I know this is a 2-year-old video but this is one of my favorite bands of all time. And the reason he enunciates his words so much is because all of the albums are interconnected and tell a story. And there's also graphic novels to accompany the music and tell the story. My husband and I named our daughter Cambria and was born to their song "in keeping secrets" 😊✌️ and what's even more crazier is that these guys know nothing about theory 😮
Coheed & Cambria is a deep well. This song is a radio favorite but doesn't quite capture how... odd... the group can be in their more adventurous songs. My father once described them as Rush's modern inheritors, which I think is fairly accurate.
Mike Patton / Faith No More was a huge influence on Claudio's song writing and sound as well... and while I still genuinely appreciate this song, it's simply a spark when held to the brilliant inferno that is their larger catalog.
@@SophiaAphrodite while I agree that compared to their contemporaries this song certainly qualifies as odd, comparing it to rest of that album and some of their newer stuff, it's far more palatable for radio listeners than say the Willing Well stuff from the same album.
Coheed definitely deserves a 5 BY. They have such a diverse catalogue. Pop songs, metal songs, prog rock, beautiful ballads ..whatever you want. They get overlooked way too often.
Their first album is amazing (Delirium Trigger, Neverender) but yeah I can definitely agree that their albums are so diverse that they're deserving of a 5 BY.
@@Nimbus3000 yea true - me personally? i love the old stuff, first few albums etc.. but there is a lot to be said for the later stuff as well. Afterman albums were insanely good, hell even Color before the Sun had good songs. Black Rainbow with Chris Pennie is a departure for sure but it had some amazing tracks as well. I havent really listened to Vaxis much but ive liked what ive heard.
I never quite liked how you had to read the comics to understand the references in the lyrics and vice versa. Also a lot of his lyrics just don't make sense, almost as if they're inside jokes just for a few that people just go with but don't really know the meaning behind
This band is the reason I started playing guitar and drums almost 14 years ago, they will forever be my favourite band and biggest musical inspiration by far!
PLEASE, PLEASE do more Coheed! They have so many amazing songs that span so many different types of music. Ballads, heavy, fun/more poppy songs, progressive rock-leaning songs. They have everything, and they’re all amazing.
Fantastic reaction! I'm glad you enjoyed Welcome Home, and I'd love to see you react to some more Coheed! They currently have nine albums spanning the last 20 years, so this song (while great, and one of their most popular) is only really a snippet of their wider sound, so I think there would definitely be more you might enjoy! I found your channel less than a week ago when one of your vids was on my recommended, and since then I've been jumping back when I've had the time because I really enjoyed the analysis and opinions you were offering - not to mention you just have an extremely cool and fun energy that's entertaining to watch. And wouldn't you know, I come back to your channel again only to see you've posted a vid on one of my ALL TIME favourite bands!! That sold me on subscribing! Gonna check out more of your older vids, but I look forward to everything you have planned going forward :)
Legit my hometime hero band. Being from Rockland NY seeing them locally and evolve into what they are now makes me extremely happy and proud. The 1st show i saw of theirs the ticket was Co&Ca (Cobalt and Cadmium) I cant believe i lost that ticket smh
They played this song in Kalamazoo MI close to 10 years ago with a lightening storm in the background. We had to wait over an hour for the rain to pass, but once we got back into it…good lordy, what a way to end the show. Powerful song; powerful backdrop. An experience I’ll never forget
The only way to truly understand Coheed & Cambria is to personally sit down and digest each of their albums. Their sound has evolved so organically over the years and each album has its own distinct flavor. I don’t know how else to explain them to people
OMMMMGGGGG Coheed is the best band everrr I never thought I'd get to see you react to them! (best being subjective, of course, but they are my favorite band)
Ive actually met and talked with Josh Eppard (the drummer). He is a very down to earth guy. We had a nice conversation about baseball right after a show and he did a great job of not letting me get too starstruck
I don't think later fans of the band realize how hard Welcome Home hit the first time it was ever dropped. They had a countdown on what was basically a single page website, then once it ran out, the site switched to the "IV" and it started playing. Kids today may think that sounds lame, but back then it was cool as hell. They did the same for IKSSE3 but something about GA1 really solidified this band for me. Not to mention getting the record the friday before it came out officially. Man, those were some great times in my life!
I myself have never made a single comment on UA-cam, but I will for this. I agree coheed deserves a 5by. Look into the history of the band and the progression. This band has a cult following much like dance Gavin dance. They are worth checking out. The band even has a live acappella version of “the gutter” if you want to see just how good Claudio’s vocals are. Much respect for what you do and I hope this comment finds you well.
Travis Stever, the guitarist who did the singing at the very end, also wrote the lyrics for their song "Ten Speed of God's Blood and Burial" and delivers background vocals often. He's had other bands including Fire Deuce and Davenport Cabinet where you can hear him sing.
Ten Speed is great, but I'm pretty sure Claudio wrote the lyrics. That is what Wikipedia says, anyway, and it makes more sense because they tie in directly with the storyline and from what I gather the rest of the band didn't care so much about the story at the time.
You really should listen to this whole album in order, if I recall correctly they basically wrote it like a comic book and made the songs fit the story. Very artistic group.
The Amory Wars. I believe there's 4 albums, which I agree, they should all be listened to in consecutive order. There are singles on the albums, but consecutive really tells the story. Then there's the prequel story told in 2 albums..then there's that one that well...they needed to experiment
Very cool. My daughter was born around the same time as his son. He released the song "Atlas", made me cry like a baby. At the time, I was traveling a lot for work. I'm from a few towns over from where this band originated and have been listening and seeing them live since 2000/2001.
As a casual spelunker of music theory, I thank you. This was so easy to soak up and great information. The drums when he goes off beat is something I always loved but couldn't figure what had changed in my headphones. I would love a weekly online class/sesh
Claudio has the rare talent of being able to sing live. So many bands and people can’t even get close to how it sounds on the album. It sounds a little different, but he is spot on with how it was recorded
Coheed has been my favorite band since I was in high school, way back in 03. This is one of those bands you can enjoy at a surface level, or get lost in the lore. With the exception of one album, every album takes place in a large sci-fi universe. Early on, there were comic books that helped build upon the story. Now, it’s graphic novels. Every song tells another part of the story. Getting deeper into the story really does it for me, and really cements this band as my favorite band of all time. If you do another coheed song, I cast my vote for In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 ua-cam.com/video/1uYsu13XGgM/v-deo.html In second place is a band you’ve come to enjoy: dance Gavin dance; and in third place is one I don’t believe you’ve reacted to yet: the dear hunter. I’d love to see a reaction to one of TDH’s songs, A Night on the Town. What a musical, cinematic masterpiece ua-cam.com/video/BVjcsgrDErE/v-deo.html
@music shed - Coheed aside, I’d LOVE to see a reaction to The Dear Hunter song linked above. That song…whew. Legitimately a musical masterpiece. The lyrics tell a story, of course, but the music makes you FEEL that story and amplifies it 10 fold. It’s such an enjoyable journey; 10 minutes of emotional roller coaster. From wonder, to sadness, to excitement and exhilaration, to contentment. A masterful use of the medium that I can’t recommend enough. I know I’m just one dude, giving you one recommendation in a sea of review requests, but I truly think you’ll get a kick out of this one.
Coheed has been my favorite band since I was 15 back in 2003. Please cover more of them because their discography is so diverse, you can get a different flavor with each song
I was on a trip in Cuba 15 year ago. After 2 weeks without TV I was in a Hotel in Santiago de Cuba. I just found MTV on the channel list and for the first time the song "The Suffering" was on. This guys are simply amazing! One of the best band ever!
Saw him alone live with Thrice, and Thursday. He sat on the stage playing acoustic because I believe the band wasn’t feeling well, and he rocked that acoustic guitar!
Saw them with Thursday as well way back before I even knew who they were. Was not lucky enough to see Thrice as well. It was a weird card for them. Also played with Norma Jean and Scars of Tomorrow.
Saw this same lineup! Portland ME, oddly saw Norma Jean in Portland around the same time as well. Loved old Thrice and Thursday (waiting is one of my favorite albums of all time)
The drummer Josh is also a great rapper who goes by "Werd Science". Great stuff all around. I was blown away in 2002 when Coheed played their first tour. Been addicted ever since.
Claudio's range is even higher. I don't know where it stopped at but I know the first handful of albums were concept albums telling a story and he would sing from the pov of three different characters, with different voices and ranges for them.
Even tho this was live you need to see them in concert when they feed off the crowd as well. They go even harder, this is probably the best band I've seen live and everytime i am in Awe at what they do. Love Coheed soo much.
BRO youre not gonna see this but youre reaction to literally everything i love. This is so dope idk whos been reccomending you for the past few months but this is it i love it lmao
My favorite band. I’ve seen them three times. All their albums are about a big sci-fi story that’s also in the comic series the singer/guitarist writes.
Please please explore more of this band!! They are spectacular and have such a range in their catalog. Some great next picks might be The Crowing, In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth III, Gravity’s Union, or Sentry the Defiant. Such an amazing band with a really interesting story woven into most of their albums.
YAAAAS! you finally did Coheed! so glad you did this. Welcome home is by far their most popular song, thanks to the radio and the movie industry but they have some way more intricate music. They are my fav fav favorite band in the world. Claudio is a musical genius, and the band is simply epic! Would be cool to see you do more of their stuff. They are worth doing a 5by for sure!!! Thanks for you insight and reaction as always David. BTW all their albums except for one are concept albums portraying their comic book series, called, The Amory Wars!
Right on, Teach! Yeah, I first heard Coheed in 2005, while I was getting a half-sleeve tattoo on a Saturday Morning. I stopped the artist and said, "OMG! WHo is this band? They are fantastic". So they turned it up louder than it already was, and we enjoyed this CD twice-over for the next few hours. Claudio is insanely great at what he does. You nailed when you talked about his style and presentation. He is the most honest performer I've ever seen. That is what makes him so damn good. From his songwriting, production and phrasing, to his look, vocals, and guitar playing. He is 100% the real deal...and I can feel it! If you ever get a chance to see them live, do so!!!
Speaking on Claudio’s hair: I’ve seen them live several times and this man with, in the middle of a song and with one hand, go from epic main to perfect pony tail in .3 seconds.
These guys were amazing live. Claudio’s hair is even more epic in person. They have also done graphic novels to go along with their albums. The whole thing is a storyline. Phenomenal stuff. Just massively creative. Also, the drummer’s brother, Joey Eppard, has a band named 3. They have an album called Wake Pig which is just epic. You’d love it. Take a dive!!
Hey David idk of you read these but thank you for your channel. I work for FedEx delivery and you help me get through the day. I listen to your videos and to your breakdown of so many songs. I love music so much and I sing a little as well and I appreciate all you do. Please keep it up. Also would love to see you do some songs from Neck Deep.
Coheed is one of my top 5 bands and Welcome Home live never disappoints. Seeing it live, they tend to take different directions, including a dueling guitars thing at times.
I've seen them twice live. They are a really good show to see. When they first came out a lot of people were surprised with Claudio's voice as a lot of the first singles he was singing in a falsetto.
A friend of mine recommended this band to be back in the early 2000's. I walked down to my local record store and picked up a copy of IKSSE3. One day I was on the bus on my way to band practice and was listening to it in my headphones. As soon as I was less then halfway through the opening title track my mind was absolutely shattered. They have been one of my favorite bands ever since and I even have the Keywork logo tattooed on my upper back.
As a long time Coheed and Cambria fan, all I got to say that their music is a beautiful and deep well. So much variety in styles and depth of lyrics. The whole team is just so talented. Each album is a treat in it's own right.
My brother and I seen them twice. I love their music! One of their tours was with Taking Back Sunday 2018. The last song of Coheed’s set was about to start. The lights were dimmed red and we could see Claudio with the double neck and we KNEW what song was coming~ I would love to go see them again!
I know this is a 2-year-old video but this is one of my favorite bands of all time. And the reason he enunciates his words so much is because all of the albums are interconnected and tell a story. And there's also graphic novels to accompany the music and tell the story.

Coheed & Cambria is a deep well. This song is a radio favorite but doesn't quite capture how... odd... the group can be in their more adventurous songs. My father once described them as Rush's modern inheritors, which I think is fairly accurate.
Rush is accurate. I've also heard them likened to a modern day Queensryche
Its like "What if Rush wrote a comic book, then based multiple albums on the lore of the comic"
Mike Patton / Faith No More was a huge influence on Claudio's song writing and sound as well... and while I still genuinely appreciate this song, it's simply a spark when held to the brilliant inferno that is their larger catalog.
A song about his relationship with his wife and it's dynamics in such a poetic way isn't "odd"?
@@SophiaAphrodite while I agree that compared to their contemporaries this song certainly qualifies as odd, comparing it to rest of that album and some of their newer stuff, it's far more palatable for radio listeners than say the Willing Well stuff from the same album.
When I met Claudio, he let me smell his hair. Haven't picked my nose since that day.
#claudioboogers
Omg!!! I'll bet that was heaven!!!
Coheed definitely deserves a 5 BY. They have such a diverse catalogue. Pop songs, metal songs, prog rock, beautiful ballads ..whatever you want. They get overlooked way too often.

I havent really listened to Vaxis much but ive liked what ive heard.
This exactly what I was going to request. It would be great to do five songs from five different albums.
Agreed!
They're a trip, man. The lore behind the music is deep. Claudio is a bit of a renaissance man.
"Who are the Renaissance Men?"
More than a bit -- he's a filmmaker and author and a genuinely decent person
@@krobuskoffee3354 It says the Renaissance Men are coming to town soon, like ASAP
@@krobuskoffee3354 Smiling Friends type beat
I never quite liked how you had to read the comics to understand the references in the lyrics and vice versa. Also a lot of his lyrics just don't make sense, almost as if they're inside jokes just for a few that people just go with but don't really know the meaning behind
Last time I came this early, I became a dad
I could have made a reaction video to this comment alone
That's Fuckin Fantastic Sir! We'll played 🤣
Literally just lost it at this comment. Way too funny 😂😂😂
You sir are hilarious! Thank you for that, 😂
💀
Claudio is such a badass. Yes, that hair, we know, yes.
As a fairly dedicated “Shed head” I’ve been waiting for Coheed for awhile now. Thanks!
My ass is so baked, I thought you said “Head Shed”🤣
This is my favorite band ever, ive seen this live many times I have Coheed tattoos and I still got chills watching that intro again.
This band is the reason I started playing guitar and drums almost 14 years ago, they will forever be my favourite band and biggest musical inspiration by far!
PLEASE, PLEASE do more Coheed! They have so many amazing songs that span so many different types of music. Ballads, heavy, fun/more poppy songs, progressive rock-leaning songs. They have everything, and they’re all amazing.

@@MusicShed umm you mean 'Welcome Home'! New here, huge Coheed fan, you have to watch/listen to: In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3
I appreciate that every time you unpause, the track is rewound like 5 seconds. And man this song is legendary. The crown jewel of a magnum opus album.
Legit my hometime hero band. Being from Rockland NY seeing them locally and evolve into what they are now makes me extremely happy and proud.

GOOD LORDY!
Best show I’ve ever been to!
The only way to truly understand Coheed & Cambria is to personally sit down and digest each of their albums. Their sound has evolved so organically over the years and each album has its own distinct flavor.
I don’t know how else to explain them to people
You cant describe coheed, thats what makes them great.
You can’t explain them to people
Yeah that’s how listening to music works
also, we can understand their songs by claudio's graphic novels which is originally the stories of his songs and lyrics of some of their songs.
I lol'd really hard at "he's trying to really make his lyrics intelligible" just knowing the entire catalog
Alright now do Window of the Waking Mind, you’ll love that one even more
OMMMMGGGGG Coheed is the best band everrr I never thought I'd get to see you react to them! (best being subjective, of course, but they are my favorite band)
No, you're right they're the best
They're objectively the best don't worry
I suggested them and didn't expect he'd react made my day
YEs they are the best. No question!!!!!
Ive actually met and talked with Josh Eppard (the drummer). He is a very down to earth guy. We had a nice conversation about baseball right after a show and he did a great job of not letting me get too starstruck
He really is a great dude.
But he’s a Mets fan 🤣
@@JG-fp7hm and im a braves fan so we ribbed on each other about it. It was cool
@@kayfabebreaker2981 as am I 🤣🤣 soo chop on 🤷🏻♂️
he's also a great rapper. check out weerd science.
I loved that you zeroed in on his singing right away. Vocal legend.
This is another band that needs a 5by their style is so diverse that a 5by would be amazing
I agree! I've already made a recommendation for one of the next videos if he does a 5by!
What does 5BY mean?
In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 is my absolute favorite from Coheed give it a listen if you can.
I agree! Unheavenly Creatures is a real close second for me now. Used to be no world for tomorrow.
I got to see them live when this album was first popping off and it was incredible!
Yessss!!!!
Agreed… the Crowing gets me fucking going lol
Edit: that corny rhyme was completely unintentional 🤦♂️
My favorite

@@SevenDevils88 lol ill never forget sweating it out hoping my shitty dsl connection didn't make the song buffer 😅
"The Crowing" by them is a masterpiece.
I've always said the last minute of The Crowing is the best 60 seconds of music in history.
That and Final Cut.
Dog.

One of the most underrated bands from the 2000s. The band has matured with each album and still recording GEMS today!!

I really hope you've sat down and listened to more of them since this video. They have so much depth to their discography
Love your energy for this reaction!
OMGGGG YESSS WE NEED MORE COHEED!
You should check out some of their acoustic videos. I absolutely love Coheed, they've got some absolutely incredible songs.
YAAAAS! you finally did Coheed! so glad you did this. Welcome home is by far their most popular song, thanks to the radio and the movie industry but they have some way more intricate music. They are my fav fav favorite band in the world. Claudio is a musical genius, and the band is simply epic! Would be cool to see you do more of their stuff. They are worth doing a 5by for sure!!! Thanks for you insight and reaction as always David. BTW all their albums except for one are concept albums portraying their comic book series, called, The Amory Wars!
I thoroughly enjoyed your reactions. I love when people with knowledge do reactions to music. You earned a sub from me! Looking forward to more!
Right on, Teach! Yeah, I first heard Coheed in 2005, while I was getting a half-sleeve tattoo on a Saturday Morning. I stopped the artist and said, "OMG! WHo is this band? They are fantastic". So they turned it up louder than it already was, and we enjoyed this CD twice-over for the next few hours. Claudio is insanely great at what he does. You nailed when you talked about his style and presentation. He is the most honest performer I've ever seen. That is what makes him so damn good. From his songwriting, production and phrasing, to his look, vocals, and guitar playing. He is 100% the real deal...and I can feel it! If you ever get a chance to see them live, do so!!!
Brilliant band.
Speaking on Claudio’s hair: I’ve seen them live several times and this man with, in the middle of a song and with one hand, go from epic main to perfect pony tail in .3 seconds.
So great watching people react to and find coheed for the first time.
You GOTTA check out some more Coheed stuff. They’re fantastic and I loved your opinions of this! Hyped to see more in the future!
I love seeing coheed live Claudio busted a string and literally shredded a solo while restringing the damn guitar dudes are beast
Hopped on to write it again: "Please react to Spiritbox - The Mara Effect"
I'll second this. It's a good one.
Coheed are awesome! I'd love to see you explore some more of their music.
DGD fan boy here…. What you are talking about with the vocals and the enunciating reminds me so much of watching Jon Mess so much, so true
I love this band, and this is the song that I found them through in 2014, been a big fan since.
Been listening to co and ca for a long time.... Excellent reaction. You get it from the technical standpoint, and i love that.
These guys were amazing live. Claudio’s hair is even more epic in person.
They have also done graphic novels to go along with their albums. The whole thing is a storyline. Phenomenal stuff. Just massively creative.
Also, the drummer’s brother, Joey Eppard, has a band named 3. They have an album called Wake Pig which is just epic. You’d love it. Take a dive!!
Supposed to go see them live on theb18th of Sept. My girl bought vip tickets
They became my favorite band when I met them 12-13 years ago ... I still love them the same. They are amazing
Hey David idk of you read these but thank you for your channel. I work for FedEx delivery and you help me get through the day. I listen to your videos and to your breakdown of so many songs. I love music so much and I sing a little as well and I appreciate all you do. Please keep it up. Also would love to see you do some songs from Neck Deep.
Right on!!
Coheed is one of my top 5 bands and Welcome Home live never disappoints. Seeing it live, they tend to take different directions, including a dueling guitars thing at times.
I've seen them twice live. They are a really good show to see. When they first came out a lot of people were surprised with Claudio's voice as a lot of the first singles he was singing in a falsetto.
I am so stoked you're listening to Co&Ca.
Easily my favorite band of all time.
A friend of mine recommended this band to be back in the early 2000's. I walked down to my local record store and picked up a copy of IKSSE3. One day I was on the bus on my way to band practice and was listening to it in my headphones. As soon as I was less then halfway through the opening title track my mind was absolutely shattered. They have been one of my favorite bands ever since and I even have the Keywork logo tattooed on my upper back.
Someone needs to let David in on the fact alot of thier music revolves around Claudio's comic and novel series. Thier music is so deep due to this.
Man this whole guitar center session was absolute fire
Coheee and Cambria is my favorite band of all time. I’ve been a fan since the Shibuti days…hell earlier.
Please do a deep dive on coheed! Love your reviews. Some of my favorites. This band has a wide range, you'll love it!!
Everyone should go watch the video of this song played live during a lighting storm. It's awesome.
This band desperately needs a 5 by its basically Rush for Millennials, in the best way possible.
Love your analysis bro
This is my all time favorite band. I’ve seen them 19 times.
I heard this song on the movie called 9 back when I watched it in 2010. I never stopped listening to the band since then!
As a long time Coheed and Cambria fan, all I got to say that their music is a beautiful and deep well. So much variety in styles and depth of lyrics. The whole team is just so talented. Each album is a treat in it's own right.
Their acoustic "here we are juggernaut" during the Taylor Guitars set is incredible.
I've modeled my voice and usage of enunciation for yeaaaaars which really helped with my classical singing. he truly is my idol
My favorite band. I’ve got the Keywork on my right hand. Seeing you do this was amazing.
I love this band, please do more a couple of reactions.
I've seen them three times and it's always incredible.
Coheed was such a HUGE part of my High School years. Their music really formed what I listen to now as a 30 year old.
Would love to see some TesseracT breakdowns from you. Love hearing the producer/engineer perspective
My brother and I seen them twice. I love their music! One of their tours was with Taking Back Sunday 2018. The last song of Coheed’s set was about to start. The lights were dimmed red and we could see Claudio with the double neck and we KNEW what song was coming~ I would love to go see them again!
Love Coheed! David.... Youre the best
Go see them live. They’re touring right now!
One of the first good songs I ever learned and performed in high school.... good times and that solo was sick to learn
You made me spit out my coffee lol. I, too, was checking out his hair
Prob one of the greatest performances ever. Happy ro see your take.
