Oct 5, 2018The first half of the album I really enjoyed, The second half not so much. It's still a solid album and definitely one of their better ones but after the first Burning Star album, There was a lot to live up to and they still delivered but not as high as the original.

Nov 17, 2011It proves how much a band can evolve when you are on your 4th album and it sounds nothing like your previous works. While the new sound does benifit the band in some ways, There are simply not enough good tracks to make this album good

Apr 11, 2011Absolutely amazing. Claudio's vocals are just incredible, and Mic and Travis do great on bass and guitar. Taylor Hawkins does great as a fill-in for Chris Pennie. Songs mix radio rock like Feathers with hardcore like The Hound. A fine album, and the second best they've made in my opinion.

ZachPDec 21, 2008It definitely isn't as engaging as their last two albums, but it has it's moments. There's a lack of clarity that you can hear, and they've entered a commerciality that isn't respectful ("the running free"). Still, i admire coheed for their balls and talent at writing and portraying a story.

SamH.Oct 11, 2008Absolutely unbelievable. This is by far the best CD that I own, and is my favorite of them so far. Exciting and intelligent guitar work and the beautiful, yet strange vocals combine to create an incredible album that I would recommend to ANYONE that has even a passing interest in quality music.

JoshC.Sep 8, 2008The culmination of a grandiose sci-fi story entwined with break-taking atmosphere and ripping guitar riffs.

DaleK.Jun 17, 2008A bit shorter than the last one, but a bit more solid overall. So we know the "0s" are coming from real musical integrity when one includes "Creed" in a name. Sorry Creed fan, but this is way beyond the musical skill of a 6 yr old. Thanks but us musical integricists will keep taking Coheed over Creed all day long.

BobJ.Jun 7, 2008Everyone that is giving this a 0 is just a huge D-bag. Their favorite band is probably Matchbox 20 or Nickelback.

CalvinP.Jun 3, 2008Frankly i don't understand the people giving this album a 0 if you do not enjoy this music in the slightest i don't think i would listen to ANY music you recommend have fun with your hip hop garbage

JBApr 2, 2008A proper 7,5. Currently the definition of a modern rock opera! Not as good as In keeping secrets..., but way better than the first installment of Good Apollo. While in no respect my favourite band, (not even within the prog or indie genres) this is quality.

JasonS.Mar 27, 2008Beautiful album from an intelligent and talented band (both in songwriting and in lyrical mastery). Once again, Coheed & Cambria prove that it is one of a kind.

PWaldoJan 22, 2008Im no die hard C&C fan, i jumped on board for Eyes of Madness and even then, the album took a while to grow on me, but now i love it which oddly i still cant say for the first two albums. No World For Tomorrow is a brilliant fourth album from C&C, heavier, proggier (bear with me) and just downright super listenable. This baby wont be off my playlist for a damn long time.

TomLanceNov 30, 2007This album has been very unfortunately gilted from the limelight it so richly deserves! Most reviews against it are merely written by people who don't like their style of music. Which is frankly stupid, if you have something preferential about their music, do not review them. (ie. spin)

AwesomeO.Nov 27, 2007You guys! You just don't get it, you guys! Too DEEP for you? You guys are so ignorant. I mean, "The End Complete"? That's so profound, you guys. It's like saying it's "the end", but it's really "the end" because it's "complete". Good luck writing deeper lyrics than that, you guys!

ShaneB.Nov 27, 2007I dunno why people are s h i t t ing on this album. Honestly Ican't thinnk of one song thats not good. And I can think of plenty that area absolutely excellent- No World for Tomorrow, Mother Superior, Gravemakers and Gunslingers, The End Complete, On the Brink. Keep listening, maybe you'll realise the truth.

FoxM.Nov 17, 2007People who just say they're a crappy emo band don't know what they're talking about. Disregard their ignorant opinions and form your own.

CedricZNov 14, 2007Claudio has been copying my voice since the late nineties. It's time he stop writing sci-fi stories that belong on a cereal box, cut the hair and retire. I did like him as Goldberg from The Mighty Ducks though.

JasonC.Oct 30, 2007Another beautiful, creative, and technically unbelievable entry into Coheed and Cambria's montage of art work. Did Claudio sell his soul to the devil to get his uncanny writing ability and guitar-riffing mastery?

Coheed have found their sweet spot.

Entertainment WeeklyC&C infuse their expansive music with enough grit and melody that you don't give a hoot what, say, 'The Hound (Of Blood And Rank)' is about. [26 Oct 2007, p.67]
