Coheed & Cambria The Afterman: Ascension

2012, Modern progressive rock band Coheed and Cambria's latest sixth studio album is a double concept album entitled, THE AFTERMAN, and will be released in two separate full-length volumes. Musically, THE AFTERMAN sees the band perfecting their powerhouse progressive rock, soul and even pop landscapes. The dual release also marks the return of original drummer Josh Eppard, who the band parted ways with in 2006, bringing with him his benchmark percussive grooves. Sanchez has several times stated he is envious of his father's era of music, and that the band is influenced by groups of that era, such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Police, Misfits, Queen, and Thin Lizzy. Apart from these roots, Sanchez also acknowledges an eclectic array of influences, including post-hardcore group At the Drive-In, and heavy metal pioneers Iron Maiden.
