The band really evolved, but they are still and beyond doubt Coheed and Cambria. Some fans will not recognize it and call this album boring because they might not get into the new sound. Nearly every track is a hit. Especially the first half of the album (and "Pearl of Stars") is excellent or even beyond awesome. I hope really that "Guns of Summer" is a glimpse into the future of the guys. Nevertheless the album has some weak tracks and unfortunately these tracks a located near the end, where the albums of the Coheed and Cambria are usually very strong, even the somewhat disappointing "No World of tomorrow". This album just fades out. I rate this album 4 stars and compare it with "Second Stage Turbine Blade". It is really great. It offers something new and it sounds amazing. But to compared to the previous albums it lacks a real finale and a structure that keeps the different parts together. Claudio and the guys have done an excellent job, but the past shows that they can do even better. I can barely imagine the "awesomeness" of an new and more epic "In keeping Secrets of Silent Earth" with the new sound.
