Although many treat the term "progressive rock" as a label meant to be avoided, Coheed and Cambria embrace it, churning out dense, guitar-heavy music that changes time signatures with a vengeance. Having toured with Thrice and Hot Water Music, C&C often get the "emo-core" tag, but the band also leans towards the metal side of things, inviting comparisons to Tool and even Rush. In fact, Claudio Sanchez's high-pitched voice does bear a striking resemblance to Rush's Geddy Lee, but C&C have enough of their own identity to avoid being pigeonholed. With their complex sound and elliptical song titles such as "Cuts Marked in the March of Men" and "A Favor House Atlantic," Coheed and Cambria appear to have passed Prog Rock 101 with flying colors and are ready and willing to introduce the sub-genre the next generation.
