Welcome Home
I discovered Coheed and Cambria while playing their tracks on Rockband and from the moment I heard them, I knew I had to hear more from these guys ! With a progressive metal sound ranging from Rush meets Metallica meets Pink Floyd, you would guess that their sound would pretty much like Dream Theater, but no ! I don't know why but there's also something quite reggae in the style reminiscent of The Police. Enough to say that they are one of the most original band I've heard in a while.
Not only they do "concept albums" but they are a "concept band" as all their songs are inspired by a storyline and comic book adaptation from guitarist and singer Claudio Sanchez.Welcome Home, Ten Speed (Of God's Blood & Burial) and A Favor House Atlantic are great tracks to listen to, but I can't but put on a smile when I see a song title like 2113 knowing that even if they try to deny their Rush influence, they can't really !
Personal picks:
Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness; No World For Tomorrow; In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3
