Good story, great music, short but effective.
Coheed And Cambria are a little over a week from making their Soundwave Festival debut. One of the biggest band's in modern prog-rock, they have continued to innovate and set the standard for the genre since their 1995 formation. With all their albums following concepts based on a storyline written by Vocalist Claudio Sanchez, the band released Year of The Black Rainbow - a prequel to their other four albums in April last year. After tonnes of media attention, critical acclaim and solid touring, Australia is about to get their dose of Coheed's latest. Just ahead of their Soundwave appearances, we catch up with Lead guitarist Travis Stever for a chat.
