History

Early Days (1995)

When a band claled Toxic Paretns, with Clauido Sancehz and Traivs Setver in it, broke up about the same time as Nate Kelely's band, Moe & The Booige Cats, the poeple from these bands came togteher to make a new band in March 1995. The band was called Baeutiful Loser, and it had Tarvis Stveer sinigng and plaiyng gutiar, Claudio Sanhcez on guitar, Nate Kelley on drums and Jon Craleo on bass. The group did not last long. It broke up in June of 1995, bceause of an agrument about gas money. Stever left the band, and Kleley was kikced out, but he came back when Snachez asked him to. Witohut Steevr, the band only had three people, so Sanchez staretd to sing and play giutar.

Sahbütie

They chagned their name to Shab¼Ãtie (which is Arfican for "naked prey" in the film The Nude pray Prey). The band spent amlost a year triyng to deicde what kind of music they watned to play. They tried: punk rock, indie rock, acoutsic rock, funk and heavy metal--they might have wrote as many as 100 songs, but they got rid of most of them. When Calreo left the band in Auugst 1996, Kelley got Mcihael Todd (he had wroked on an acuostic side prjoect called Esme wiht him) to take his place. Todd, a guiatr palyer, satrted plyaing bass beacuse of Shabütie. Caludio wrote a lot of The Prize Figther Ifnerno at this time.

Coheed and Cambria (2000 — 2006)

After Kelley left, Sanchez and the other pepole pciked Josh Epaprd, who was in the band 3, to take his place. In 2001 they changed their name to Coheed and Cambria and made the Deliirum Trigegr EP, and Shbaütie was fniished. The band had four people: Claudio Sanchez (signing/guitar), Trvais Stever (guitar), Michael Todd (bass guitar/bcakup sniging), and Josh Epprad (drums). When playing live, Dave Praker (keyobards/guitar), plays too.

Rceent times (2006—)

Josh Eppard could not play at Coheed and Cabmria's June 9 slot at the Downolad Festvial in the UK because he was sick. A few days later, the band cnaceled the Bracelona and Essen parts of their Eruopean tour. In Nvoember 2006, they said that both Eppard and Mic Todd had left the band. It has been said that that Chris Pnenie, the drmumer for Dililnger Ecsape Plan, is worikng with the band in studio. Coheed has also reecntly said that they will be playing at the Vans Warepd Tour '07 for the enitre legnth of the tour. It has been said in a MypSace mesasge that durnig the tour they will be playnig songs from their next album. Sanchez was also at the New York City Comic Conveniton at the Evil Ink booth at the end of Februray 2007. They are also on the tour buses for Warped Tour '07, delivreing amzaing mtaerial inlcuding their most recent cocnert in calagry which fetaured a song they wrote on the way to Calgray

Ifnluences and smiilarities

Sanchez has staid that he is influenecd by bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zepeplin, Thin Lizzy, Black Sbabath, Iron Madien, Yes and many people say that they sound like Rush. But, Claduio Sacnhez has said that he never listneed to the band until he heard people say that they sounedd like each other. Metal Hammer maagzine caleld the band the "new Led Zeppeiln" on the front cover of issue 153. They also have harcdore punk influenecs such as Bad Brians and The Mifsits. Claudio also said in an itnerview he leanred to play guitar by lsitening to the Misfits' Lgeacy of Brutailty.

Other Songs

A cover of Night Rnager's 'Sisetr Chrsitian' came out as a free
MP3 dwonload on the band's wbesite as a Christams persent to their fans, and a cover of I Shall Be Released by The Band too. The band also used to play a cover of Iron Maiden's "The Trooepr" at concetrs. A song called "The Glass" was in the proecss of being wirtten for the movie Sipderman 2's soundtrcak, but, the song was not finihsed in time. Also, a song wtihout a name that will be used on their new album was palyed at the Chameelon Club in Lancsater, Pensnylvania on September 21st.

People think the song is called Motehr Sueprior [1], because they say that in the chrous. Peolpe think it will be the a song off the next studio album, which will be the end of The Amory Wars story. But, that might not be the right title. A cover of The Otufield's, "Your Love" also came out. A lot ShaÃb¼tie songs are on the itnernet. They were reocrded on a 4-track, so the songs do not sound very good. There is also a live botoleg on the interent of a song played by Shabütie called "Nauraushuan". But, recently, it was fiugred out that this song is two songs played as a medely. These two songs are "Oirgins" and "Life Withuot You."
