Claudio Sanchez's "Kill Audio": Coheed and Cambria Leader on New Comic, Upcoming LP

Claudio Sanchez is probably best known as the singer-guitarist of the powerhouse prog-rock band Coheed and Cambria, but he's also a comic book writer. His first major comics project was The Amory Wars, an expansion of the band's sci-fi mythology; at this year's Comic-Con, he launched a new miniseries, the much goofier Kill Audio, inspired by a self-portrait toy (a little troll with knives sticking out of his body) that Sanchez designed. (His signing for a special preview issue was mobbed.) Sanch

New Reviews: Mastodon, The Decemberists, Peter Bjorn and John

Photo: Miller/FilmMagic Loudly leading the charge of new releases this week is Mastodon’s Crack the Skye, which garnered a four-star review from Rolling Stone. Setting out to reach their “Metallica moment,” the band hooked up with producer Brendan O’Brien for an album we described as “thrill–ride stuff that conjures not just art–metal predecessors such as Helmet but also old–school prog–rockers like Rush, Frank Zappa and Yes.” The Rasputin-inspired “The Czar” is alone worth the price of admission. Also hitting shelves is the Decemberists’ The Hazards of Love. Combining British folk-rock and heavy-metal thunder, Colin Meloy and the rest of the Portland, Oregon collective make a prog-rock concept album worthy of four stars. “From the glacial, droning opening track to the head–scratcher folk finale, The Hazards of Love takes its time, inviting you to grab a seat in front of the fire, stoke your Meerschaum pipe and take a trip,” Will Hermes writes. Also joining the four-star review parade are “Young Folks” masterminds Peter Bjorn and John, whose Living Thing currently resides in your favorite record store. PB&J’s fifth album features more “infectious electro–acoustic tunes framing tales of romance and its discontents” but with cheeky lyrics and beats that sound like they were programmed by Depeche Mode. For the rest of this week’s noteworthy release, check the reviews below: • 1990s - Kicks • Blue October - Approaching Normal • Sarah Borges - The Stars Are Out • Coheed and Cambria - Neverender

Slipknot Still Angry Over Battle With Game for Number One: “This Was Our Time”

Photo: Jelonek/WireImage Slipknot, the Iowa-based nine-piece masked metal band entering its tenth year on the national stage, has just been announced as one of the headliners of Columbus, Ohio’s Rock on the Range Festival. The third annual fest — which also features Motley Crue, Alice in Chains and Korn — goes down May 17th and 18th. But right now, Slipknot are in the midst of their biggest American tour to date, including a massive gig at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The arena tour — with Coheed and Cambria and Trivium in tow — comes on the heels of last year’s All Hope is Gone, the band’s first Number One album, a victory that almost didn’t happen. Initial reports from SoundScan put rapper the Game’s LAX in the top spot by a margin of 13 albums, but after a recount the positions were reversed, with Slipknot taking it by over 1,100 units. And it’s a near-slight that still drives the band nuts, even six months later. “Any time we get something, it’s almost like we had to steal the fucking thing,” frontman Corey Taylor tells Rolling Stone. “We had to fight for that, in true Slipknot fashion. They didn’t want to just fucking respect us and wait until all the fucking numbers were in. They were like, ‘No, you didn’t have it — you got beat by 13 CDs.’ We’ve come so fucking close so many goddamn times, and this was our time.” Percussionist and band mastermind Shawn “Clown” Crahan is still plenty hacked off that the band he created came so close to having its moment in the sun taken away. “This is no disrespect to the Game, we don’t know him, and it could have been anyone, but they’re upset that they lost?” he said. “You want to talk about upset, you want to talk about disrespect for sacrifice? Everyone has tried to keep our ideas, our dreams, our art, down, and there was no reason for that, because our art is love, too.” For Taylor, taking the top spot is the ultimate middle finger to an industry he feels holds his band in disdain, and the victory and continued succ

On the Charts: Carrie Underwood Rules Debuts, “American Idol” Kingdom

The Big News: Carrie Underwood continued her quest to become the most successful American Idol ever, as her new album Carnival Ride cruised to the top of the Billboard charts with 527,101 copies sold in its debut week. By comparison, Kelly Clarkson, Underwood’s closest AI competitor, sold 291,000 copies when My December debuted in June. Underwood dominated her fresh competition, selling 400,000-plus more copies than the number two, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss’ Raising Sand. Country’s Gary Allan took the third spot, while System of a Down’s Serj Tankian’s first solo album Elect the Dead scored fourth with 65,998 copies. Debuts: Prog-revivalists Coheed & Cambria’s No World For Tomorrow entered the chart at number six with 61,849 units shifted while Neil Young’s Chrome Dreams II grabbed the eleven hole and Say Anything’s double-disc In Defense Of the Genre debuted at twenty-seven with 24,750. Further down the chart, Ryan Adams’ new EP Follow The Lights came in at forty, while Ween’s La Cucharacha came in at a fitting (for the band in question) sixty-nine. RS Breaking Artist Hurricane Chris hit the chart at twenty-four. Last Week’s Heroes: Defending champion Bruce Springsteen’s Magic tumbled on down to twelve, thanks to a thirty-four percent sales drop. Last week’s runner-up, Kid Rock’s Rock N Roll Jesus, stayed in the top ten by grasping on to seven. The remainder of the chart, sans debuts, stayed relatively the same, but we expect changes by this time next week, when Britney Spears’ Blackout and the new Backstreet Boys album should factor into the equation.
