Few bands excite the nerdiest of nerds like Coheed & Cambria do. I don't really care at all about the story / saga / comic book stuff, although I do happen to think they write some pretty great songs. So, it is with tempered excitement that I give you the trailer for Coheed & Cambria's [...]

Don't forget about us!" without saying much of anything substantial while the former contains precious nuggets of actual information.
