Now every time I hear this song, I'll think of Claudio playing Dominoes with his brother.
"Hey guess what bro, DOMINOOOOOOO"

[@ThatDudePlatina]

My regret not buying the collectors edition when I could.
I’m so happy to still have the Novel of The Black Rainbow.

[@PauliustheDrummer]

I LOVE how open Claudio is about this album in particular. It's definitely part of the hype of everything, but for super-fans like myself it's just so awesome to find out what has inspired his fantastical characters and ideas.

Anyone else on a Co&Ca binge right now?

[@Mirosake]

it gives so many feels. I love this song so much.

[@RosanneEs]

'Domino!' gave me goosebumps

[@SelfMedicatedRx]

I had an episode of American Dad muted while I watched this. When Claudio says, "Domino!!" I looked up at the screen and an intricate line of dominoes was going on to shut off the power by Roger in Stan's house.
Also, in this episode Stan and Steve are locked up in a Mexican jail, imagining things with a cockroach strapped to a toilet paper dowel. I'd say that's pretty close to the definition of destitute.

best song on the album

[@axlsmith6005]

This album was a master piece.

[@biggynamel]

I really think this album is going to be fantastic. Like a blend of the best aspects from IKSSE:3, bits of the Willing Wells' vibes, and a sprinkling of NWFT.

[@MolotovSandvich97]

You sir, are a fucking genius.

[@jondeberg2060]

We all know that Domino is Michael Todd... right?

[@ValdoVlogger96]

One of my fave song, until I hear and loved so many others (everything evil, in keeping secrets, gravity union, etc., etc.)!!!
PLEASE COME TO MONTERREY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kirapon]

I read this with Claudio's voice XD

[@kbibeast]

It's always funny how you expect a song you've heard for the name to have some kind of deep meaning, but it just turns out it was named because claudio was rembereibg playing dominoes

[@johnnythekillermouse]

1:16 Dominoooo

[@ArinWolfe]

I'm shaking with anticpation. Holy crap

[@thematjones]

Dominooooooo

[@pukethedayaway3151]

we made our beds, to lie in them proud, proud of out great mistakes

[@jam406]

I'm going there (:

[@justiniawa]

lol any coheed video, like before watching

[@KingThor128]

Whatever happened to the official music video for the track? I remember loving it so much. But it's just gone. Copyright issues?

[@MTGjumper]

Claudio looks... thinner. Y'know, just in good shape. Anyway, looking forward to seeing them in Birmingham!

[@StellaSweetLilly]

lol I love how coheed fans are always on the same..wave length I guess. I was gonna comment this and then saw that it was already the top comment haha

[@Seamussor]

That seems like a heavy overstatement saying it could be more emotional than Mother Superior. Not that they cannot or will not make a more emotional song, (I hope they do!), but that song is just amazing. Alas I've not heard The Afterman yet, waiting for the record honestly, I'm certain it will not disappoint.

[@tacod.g5909]

His brother was a boxer aswell

[@howardcoca]

GIVE ME THAT GOLDEN TICKET!!!!!!

[@thematjones]

:)

[@ajelizalde]

The undisputed champ...
Of misery.

[@Thebrodyas]

Clus

[@staplesmcjebus]

Hmm, I wonder who fueled this character....

[@bleerrgghhhh]

This waiting is raping me in the face... You guys are just too epic. :D
