Been a big fan of Coheed for some time now, did not like No World for Tomorow as much as the previous releases, but it’s still great compared to much of shit you hear today.

Well, we all know from Rock Band that Welcome Home is an awesome song. It brings me a lot of joy when you talk bout House Atlantic, which is one of my favourite songs by Coheed. Saw them last year when they played in Sweden.

One track that would be ridiculously fun to play is handsdown The Crowing, witch is a truly epic song.

Anyways, sorry for my bad english (snowed in in Sweden). Great pick!

Awesome pick, Joe. I was ecstatic when they released this one as DLC. My favorite C&C tunes are those that come from this kind of tuneful riffage place (similar to tunes like The Running Free, and The Hound).

Oh, it’s definitely over the top, in many ways. But this is one of those bands that I just never seem to get tired of. It’s my go-to writing music when nothing else seems to do the trick. (Supplanting Quicksand in that role, a band that’s somewhat less over-the-top.)

I downloaded The Running Free, and while I like the song to listen to, it didn’t have that same amazing rush to play in RB that Welcome Home did (the first 1000 times or so). I keep thinking about picking up A Favor House Atlantic, but every time I’m on the purchase screen I think “my friends would rather just play Welcome Home anyway.”

As for the band in general, I go back and forth between really digging their stuff and feeling its over the top. My wife thinks Claudio’s hair puts all other rocker hair to shame and once mentioned it should go solo and start its own band.
