NWFT is far, far from excellent but still has some amazing jams. Black Rainbow is garbage

I like this

Quote:

“In the past,” he continues,” I’ve always had a predetermined idea of what the story was going to be when I approached the songs. With ‘The Afterman’ being a new story within the (“The Amory Wars”) arc, I allowed the events of my life to drive the concept, and therefore opened up the songwriting to a fuller degree.”n

Saying I am excited would be a huge understatement. So ready for this.

Preferred Black Rainbow over NWFT personally

Overly excited about the new albums anyway

[Protested Hero]

Updated the original post. They're touring with The Dear Hunter, not Deerhunter. Check out the Coheed date on http://www.thepalladium.net/events.html. Shows a poster of the tour.

Not sure what to think about this news after their last effort.

I'm glad Eppard is back at the very least, the band seemed to just have better ideas and more creativity back when he was around
