10 Artists That Destroyed Their Own Album

10. Amory Wars - Coheed and Cambria

When Coheed and Cambria first started the Amory Wars, it seemed to have a lot of potential for their career trajectory going forward. After all, the band themselves had the prog chops to pull it off, so it couldn't hurt to see them tackle a full fledged concept for an album. Then it kept going and going and going....

Compared to the normal sequel albums that come from the likes of Meat Loaf or even prog contemporaries like Queensryche, Coheed and Cambria have basically made the blueprint on how to test the audience's patience with these albums. Aside from the decent playing on every one of the individual songs, Claudio Sanchez isn't really that good at tying his stories together, oftentimes fumbling around and building different worlds to make sure everything fits together nicely. Trust me, it gets real old when you have to put up with it for multiple different album cycles.

As if the lackluster story wasn't enough for just one experiment, Coheed have kept busy bringing the Amory Wars back in recent years, which have sent any fairweather fans this band had left aching for them to go back to their traditional prog roots. In a genre that should be all about lofty concept albums, even people like Rush and Pink Floyd would be telling you to tone this down a little bit.
