COHEED & CAMBRIA
Coheed and Cambria is an American progressive rock band formed in Nyack, New York. The band has been active since 1995, although they did not go by the name Coheed and Cambria until 2001, when Nate Kelley left the band. Before this they were known as Shab?tie.
Coheed and Cambria's albums are concept albums, revealing the plot of a storyline called The Amory Wars, written by lead singer Claudio Sanchez. To date, the band has released four studio albums, two live albums, and various special-edition releases, with their latest release being Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow in 2007.
BARONESS
BARONESS formed in the summer of 2003 in Savannah, GA, but the bands roots run; all members, past and present, are friends from childhood in Lexington, VA at the foot of the mighty Blue Ridge Mountains. The band released a string of EP's shortly thereafter and toured North America and Europe heavily on the backs of each. In late 2006, the band started work on their first proper full-length and Relapse debut Red Album. Upon its release in September of 2007, Red Album was a bold statement of intent that wowed fans and critics alike.
