Thanks for the comment.
That is not a general view of mine. I have heard all of the Coheed and Cambria records and the higher production quality allows them to experiment more and create a sound that has some atmospheric qualities to it. Those qualities make a lot of their later work sound the part that they are trying to play. Hopefully that makes sense. Also the production quality hurts the music because the mixing feels off to me. Sometimes Claudio's screamed vocals can get drowned with the guitars and vice versa. Probably should have mentioned those points in the review, but I didn't want to take the later albums into consideration when reviewing the album.
What tracks have you heard off the album? If you do end up listening to the whole album you should let me know what you think. I am definitely curious.
