Artist Friendly with Joel Madden | Claudio Sanchez

Claudio Sanchez of Coheed and Cambria on creating music to work through emotions, using worldbuilding in comic books to honor loved ones, and the band’s upcoming single, “Blind Side Sonny.”

[@danielflorio4739]

Coheed is a band for prog rock fans, metal fans, punk fans, pop fans. They have everything in their music. Love their progression through the years.

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Thanks for regular support and love

[@Corntron5000]

been a coheed fan all along, their newest shit is so good. Put headphones on and listen to The Joke turned up and tell me that aint THE SHIT!

[@aeowendarling]

Claudio has such a sweet, beautiful soul. I am forever in awe of his creativity and talent.

[@AwesomeLifeEntertainment]

One of the most creative musicians ever

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

I celebrate you man

[@BigRed241]

Man I've liked coheed since I heard them on guitar hero in 2007. But after I read the Amory wars, i became obsessed with their music. Such a small universe captivated me. I can just whack an album on and let my mind drift off to heavens fence.

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Your regular support keep me going,much love for you

[@wildmatador]

Coheed the greatest band in the world

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

You are great too, thank you

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Much love man

[@XXgoblinmonkeyXX]

100% agree with Claudio on using media to communicate . He's been one of my favorite people since 2001.

[@macrolfing1787]

I have grown with Coheed and Cambria. Claudio has altered my existence in the most positive way.

[@fleshboundtobone]

Coheed means the world to me. I love the music so much. I learned the guitar only to learn Coheed songs.

[@barrettwissell9708]

same 😂😅

[@matthewneubart8311]

I have always been connected to second stage and the armory wars. I am in recovery from heroin addiction as well. So amazing how this band has truly touched on what became the 1990-2000’s opiate epidemic. Thank you Claudio for putting this out there

[@thelokster]

IDK if he states it here but the dragonflies in the SSTB story arc are representative of heroin use IIRC. And that his pops had an issue IRL

[@magnitude_10]

This is so cool

[@cotfdevin]

Can’t wait for the full episode. Claudio rocks!

[@StivianK]

Good Charlotte and Coheed and Cambria Woooooo never would I ever thought this would happened , in a million years. I love to cover all your music still. Love you guys Thank you for sharing your art all this time. :)

[@elroywrong]

I can still remember the day my dad got me in keeping secrets. he thought it was something weird and didn't want to get it for me and the guy at record and tape traders said nah man it's like modern rush and he was good with that. still my favorite band. have a giant ambellina on my arm I'm super proud of lol.

[@TheActionCobblestone]

Claudio is the fucking man. He has been such a source of inspiration. Great to see Joel really conversing and understanding where he’s coming from. Keen to see the whole interview

[@phillipjackson2877]

When I first discovered Coheed in 2006 I had no Idea that Claudio had comics also. The comics are great but I fell in love with the music first and this will forever be my favorite band

[@MikeisLegend]

Joel talked way more than Claudio hahah

[@PokeArtGuy]

This is my first time watching Joel talk and I will say, I feel like he talks a lot, but it works with Claudio. He said himself he didn't want to be the front man. These dudes are way too chill when they're together. Great interview. Thanks guys.

[@PokeArtGuy]

*edited* I thought you said Josh not Joel lol Josh is the mouth of the band for sure

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

I appreciate your support and love

[@UrsusGrett]

I know... i kind of wish he allowed Claudio to talk more, but it is still interesting.

[@Tmoney0709]

Cohead is the greatest most complex band ever, they hit so many aspects of music is absolutely insane. I hate broadway but if Claudio turns an album into a broadway musical I would be front row.

[@kylemotty5951]

Eh, gentle giant takes the complexity cake.

[@yourdaddy9622]

“Most complex”? Bro… you know tech metal is a thing right? They are great musicians, but whoa… slow down bud lol

[@Brauers_BallHogs]

Dream Theater?

[@iCXRUX]

I love Coheed. Used to fall asleep every night to In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth 3

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Lol, this is funny but we all love our fans, we appreciate you

[@NickyNightHawk]

Bought second stage turbine blade when it came out feel in love and I've bought EVERY album since on release day lol and seen them countless times Coheed will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart 🖤

[@samarria777]

I was at the SF concert with coheed & incubus. I loved it!

[@benjaminvillarreal1499]

The dude from my favorite band as teen talking to the dude from my favorite band as an old man. Let's do it.

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Thanks for being a regular fan,❤

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

You are one of the realest fans

[@LINAKAWAGUCHI-p9c]

Watching this after attending the concert in Riverside is so wholesome 😌

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Your love and support keep me going momma, thank you

[@mb4456]

Claudio is Peak Cool I wish there was more of him in this video

[@CraigJrHeartsill]

Omg I miss Claudio started playing guitar bc of him in 2001 and then I picked up my herion habit at 17 and lost myself until 3 years ago need to get back into it

[@kreativ_corals]

great interview. Wish he let Claudio talk a little more, he's the only reason I clicked on the video

[@Legomygreggo]

Yeah Nyack! That was the scene in high school. Olives, the playhouse, the back door. Great times

[@UrsusGrett]

People have no idea how amazing coheed is because a lot of em can't get passed claudios voice. It's such a shame. I've converted a few people, but will never stop. They are my favorite band.

[@Itryhardder]

May as well have called this "Joel Madden talks about himself at Claudio Sanchez" and it ends abruptly almost mid sentence lol

[@el4984]

claudio sanchez is a musical genius. claudio, travis, zach, josh are all amazing.

[@shredula8633]

Claudio has the coolest kicks in the cave!!

[@nickdefazio207]

cool dude and amazing bands

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

@nickdefazio207, thanks for supporting me

[@kylec1411]

Love ya Claudio. You guys rock so many genres. Your music changed me. Thank you. Guys a beautiful soul for sure. All the band members tho. Truly.

[@SKSalmeida]

Good shit dude great interview

[@nsross23]

Cool video of Joel talking the entire time

[@stewartdavidson9044]

A friend gave me a burned CD of SSTB... I have loved this band since.. the albums with out Josh are a little iffy.. but now that he is back they are absolutely killing it

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Thanks for the love, did you enjoy the album?

[@guudbyenme3399]

Claudio: I'm a massive introvert. This set: Chairs so close together that two grown men have to actively avoid touching knees. Also Claudio: Can't make eye contact for the entire interview because the set is so uncomfortable. Me: What are they doing to my boy???

[@marcelinodelfin1747]

The only question I have is...when will Amory Wars the movie or series happen? Still looking forward to this.

[@floridaman5000]

I saw Coheed with Incubus last month in Tampa and all I can say is that Coheed's sound is meant for arenas.

[@KjtheGreatPro]

Pretty dope!!!

[@Bigcatsvinyl]

This needs to be like an hour long

[@TheActionCobblestone]

It’s on Spotify and yes it’s 57min haha

[@thetorvic23]

where is the full interview? this was literally only 15 mins lol

[@casave9682]

Anybody else discovered them as a kid from those PsP demo discs?

[@Ottophil]

My singer played wiffle ball in the rain with coheed.

[@daveallen2906]

I won a radio contest around 2011 to play wiffle ball against Coheed. One of the best days of my life 100%

[@cattty2221]

My kid is 16 & into tool & he likes time consumer. I went to the incubus coheed show. Coheed shirts were sold out

[@SeannKirby]

Good interview. Going to start closing my eyes when I speak to everyone too.

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Lol, why do you have to start closing your eye, I appreciate your comments, thanks for the love

[@TheTruluv]

Does anyone know that intro song before the interview started- Please 🧐🙏🏽

[@elftower907]

if only id gotten into CandC when i got into GC

[@elftower907]

funny how this popped up when im in shame for my own addictions

[@MarioLamRedRebel]

I love Coheen and Gambia..... They are the best 🤟🤟🤟 they talked about fathers being there heroes...... That i dont have: my father was a bad drunk and a peace of 💩 that dont pay his rent and other things to keep a roof above the head of his children. Alcohol was his down fall.

[@kylegordon00]

Where's the rest of the interview?

[@VideInfra]

Is there more from the interview?

[@GATAGEAR]

Cool

[@mpg0034]

Is Joel gonna ask some questions or talk about himself

[@CamelBackGames]

I love Joel but damn he talked to much for the interview to be for Claudio

[@dustingregoire7201]

Joel ruins what could’ve bn a cool conversation with a 🐐

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

I appreciate the love and support

[@MatteBlackEverything]

Soooooooo.... Coheed and Cambria x Good Charlotte tour? Not sayin, Jus sayin. Ya know? 🙏

[@piggest8801]

Claudio seems so stoned in this sometimes

[@edwardokelso]

Does Claudio talk at all in? Came here for him not the other dude

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

Thanks for the love and support

[@davemartinez5840]

Bad interviewer.. bad, unclear, unformulated questions

[@Cathie-u2s]

Claudio looks tired

[@austinplaisance4456]

I'm sure he is, tourings tough

[@JoelMadden-fan-page]

He was really tired anyways, but we enjoyed the show, thanks to all our fans, we love you guys
