There's a lot to be said for continuity and high concept, and Coheed and Cambria have invented an elaborate geeky parallel sci-fi world that spread over four CDs. If you follow the story line, it unfolds like some punk Harry Potter series; equally ambitious and didactic and almost as tightly written as the Moody Blues' "Days of Future Passed." You can also listen to each of the albums without a thought about the story and marvel at the musicianship, the intricately layered guitars, Claudio Sanchez's overwrought and rather pinched vocals and the sheer imagination displayed by these four musicians whose idiosyncratic emo seamlessly flows into prog rock. Epic, surreal, bigger than life, and utterly unlike anything you've heard in decades--even Geddy Lee expounding on free will. -- Jaan UhelszkiCustomer Reviews:
The 'musically stunted mans Dream Theater'!.......2007-07-26
If Lord of the Rings was put in a blender with Led Zeplin..........2007-07-17
Were this album really succeds is in it's great stroyline. The artwork of the album as well as the music relays a sense of epic-ness. You truly will not understand the depth of this Cd until you've heard it first-hand. Buy this CD I could not have been more pleased. In the great words of Apollo I and II, tonight the night on Burning Star IV...
You also may want to check out the Special Edition of the album. The Special Edition comes with a bonus DVD.
a modern experience I'll never forget.......2007-07-09
I characterize this album more as heavy metal or progressive metal, even a litle bit of alt rock, but it stays a little apart from prog, even when it has certain characteristics of the genre.
The composition of each track is simple superb, delicate, heavy and well thought. Lisetn well, EVERY track is incredible and outstanding, one of the few album you don't have to skip any track; Welcome Home, Ten Speed (Of God Blood And Burial), the four fragments of The Willing Well (specially part 4), The Suffering and Wake Up are extremelly potent tracks that show every characteristic of the album, including soft ballads (until half of the album I never imagined a soft track), rythmical and confortable tracks like The Suffering, heavy, potential tracks with escapist sounds like Welcome Home and Ten Speed, the most likely prog songs like the fragments of The Willnig Well, and so on, each track is different from the other one. The moods of the CD are quite difficult to identify; I quite agree with those reviewers who characterize this album mainly EMO, and though it has many characteristics of EMO (wich I still do not think is a defined or even real genre) it also assimilates alt rock, prog, heavy metal, and so on; within the moods the songs are very different among each other but I can say their moods are agressive, hard, soft, constantly changing, experimental and a certain level of complexity.
Among the artists the guitar of Travis Stever is the best feature in the album, he's such a talented guitarrist, Claudio Sanchez vocals are very melodic and nice to hear but it isn't a voice such talented and trained but stunning as well, Josh Eppard drums are one of those instruments that in every song you listen to them carefully, and Michael Todd bass can be heard, you don't know how it bothers me not to be able to hear a bass in a song, but he makes it sound incredible.
Viewed as a concept album, its a little weird and even a little dumb as a concept album, I trully know that they are trying to make five albums about Teh Amory Wars but it's obvious that Coheed And Cambria would have a lot more credit and much better critics if it weren't for this detail.
In conclussion this band demonstrate among a world full of pitiful new music how still it can be excellent compositions written, if they only take their time, any musician can bring back the flame of music, good music, and the CD is a masterpiece, my sincere recommendations to everyone who appreciates good music.
Alan Dean Foster Meets Rush!.......2007-05-25
Great Album.......2007-05-09
The reviewer below is more interested in the album art, if thats your concern stick with cereal boxes or bazooka joe wrappers, this is rock n' roll. He also claims "sub par musicianship", which is an amazingly naive statement by someone who must know little about that which they speak. Grab a guitar and write tunes anywhere near this level. Sub par my a**. These guys are at the top of their game.

as if the album could get any worse: voila, the censored version.......2006-10-06
Just a small warning for the edited version.......2006-02-18
This is a direct quote taken from the Willing Well IV: The Final Cut: "Marked in your words I'm the joke, I'm the bastard"
Correct lyrics yes, what do you notice though? The word bastard is still left in the song and not edited out, let's look a little deeper at a quote from the same song.
"You're a selfish little _____ A selfish little _______ If I had my way I'd _______ your face in the ______."
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Why? Why leave in the profanity and cut out words that don't need censoring? Very little of the bad language is edited from this CD, but an abundance of words like: Die, Cut, Crush, Door, Kill, whore, have been removed so I don't reccomend buying the edited version. If you want this edited, you'll have to open the songs up on Audacity and do it yourself.
A Masterpiece!.......2006-01-23
A vocal spectacle!.......2005-10-27
Here are my thoughts on all the songs:
Keeping the blade: A classy touch Leads nicely into always and never
Always & Never:Cute vocals by Janris Sanchez the ladies love it. Very acoustic, this it the lowest I have heard Claudio sing. The last line shatters the mood and leads into the more violent
Welcome Home:There's a video for this one too. the rythm is amazing and Claudio is playing gut busting Santana style solos on a double neck gibson and harmonizing like no other
Ten speed of god's blood and burial:
If you liked 3 evils you will love this
Crossing the frame:
This one isn't really wowing, but apparently has buttloads of signifigance in the story.
Appolo 1:
pure genus it's like faint of hearts
Once upon your dead body:
Blood red summer all over again love it!
Wake up:
filler but hey they can afford it
The suffering:
There's a video
The song we have all been waitig for. This is favor house on frickin' steroids! features uncle birmy's dirty foot choir (blood red summer). the only song mixed by another dude. "you may be invited but you're not coming in" after you hear those vocals you will never have to listen to music again. It's over. There's nothing better never can be.
The Lying Lies & Dirty Secrets Of Miss Erica Court:
Long name, long lines. Soothing in every aspect
Mother May I:
I laughed at this one, it's kinda funny
Fuel for the feeding end:
"Feed little maggot..." you can't help but mosh to that. Then there's a little spanish in the background that tickles the ears pleasantly.
I- Fuel For The Feeding End
The first and last few lines are among the best in the album
III - Apollo II: The Telling Truth
Has contents from blood red summer and apollo I "Jesse bad boy" is cute and joyously melodic.
IV - The Final Cut
violence
solos that make santana die and then spin in his grave
an amazing hidden track with some nice percussion. There's a ringtone
Buy this and destroy all other music
This is it

one of the best.......2006-03-09
Worth the extra money or the re-purchase.......2005-12-14
The bonus DVD is well worth the money, and that's what I have to say! The videos for "The Suffering" and "Welcome Home" are cool enough, but all the bonus material on this DVD is awesome. The best part is the behind the scenes of the making of Good Apollo. There is some excellent funny and enlightening footage of the band as they wrote and recorded this awesome CD, and that footage in and of itself is worth the price of admission.
The Favor House Atlantic movie....um....has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen! It's really just Travis walking around to all of the other band members asking them if they think Good Apollo is going to be a good album, but it's definitely hilarious to watch the antics and everything that takes place as he goes around doing it. From Claudio singing about "incense and flowers," to Mike "wrecking" as he falls into the kitchen. For some reason there are bloopers, but the movie itself is basically a blooper of the band, and it's great.
And the animated vignettes definitely have a very epic and awesome feel to them as they place the albums songs over animated versions of Christopher Shy's amazing album artwork.
This is a very cool and worthy purchase for any and every Coheed fan.
