After sharing the epic lead single The Dark Sentencer last month, spacey, prog-punk stalwarts Coheed and Cambria have announced details of their new LP. Its called The Unheavenly Creatures, and the predictably ambitious project is due out October 5th via Roadrunner Records, making it their first release with the venerable label.

Spanning 15 tracks, the self-produced album clocks in at 78 minutes and finds frontman Claudio Sanchez returning to the conceptual science-fiction narrative of The Amory Wars, a story Sanchez has sought to tell through his music, a novel, and a comic book series. The bands last album, 2015s The Color Before The Sun, was the first to deviate from the narrative.

The album will be available in a variety of configurations, including Vaxis Act 1: The Unheavenly Creatures Limited Edition Deluxe Box Set, which is isnt kidding about the deluxe part. Included in the set is an exclusive 80-page hardcover novel with illustrations by Chase Stone, as well as the complete Act 1 novella written by Sanchez and his wife, Chondra Echert. In addition to the album, theres a bonus disc, The Crown Heights Demos, which highlights the songs in their earliest forms, plus the Unheavenly Creatures Black Card, which grants early access and entry to shows on the bands upcoming tour. Thats out the same day as the album, and you can catch a glimpse of it in all its glory below.

Damn the topic title got cut off.

Also Claudio has said this is a first part of a new 5 part story in the same universe.

We're gonna get years and years of awesome to come.

I was gonna see them in Baltimore but now it looks like I'll be on work travel all of July :(

But the work travel means extra money which will turn into a dragonfly / keywork tattoo so I guess it's not all bad!

Someone explain this band to me. I never listened to them in high school as I wasnt a fan of this type of music. I tried the first album a couple months back and while musically it was decent, the lyrics and the story made no fucking sense.

I dont understand why artists announce an album release way before its supposed to drop. Only reasoning I can guess is for touring purposes to get fans hyped, but still.

"Prog" band (quotes only because prog purists are sticklers) that has an overarching story across all of their albums besides one at this point. It's basically a space rock opera that breaks the 4th wall for a few albums. They also have a comic book series explaining the story.

You don't have to know the story to enjoy them though. They're awesome. A good place to start is IKSSE3.

The story in the songs are rather vague, so a lot of the story is got from the outside of the music material that Claudio released. Either in the comics or books that come with the collectors editions. Personally for me on the first few albums I mostly made up the story in my head and connected the lyrics to it and have sort of my own head cannon where it's mixed with legit story and my own weird view of it. Either way the music is kick-ass.

Is a good quick and dirty on most of the albums.

/r/TheFence also has a lot of 'song of the day' posts where they will write up the meaning of the song in 'real life' and the meaning in the story, and any other trivia they know on it.

Claudio would write a song about his real life, but because he was self conscious he also wrote a story to hide the actual meaning. So it's kinda weird that a song has two meanings most of the time.

Don't worry about the concept/story at all, just enjoy the music cause it rocks.If you really wanted you could go read comics, but like, whatever.

Nah, I actually understand the story Kingdom Hearts needs a 3 hour long YouTube video to even come close to understanding it.

You don't like the thing. That's fine too. But I doubt they have much interest in you not liking the thing, so why bring it up?
