You stormed off to scar the armada

Man, I'm a sucker for prog rock and concept albums.

I'd never heard of Coheed and Cambria, except as an occasional song that came up on radioioRock as we had it on in the background on the XBMC. But that one song kept sounding a bit epic and pretentious, and that name seemed a bit odd - which, all in all, tripped my prog rock alert

ISIS.
Their LP called "Oceanic."
Concept album about the ocean, duh. Hehehe..

Good stuff. :)

You should also check out PELICAN and RED SPAROWES and JESU, too. All really good "metal" [supposedly] - but leaning much more proggish/ambient/experimental.

Isis, they sound very growly yet indeed proggy. Nice! Checking out these others too...

Holy crap! Songs with Roman-enumerated parts! And they're from Detroit? I must investigate further!
