History[edit]

Formation and Shabütie (1995–2001)[edit]

In March 1995, after the split ofClaudio SanchezandTravis Stever's band called Toxic Parents, they formed a band withNate Kelleycalled Beautiful Loser. The band featured Stever on vocals and guitar, Sanchez on guitar, Kelley on drums and Jon Carleo on bass. The group was short-lived, breaking up by June 1995 after an argument over gas money.[6]Stever left the band, and the resulting trio was named Shabütie,[7]a word taken from African tribe chants that means "naked prey" in the filmThe Naked Prey.

The band spent nearly a year experimenting with a multitude of different musical styles, includingpunk rock,indie rock,acoustic rock,funk,andheavy metal.When Carleo left the band in August 1996, Kelley recruitedMichael Toddto take his place. Todd, who was primarily a guitarist, picked up the bass specifically for Shabütie.[7][8]As Shabütie, the band wrote dozens of songs and released their first studio demoPlan to Take Over the Worldin 1999. The band also releasedThe Penelope EPin 1999, shortly after which Stever rejoined the band.

Kelley left the band during a performance in late 1999.Josh Eppard(then the drummer of his brotherJoey Eppard's band3) replaced him.[7][8]The band went on to releaseDelirium Triggerin 2000, still featuring Kelley on the drums, but listing Eppard in the liner notes.[9]

The Amory Wars,The Second Stage Turbine Blade,andIn Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3(2001–2004)[edit]

"The Keywork", a commonly used logo for the band, symbolizes the energy stream among the planets in Coheed and Cambria's fictional universe.

Several songs that appeared onDelirium Triggerwere adapted into a series of science fiction comics written by Claudio Sanchez calledThe Bag.On.Line Adventures,which was later renamedThe Amory Wars.Sanchez's side project originally developed during a 1998 trip to Paris, where the band members decided to rename themselves Coheed and Cambria, named after two of the story's protagonists, and adopted the concept story as a theme that would unify their future albums.[10]This side project also created Coheed's official logo, the Keywork, a symbol for the planetary alignment of theAmory Warsuniverse.[11]

In February 2002 the band released its first studio albumThe Second Stage Turbine Bladeafter signing withEqual Vision Records.[12]Influenced by thepost-hardcoregroupAt The Drive In,[13]the band's first release also featured a guest appearance fromDr. Knowof the hardcore-punk bandBad Brainsas well as the revised "Delirium Trigger", "33", and "Junesong Provision" from theDelirium TriggerEP. The band also released its first single and music video, "Devil in Jersey City".[13][14]The band eventually played several tour dates in the United States and Japan, as well as a brief stint on the 2002Vans Warped Tour.In August 2002, Coheed and Cambria started working with manager Blaze James.[10]

Their most commercially successful album to date,Good Apollo Volume Onehas sold almost 1 million copies and peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard charts.[19][20]The album represented a departure from their previous melodicpost-hardcoreinfluenced rock toward aprogressive rocksound. The single "Welcome Home"was described by John A. Hanson as" a heavily Led Zeppelin-influenced metal tune ".[21]The band supported the album with American and European tours accompanied byThe Blood Brothers,Circa Survive,Dredg,Head Automatica,andAvenged Sevenfold,tours culminating in the release of the exclusive iTunes EPKerrang!/XFM UK Acoustic Sessionsand their second live DVDThe Last Supper: Live at Hammerstein Ballroom.[22]

Departures andNo World for Tomorrow(2006–2009)[edit]

Claudio Sanchez released an album from his side-projectThe Prize Fighter Infernoin October 2006 titledMy Brother's Blood Machine.Like Coheed and Cambria's albums, it was a concept album, related to Coheed and Cambria via a character that appears in both stories: Jesse, "The Prize Fighter Inferno". The album was intended to be a prequel to the Coheed and Cambria albums.[23]Claudio says "when we were called Shabütie, the initial idea for Coheed and Cambria was to be an acoustic/electronic side project. So I guess The Prize Fighter Inferno is kind of the original idea for Coheed and Cambria."[24]

In early November 2006, Josh Eppard and Michael Todd left the band for personal reasons, forcing Matt Williams and the band's drum technician, Michael Petrak, to fill out temporarily the band's rhythm section for a handful of shows.[25]In April 2007, bassist Michael Todd rejoined Coheed and Cambria, and the band entered the Los Angeles-based studio with new producerNick Raskulinecz.The following JuneChris Pennie,formerly of theDillinger Escape Plan,joined Coheed and Cambria as its drummer, but due to contractual restrictions with his previous record label, Pennie did not appear on the band's fourth release.[2]Instead,Foo FightersdrummerTaylor Hawkinsrecorded the drums, making use of several ideas Pennie had previously written in correspondence with Sanchez.[2]

The band's fourth studio album, and second release withColumbia Records,Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow,was released in October 2007, debuting at number 6 on the Billboard charts.[26]The album's first single, "The Running Free", was released to radio in August 2007. The second single was "Feathers" with a video starringRena Riffel.[27]The band continued touring, headlining portions of the 2007Warped Tour,[28]a tour supported byClutchandThe Fall of Troy,and opened forLinkin Park's 25-city U.S. tour, which forced the cancellation of Coheed and Cambria's performances on Australia'sSoundwave Festival.[29][30]In addition to the return of Todd on bass and new drummer Pennie, the band also recruited a touring keyboardist and backup vocalists for its live performances.[31]

In November 2007, their song "Welcome Home"was included as a playable track in the video gameRock Band,[32]and a cover of their song "Ten Speed (of God's Blood & Burial)"was later made available as a download for Rock Band. In 2009 two more songs were made available for download," The Running Free "and" A Favor House Atlantic ", for the video game Rock Band,[33]later joined in 2010 by the songs "Guns of Summer", "Here We Are Juggernaut" and "The Broken".[34]

Coheed and Cambria finished recording their fifth studio albumYear of the Black Rainbowin 2009. It is a prequel to their conceptual story, having events that take place beforeThe Second Stage Turbine Blade.[45]A novel was released to accompany the album co-written by Sanchez andPeter David.[46]The album was released on April 13, 2010, in both a standard, iTunes special, and deluxe edition (with the deluxe edition including theYear of the Black Rainbownovel and a special Year of the Black Rainbow "black card" that provided the holder early access to some Coheed shows. The concept of a special card with this privilege would carry over into future album releases).

"The Broken", "Guns of Summer" and "Here We Are Juggernaut" were released on the Rock Band music store on April 20, 2010.[47]

Sanchez stated that with the Coheed and Cambria saga completely chronicled on the group's first five albums, he was contemplating the direction of future releases. "I've thought of telling stories of the future and stories of the past, maybe getting involved more in the story of Sirius Amory (sic – Sirius Amory in the stories), the fellow who figured out the value of the Keywork," he said. "Or even stories that kind of parallel the one that we’re telling. It’s kind of up in the air. I’ve started writing music for that next record, and I'm kind of hoping that maybe in doing that it's going to tell me which one to do.”[48]

On July 10, 2011, bassist Michael Todd was arrested and taken into police custody inAttleboro, Massachusetts,on charges of armed robbery.[49]Wes Stylesacted as a temporary replacement for the remaining dates.[50]On August 4, 2011, Todd and the band parted ways by mutual decision.[51][52]

In November 2011, Chris Pennie departed the band by mutual agreement due to creative differences.[56]Two weeks later, Pennie was replaced by the band's former drummerJosh Eppard,[57]and the following April the band announced via social media that their replacement bassist would be Zach Cooper, previously of the band AM to AM.

It was produced by Coheed and Cambria, with Michael Birnbaum and Chris Bittner. 'The Afterman' tells the story of Sirius Amory, the namesake of the concept, as he explores the energy source holding together the Keywork (the 78 worlds in whichThe Amory Warsis set) and finds that it is in fact an afterlife for departed souls.[60]In the same month, Claudio announced atSan Diego Comic ConthatEntourageproducersMark Wahlbergand Stephen Levinson would be developing his comic book seriesThe Amory Warsinto a full-length live action film.[61]In September 2019, Sanchez revealed that Wahlberg's agreement to produce the project had expired.[62]

Musical style and influences[edit]

Sanchez has several times stated he is envious of his father's era of music, and that the band is influenced by groups of that era, such asLed Zeppelin,Pink Floyd,The Police,Queen,andThin Lizzy.Apart from these roots, Sanchez also acknowledges an eclectic array of influences, includingpost-hardcoregroupAt the Drive-In,andheavy metalpioneersIron Maiden.[13][82][83]One of the biggest influences for Coheed and Cambria was alternative metal bandFaith No More.Before they established the band, Sanchez and Stever got hold of its 1992 recordAngel Dust,that Stever claimed it "showed [them] the light", and they would later listen to their next recordsKing for a DayandAlbum of the Yearcontinually as well. Stever also stated "There are many more songs that we have done through the years that have had a guitar part or vocal melody that I will say, ‘Oh shit - there's that Faith No More influence’.”[84]Contrary to rumors, bassist Michael Todd said the band was not influenced bySagaand that he had never heard of that group.[85]Many draw similarities betweenRushand Coheed and Cambria,[86][87]but Josh Eppard stated in an interview that neither he nor the other band members were "big" Rush fans.[87]Claudio later stated he began to listen more critically to Rush's albums after the comparisons.[88]Influences ofpunk rockhave been cited as well, especially theMisfitsandBad Brains.Dr. Know ofBad Brainsplays a guitar solo on the track "Time Consumer" fromSecond Stage Turbine Blade.Sanchez and Stever's early band Toxic Parents drew many similarities fromJane's Addictionand Misfits.[89]Sanchez has stated thatThe Amory Wars,the story on which Coheed and Cambria base its lyrics, has similarities to other stories, especially to theStar Warstrilogy. For example, when the characterCoheedreturns home to his wife Cambria, she says, "Somehow I’ve always known," a line thatPrincess Leiasaid toLuke SkywalkerinReturn of the Jedi.[90][91]
