The Transistion Actually Works Well..

"So I guess, based on the two reviews below me that I'm going to be the only one actually reviewing this CD. To the one that says everything coheed puts out continues to awe you or whatever...? This CD is NOT COCA. It IS a very well done transistion from keeping secrets to string instruments making every song sound the same as the album version. And by sounding the same..I mean the same. In Blood Red Summer you can tell each part(especially the "hey hey" and clapping as well). I've followed COCA through everything, and I can't wait until the final stage of the story is told in their last CD. As it states on the back of this CD, this will hold any die hard fan over until the next release, and it's very well worth the money. Coheed in classical music form. If you're one of the die hard fans who knows the backstory that takes 3 hours to explain or one of the people who listens to COCA casually, this CD will not fail. You dont even have to like the band to like this CD. It's worth it."
Pretty sick sounding, but where's 2113?

"Who would know that an instrumental classical version of the progressive rock band Coheed and Cambria's second album would sound so awesome? It fits well as a complement to the album itself. Kudus to whoever made this. However, I'm only going to give it four stars because they left out 2113, which would have sounded great on a string quartet. Instead of that, they do their own original composition, but both songs would've fitted onto the CD. But regardless, it's a must."
