I actually really enjoy the running free but it’s def because of the nostalgia associated with my freshmen year of high school
It’s the harmony whenever the final chorus kicks back in full band for me. Cheesy? Maybe. Do I love it? Fuck yea I do
I will always take pride in Coheed being a band from around my area, a former coworker in a previous job actually did wiring for Claudio's place years back. He said Claudio was absolutely fascinated with wanting to know how all the wiring worked and followed him around with a guitar around his neck lmao, also was super friendly and wanting to help when he could
Can’t comprehend the idea of someone putting NWFT at the bottom of their discography. Incredible record. And the title track rules.
I'm pretty surprised the band still hasn't put out a repress of Second Stage that is widely available everywhere. What gives?!
I meant that I hope Shoulders isn't the upcoming album's intro track, since Dark Sentencer was the first track released from Vaxis.
Fortress was a MOMENT for our friend group. I'm the only one who remotely likes prog among my friends, but that album transcended everything and we all *still* love it. Being a teenager in Toronto when that album dropped was something else.
New video is fun. AMA beforehand didn't have any pertinent album info. Hopefully something drops soon to coincide with the video.
Still blows my mind how gracefully these guys age. This is essentially the same video as The Running Free from 14 years ago but they've all dropped 40 pounds It occurred to me too that the band relies less on Claudio's "helium vocals" than they did earlier in their career, he still obviously has the range but he tends to reign it in more in service of the tunes now, which I think has made them a more accessible band to the masses
Shoulders has hit #37 on the Rock Chart. That's their highest charting song since The Running Free in 2008. Amazing!
