They aren’t an accompaniment. Some of the albums came out first. They also can be regarded on their own merits. Claudio has stated over and over that he was too shy to write about himself straight forward so he wrote about his life, experiences, thoughts through his characters. This song in particular is about the breakup with his girlfriend who he thought was done for good, then later became his wife, Chandra. It is easier to understand the meanings of some of the songs if your read the comics.

Coheed and Cambria is legitimately one of THE most unique bands in existence EVER. They tell a legit full length story throughout all of their albums and songs from comics made by the lead singer. It takes a lot of patience and hours to listen to every record to get the full story experience but it’s so incredibly worth it. I have every single album and song and it’s just so amazing every time I go back to any of their records. “Toys” and “Everything Evil” are 2 of my absolute favorites. They are just so dam good. From what I understand they get a lot of inspiration from bands like Queen and Kiss. They are a concept band and I highly recommend them to everyone although I do understand it’s hard for some ppl to get “into” them.

I love Coheed to death, my absolute favorite band of all time, but I wouldn't call them metal. I can agree on prog, but really they're more like prog lite most of the time. But one fascinating thing about them is how they merge so many different influences and styles together in a way that no one can fully agree on their genre. I've heard them called metal, prog rock, hard rock, pop rock, post hardcore, emo . . . Really, I think they're an amalgamation of all of that, but mostly I'd put them under the umbrella of prog rock.

And you didn't even see that Claudio was playing with his guitar behind his back at one point. He's phenomenal. They're phenomenal. And this song in particular literally brings me back to life whenever I'm in the depths of depression (just like today).

This song is easily in the top 10 greatest songs of all time. It's an absolute masterpiece.

Important to recognize their live performances are a separate entity to their studio albums. Their albums are meticulously crafted almost like a cinematic soundtrack due to how the songs actually came about in the first place, whereas the live performances are more rock-out-oriented. Their songs are based off a running story called The Amory Wars that the band has made. There is a graphic novels series that serves as accompaniment to each and every song, which is why the lyrics are so specific. Absolutely a creative powerhouse of a band.

This album, unlike the others, tells the story from the perspective of the author, known as The Writer, and the ways in which his life and personal demons affect his telling of the Amory Wars narrative. This entire album is amazing. You should give it a listen. Check out the graphic novel as well. I think you would be impressed.

From what I remember, Claudio was heavily inspired by Iron Maiden and Rush (among many others). The lyrics are a lyricization of his graphic novels, as others have said, which are a kind of sci-fi story with gorgeous, dark, and sometimes unsettling art.

Dude I was thinking the same thing like he was impressed at the "punk rock" part and I was like oh boy just wait.

Dude, I love this reaction. This was me many years ago. I wish I could hear them for the first time again.

Coheed & Cambria songs are epic odysseys. I'm happy I'm able to go on this journey of discovery with you.

Adding to the rest of the recommends, the pavilion. Tremendous song. The music is based on the singers comic lore/world. It’s a deep dive. Solid albums and top tier musicality from every member.

Oh how I wish I could listening to them for the first time all over again. Love them so much. Going to see them for the 4th time later on this year.😍

Damn near every single Cohered album is a masterpiece. Like you can hit random on their discography and it'll be a guaranteed banger. I'd say start at their first album and just enjoy the ride. Welcome Home, Child of the Fence.

Welcome, friend, to Heaven's Fence. Personally, I love their double album The Afterman, and the variety of sound it gives is breathtaking. Try out "Domino the Destitute", "Evagria the Faithful", "Gravity's Union", and "Number City".

Claudio Sanchez is a great story writer and an amazing musician. C & C are one of my favorite bands. Their albums tell an ongoing story of Coheed and Cambria. I would say listen in order, but you'd have your hands full. Check out In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth.

I love it when someone listens to prog and they try and pin it down in a genre. Mrlboyd, welcome to the glorisness that is progressive metal my dude.

I discovered Coheed and Cambria back in 2007, so a few albums in. I haven't stopped listening to them since. Year of the Rainbow was lacking a bit IMO, but all of the other Amory Wars / Keywork albums have been amazing.

It started with "A Favor House Atlantic" for me, many moons ago, on an actual radio. And since then, years later a deep dive into the album's. Epics. And good for working out too.

Same here man. A Favour House Atlantic on the local "modern rock" station back in the day.

Next Coheed you should try: Delirium Trigger (Live at the Starland ballroom)

Dude, so music is most definitely a weapon. Once you step outside of one genre, into multiple genres of music, mentality gets expanded exponentially, and you just gained a new follower from this video alone. Welcome to the family of music. lmao

OMG when he said "I need to take a mental break for a second" with the guitar solo had me ROFL! Yeah everyone has to do that on their first time hearing this amazing masterpiece of the dueling guitar solos.

One of my favorites of theirs is In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth 3. Should definitely check that one out. One of my top 5 bands for sure.

Being a die hard Coheed fan.. this is amazing and I feel what you felt every time I listen to this song!!

There's so many comments i don't know if anyone has mentioned it but a lot of coheeds music correlates with their Amory War comics which are PHENOMENAL! If you do choose to read the comics and then listen to certain songs again you'll get so much more out of them. This is my favorite band ever. I'm glad you have finally discovered and enjoy them!! Loved the video ❤

Yesss Coheed & Cambria is my favorite band! You gotta check out some more of their stuff. Welcome Home is one of their most “commercial” songs, if that makes sense.

Amazing live band! Seen them twice. They really bring down the house. This song is their closing/ encore song. Every time. With the guitar too!

Had to log in to show respect to this man that respecting Coheed!!

Saw them perform this song as an encore in Nashville last month. I lost my fucking shit when Claudio busted out the double necker for this song! They were so tight live. I can't wait to see them again!

I think I can speak for all of us when I say do a Coheed and Cambria deep dive… every song is A+, you will not be disappointed by any of them

There's a whole comic series that tells the story of their first several albums

Bruh just listen to all of their stuff honestly. Pure gold

A while back, Coheed released Neverender, a series of live shows in NYC where they played each of their first four albums front to back. The Good Apollo I show, which has this song and a 17 minute jam on The Final Cut is probably one of the best live music documents out there. It was recorded during the period where they had Chris Pennie from Dillinger Escape Plan as their drummer.

I remember this so perfectly. I was a huge dillinger escape fan and as Im also a drummer I was really excited to see what Chris would add to Coheed.

9:23 That drummer is hitting 8 beats on the kick per measure, including the off-beats before and after the snare. Yeah, he's busting ass.

The lead singer also performs an acoustic version of their song Atlas in his house (it's awesome). It was named for his son.

That is a truly beautiful song.

I love when your videos pop up in my feed. It takes me back when I first heard these songs. Sometimes I take this music for granted and forget how amazing it is. I am talking about Coheed and music in general. Thank you.

Bro, seeing you ENJOY this, piece by piece, especially when the vocals kicked in; brought me so much joy. Thank you so much for making this video.

"I'm offended!" \m/ Someone has excellent taste, and yes, they do have a Led Zeppelin sound to them. This song in particular, does remind you of "Kashmir," which P Diddy remixed with Jimmy Page and made the song "Come With Me" for the "Godzilla" soundtrack.

I used to be so into Coheed, they were everything man. It's so cool to see them on here! Dude talk about a live show... I've seen a great many live bands and they're at least top 5, idgaf. They were transcendent. Im so happy you loved this! They've got an incredible catalogue, plenty to feed your head

What's all this "used to" nonsense?! Come back to the fence, brother! The Vaxis series is just getting going 😀

Watching someone fall in love with Coheed and Cambria in all their glory is one of my favorite things. That was just great

I'm 31 and I was introduced to Coheed by my first bf that hung himself when I was 16.... have read their graphic novels and listened to very album... they are musical GENIUSES and amazing storytellers. 🖤🖤🖤

They were on a break for years and came back with this mind blowing album... Killer.

They're a mix of mainly prog rock (especially this album onwards) emo, post punk and metal. There's not many songs that sound like them because they borrow influence from so many different genres of rock music and include loads of nods to its mainstream history (Led Zepellin, Rush, Queen, Dio) and it's fringes (Post hardcore, emo and punk). The rest of the album that this song is from (Good Apollo) is very heavily concept based, and some of the songs are really dense with references to a wider science fiction story (basically this song is from the PoV of the God of the world sung about in the previous albums, who is both God and also a guy in New Mexico writing the story while losing his mind because his girlfriend walked out. At one point the satanic ghost of his stolen bike comes back to haunt him, telling him that he has to kill off one of the main characters in the story because she's based on his girlfriend who is definitely cheating on him anyway. It's both very tongue in cheek (a line "You say a lot of things, and how does that work? You're a bicycle!" is sung) and weirdly dark. If you liked this, I'd recommend a lot of stuff from The Afterman double album - but most noted (for me) is Gravity's Union, Domino the Destitute and The Afterman title track. The album's story is much easier to grasp from the lyrics, and most of the songs are self contained narratives about specific events and people whose lives the main character experiences while... erm... journeying through a cosmic life force that holds the solar system together. All this isn't to say they're a novelty band, far from it. They aim to make fun music but all the songs are written based on real ideas and feelings that are then filtered through into the story.

This is probably the most succinct overview of this band as your gonna get. 👍

This song was featured in the animated movie "9". That was my first intro to them and just adore them!

I love that you appreciate so much of the stuff I've loved. It's crazy to watch someone watch these things for the first time. I love it. ❤

This album actually follows a self published graphic novel. The genius of Coheed goes even deeper.

I still remember my first time hearing this. I need a cigarette after every listen

I always thought this song and maybe a couple others actually had a very Trans-Siberian Orchestra type of feel, minus the Christmas Carols. But this one’s riffs are similar to one of the carols they do I just cannot think of which one for the life of me.

He also played the double neck SG like Page did on stairway love a few times.

“You seem to take premise to all of these songs” is a reference to the fan base who obsessively deconstruct their songs to further understand the sci fi story of the saga

Na, that doesn't even make sense. Good Apollo 1 is essentially a breakup album. When he says that, he's talking about Chondra (the premise), because it was the real-life turmoil of the relationship between Chondra and Claudio that fueled the writing of the album.

No, it’s a follow up to Wake up, asking for his wife back. Obviously she didn’t come back lol. This album is mainly songs about when they split

I'm really glad you enjoyed this! They are easily my favorite band of all time and I love seeing people discover them

I've been watching your video's for a while. I love the range of music you're open to. Glad to see another music lover do their thing! Enjoy!
