Coheed and Cambria

In 2015, when Coheed and Cambria played live at the State Theatre in Portland, they were fresh off their album 'The Color Before the Sun', which was released in late 2015. This marked a significant point in their career as it was their first album not to be connected to the overarching story of The Amory Wars—an ambitious narrative that had defined much of their previous work. Fans were thrilled to see how they’d evolved, experiencing a more personal lyrical style. The energy of their live performances at this time showcased their ability to blend complex rock instrumentation with heartfelt storytelling, making it clear they were still pushing boundaries. Fun fact: during this era, Coheed and Cambria were not just musicians but also cultivated a strong community among their fans, often engaging them through social media, enhancing that concert experience even before fans entered the venue!
