Last Friday, Coheed and Cambria announced details of their long awaited new album, The Unheavenly Creatures. The sprawling epic finds Coheed and Cambria returning to the conceptual narrative of The Amory Wars. Pre-orders have already launched for the album’s deeply immersive Vaxis – Act 1: The Unheavenly Creatures Limited Edition Deluxe Box Set. For more details or to order the box set, visit: www.coheedandcambria.com. Pre-orders (without tickets) for The Unheavenly Creatures standard album will begin Friday 29th June, with a new video/music from the LP premiering shortly.
Coheed and Cambria recently unveiled The Unheavenly Creatures’ 10-minute prog manifesto, “The Dark Sentencer,” which was leaked to fans by frontman Claudio Sanchez along with the opening paragraphs from the album’s aforementioned novella. “’The Dark Sentencer’ opens with prickly guitars that build into a stadium-sized thump,” noted Rolling Stone while Revolver declared, “the soaring song with its rolling guitar riff could soundtrack the montage to any intergalactic underdog story.”
