I gotta give it a meh. The song isn't bad, just they keep going down this slightly more metal road, I'd prefer if they tried to mix this with something from Second Stage which was not as metal, if you will. I'll have to give the album a chance when it comes out though since they still have so much potential.

Found the song ok, but not overwhelmingly good. I liked the chorus with the Dredg like "high chord shred progression" a la Bug Eyes for example.

I really like the song. Very Good Apollo I oriented I think. A SSTB throwback would be nice though.

Song seems as though it'll be one of the interlude type songs. Still quite good though.

One of the interlude type songs? Sorry man but I really don't think so.

Also a SSTB throwback would be fantastic, but I think everyone needs to give this a second listen, I think the song is pretty damn amazing.

I liked the song a lot, I like it going towards a heavier more metal sound. Seems his voice is a lot lower, unlike the fake higher pitch of NWFT.

I have a lot of hope for this album.

The Broken is decent. We can all agree on that. I doubt Coheed will release one of their really great tracks from YotBR this early. I'll give em the benefit of the doubt. I've got high hopes regardless...

I hope they stay away from the NWFT sound. It was a very stagnant metal/rock sounding album and is their weakest for sure. Good Apollo I was extremely progressive, each track being unique and defined. If the new album is anything like Good Apollo I then, yes, I'm going to cum all over myself.

Unimpressive...

I still say it's a shame that Chris Pennie went from such a technically-gifted and passionate group to this garbage that hides behind ridiculous story lines and "progressive" vocals.

I'm sorry you feel that way. C&C are probably one of the most refreshing artists around. They never fail to deliver something new and original. I love DEP as well but these bands are in no way similar. Pennie's drums seem to be pretty solid with Coheed considering the Neverender performances and the new single. Dillinger hasn't put out anything too remarkable since Miss Machine (Ire Works was sub-par at best).

C&C trumps DEP any day in my book.

Album will PROBABLY be really good TBH. I had my doubts but Im sure they recognized some of the problems with vol 2. Sounds more like either vol 1 or good vol 2 to me. Also people bitching about "havent changed their sound" Coheed has already changed their sound more than most other bands ever do.

What theyre releasing today is not even close to the same as what they released earlier in SSTB. Maybe we like their sound now, why does it need to change? They're pretty different from any other band around. The reason some of us are excited is that Vol 1 was an awesome album, vol 2 had a similar sound but a drop in quality. This song has a similar sound as well, but is back up there with vol 1's quality.

I think they're a band that likes to progress with each album and it's pretty obvious they've done that. Granted GA2 was far less impressive than GA1 but it still seemed to have a different sound (for better or worse). So I think it's a safe assumption that they will continue to progress with the new album. So people upset it doesn't sound like SSTB or IKS should really not be that surprised because they're not going to regress to their older sounds.

I just find it funny you'll say Coheed hasn't changed their sound and then not realise that exact thought is true for a ton of bands you do like which in turn makes your point quite weak.

I'm pretty sure no one cums over any of the bands I listen to as much as people on this site lose it over Coheed And Cambria either, and some bands don't need to tweak their sounds to remain good. Coheed has always had a particular "sound" as a band that, while effective, is getting predictable, which is at odds with their status as a so-called "progressive" band. Like I said it's not bad, but they're settling into a role where they can churn out albums like NWFT that tread water on the backs of older records and they have more talent than that. Pennie being in the band should by all purposes open new musical doors for them and hopefully won't be underused.

The tone of his vocals sound similar to that on No World, can't tell if i like it or not but it sounds as if Claudio is putting alot more strain on his vocals. Hope the rest of the album is a little more memorable.

Dillinger fucking owns Coheed though in originality and creativity. As well as being about 923857 times more tech then them.

Actually I just listened to the other tracks available on their MySpace and The Broken was one of the weakest ones on it. I tried to hate it but Mother Superior is just a damn good song (I know it has nothing to do with the new album, just sayin)

Chris Pennie was easily the most technically impressive member of DEP and seeing as he's now part of Coheed that'd make you wrong.

Nah i'm pretty sure Ben is the most technically impressive member of DEP, figuring he wrote the majority of all there songs. Chris merely wrote drums to fit over there timings. Which im pretty sure he does a pretty mediocre job in Coheed since most of Coheed's song structure's are really nothing out of the box at all.

If you listen to anything he accomplished on Calculating Infinity/Miss Machine, you would come to the conclusion being in DEP required alot more skill, concentration, and overall accuracy, which im ashamed to say he doesn't show the same traits in Coheed

I'm surprised just how much this song has grown on me over the past day. I'm actually really digging it now. Maybe it was just something clicked while trying to tab out the bass line, but whatever the case I'm in to it.

Wrong, Pennie and Weinman shared the songwriting in almost 50/50 capacity.

Chris merely wrote drums to fit over there timings.

Wrong again, he contributed to the songwriting and he was the member responsible for all the programming featured on CI and MM.

he does a pretty mediocre job in Coheed since most of Coheed's song structure's are really nothing out of the box at all.


LOL, be wrong some more it'll help. And for the record he's only recorded one song with them so far.

which im ashamed to say he doesn't show the same traits in Coheed


He's recorded 1, count it 1 song with them. And of course he's not going to play in the same manner, it's a completely different style of music, but he's still the most impressive musician out of any member of either band.

Are you guys faggots or faggots? Song rules, album might rule, might suck dick. Let's wait and see.

"Coheed has always had a particular "sound" as a band that, while effective, is getting predictable"

Bitch have you even heard their stuff outside of GA1 and GA2? As much as I like Dan, sometimes people listen to a band that has a unique sound to them, and associate all their songs/albums with that sound, and assume all their songs/albums sound the same because they have that sound without really focusing on what else they are doing. My friend (who actually has good taste in music usually) once asked me after I recommended El Cielo, something along the lines of "Isn't that the album where they accidentally just played the same song 15 times in a row?".

What is really true is that they have a unique sound, but within that sound they are mixing things up better than a lot of bands out there.

Also I want to listen to Coheed and Cambria because they sound like Coheed and Cambria. Predictable my ass, that's the lamest argument I've ever heard. Of course they sound like what you thought the next Coheed album would sound like. It's not like we listen to an album and say "WELL, HEARD THAT SOUND, BETTER BRING SOME NEW SHIT NEXT TIME." We say "Damn that was good, can't wait until these guys release some more stuff." because we would like to hear new songs that carry a similar sound to what we already like.

If I wanted to hear something completely different, I would listen to a band that is completely different.

As far as I'm concerned, this song is as different as it needs to be, and kicks some serious ass. Sure it has a sound that can be compared to their last 2 albums, but the song itself does not sound like any of the songs that are on their last 2 albums. BTW, not a fanboy, thought GA2 sucked and lost some faith. Song restored quite a bit.

Bitch I've been a fan of them since they were nobodys playing the scrub stage at 2003's Warped Tour while bands like Poison The Well and Glassjaw were getting main stage. I also saw them when they toured for IKSOSE opening for Thursday and Thrice, so kindly STFU. Coheed never changed their sound THAT drastically other than getting better production and refining themselves on their instruments, which mainly applies to Claudio and Travis, since Mick didn't get really effective until NWFT, in my opinion. Like I said, THEY HAVE AN EFFECTIVE SOUND OF THEIR OWN, it just gets boring/repetitive at times and I really hope Pennie brings some new musical avenues to the group to freshen it up.
