Is Coheed & Cambria the second coming of Rush, or what? |
|
I caught a half-hour or so of them on FUSE last night. Besides the whopping "Kashmir" stomp of "Welcome Home", they just sound like they're channeling Rush through a Yes filter for the most part. They've got the whole package, too. The Geddy Lee sounding lead singer, the science-fiction theme a-la "2112", the long-winded and pretentious song titles.....
I guess I kinda dig 'em, but BOY, they wear their influences on their sleeves.
Side note, although I was interested enough to watch the show, my wife was literally driven out of the room by them. She actually put on some headphones with the latest NIN. I wonder what that says...
Anyone else get these guys? I'm not sold yet.

They don't seem to take themselves as seriously as Rush did....
They are great musicians as well....

2. Maybe. Regardless - they get on my last nerve. |

I don't know what it is and I'm sure they're good musicians; can't stand 'em. :yoiks:
