The Color Before The Sun by Coheed And Cambria

The Color Before The Sun is a Rock album by Coheed And Cambria, originally released in 2015. On Gatefold: 12 pressings tracked, owned by 12 collectors.

About

<i>The Color Before the Sun</i> is the first Coheed album to exist outside the dark universe of <i>The Amory Wars</i>—the elaborate sci-fi saga that entwines the band’s first seven albums with comics written by frontman Claudio Sanchez. Even without the narrative concept, <i>The Color Before the Sun</i> is one of the most focused albums of the band’s epic career. Launching to life with the catchy “Island,” Sanchez brings a fresh lyrical perspective to radio-ready rock (“Here to Mars," “You Got Spirit, Kid”), metal theatrics (“Eraser”), and cinematic prog-punk (“Peace To the Mountain”).
