Coheed and Cambria is absolutely the best (fairly) new band around now. They can in NO way be considered emo, they are concept band working on a 4 album story. Their first record, The Second Stage Turbine Blade is actually the second part of the story, and their second record, In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 is actually part 3. The basic story goes along the lines of Coheed is married to Cambria, and Coheed goes crazy and kills himself and Cambria. Their son, Claudio, has to save the world... it's presumably a creation-type myth, but from what has been revealed so far, it seems to be more of an armaggedon-type story.
