

second stage turbine blade ftw.

[last light]

second stage turbine blade is the only one i really like.

[Saves The Night]

i love em.

[SlightlyStoopid]

doood, if i was an inch more of a coheed freak id try to sleep with you

best answers ever

and the guitar work for iksose:3 is moslty unapp. in modern rock today

some of the most creative shit i've heard in awhile

[Saves The Night]

i like the comics but I feel they definetly leave alot out and I cant help but feel like its a money making gimmick. Also, as for the loss of members, I don't really mind, claudio is what coheed will always be anyway. The new album will probably blow all our minds in classic coheed fashion and I expect it to be better than IV, and i fucking loved IV

Storywise, sure, but the other members put just as much into the music as he does.

[RomeoAGoGo]

Band sucks.

[TouchMeDirty]

I seen them live with a7x. coheed is great live. especially when claudio plays with his teeth.

[SlightlyStoopid]

Band sucks.

well u see i know your gonna check back at this cause thats like what you do... like talk some jive about a band with a lead singer with a humungously large dilapadated afro. then leave and then come back and see the response and feel really cool well...

i disagree, and if you didn't have a S.C.I.E.N.C.E. avtr id probably bitch up a storm

deep inside is awesome after a bong rip... ay? ay?

[RomeoAGoGo]

I don't care if the dude had a mohawk or an afro or whatever, the music is just awful and his vocals make it ten times worse. I'll admit Second Stage Turbine wasn't half bad, but everything after was just pseudo-prog-pop wankery.

And yes, Deep Inside is awesome after bong rip(s).

are you seeing them at all this winter?

[RomeoAGoGo]

Nope.

I've seen them a few times.

Once with Thrice and Thursday and the other with TBS, MCR, and Senses Fail.

[Saves The Night]

Band sucks.so does your mom, but she does it for free...that makes her a whore.

And Jesus hates whores.

So through association he hates you too.

[SlightlyStoopid]

Nope.

I've seen them a few times.

I was actually talking about Incubus's sold out tour this winter, but thats cool.

[biodegradable]

uhm, well.

yeah, loosing members sucks some major balls. they are amazing- hopefully they will kick as much ass now as they did.

i agree with #4 as well. except i dont write music....

[kevowhat1!!]

Coheed kicks ass. All three albums are great. Junesong Provision, The Light & The Glass, and The Willing Well Quadrilogy take the cake. Claudio said that the new album will be darker and epic. Meesa like darker and epic.

[RomeoAGoGo]

I was actually talking about Incubus's sold out tour this winter, but thats cool.


Ohh..nope. Tickets sold out real fast. But I've seen them a few times in the past.

[monkeyboy14]

I love me some Heed. The loss of Josh and Mic is a shame but it won't affect the music too much I think. Can't wait for GAII

[This-Is-The-End]

i love coheed,
But The Prize Fighter Inferno are so amazing!
Some of the songs are just.......AHHHH

[ShortyNC]

Coheed is an amazing band, especially live. Claudio and Travis both have insane talent and its sad that they get overlooked sometimes. The new album should be as good as the last 3 so I'm not worried. I might be biased though, I do have a keywork tattoo =)

- Matt

[punk shawn]

blahh. "the second stage turbine blade" is one of my favorite cd's ever. anything they've made after that isn't that special, except the song "the crowing".

[espguitars723]

coheed is one of the best gateway bands of today. once i turned on fuse one day and saw the devil in jersey city video i knew they were great. claudios voice is amazing he sings liek the style of the guitar and changes key when nesecarry which is rare in todays music.travis stever is a good guitarist plsu lives clsoe to me lol. mic and josh have left the band but im very excited for chris penny and the other bassist the new album should be amazing

once i read one of your posts one day and knew you were a ***...

[oh_its_julio]

once i read one of your posts one day and knew you were a ***...

I couldn't get past his spelling to deciede whether or not he's an ass. But from what I see I think there's some genuine nice-ness in ESP's heart. He just needs to let it free lol

[Spewk]

i like coheed and cambria, but i dont know why "true coheed fans" hate songs like a favor house atlantic. even though they were popular, they're still good songs...

[HangsLikeHeaven]

i adore coheed. anticipating new material

[El_Jeffe]

i'm pretty on the fence about these guys. i've only checked their first two albums & some songs i really enjoy & others i'm not so big on. some of the lyrics put me off a wee bit at times

[PDon11]

The whole sci-fi storyline is really lame.

[MIKEY_HORROR]

This is one of those bands that I like.. but I have to listen to in moderation .. his voice gets to be too much after awhile... and the whole story thing is pretty lame..

I kind of like TPFI a little bit too... but same deal..I can only listen to a couple songs at a time.

[magicguitar101]

Coheed and cambria is the fuckin shit. My fav. song def. is welcome home. you just can't get any better. I like there high pitch singing. and there insane guitar.

[Dustball69]

Ive seen coheed live and its pretty gnarly stuff. I love coheeds story they tell through there music.

[duhpunk]

New album kinda sucked, but old stuff was excellent some of the best modern pop punk around.

you consider them pop punk?

[Blueskyburning]

sstb is quite good, some nice guitar work in it.

apart from that, the newer stuff is utter wank, as is all the press they recieved because of it

[a speedo model]

Great band.

Too bad shitty bands are ripping them off *cough*A06*cough*


;-)

[lew_1987]

What are your thoughts on:

1. the way the story is coming out in the comics etc
2. the loss of members to the band
3. how the new album will be
4. previous albums

1. i don't really follow the story much, and i havent seen the comics. i know a bit about the story as in who the characters are and things like that but as i said i don't follow it too much.

2. i was quite shocked, kinda glad they got their bassist back though. i can't imagine who the drummer will be, but i would be interested to hear how chris pennie fills it out, if he is indeed filling the spot

3. i really don't know. i think even more rock influence than the last album. i can't see me enjoying it much, but i'll always give it a chance

4. silent earth: 3 is better than second stage, it is more consistent. every track on silen earth is amazing, where as on second stage theres about 4 tracks that are amazing. the latest album is fairly consistent, but only one or two stand out tracks on there.

[buysoap]

Great band.

Too bad shitty bands are ripping them off *cough*A06*cough*

Oh, I get it.

[HangsLikeHeaven]

[buysoap]

So has anyone picked up that new comic? I haven't cared about Coheed in quite some time and didn't pre-order, but I was thinking about dropping by the mall on the way home from work.

[HangsLikeHeaven]

So has anyone picked up that new comic? I haven't cared about Coheed in quite some time and didn't pre-order, but I was thinking about dropping by the mall on the way home from work.

definitely consider it

[buysoap]

definitely consider it
How's the art? It looked excessively cartoony in the Amory Wars sketchbook and the stuff that was put online. Is it any good? And what songs are covered in this issue?

And please please please tell me it makes more sense than the first two SSTB comics and the Good Apollo GN?

[InsultToInjury]

Coheed are a band I can take or leave, I go through phases of listening to them loads then I don't. Seen them live a few times and they have been amazing. The new album I will definetly buy and listen to in awe as their guitar work and general musical talent of Claudio is up there with the best.

[williek311]

I didn't know they lost any memebers. Who left?

[buysoap]

I didn't know they lost any memebers. Who left?
Drummer and bass player, but bass player came back

[williek311]

Drummer and bass player, but bass player came back
Oh yeah I see that they got Dillinger Escape Plan's drummer so he should be able to fill in nicely.

[tostitos17]

this is one of the only bands i like with the lead singer as a female

[guitarhead913]

Oh yeah I see that they got Dillinger Escape Plan's drummer so he should be able to fill in nicely.




I'm wondering if it's going to be any different with the drummer from dillinger, the live show mostly, i'm not sure if he's doing any of the recording. I'm glad the bassist rejoined. I love how everyone in coheed are actually talented musicians that obviously know theory and the mechanics to write great songs, which might be why they've been such a big success.

[Of Dust and Nations]

great, great band...i watched 'the last supper' the other day. as good as it is it still doesnt capture the feeling of seeing them live...which i need to do again.

[Gumbyjag]

My favorite band of all time. About time someone made an official thread.

i dont know why "true coheed fans" hate songs like a favor house atlantic

i don't, i love that song.

And please please please tell me it makes more sense than the first two SSTB comics and the Good Apollo GN?

haha you're outta luck dude, it's even more confusing.

What are your thoughts on:
1. the way the story is coming out in the comics etc
2. the loss of members to the band
3. how the new album will be
4. previous albums

1. I can really get into the storyline but the comics do make it very confusing when it's easier to understand in Claudio's lyrics.
2. I was bummed when I heard Mike and Josh left, Mike being a great bassist and I'm glad he came back and Josh because he was the link between Co & Ca and 3. I think bringing Chris Pennie in to play drums on the album was a great decision on the band's part.
3. I think it's gonna be real riff-heavy and have a lot of emphasis on Claudio's vocals. The reason I say this is because of Nick Raskulinecz and the stuff he's produced lately (Rush, Shadows Fall) kind of falls into those catagories. Can't wait to see how the storyline turns out.
4. IKSSE:3 is my favorite but I think The Second Stage Turbine Blade was their best and I can listen to both and never get tired of them. I can't say that about GAIBS4VOFFTTEOM, it didn't do as much for me, but I still thoroughly enjoy it.

[3mpire]

What do you all think of the new song? I think it's pretty good. It took a while to get a feel for it.

I should be seeing them in Sept. (again) :)

[White Noise]

Love em, excited for there new album.

[AndyAnarchy]

Do these guys sing that awful good eyed sniper song?

If so, I have lost all respect for them.

[duhpunk]

Coheed is amazing.

[AndyAnarchy]

You like Alessana and TDWP.

You can stop talking like you have authority now.
I am entitled to an opinion. :D

I don't like that song at all, it's an awful song.

[SickOfStars]

I am entitled to an opinion. :D

I don't like that song at all, it's an awful song.

well, someone may retort and say that they think alesana is an awful band and they don't like them all.

And not to be an asshole or anything, but I don't think too many people are going to disagree.

He was trying to say that you are one to talk about music being awful when you yourself listen to bands much more maligned than Coheed and Cambria.

While I don't necessarily agree with this tactic, I'd say he knocked down the legitimacy of your argument a few steps in the eyes of most reading the thread.

[LiquorAndDick]

In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth :3 is probably my favorite song by any band yet alone Coheed.
I can't say I've tried to grasp the story behind the albums though.
That sort of thing doesn't interest me.

[Saves The Night]

I really like the new single. It is catchy as fuck.

[White Noise]

Yes its very good.

8 minutes of sing-along perfection :]

[Shatter590]

these guys fell from grace with me real fast. i worshipped them from 2003-2005, then they fell off the face of my musical map.

tho i do listen to SSTB every now and then. I love that album.

[Shatter590]

8 minutes of sing-along perfection :]

have either of you heard "The Upper Armories of the Third Deep"? Its the same song musically, but has quite a few changed lyrics.

Ha, I'm pretty much in the same boat. This year I've barely listened to them but after hearing the new single, it has definitely sparked my interest in them again.

I'd say In Keeping Secrets > Second Stage > Good Apollo imo.

[LiquorAndDick]

have either of you heard "The Upper Armories of the Third Deep"? Its the same song musically, but has quite a few changed lyrics.

I haven't but I'm interested because as much as I like the lyrics, I find the music in the song more inspirational.

[Shatter590]

I haven't but I'm interested because as much as I like the lyrics, I find the music in the song more inspirational.

i can send it to you

That would be nice if it isn't too much effort.

[3mpire]

Yeah I wouldn't mind it too. Cheers.

[Shatter590]

That would be nice if it isn't too much effort.

ill rip it to my HD, then email it to you two, most likely tomorrow afternoon. i dont have a firewire cable with me

[LiquorAndDick]

Fine by me.
Thanks again.

[Re:DEFinition]

I'm often disappointed in the sheer fact that as musicians, they are much better than they show on record, with a few exceptions. I somewhat enjoy their music.

[Saves The Night]

I really dont know why everyone hated IV...i thought it was fucking awesome...there are a few songs though that i pretend are not on the album...but over all i felt it was top notch. IKS is still their best.

[hockey0001]

Do these guys sing that awful good eyed sniper song?

If so, I have lost all respect for them.

yes, and im gonna go out on a limb and say you havent herd any other of their songs. do yourself a favor listen to delerium trigger, everything evil, the crowing, neverender, welcome home or some other of their songs and then see what you think

[hailthewarrior]

man your own jackhammers!
man your battle stations!

[Brokenhill]

I'm pretty much amazed at how epic Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness is.

It's only my first time listen all the way through.

[guitarhead913]

Contrary to many people thinking that IKSOSE:3 is their best album, i believe second stage turbine to be there best. Mostly due to everything evil, dilirium trigger, devil in jersey city, etc..

for me, coheed took me a really long time to get into. One of my friends was a coheed nut, and knew everything about the story behind the albums. Once i knew what was going on, their songs made a lot more sense and i really started to get into them. They became one of my favorite bands.

[Derekx]

A heads up for people in the LA area.
Coheed will be on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Thursday November 8.

that's pretty much what happened to me.
when I first heard them,
my music taste was a little different..
then once I started dating my friend jarrod,
who loves coheed, I listened to them alot more
and fell in love. plus, seeing um at warped was amazing.
claudio's hair kills me. =]

man your own jackhammers!
man your battle stations!
ahh soo good.
I am in love with the acoustic version of faint of hearts
and their cover of sister christian.

=]

[meliisssaaaa]

i have a lot of love for them... i'm going to see them again in philly soon. :-D

[mr chainsaw]

So I just got my no world for tomorrow preorder and what the hell...fucking cheap ass bastards...the cd packaging is nothing more than a cardboard slip case the same thickness as a promo cd with absolutely no inserts. I probably would not have preordered this if I knew I was getting crap for packing/artwork and no lyric sheet. This is just a testament to how record labels are failing to make people want to buy actual cds. Maybe they are giving up.

[SPI]

Their name is either the most clever strategy as of late or one of the worst. I refuse to listen to them because "Coheed & Cambria" sounds too much like "Dolce & Gabbana" or some other god-awful handbag. I suppose this subconsciously increases their popularity with today's awful sub 20s.

no offense, but that is the dumbest reason ive ever heard for not listening to them.

theyre named after the characters from the story. and i think its a better name than "Shabutie" would have been.

I don't mean to seem mean or whatever, but you ordered the stripped version. They sold 3 versions... stripped (which is cheaper), deluxe (which comes with a dvd, lyrics booklet, all that jazz), and a vinyl... so yeah some people just like getting the cd nothing else.

and hey I LOVE LOVE LOVE your avatar. top 5 band imo.

[doxastic]

Saw them Friday and it was Epic! I love seeing Coheed, though. They're always really good.

I agree with you completely. IKSOSE:3 is something of a disappointment, because SSTB is so good. That first record is just incredible.

[wesgemm08]

I know its all opinions, but I really can't understand how people think SSTB is a better album than IKSOSE:3... it just isnt at all

[paintingshade]

I really don't understand all these coheed fans that are die hard sstb only fans. the album is pretty good, I mean time consumer, everything evil, delirium trigger, junesong, and godsend are all solid songs. but nothing on the album is as good as the crowing, light & the glass, 2113, the willing wells... I mean common. devil in jersey is a solid single. heartshot kid disaster is ok. 33 is ok. neverender is pretty good. but no songs like completely blow me away. everything evil is nice but I think it's overrated by alot of coheed fans. I mean don't get me wrong I love it, it's as good as no world for tomorrow, but ga1 and iks are just too good for it.

[hailthewarrior]

Wait... for.... everything evil in you... comes out.

[KrispyKunt]

Anbody gonna see them at the Metroplex in Little Rock? If so pm me :)

[AP_Punk]

Ah, that username ^^^ :yuk:

[Dooner21]

Coheed was the first band i EVER saw live along with The Juliana Theory in Buffalo...

...they were soo good!

[softhands]

Saw them at Warped last year..loved it.. Claudio is the man...!

[Regards]

Saw em with Shiny Toy Guns and Jimmy Eat World.

One of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

[2941sucitta]

I only like the song on Rock Band.

[White Noise]

I wish I had kanye spamming for my band

[blackmanok]

haven't read the comics yet, but the band's awesome!

[reissgoespunk]

I wish I had kanye spamming for my band

Hahaha!

[bradnewman]

The band is good... but it seems they are releasing similiar stuff throughout their albums.

[SickOfStars]

The band is good... but it seems they are releasing similiar stuff throughout their albums.

I can almost see that with the last two albums and between 'The Suffering' and 'Blood Red Summer', but overall the sound dramatically changed. I mean, if you look at Second Stage Turbine Blade vs. No World for Tomorrow, the difference is lid-flipping. I remember nerdy little soft-hearted indie-rock kids liked Second Stage Turbine Blade. I doubt that kind of audience is even remotely into what the band's doing now... except for me

[polarbearsummer]

Your not the only one. I was a part of that soft hearted indie rock audience your talking about. Second Stage Turbine Blade is one of my favorite albums. I can't say I love NWFT. But I still love Coheed.

[polarbearsummer]

The band is good... but it seems they are releasing similiar stuff throughout their albums.

oyCkTrc0NDA

Theyve Changed Alot. And its not just the hair!

[porttheman]

still one of my favorite bands of all time

[SickOfStars]

oyCkTrc0NDA

I love that vid. The thrashing is so awkward!

[polarbearsummer]

Yea its a cool clip. Clauds vocals werent as solid as they are now. And then he goes and blames it on the monitors.

[drummertobeat]

I loved early Coheed, but they kind of lost the plot with me as it carried on. I mean, I think bands should definitely progress how they do, but I rather prefer the first two albums.

[polarbearsummer]

Yea same. It makes sense though, the way they progressed. From all the Claudio Sanchez interviews ive watched or read the one influence he seems to refrence most frequently is Maiden. And thats def come out in the Good Apollo's

[SickOfStars]

the buttrock metal on the Good Apollo records is some of the best stuff. Gravemakers/Gunslingers is great.

However, the epic-scene-music stuff is still great. The End Complete III is fantastic.

[NegativeCreep]

The band is good... but it seems they are releasing similiar stuff throughout their albums.

i would disagree. though the albums may contain similar lyrical content, the music is vastly different.

[polarbearsummer]

However, the epic-scene-music stuff is still great. The End Complete III is fantastic.

Agreed both Good Apollo's were great. I just had a problem with some of the single choice's. I was never a The Suffering fan and I can't stand Feathers. They could have picked any other song on Good Apollo Vol. II but Feathers?

[SwiftSilentDead]

"Feathers" is one of those songs that I love but I feel like I shouldn't. When I first heard it I was like "Man, this is....lame but it's so damn catchy!" It eventually became stuck in my head for months. The video for it was kind of stupid though.

[SickOfStars]

The Running Free was the best choice for a single on that record, and they drained that option first. I mean, looking at the record, there weren't many other choices for singles. While the whole record is accessible, there weren't really a whole ton of songs with that "pop-rock single" feel to them besides feathers.

Same for Apollo I. They just tried to pick the safest stuff, really.

[polarbearsummer]

Yea, I guess when I think about you're right. They pick whats safe, and usually whats safe is my least favorite. I just thought maybe they could have went with No World Tomorrow or Mother Superior. Those weren't very pop-y tracks but I still think they'd be better choices than Feathers.

And yea, their videos always suck, except for Blood Red Summer. But who cares, they're coheed.

[chipdip18]

You know how you can associate sounds with things? Yeah, i accidentally associated Coheed and Cambria with Halo 2. I only own In Keeping... and Good Apollo... and i enjoyed them, and still do occasionally. I never got the fourth album (fifth book installment or whatever) because the single seemed pretty bland to me.

I got the new album mostly to hear an end to the story, some of the songs are good, but doesn't compare to any of their previous work.

I see. Well bummer it's not as good. Oh well. Did the story end well?

[ShimmerAndSpill]

If you like the other records I still think you should get it, it has its moments. I liked the way the story ended, and the story as a whole, very interesting.

[Hainzey X]

coheed never fails to bring the epic.

This is correct.

Yeah, it's really quite the story. That guy (forgot his name...) has quite the creative mind. It's cool how he made a band and series of books out of it. One totally markets the other too, that's smart.

Haha Claudio Sanchez? (I'm a fanboy). Yeah it's a pretty good idea, I have the comic that has the first five issues pressed into a book, it's great. I got it when I saw them last August.

It's a comic book, I think it's pretty cheesy but I like it. The story is really twisted in so many ways, and it's really cool how he ties in some of the songs to the writing. But I think he has some other guy help him write it, but I'm not too sure.

I see, i see. I thought it was like a graphic novel, but maybe those are the same as comics? I don't really know haha. But it's still cool. Nice Northstar referrence too.

They originally released two issues of the second stage turbine blade which are out of print now. A graphic novel was made for GAIBSIV:Through the Eyes of Madness, which was the most confusing thing I've ever read, even with prior knowledge of what happens in that album. It was pretty much written the same as the comics, but covered the entire album. Thank you, Pollyanna is one of my all time favorites.

I see. That's pretty interesting. Sounds like he may have had a tought time getting the graphic novels off the ground if Second Stage is out of print and none for In Keeping Secrets exist haha.

Pollyanna is a great pop-punk album. Definitely one of my favorites too, especially from the first half of this decade.

He's pretty much re-writing the entire thing as The Amory Wars, there's 5 issues that I know of, I haven't really payed attention as of late, but they've only covered part of the story of The Second Stage Turbine.

Every song on Pollyanna is good, they all deliver.

Ah i see, well i'm sure that book will pay out, and probably be more reader friendly. I'm excited for the last album of the series, i really hope they pull through with the best album yet. And will they break up afterwards?

Absolutely all deliver.

The album after this one is supposed to be the prequel to the story. I'm really excited to see how that one turns out, especially since Chris Pennie will be able to record the drums on that album, I really want to see what he can do for Coheed Musically.

Yeah, i remember hearing about it being the prequel, which will be an interesting thing to hear. Oh sweet! Good drums all around.

[polarbearsummer]

reading the books while listening to the albums is alot of fun. its alot of pausing and playing but its cool when you get things in sync with the reading. the album becomes more like a soundtrack to the books.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

I'll have to try that.

[speakhandsforme]

My thoughts:

1. Claudio doesn't get enough credit for his lyrics
2. SSTB and In Keeping Secrets are great albums
3. Good Apollo I is an incredible album in all aspects
4. No World For Tomorrow was a huge disappointment

[porttheman]

I liked NWFT better then Good Apollo I.

Gotta agree with that, when Coheed put out SSTB and In Keeping Secrets you could call them a progressive rock band. With those albums they always seemed to be pushing the limits, and doing something different. Good Apollo I had its share of pop-y singles, but the rest of the album followed suit with the previous two, doing something different, keeping their own sound. NWFT, when compared to the previous three, doesn't give me that same feeling. It was just bland.

Also, anyone else feel like this tour with Slipknot is going to be a bad tour for them.

I honestly dont think so. Coheed has done some strange tours in the past(this one i believe is the strangest) but nevertheless i think alot of fans already love both slipknot and coheed. A friend of mine works at ticketmaster and when the tickets were on sale he said he saw more people with coheed sweatshirts then slipknot buyin tickets and im from Iowa too. But i guess well see eh?

really? I thought NWFT was very good.

Good Apollo I was solid for sure, but it had flow problems just about everywhere.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

I don't think they'll ever be able to top SSTB, that album is flawless.

[polarbearsummer]

I don't think they'll ever be able to top SSTB, that album is flawless.

Agreed, its too bad they had to come out with it first.

[polarbearsummer]

Btw, anyone buy that box set yet? It looks pretty cool. I like the 4 live cd's most of all. I didn't see Neverender, first semester of college kept me from ditching class to go see it. And I'll regret that for a long time. The SSTB nights must have been phenomenal (spell check?)

Well that sounds good then. I don't know, my first thought was Coheed's going to start playing Feathers or A Favor House and they'll get booed by the Slipknot fans. But its not like theyll be playing small venues, theres enough room in those arenas for booth slipknot and coheed fans, and those who like both of course.

[wesgemm08]

They already did with the second album they released.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

Eh, I'm not sure. I really like In Keeping Secrets, but SSTB is much more enjoyable for me.

[tehjakeman]

I saw people on one thread complainging about how expensive the soncert tickets where so i just said don't buy them and they flipped out how they NEEDED them i said than get a job.

yea, I understand where youre coming from. Are you planning on goin to see the show(im assuming its gonna be in your area)?

[Circa1628]

agreed, In Keeping Secrets is their best album

[polarbearsummer]

yea, I understand where youre coming from. Are you planning on goin to see the show(im assuming its gonna be in your area)?

I don't know. Prob not. I'd see it in NYC if i were to go and I don't really wanna pay the big bucks to see them in the garden. Thats my main reason the cash. It'd be cool to see them with slipknot though. I'm not a fan of their music but I think they're one of the few bands left to make it more than just a rock show, a spectacke on stage. (coheed sorta does it too, with the guillotine they did a while back, and the screen projections of the story art).

[iseeumonkey]

I really want to see Coheed live, but I HATE Slipknot. As a friend of mine has said, "I could be a member of Slipknot if I banged a shoe against a propane tank and sang in a falsetto voice".

I guess I'll have to wait...

ive seen slipknot before(went to see Dillinger Escape Plan) and as shitty as the music is.man do they put on a show. i got my ticket for xmas this year.so i have to wait til they come to iowa,but im pretty excited to see coheed as well as see what the fans will think.i believe itll be a good tour

Yea man, if I'm gonna wait for a headlining tour. I've seen em a couple of times, and it goes without saying that the shows where they headlined were much better. The set list goes more in depth than a collection of all the singles plus some extras. But I guess if its your first time seeing them it doesn't matter what they play.

[SwiftSilentDead]

I've seen Coheed once but that was at Warped. Still, it was pretty cool to see them play "Everything Evil" and "In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3" live. I really want to see them headline a show.

[TachyonEvan]

I've only seen them twice, once at Warped.

But the show I saw, they headlined (with A7X, back when they were good.)

[Circa1628]

I've seen them headline once in 05 and at Warped 04 and 07.

[TachyonEvan]

I miss when this band consumed my life.

NWFT kind of ended that.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

Their last headlining show i saw was pretty neat.

[TachyonEvan]

I want to see them again.

Not Slipknot, though.

[polarbearsummer]

I miss when this band consumed my life.

NWFT kind of ended that.

Same. Unfortunately. Just not the same as the early days. Neverender helped that a little though.

[acfrue]

Definitely agree. NWFT was really disappointing, but everything else they've done I still love.

[bombsquadjunky]

I didn't mind NWFT, although I agree that it was no Second Stage Turbine Blade. Does anyone else here read the comics?

[porttheman]

i saw coheed last night, they did a really good job. i felt bad for them though,cuz after their set people started booing them. I am from iowa though,and pretty much everyone was there for the Knot. shame

[TachyonEvan]

Why would you boo Coheed? Dumb fuckers.

[porttheman]

Why would you boo Coheed? Dumb fuckers.

yes they are. A few years back the dillinger escape plan opened for slipknot and the same thing happened.

People here go butt fucking crazy for slipknot. they dont really tour around iowa that much,so when they come to town. the maggots come running as far as the eyes can see.

[bombsquadjunky]

Why would you boo Coheed? Dumb fuckers.

Totally agree. I'd give my left nut to see Coheed. Unfortunately I have to live in fucking Vermont....

[x_earthquake_x]

Coheed is completely amazing live. I've seen them twice, once with Avenged Sevenfold and then last year with Linkin Park.

I can't imagine anyone booing their preformance, both times I saw them the crowds seemed really into it. Claudio puts on an awesome show.

[TachyonEvan]

I own both the live DVDs, and they're both impressive.

[Circa1628]

I think NWFT is underrated. IKSOSE3 is still their best though

[TachyonEvan]

NWFT just isn't very good.

It's Coheed, which means it's better than quite a bit, but I haven't listened to it ONCE since I got it except when I went track-by-track and explained the story to a friend, but even then I was like "This sucks."

[TachyonEvan]

They still blow the fuck out of so many bands.

[porttheman]

IMO i think NWFT is so much better then Eye of Madness. i didnt really connect with any of those songs as i did with NWFT. the musicianship i feel is alot better and the songs have a better lasting value the Eyes of Madness.

What? No.

FFTTEOM is not as good as the first two, but it's still waaaaaaaaaay better than NWFT. NWFT is mostly filler and feels like a rushed ending to the story.

FFTTEOM is darker, true. However, the guitars are much better. The drums are better. The songwriting is less formulaic.

I feel that Coheed, at NWFT, was at a kind of rush to get this album out and they were forced into not writing the best songs they could.

Too say that NWFT is mostly filler compared to FFTTEOM is almost jokeable.

i agree that NWFT was a rush album,but if you read up on past interviews with claudio he stats that every album but FFTTEOM was a rush album. they took WAYYYYY to long on those songs. i read in an interview that in making FFTTEOM they would write the song,then go back and do a step by step tweak job. they never did that with any other album.

Songs that don't need to be on NWFT:

Feathers
Gravemakers
Fall Of House Atlantic
Radio Bye Bye
most of On The Brink, considering it's exactly like WW4 with "Hail!"s.

i agree with Feathers and On the Brink but the others should stay.

songs that didnt need to be on FFTTEOM:

All The Willing Well's...god,they were just bad..i was very disappointed in coheed for recording those songs. No last value whatsoever. Another thing i love about coheed that made me upset with NWFT and FFTTEOM were the last songs..they are suppose to be amazing and very epic and The Final Cut and On The Brink were major flops.

[TachyonEvan]

Pretty much.

But the rest of FFTTEOM is better than the rest of NWFT.

[porttheman]

Pretty much.

But the rest of FFTTEOM is better than the rest of NWFT.

Thats your opinion and mine is NWFT is better then FFTTEOM

[TachyonEvan]

I like SSTB best lately.

I am so excited for that box set to come out, especially as you said to see SSTB and IKSOSE3, since they are my two favorite albums, and (IMO) the best two they've done. It also seems like they put a lot of work into rehearsing for it too, which is cool since it means they weren't just throwing together this as a huge publicity stunt.

Yeah i read the comics, it helps the reader/listener understand the story so much, like if i didn't read the comics, i would have never known that Ten Speed is a demon bike.

[polarbearsummer]

I dont think any of the albums can be classified as bad coheed albums. I personally like the albums in order of release, starting with sstb. The band evolved from a small progressive band on an indie label to a alternative rock powerhouse on a major label with a widespread audience. The sound on the albums fits accordingly.

[DJAP101]

So many people hate them that I almost get embarrassed saying that they're one of my favs=) I love them but think the comics kind confuse me more then anything...IV foeva!

Oh yeah the comics rock. I just need the final issue of the Second Stage and I've got em all (for now at least since I'm hoping they make more). And that whole thing was weird. The FFTTEOM comic was so ridiculous it took me three reads through to actually fully understand it. But they are so awesome.
"What does it look like? I'm a fucking Bicycle."

I dont think any of the albums can be classified as bad coheed albums. I personally like the albums in order of release, starting with sstb. The band evolved from a small progressive band on an indie label to a alternative rock powerhouse on a major label with a widespread audience. The sound on the albums fits accordingly.

I agree with this, and a lot of people don't like their last two, but FFTTEOM was a real turning point in the storyline, so while it may not be wholly appreciated, it is a necessity. And also, I feel like even though they have changed their style a bit, it wasn't to become more commercially successful, which I greatly respect.

So many people hate them that I almost get embarrassed saying that they're one of my favs=) I love them but think the comics kind confuse me more then anything...IV foeva!

The comics are so awesome, albeit confusing (as I mentioned before). I would never be ashamed to say that I like them. They're easily one of my top bands, and I have, and will continue to defend them to the death.

So stoked for my Neverender dvd set. I pre-ordered so I'm getting it autographed and get my name in the book. I went to Neverender all four nights so this will just be the icing on the cake.

You're just the most awesome person ever, you know that?


Will the Neverender set be available in stores? My friend didn't pre-order and is pissed.

I doubt it.

[bombsquadjunky]

I'm hoping they will. I don't think for a while because those things are gonna sell fast, but I think they will eventually.

Well I hope:-(

[TachyonEvan]

They'd better be.

[bombsquadjunky]

You would think that they would as it was such a momentous occasion for the band. But like I said before they'll sell fast due to all the fans who went to Neverender wanting a copy to try to spot themselves or just relive what was probably one of the most epic experiences of their lives.
I'd love to get a copy of that though, just so I can see for myself how amazing it actually was.

Coheed/Columbia would be stupid if they didnt sell the Neverender box set in stores.

I would like a box set, but Im broke as fuck. I did think no world for tomorrow sucked dick. Hopefully thats not the real ending to the story, and hopefully this prequel album will be good as fuck.
