They are prog-related, a rock band that contains some elements of progressive rock.

In my opinion, a very good rock band with very few prog-rock elements.

Not for me, they still scream alternative whenever I listen. The only difference is they have a concept behind there works.

I just checked out part of the recent streaming track and it sounded alright to me, granted that's a really small sampling.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Personally, I don't think they belong on the site at all. But I can see why other people want them here.

I never really got into the concept because it seemed really gimmicky. I dig some of their tunes though.

So ... something that sounds "alternative" can not be prog?

Well, no, certainly not, a lot of oh say PT's stuff has the alternative sound, but there's more too PT then that. I have two of Coheed's albums and there just good alternative rock. Nothing more. I would never dare describe them as prog to someone.

^ which is why they're in the prog-related category. It seems like people just don't get it ... bands in that category are *not* prog.

Going back to " is it because of the comic book wich is parallel to the music albums"

 
Erm, I don't believe it is, I assume you mean that the three albums released thus far have followed the comic book story line, so are therefore are Concept albums. Concept albums are not universally restricted to Prog Rock - thee are numerous non-Prog concept albums.
 
Also, Claudio Sanchez's Amory Wars comic books are not as well known as the C&C albums, so it is unlikely that they figured in anyone's opinion of whether the music is Emo, Alternative, Prog or Prog-Related.

which is why these discussions are pointless.... those who show the site they have vision to see the big picture end up getting moved up and make the discussions . The admins most of all...who decide what goes in prog-related or not.  So in summation...  you have the right to opinion.. but not to say that this site is wrong.  I'll put  100 odd years of prog experience of the admin team against yours anyday hahhaha Wink
