The band will play Glasgow and London respectively and will perform their album Good Apollo, I’m Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow in its entirety. They will also be including a mix of songs from their most recent effort, Vaxis-Act II: A Window of the Waking Mind which the band released last year.

This news will come as quite a relief to UK fans of the band, owing to the fact that Coheed and Cambria were forced to cancel two festival dates as well as four shows in Europe-the band citing personal reasons for the cancellations. The band however, will still be performing at Download Festival in Derby and the two UK dates.

The band are currently touring the United States, before heading to the UK for Download this weekend

Released in 2007, Good Apollo, I’m Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow was Coheed and Cambria’s fourth studio album and a direct sequel to Good Apollo, I’m Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness. Both of these records represented a narrative that was a part of a larger story called The Amory Wars.

The fourth and final concept album, was a massive success for the band, debuting at number 6 on the Billboard charts and leading to a world wide tour as well as numerous headlining shows in both the US and Europe. The album is perhaps also notable for being the only Coheed and Cambria record to feature Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters fame, on drums.

Formed in 1995 in New York, Coheed and Cambria made a name for themselves within the burgeoning post hardcore and emo scenes. The band is has been able to carve a unique niche for themselves, with all of their albums (except one) thus far representing a concept body of work. The albums are based off of a science fiction narrative, written by big-haired guitarist and vocalist Claudio Sanchez. Seeking to further delve into the world that he created, Sanchez has also released The Amory Wars as a comic series and novel.

In addition to the band’s busy schedule, guitarist Travis Stever is one of five members that make up the supergroup LS Dunes. Forming during the pandemic, the band have released one album, touring the UK back in January.
