The Prequel Album

So, is it possible that Claudio uses that as a project name for all his Coheed material before they record the finished version? If so, the song "The Echomaker", which he played at Neverender and said it was a Rosie Barbara & The Family Massacre song, will possibly be a Coheed song on the Prequel Album?

I know when a new movie is in the works they sometimes give it a way different project title so no one realizes what it is. Just curious to see what everyone thinks of this theory?

I really support this, ill look into it.
Also, did anyone else realize, that Claudios guitar talks? If you really listen to the more conceptual solos, Final Cut, Road and the Damned, On the Brink, Light and the Glass, 21:13, you can hear the instruments speaking the story. Especially in On the Brink, which is an amazing song on an amazing album, you can hear the story being played without lyrics, when the HAIL part comes in, you can picture Ryans armies attacking, and the end of the world, then it gets more peaceful, and you can picture Claudio, probably with Newo, embracing as the world ends, the music tells me it does not end happy, listen for this in the new album.

It's so true. Agreed X 1 Million.

i believe he stated that The Echomaker is a song he and chondra worked on, and rosie barbara and the family massacre was going to be their little project

[Solar]

Yeah, apparently there's a whole other story for Rosie Barbara that has nothing to do with The Amory Wars.

[slimseany66]

Any new news on the prequel? I haven't been on in like 3 days or so...

[I Robot]

I haven't heard anything.

It's killing me.

[Tommy]

soon enough

I can't find what you're talking about. I just listened to On The Brink and I swear I get chills everytime that little piano part comes in after the hails.

[dvice164]

yea that part is sick in On The Brink , i love the buildup with the drums and the keyboard right before the hails a lot more

[slimseany66]

Honestly, the buildup in On The Brink is nice, but whenever I am listening to that song I am just waiting for the guitar solos to kick in...THEN it's a real song! However, the buildup and pretty much every part of that song really reminds me of Pink Floyd, the whole slow, jazzy solo in the beginning, the soothing, slow melody followed by the hopeful chorus, then the buildup to the incredible and almost contradictory guitar solos to end the song...it just screams Floyd all over.

[Smiley]

I don't know why, but On The Brink is one of my favourite Coheed songs. Probably because I can imagine almost exactly what's going on (or what I think is going on) during the song and it makes it so powerful.

Same here. That song is the definition of epic. I wasn't sure how a song could be good enough to end The Amory Wars, but somehow Claudio pulled it off with this one. It's just such an incredible song.

My favorite Coheed song. I hope they pick up where they left off muscly from that song; despite the whole time line of the story.

[SoulfulRecover]

theyll continue to move forward musically even if they are going back to the beginning. i wouldnt be surprised if that style continued into the prequel :)

[Timinatron]

And so begins, "BAW NWFT SUCKED!" or "BAW NWFT WAS SO OVERPRODUCED!" comments.

[Redeem The Hero]

BAW NWFT IS AMAZING I LOVE IT!!!!!!

I seriously feel this way.... I like it just as much as the other albums.

I hate how it gets put down so much.

[DerekTheMagicDragun]

I do like NWFT, I just feel it's the inferior album of the four.

[slimseany66]

NWFT was great, just not as progressive as I would have liked...but still a very solid rock record...

[mackie]

Let's not get carried away with NWFT discussion bc it can happen quickly. Back to the prequel discussion please.

agreed.

i believe itll be a bit harder and more progressive like GA1 and IKS combined

[slimseany66]

Not much to talk about haha...

Just saying it's like every other big event, it dies down, builds up, dies down, and then explodes and stays on fire for a while. It'll happen soon enough.

how soon is soon enough? is that a reasonable soon? or is it like, well they ARE working very hard and it will definitely be worth the wait soon? or like soon enough being... "soon" but not in a few weeks "soon" but totally "soon" enough that by the time "soon" comes around, the "soon enough" would have been sooner than we had soon expected soon to sooney soon soon soonity sooney soon...

?

[Solar]

you're not trying hard enough.



but with the prequel album one things I've read here is the self titled name being thrown around, the more I thought about it the more I liked it. Wouldn't mind if that ended up being it.

[dvice164]

I dont think it would be bad to call it Amory Wars , does anyone think they will implicate a number in the title of the prequel album because it would have to be 1 , i just started thinking of the endless possibilities where claudio can take this ride like maybe a 2 part prequel or something , who knows , my heads exploding

[thericanbeast]

it won't be two parts. they already said so... kinda.

EDIT:

HOLY FUCK! Coheed and Cambria Prog Nation 2010!!!!

What bands are you listening to right now?

Ah, let’s see here, I listen to a little Coheed and Cambria,
