Coheed and Cambria-Good Apollo, Vol. 1: Crossing the Frame

[howardcoca]

is it me or does claudio say you decide to answer when my fist swings hello not rings hello...

[ArkChainer]

One of the greatest albums of all time.

[gonzoderp]

this is in my top 5 of coheed for sure love this song

[beandumper]

this is some high school shit. brings me back.

[synysterrhys]

Cassstiiiinng Quuarrttterrrsss!!!

[CatsVSHumanity]

Should have been the big single off of this album if you ask me

[konfusion2113]

@CatsVSHumanity I read somewhere that everyone (music reviewers) said the same thing. The deal is though the management at the time really wanted welcome home as a single and the guys of coheed really wanted the suffering as the first single but they had to cave.

[toastman3312]

CLAUDIO SANCHEZ=OVER ALL BADASS!

[Amarant1994]

My computer just lost it's speaker-virginity to this song.

[MayerEO]

maybe this is me overlooking things but...Newo...backwards makes Owen... spying on you, owen...?

[xRickAstleyx]

@MayerEO

Newo Ikkin is Nikki Owen backwards (Claudio's Ex-Girlfriend), Newo Ikkin is one of the main characters in the Coheed and Cambria storyline and is the main character's love interest

[MayerEO]

@xRickAstleyx oh no way!! so i was half right!! :O whoaaa!

[cracken9250]

@MayerEO lol. thats not very funny to owen.

[mermaidsandanchors]

When I first heard Coheed about 4 years ago I didn't like them, but now they're my favorite band. :)

[WastingElectricity]

@mermaidsandanchors Same! I couldn't stand them at first... 3 concerts, several t-shirts and one signing later I'm addicted

[ark4b50]

That little groove there in 2:33-2:48, that is far too addicting.

[NICK2the4REAPER7]

God, i love Good Apollo 1. by far my favorite album!

[Thejaycefish]

This is the first song I heard from Coheed. And this is the song that got me addicted :P

[ryno324]

Casting quarters into wells that hold our dreams

[Treck96]

'You decide to answer when my fist rings hello'

Haha :D Great song

[nintendoforever1995]

HOME... THE SILENCE BETWEEN GLARES THAT SHUTTERS WORDS MISSLEADING, HERE. good song.

[needlearmor]

this is a good song, and this is how to do rock drumming

[scitslunkphantasmo]

2:36-2:44 is so catchy i've listened to it about 100 times today

[ApolloIVtv1]

Good apollo is just a poetic and beautiful album, which is why it's my favorite

[PokemonRawksBrah]

@ApolloIVtv1

Agreed

[thecrystal28]

Anyone else think "The White Ruineer" looks just completely BADASS in the comic?

[BigJbird827]

Because of a serum injected into his bloodstream years ago, Coheed transformed into the Monstar after gazing at his wife on another planet. Although he's evil, Monstar has the ability to either save or destroy the universe, which is on the brink of disaster following the disarray of the keywork, a beam of energy that sustains the planets.

[BigJbird827]

Coheed and Cambria are actually a married couple who attempted to kill their own children, with three of the four winding up dead. The lucky one, Claudio, fled into hiding.

[T1M3TOWCC]

@xtremeclassic504 junesong provision :)

[TheBrassMunkey]

Is this GodSentHellraiser's alt account?

[Jsullivan75]

Here across the grass between the glass!

[xgoodbyetonightx]

"I'm giving you up Newo, how important I could have been to you"

Reminds me so much of my ex. I miss her :(

[lasoogneypubes]

@xgoodbyetonightx

I feel ya buddy

[addictedtodota24]

I thought it was "Give me all you got with one shot sent to let me know"

[MERIO888]

yea same here. badass song

[cherokee974]

Casting quarters into wells that hold our dreams, you won't believe me....even if I told you so....so consume a dongberger.

[ninababyrbms]

@golds2theberry no doubt that the suffering doeznt kick ass, but the final cut is the best

[Mistatan]

one of my favorite coheed and cambria songs

[MaroMaro1993]

every song of Claudio is awesome :D

[golds2theberry]

no wayyy, the suffering is by far the best:)

[normsteez]

by far my favorite coheed song

[Quetzelamaya]

blazeinghurricane Both. he told me so himself, I asked.

[ShougoKiba]

The writing writer. the one in the story who talks to a bicycle =D

[NewoIkkin93]

@ShougoKiba you wish you were cool enough to talk to a bicycle and get away with it =] I know I do lol

[DMStringer2k9]

love this song

[SprayHeartSkate]

Actually love this song

[Prologue2113]

This story was birthed on a trip to Paris... Who would've thought?

[Gillz93fyi]

this song is amazing. luv it to death

[XtremeClassic504]

Best song Coheed ever made

[murderface23]

@XtremeClassic504 God Send Conspirator.

[THCGamers]

@XtremeClassic504 Jersey City or Ten Speed buddy

[jetershomie]

This is one the best songs to drive really really fast to. FKN LOVE THIS SHIT. drummer is so fkn tight

[xHNaomiBx]

to all that dont know... these lyrics dont mean a thing... the words are an artistic composition in order to get his sci fi story across...the i dea of course is brilliant aswell as the execution...if u dont listen to coheed u should and thats it :P

[AgowTisro]

The lyrics do have meaning. Claudio writes them based on life experiences and reflects them in the story. For instance.. Newo Ikkin is based on an ex-girlfriend, Nikki Owen. He shows it more on NWFT than the previous albums. But they are based on actual events in Claudio's life.. The band.. all that good stuff.

[LittlemanFTW92]

dose this album tell a story or something i just now am really getting in to Coheed and Cambira and i want to learn more

[bslz65]

they are the only concept band. the singer cladio, has comics called the amory wars and this band tells the story

[Maraudernumber2]

They arent the only concept band, There are many more. But they certainly have the most extensive story. and best

[Liexnnod]

Oh yeah, It's actually a pretty interesting story. I'm just gettin into it myself, but from what Ive seen it's really cool :)

[NewoIkkin93]

@Liexnnod The albums are more or less the sound track to the comics

[ND7652]

Yes it does as it has part to do with his former girlfriend Nikki Owen who's name is mentioned backwards hence the Newo and Ikkin references on this and other albums. Combine this with the comic story and you've got a dynamic synergy of fact and fantasy with some great music .

[jordanbeeyah]

No problem.

[jordanbeeyah]

Don't quote me on this but i believe it's showing the Writer giving up on Erica Court which causes Claudio to begin giving up on Newo. As he thinks about Erica, Claudio spies on her(as he does many times in the past). They both lose touch with their relationships.

[NewoIkkin93]

@jordanbeeyah Kinda, but it's also that Claudio left Newo to go do all The Crowing shit && when he came back to her she wasn't the same

[MVPisBallin305]

claudio is a fucking god.

[mastadaddy1234]

when iwas listening to this i thought of newo which made me think terril owens cause newo backwards is owen everyones gonna get all pissed when i submit this so don't waste your time replying this

[ChaostheClown]

it's actually newo ikkin, which backwards is nikki owen.

if you look around enough you'll find out more behind that.

[Shabutie97]

The beggining of this song always reminds me of Double Dragon for some reason.

[InvaderChrissy]

JUST SAW THEM IN ATLANTIC CITY, yess

[XJunesongXProvisionX]

Finally someone figured it out....Her name is Nikki Owen...backwards...Newo Ikkin......listen to basically any shabutie song and you will hear nikki in it. Listen to diciples anthem...or Elf Tower New Mexico

[DCism]

This is one of my fav bands of all time. I first heard of them in 04 and I didn't like them back then, but after a while, their music grew on me and I like their music ever since. Claudio is one amazing storywriter, guitarist, and singer and he kicks ass.

[FiestaRofl]

@DCism yeah you're just like me. i also have been listen to their songs a few time, and everytime you hear a song, it's getting better. but there are always some songs i don't like...

[taylorcor]

nothing fucks with good apollo.

[WalkAroundDude]

I think it's simply the best Coheed and Cambria album to date.

[TakSaito3]

lol so true

[Rockabilly500]

Sometimes the lyrics are familiar,but that's what happens in a story right? You have things like flashbacks and foreshadowing. I think it's their best album yet ;) the guitar work is pretty awesome and complex at times

[TakSaito3]

lol

same but with different lyrics?

then its a whole nother song....

[TakSaito3]

wells that hold our dreams....love that part

[amozoness6]

omg i just made an awesom discuvery!! newo ikkin is nikki owen backwards!!!!

;)

[Esscex]

lol yeah, an ex girlfriend of Claudio's, who i believe the whole Erica Court/Newo?Amberlina connection is based off

[Rockabilly500]

Nikki Own was one of claudios (the real claudio) old girlfriends so he put her and the claudio in the storys girlfriend,Erica Court is the love interest of the writer and she is represented as Ambellina in his story

[Wes93cicgrf]

You're partly right. A girl named Owen was Claudio's Ex-Girlfriend IRL. so he put her in a Newo. Owen backwards.

[xxTheHellTriggerxx]

kinda. her full name was Nikki Owen and so claudio mirrored the whole name into Newo Ikkin

[Velourium]

wow, he's clever!

[ApolloIVtv1]

@xxTheHellTriggerxx vever knew that

/:I

[AstroFishLol]

@Wes93cicgrf

Dude, the girl's name was Nikki. LOL. Nikki Owen is Newo Ikkin backwards. Get your facts straight.

[NewoIkkin93]

@Wes93cicgrf You are an idiot.

[supremebeing87]

@Wes93cicgrf He's actually married to her now, though.

[lasoogneypubes]

@Wes93cicgrf

Lol a girl named Owen. Did she have a penis?

[BigJbird827]

@Wes93cicgrf Coheed and Cambria are actually a married couple who attempted to kill their own children, with three of the four winding up dead. The lucky one, Claudio, fled into hiding. Because of a serum injected into his bloodstream years ago, Coheed transformed into the Monstar after gazing at his wife on another planet.

[BigJbird827]

Although he's evil, Monstar has the ability to either save or destroy the universe, which is on the brink of disaster following the disarray of the keywork, a beam of energy that sustains the planets.

[max13102]

I wonder who Newo is.

[ShinySomething]

Lucky, that's all I can say. ;D

[ShinySomething]

Or, on a serious note, Claudio's girlfriend in The Amory Wars. :p

[Belfire4]

during the bridge you get alot of the same sounds on some of the PFI songs, tahs pretty cool

[SwearingPenguin]

This song = epic win

[SwearingPenguin]

I Just got a throbbing boner.

[Esscex]

0.o lol i like the music too but uh...lol

[Gooface123]

I'm pretty sure the intro IS A Favor House Atlantic's, just a little spiced up.

[DylanthegeetaristTV]

No its just the drum beat that makes it seem like it.

The guitar parts are different completely

[AngelOfDeath787]

Ten Speed followed by Crossing the Frame is the sickest song combo in the world. They're two fucking incredible songs. I wish more bands had sets like this on their cds. But I digress, there are no other bands like Coheed and Cambria!

[Makaveli675]

Dude, Welcome Home then Ten Speed, then this. Co&Ca rocks.

[ND7652]

I disagree the song that follows this on the album Apollo 1 :The Writing Writer is the Best Combo IMO.

[R3D00d]

I love their sound.

[zambie552]

damn i love this song, i used to be obsessed with a favor house until i heard this, wow

[metalhead80000]

lol thts what happend to me.

[NeonPOP15]

LOL the beginning sounds like A Favor House Atlantic, but the rest sounds like The Suffering.

[NitrousAndre]

IM SPYING ON YOU NEWO!

[YungStokes1]

Is it just me or does the begining sound just like A Favor House Atlantic...

[xxTheHellTriggerxx]

maybe, idk, i hate a favour house atlantic

[AngelOfDeath787]

Well I rather like Fall of Favor house lol....Puts an end to this dispute. Because ITS DEAD!!!! lol >;)

[metalhead80000]

i m a skater and the first time i heard this song i was watching a skate vid.I was like what?Is this favor house atlantic so i think so.

[RoeyAdam]

A Favor House Atlantic is their shittiest song. But its funny as hell though, the story line behind the song is cool, the way its performed--not so much. But crossing the frame is WAYYYYYY better.

[TylerthePayne]

What's up with all the AFHA hate? lol.

[RoeyAdam]

its too....poppy. Its like, not original Co&Ca, thats why. Its a funny song in my opinion, but it is kinda dumb :S

[NeonPOP15]

IDK I think it's because of how high Claudio's voice is in that song.

[RoeyAdam]

Nice rant clock :).

But hes not talking about his own empathy...ITS ABOUT THE AMORY WARS. Gawd. Well, its kinda based on his book, but he wasnt always top of the food chain you know :S, i'm constantly at the bottom and I find it easier to live on the bottom. A second sight is a second wind, but the way I look at it, its nothing but a curse burdened to me :S. Oh well, when one begs for the gift, the other begs to rid of the burden. :P

[clockwerkkilla420]

ok singer from coheed and cambria. I dont have a problem with ur music but seriously. If your gonna sing about having empathy in everything that lives and breathes like a bubble surfacing on the frozen steps stop singing about being on the top of the food chain singing about victims. We've all been there before , and your not the only one with second sight ( some call it a gift some call it a curse ) Shit just pisses me off.

[Tilter304]

Me and my friend are debating over this song. We read the comic a day apart from eachother, and she says this song is describing the part in the comic where Claudio is running from the mutated priest, and had stopped to see Newo. I say, it's just after. We're most likely both wrong, but we'd still like to know.

[RoeyAdam]

actually,its a diff story line then The Amory wars.This is about the writing writer missing erica, as well as claudio missing newo. Its the Good Apollo series, not SSTB

[Rockabilly500]

this is the good apollo series,not SSTB

[empirerakeback]

anyone know where i can read a condensed version of the co ca comic book story? i'm interested, but don't have time to read it all right now.

[xxTheHellTriggerxx]

yea i know, the jonas brothers are crap. their only fans are 12 year old girls who are retarded.

[LavenderSharpie]

God this song is so BEAST !

His voice is just so AWESOME !

Lovely ~

AND YET THE JONAS BROTHERS ARE ALL OVER MAGAZINE COVERS.

[Saxgurugirl1]

Exactly! Thank you, finally someone who is NOT attached to the Jonas Brothers' or Hannah Montana 's (yes, her too) balls.lol.

Coheed! : ] lol

[GodsentHellraiser]

NOW!

Super sex party to this song.

Ready?

GO!

[FallRaven]

Might Morphin' Coheed Rangers, hmm? ;)

[xxTheHellTriggerxx]

umm i hope not.:P

[FallRaven]

Yeah, it'd be a bit wierd, wouldn't it?

[xxTheHellTriggerxx]

lol, yea just a bit:P

[petergrifin65]

claudio is an awesome singer and this is a great band

[FeedTheMachine2k8]

2nd favourite track off the album, this and the writing writer are amazing

[scutrboi]

very original. they rock!

[tekachisen]

this song should have had a video to it. The suffering video kinda sucked. this song is sweet sounding but has a very erie dark vibe to it as well. I love it

[ND7652]

Thats why Coheed&Cambria are such a outstanding band because you cant just put a generic video out with their songs you MUST LISTEN to them

[Itookmytimetohurryup]

thanks for doing this, favorite song off the album

[yesyourface]

I like the amount of ratings this has. Usualy it's one rating for every 500 views.

[Frazavre]

very excelent. Nuff said.

[Frazavre]

very excellent.

[Boneinurgurl]

Great Band with original sound

[nikesbskater0s]
