Coheed and Cambria

[Epic_Rocker]

Yes, it's a band topic. Discuss the band Coheed and Cambria. I've been messaged by a couple Coheed fans, and decided there should be a pretty good fanbase here. ^^ Sooooo discuss.

Who here is a fan? X3 I sure am. Getting the Neverender Nine Disc Children of the Fence edition. =D

 

[Flying-Emu]

They're okay, at best.

They never really stood out to me. Above mediocre, no doubt, but not worthy of me spending money on them.

 

[Psypherus]

Sounds like a whiny ***** band to me

I love Coheed and Cambria. I love how the entire discography is an epic sci-fi story, and I think that helps with the enjoyment of the music. I have seen them a few times now and they are awesome in concert. My favourite album has to be Good Apollo Volume One... especially the Willing Well songs at the end of the disc.

Neverender is a great buy. I didn't get the full 9 disc edition, but I did download the documentary and I feel that it was well worth a watch.

And to psypherus, read a little about the story of the songs and listen to it again. They do sound kind of whiny, but its all within the context of the story.

Never heard of them.

 

[Horticulture]

The story doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me...I love the music, though. I'm especially fond of Good Apollo as well.

 

[Ursus Astrorum]

I'm afraid I've only heard one of their songs.

Three guesses as to which one it is.

My question is what in the hell do they have to do with the Paleozoic era?

Love this band. So much. The Neverender: Children of the Fence Edition was amazing. I've seen them in concert a few times (including Neverender: Los Angeles), and met Claudio at Comic Con San Diego last summer. The Story is epic, and their music, especially the guitars (although Mic Todd and Chris Pennie are amazing musicians) is just incredible.

Sorry, not my thing. I just seriously can't get past the vocals of the singer, and my music collection contains some pretty strange vocals. Martin Van Drunen for example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SPvJFqASEM

 

[Stevato]

The vocals will grow on you if you give him the chance, i think their awesome. Good guitars too

If you like the music but not the vocals, check out the live Neverender CDs. His voice is a lot less falsetto live.

Good call. I just watched this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jMl1z0SmLg] and quite enjoyed it. Good guitars and the vocals sound a lot better. My current taste is for much heavier stuff but these guys ain't bad at all.

most everything does these days

 

[Random Argument Man]

Fun to play during a session of rock band. Fun to listen when you're at the gym. It's a good band.

 

[painfull2006]

D= i want that 9 disk collection thing!!

but its like $100 + if i remember correctly?

and to make it even worse, its £100 + because of the shipping!!

 

[Nossy]

I like the comic books associated with the songs.

 

[The_Deleted]

Good Appollo I'm Burning... had a great track called Wishing Well. But I think there last album resorted to the usual growly assed heard it all before vocalist and became just another band.
