Can we just get an animated series of The Amory Wars?? Reading and listening to the story behind the songs are so awesome, cuz they immerse you into this whole new world. Imagine seeing that play out on screen. It would be MIND-BLOWING!!! Please, make this happen, guys!
Get the studio that did Arcane for the animation and that would be awesome.
The budget isn't there to do a quality enough animation. People want to see it in a high budget animation but honestly if they went for one it would have to be really cheap.
@@sebastiancintron29 That would be the play. That studio nailed Arcane.
There was gonna be a movie, back when The Amory Wars was still just Coheed, Cambria, Claudio, Jesse, the IRO-Bots, vs Wilhelm Ryan, and iirc Mark Wahlberg was attached to produce(?), but that's stuck in development hell at best, and the story's gone so far beyond that now.
EDIT: Which is to say, full support for an animated series.
An animated Amory Wars show would kill
Wow those are definitely...visuals.
Very 90s looking, that's for sure lol
This will go down in history as one of the music videos of all time
Lmao
Tell me from 3:00 and on this doesn’t sound exactly like coheed …

I’ll never get over how amazing this song is.
Agreed, so much so that I’m going to forget how crappy the video was.

i couldnt disagree more. this song is terrible.
@@dragonnoodlesoupgaming9619does being a contrarian make you feel cool and superior or something
@@TheRoboticFerret no, these lyrics suck and the music is monotanous! next to their previous work, this song sucks!
well, it is a video. Comes up about 98% short of being worthy for such a great track!
I've been a long time Coheed and Cambria fan. Its not very often they put out something where I get disappointed. This is one of those things. This song is so wonderful and powerful. This music video is disrespectful to the song.
Haha its worse than their dumb centaur-mermaid CGI from the Suffering video! Great songs, awful videos!
I actually have to agree with this
Fake fan.
@@briancharyn213 lol ok
What about the video to A favor house atlantic? It has nothing to do with the worldbuilding and is just goofy 😂. Still a classic though
This song marks the start of a three song epic that will stand the test of time. Instant classics all of them!
I like to call it the Vaxis Suite
I prefer to start with Our Love and make it a four song suite.
@@charlesajones77 I considered that, but thematically, it seemed a bit separate
@@ApolloStarfallThe Willing Well V-VII. (V for Vaxis)
This is the coolest Winamp visualizer I’ve ever seen.
(My favorite album track though!)
😂😂😂
I love the song, one of the best that you've put out. That said, the video does not do the music justice. It feels a little aimless for a track that has such a rich story to tell. But still, an awesome song and a classic album. Ive listened to it countless times.
its a fully ai generated video...makes perfect sense :)
@@omegablast2002 it seems more like they used some 3d assets in certain moments and used ai to blend them together.
It feels similar to the old music player's background. Like it shifts and moves with the beat of the song but doesn't actually portray the song beyond the scenes being a part of the story.
Completely agree, I really enjoyed watching Josh smash this song out in the studio on his channel. If they released a 4x4 of each of them recording this in the studio, that would be incredible.
@@joshuafisher7167 yeah I agree, it's definitely more of a visualizer. It's odd that they hyped it as a regular video.
wow i searched Coheed expecting to be taken down a path of nostalgia but instead I get this masterpiece

What in the acid trip hell did I just watch? One of the best songs on the album and this is the video that was green lit for it, 2023 just keeps getting more low effort
Dude what are you talking about the video fits the song, if you're paying attention the waviness is actually the character models swapping parts and designs extremely fast. I think it's supposed to represent those that have failed. Even the starships all change shape and size as if they're from different points in time and factions. Was it a strange artistic decision? Sure, but I think it's fitting considering the lyrics and the point in the story that this song refers to.
“Stay down boy see ya got clowned boy” are some of my favorite Claudio vocals this album 😍
"sear the crown, boy"
I'm not sure this artwork deserved to be mangled by an AI like this... Honestly, taking some of the cleanest, coolest sci-fi artwork I've ever seen and making it indisctinct and mangled was *a choice* .
The human being behind the inspiration of these conspiring bands is a ******* legend. Forever. Yaya! More Cambria 🙏
this is certainly a video. Looks like someone watched Reboot and Beast Wars and said what if we used that art style 25 years later in a music video. It's a good thing the song goes so fucking hard.
My favorite song on the album. When they played it live on their latest tour About lost my shit! I felt like Sirius in the Keywork HIGH KEY! Love this band with my entire being.
I still can't believe one of the Prise is still alive! That's awesome. I can't wait to see what's in store.

This song is unbelievably good. Undoubtedly one of the best produced. I have to see this one live. This is a phenomenal work of art. Bravo and well done Coheed and Cambria.
This musicians have really nailed their craft. Love how they expose their greatness.
Yo i fuckin love Re-Boot
This is my favorite song of the album, cant wait to see it live.
It’s so good live. Honestly, probably even better live. I got to see them a few weeks ago, they played it right before welcome home. Both are amazing live. My gf just surprised me with tickets to see them later this year. I can’t wait!
It is incredible live.
Some of these animation studios should be able to jump in on the idea and help out with this becoming a series as a whole. The part of storytelling is all in Coheed's especially visually and the writing direction. There will be an anime of Amory Wars or however they want their creation to be. I really do hope there will be such thing because as much as I look forward to new innovative and creative animated series, we really are lacking them.
Love your music. Love the song. Love the individual aspects of these video clips. But this video is so low effort, and it really, really shows.
AI? C'mon.
Looking closer it definitely gives the impression an AI was fed images of existing artwork and they just kinda got morphed together.
I love this song bits but this video is such a huge let down especially since it was launching on Crunchyroll of all places.
I was expecting some actual animated shots.
Hold up...
So they take the best song on the album that was released LAST YEAR, give it an... interesting but limited and repeating (kinda cheap) music video... That's announced through Crunchyroll news? Also, the music video has nothing to do with anime, so... why... announce through an anime news source??
There's a story here.
ClauGodio works in mysterious ways
I hope they get an anime series
It'd be sick if they made an Amory Wars anime.
Nah it's like they paid a animator to create a couple scenes , didn't like how long it took him, and just threw what he had into an ai for the video it's a sad lack of creativity from one of the most creative bands out there
@@danieljackson4504 sad agree
God damn these boys can play

Agree. Love the song. Its Coheed .This video is odd, but its also flashes of the story. Ill get back on my opinion when i watch 4,000 times.

This is absolutely the song I’m looking forward to hearing live in October!! Give me the Trifecta: Ladders, Rise, And Window!!
They’re not playing window on this tour. But ladders and Rise are great live (although window is still my favorite song from the album)
Hard agree the song is a banger and storytelling is topnotch but i definitely would have prefered a live action story telling video or just of you guys playing over this 😅
This going into Rise is one the cleanest transitions in music history.
Comparing this music video to Linkin Park's - Lost, is a fantastic example of how AI generated content can be amazing but can also completely fall flat. Coheed has always been a extremely talented group and Ladders is by far and above one of their absolute best tracks of all of time. Yet this music video feels aimless in direction especially given the deep storytelling we're all become accustom to through the Amory Wars.
This is a miss for me, maybe it's because I hold them at such a high regard but I'll still eagerly await any new music/content these professionals produce in the coming years!
Is this AI generated?
Cant wait for the next Boston tour!!
I was a huge fan of Coheed & Cambria while growing up and always bought their records & went to their concerts. Lately, didn't follow the band that much, but just saw this song passing by on CZcams and wow. I'm still a fan, we just had a hiatus for a few years
AHHHH that ending not leading directly into Rise hurts
Coheed has always had some obscure videos, but that has always just solidified who they are to me as artists. They aren’t trying to be cookie cutter in any way and they will always (so far at least) stand by their artistic decisions and directions regardless of how people feel about it. They could be another Fall Out Boy, Panic At The Disco, My Chemical Romance, or any other band with a 2-3 album lifespan before they sold out
The groove... the GROOVE!!!!!!!
Absolutely LOVE this album, each and every song is just peak C&C. The video however, ignoring the strange tracking and reuse of animation the worst part is the AI images used.
best song off the album
Long ago, when Coheed and Cambria landed, I was clueless to their power. Claudio is an amazing writer and performer! My partner and I were brought to tears during a rendition of "Lucky Stars". So much creativity and passion and the group keeps evolving!
Omg I have been sleeping on this album. Literally one of yalls BEST songs!!! 🖤 and I think the vid is pretty cool, too!
Thank you Coheed and Cambria
blow my mind
Absolutely LOVE the song, but yeah, hard agree with those disappointed by the video
I miss real music videos 🥺
to be fair visualized music videos have been a thing for a long time. This is just a bad one. Amazing song, it deserved better.
Every time I get a glimpse of the story that you are trying to tell Claudio, I get upset, because I still cannot find an easy way to get all the books together and read them. 😂
I'm you guys biggest fan
I'm mostly a DM/BM metal guy and got introduced to this band by a very hot emo chick back in high school. IV is a great album, but this is straight up heavy metal, love it. The whole album is great, love the poppy feels too.
Lyrics::
Oh, we've only got one chance at this
The severity unmerciful, as the tension sits
As the world comes into view
Our biggest fears they seem to all come true
So how we gonna handle this?
When the punch lands boy, it's all about how you fall
Go on swallow your defeat
Stay down, boy see ya got clowned boy
You got heart but sorry just ain't meant to be
Another one down the ladders of supremacy
The time has come for us
Accept all you've become
All your chances burned to ash, the end's begun
Here we watch as time moves on
Away from all the things we could have done
So how we gonna handle this?
When the punch lands boy, it's all about how you fall
Go on swallow your defeat
Stay down, boy see ya got clowned, boy
You got heart, but sorry, just ain't meant to be
Another one down the ladders of supremacy
Evil does as evil do
All you want they took from you
So, that's how it goes, because who you are
Take a look, you knew you never had a chance
You never had a chance to be loved
No matter how hard you want to play
You'll always have one foot in the grave
You just want to live, but you were born to lose, to lose
Now get up from the gravel and dust off your shoulders
'Cause now it's your chance to prove
Climbing up the ladders of their supremacy
Was it everything you had dreamed?
Did you make your mark?
Or did you let them stand between
Between you and everything?
I love you guys to pieces, I've been a dedicated Coheed Nerd since 05 at least.
But guys, this video is rough. I think ya'll need to get your money back.
I have listened to coheed in 15 years. And i still remember homeboys name is Mayo
Idk what the hyped announcement was for. They just took their existing artwork and put it through an AI art generator. Not really much of a music video, or anything new. It's still my favorite song on the album, though.
Idk man, I love to
See it tbh.
Please don't continue with the AI. It's flashy and fills time but is detrimental to the actual art and storytelling. Ladders deserved so much more.
Mr. Josh is becoming one of my favorite drummers
You ever listen to his solo music? When he split from the band he became “Weerd science” and it’s some of the best music I’ve ever heard
How unfortunate for such a badass song to receive what feels like an unpassionate MV. Kinda reminds me of the results you'd get when you used old windows movie maker's music video feature. Random clips placed at really random points.
guardians of the galaxy vibes... super cool!
I was hoping for anime but oh well. 😄
On top of being a really underwhelming (at best, if I'm being polite) video, this is the second music video I've seen this week that's 90% machine learning generated, and I could not be more disappointed. Like... 5:22 to 5:25, Vaxis's head changes size at least a dozen times. I know music videos take time and effort, and are largely seen as unnecessary and kind of a waste of time by a lot of people, but considering how long ago the record and its other videos came out, it'd be nice if there actually WAS some effort put in here. Still a great song from what is still my favorite band after 20 years, but man, this video ain't worth the watch.
vaxis is honking 😭
can not agree more.. well said
I don't know why exactly, but seeing them all stood round that hologram is giving me HEAVY Serenity/Firefly vibes.
Hol up. This is hard af
Let’s goooo!!
This video is so weird haha, like I'm not a huge fan of the CG in it but to not be so negative It's presented pretty well. The AI generated parts were also pretty neat and trippy too, that bit where vaxis became white was nuts (I forgor which chapter that happens in the story lul). love it or hate it, It's a coheed music video through and through. love this band fr
this is simply AMAZING!
I feel like I just watched an old windows screen saver.
Awesome video, very Star Trek!
Vaxis II is in the top 3 coheed albums for me... This music video is in the bottom 3 music videos I've ever seen.
Rare miss. This was straight booty.
This song deserves more than this video. This is the best release in 5+ years and you chose to use ai rather than work with real artist to actually dipict a narrative. I got goosebumps when I read a video was release. They quickly subsided when this mess of nothing played.
Love this band, love this song. Don't like the video. This seems like a strange move?
What a masterpiece.
best song of the album
Great song, would have preferred a live shot video over this though.
Masterpiece as always guys
Haven't listened to any of coheeds releases in years. This was..... interesting. sounds like between the buried and me meets fallout boy lol
Fave song on the album
dayyum these dudes can jam
Another amazing song from my favorite band. I love you guys, so happy you're still producing music! (Video could have been better though...)
MASTERPIECE
Music from the heart! Love to hear it, love to see it, unstoppable Coheed.
Such an amazing song
Blood red summer has been the only music video ive liked that Coheed put out, and ive been a coheed fan for over 15 years.
Coheed is GOAT
The visuals are like a ps1 cut scene
its settled. best part of 2023. cant change my mind
Tell me from 3:00 and on this doesn’t sound exactly like coheed …

Pretty sure these are just the visuals that are going to be used at shows -- arguably my favorite song on the album BUT I agree that we need a little more video-ness here. Hopefully we can get a redux sometime in the future to show off the story here rather than little clips being recycled over and over again. If nothing else, maybe a fan with some good cinematography skills will create something for us to enjoy. Not sure what the budget looks like but yeah, like most people in these comments I'm a little disappointed. At least it's still a certified BANGER of a song, though. Love Coheed and all they do and I'll always support em, but yeah... this ain't it, chief :P

weird to make this a video cuz correct me if im wrong, weren't these used just as background visuals for the last couple tours?
Welcome Back to the Metal , Prog or not I will always be a fan .
Amazing work all!! ❤
Every single coheed video reminds me of an xbox360 visualizer
Awesome!
Going to see them tonight in Montana!! 🤘🏻
bro this shit kills. love that bluesy space epic
The armory wars animated series. Get it goin Claudio
I have read a lot of comments on making this a series of some sort. I can imagine it's the most requested thing. We like this story and we want it to go further than what it is right now.
I'm trying to get there to get y'all on the road again
🍇🍇🍇
Just love the idea of video, they don't need to over do this one.
Loved it!
Amazing ❤❤
Great song and great video!
I can't wait until the AI trend is over, there is potential but for now it just cheapens an otherwise great piece of art. Absolutely love this song but I couldn't watch the video, I just let it play in another window so Coheed can get the views.
The really funny thing about AI generated work is that these models are starting/will start to get fed their own output due to how much they've pervaded the internet and it results in lower quality returns. They're effectively "teaching" themselves negatively.
getting those Liquid Television vibes right now
