Mega Man III [GB] - Walkthrough
Megaman III Author: Ice T. Gressa and Panterror Flames Email: email@example.com and firstname.lastname@example.com Remake of FAQ we made in '92 Table of Contents -Introduction -Controls -Cast of Characters -Story -Enemies -Bosses -Items -Weapons -Walkthrough =============================================================================== INTRODUCTION =============================================================================== Just like its NES counterpart, Megaman series aka Rockman's World series is running strong with its 3rd installment which pits you against the remaining robots from Megaman 3 and four robots from Megaman 4 and with every game comes a new rival, this time it's punk. We also see the return of a familiar enemy, Suzy. =============================================================================== CONTROLS =============================================================================== Buster Shot and most weapons: press B Jump: Press A Climb ladders: Up or Down when overlapping one to grab then use up or down to climb. Slide: down and A Mega Buster: hold A and release =============================================================================== CAST OF CHARACTERS =============================================================================== () =serial number/order of creation Megaman (001) - Known as Rockman in Japan. This blue bomber is the hero of the series. Originally made for housekeeping, Rock (as he was called) volunteered to become a fighter when Dr. Wily took control of 6 of the original 8 robots made by Dr.Light/Right Debut Appearance: Megaman 1 NES (1987) Dr. Albert Wily - he is one mad scientist. He creates the bosses from Megaman 2 on. He used to be a good guy then got jealous of Wily and reprogrammed 6 of the original 8 robots (7 out of 9 original robots if you count Protoman). Try, try, try as he might, he can never defeat Megaman. Debut Appearance: Megaman 1 NES (1987) Rush - Megaman's dog companion that helps Megaman in his adventures by becoming a jet, spring, or submarine. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ MEGAMAN 3 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ =============================================================================== Story =============================================================================== 4 robots from Megaman 3 and Megaman 4 return =============================================================================== Enemies =============================================================================== Metall: Invincible when helmet is down but when it lifts its helmet, it will shoot 3 bullets in a 3-way pattern (straight, diagonal up, and diagonal down). Shoot them when they begin to shoot. Upndown: They like to hop out of pits when the player is nearby and force the player to fall to its doom Elecn: They come out of tubes in Sparkmans stage and they look like plugs. They touch their arms together and makes a 8-way pattern. Walking Bomb - They run around and explode when shot dead. Bomber Pepe - They hop towards the player and spit bouncing balls that explode after a few seconds Horogran - They cause the background to turn black with stars in the background but its dangerous as it can hide pits and spikes. Parasyu - floats down on a parachute and swings left and right on the way down. Dada - a bouncing garbage bot in Snakeman stage. Petit Snakey - Snake heads that spit bullets Giant Snakey - Bigger version of Petit snakey that appears only twice Pitton - they fly over Megaman and try to divebomb on him Garyoby - a gabyoall type enemy with a buzzsaw on it Pickelman Dada - uses a jackhammer motion to attack you or charge you with its dirt digger. Elecn - comes out of chutes and touches it arms together for a ring of sparks. =============================================================================== Bosses =============================================================================== These bosses are from Megaman 3 and Megaman 4 Sparkman He hops around and when he stops, he will touch his arms together and send 8 tiny sparks at you in an 8-way pattern then creates a huge spark and throw it at you. Snakeman Snakeman runs back and forth no matter what. Some time within his run, he will stop and throw snakes at you and that's all there is to him. Geminiman At the beginning of the fight, he'll split in two (actually make a copy of himself hence the name Geminiman). They take turns running in circles consisting of running to the right then at the end, jumping to the left. They will stop in their tracks even in midair and the one on the ground will shoot at you every time you shoot. After one is defeated, the other one runs around doing small jumps and shoots a Gemini Laser that bounces of the walls, floor, and ceiling 4 tmes. Shadowman This is one hard dude to fight. He hops around 4 times then he will either side or throw Shadow Blades at you. Be careful while fighting this guy. He is not as hard as his NES counterpart though. Dustman Dustman throws trash at you that splits into 4 then tries to suck you in. Drillman is your best choice here. Skullman He has the best theme music in this game. He'll shoot normal shots at you then activate his Skull Barrier. When he lets his shield down, he will charge you. Get him Dustman. Diveman Diveman likes to charge a lot and send missiles. Use Skullman to beat him. Activate the Skull Barrier and try to touch him with it and hopefully not your body. Drillman He likes to burrow a lot. When he goes underground, do not stand still. Move around and he'll pop up. He'll also attack with Drill Bombs so watch out for those too. Dive Missiles will put an end to his chaos. Punk: Original boss Get this. He has the ability to destroy you with only 3 hits so you definitely gotta be on your toes. When he rolls into a ball, slide or jump over him and watch out for Screw Chasers. =============================================================================== Items =============================================================================== Life up - small one gives 2 bars of life and the big one gives 10 bars Weapon up - same as above except for weapons 1-up - Extra life =============================================================================== Weapons =============================================================================== Spark Shock - obtained from Sparkman. Has the ability to freeze some enemies in their tracks. Search Snake - obtained from Snakeman. Scales the floors and then the walls. 2 uses will use one bar. Gemini Laser - obtained from Geminiman. Bounces off of walls and floors continuously for a few seconds. Sometimes the laser will break into pieces and continue reflecting Shadow Blade - obtained from Shadowman. Works like a throwing star and boomerang in one. A good weapon in our opinion. 2 uses us up one bar. Dust Crusher - obtained from Dustman. Upon impact, the Dust Crush will split into 4 pieces. Dive Missile - obtained from Diveman. Send out a homing missile that will track the enemy's movements if it is vulnerable to the Dive Missiles. Skull Barrier - obtained from Skullman. A barrier surrounds you and will protect you from one hit. Drill Bomb - Throw a drill that explodes on impact. Press B to make it explode in air. It can destroy barriers. Screw Chaser - obtained from Punk. You got a lot of these at your disposal. 19 of them for every one bar. You basically lob them at your foes. Rush Coil - obtained from Sparkman. Use it to reach higher platforms you can't reach normally by jumping Rush Jet - obtained from Dustman. Fly over normally impassable pits. =============================================================================== Walkthrough =============================================================================== To begin with, you have the option of starting off with Snakeman, Sparkman, Shadowman, and Geminiman. Note: You don't have to choose the bosses in our order. Sparkman We start off with Sparkman. Jump through the Electric Gabyoall when they are not active then climb the ladder. Kill the Pickelman Dada and climb up again. Carefully get past more Electric Gabyoall and shoot a block in the way and hop over the pit carefully. Shoot two Elecns and climb the ladder. Dispose of the Hammer Joe and keep going up. Dispose of the Pickelman Dada and move right. You can't get the E-Tank till you return to the stage with the Rush Coil. It's safer to slide off the lifts than jumping so you can avoid the spikes above. After the last one, get past the Electric Gabyoall and dispose of a Hammer Joe ad fall down a long shaft lined with spikes on the sides. There are tme bombs that explode after three seconds and leave a radius after landing on them. Jump away from the radius and keep falling. Slide in two narrow passages and shoot the obstructing blocks and get past the lift and destroy another obstructing block and jump over a pit. Destroy one more block then fall. Kill a Hammer Joe and keep falling. One Elecn, Electric Gabyoall, and Hammer Joe later and off to face Sparkman you go. --------------- Boss Fight: Sparkman If you chose not to fight Sparkman first, use Shadow Blades to beat him. Otherwise, have full energy and get in six charged shots and a single bullet to defeat him. Avoid his Megaspark and hexasparks and jumps to survive this encounter.

Take out three Babukan MkIIs and climb the ladder to meet Eddy and get an item and continue climbing upwards. Kill the Petit Snakeys and wait for the Pittons to move away before jumping over the pit. Kill all enemiesand climb the ladder. Use the upper platforms for cover before climbing up. Kill the Hammer Joe and keep moving up. It'll be hard o get but you can get the E-Tank if you watch the Ladder Presses caefully. kill the pittons and dadas as you move right and get ready to take Snakeman out. --------------- Boss Fight: Snakeman He runs back and forth and will ocassionally attack with Search Snakes. Pelt him with seven Spark shocks to make him die. A0,B0,B3,D0,D1 --------------- Geminiman Geminiman is your next stp. Yambo and Bomber Pepes attack viciously already. Get through them and drop at the end. The Pickelan Dada hops this time. Slide under it then drop down and move right. Avoid the Yambos as they charge at you and hop over the spikes. Kill a Bomb Pepe and fall down, ignore the Yambo and kill a Mecha Kero and keep falling. Use the Rush Coil to get to the top and use a Charged Buster to get rid of the eggs and the Poles that emerge at the same time then climb up two ladders while killing the Mecha Keroes en route. Avoid the Yambos and shoot the Giant Pepe in the gear on its head then kill another then drop down. Avoid the Yambos and go for the Mecha Keroes carefully. Clear the spikes and Geminiman is ahead. --------------- Boss Fight: Geminiman Geminiman splits in two hence the name Geminiman since Gemini repesents twins. They will both shoot each time you shoot. 3 search snakes will kill the clone then its all o nohing as you avoid the Gemini Laser and use a few more Search Snakes en route to victory. A2,B1,C3,D2,D3 --------------- Shadowman Finally, off to tackle Shadowman. Detonate the bombs as you fall and kill a Mecha Kero at the bottom.

Jump over his Shadow Blades and keep hitting him then take the collision hit if you can then finish him off from the other side. A2,B1,B2,C0,C1 --------------- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You have defeated all Mega Man 3 bosses (the ones appearing in Mega Man 3 for the NES).

Climb four screens and be sure to use Shadow Blades to get rid of the Metalls on each screen and clear the spikes then on the third screen up then on the fourth screen, shoot away the blocks to make room to get through to avoid getting sashed by the compressor above going up and down. Climb down two screens at the end and get past the Shield Attacker on the first one. Hop the spikes and hop the pits while killing Upndowns and kill the Gachappon by schoking it with a Spark Shock then switching to another weapon. Hop the pit and if you started with Dustman, you don't have the Drill Bombs so ignore the 1-up and move on. Hop the pits and climb two ladders then destroy a Shield Attacker and climb up. Kill a Gachappon an continue. You'll have to let the Shield Attacker hit you to clear the next set of spikes but if you think you can get across without damage, go for it. Just be sure to use Rush Cool in the right spot after disposing of the Shield Attacker then use it again to get to the ladder. Take the low road for a large life power up then slide back and take the high road and kill a Jumbig and climb down Take the right path and wait for the hopping Metall to fall and work all the way down and kill a Shield Attacker and now its time to take on Dustman, finally. --------------- Boss Fight: Dustman Use Drill Bombs to take him out and avoid his hops and the Dust Crusher by jumoing over it and stalling while directly above as it splits.

Reach the ladder carefully while killing Mantans. There is good ol Eddy. Get the item and keep climbing up. The water rises and falls here. Be careful as you go through Mantans abd spikes and mines and M422As. Now its time to fall one screen carefully.

@dragonjones Just little old me at Top Gear with two very funny people (Bill Bailey and Louis Spence)... http://twitpic.com/1vlr3d@dragonjones Can't say anything about today but watch Top Gear, new series, later this month. @ajhmurray was there, the legend that is The Pub Landlord
So far, Peter Jones, Louie Spence, Bill Bailey and supposedly Al Murray have done it. My oh my how celebrity has changed over 4 years...
I guess, with the new car and everything, they will get a bunch of "celebs" down to the track to set some laptimes. Otherwise the laptimeboard would be so empty. (just like when they switched from the liana to the lacetti)
Yeah definitely, since they're outside with the lap time board and everything.
Jones said about 8-10 celebs were trying it out. The last time they did it, they only had 7. I'm curious which other celebs showed up.
Someone on Twitter mentioned meeting James today on the Isle of Man. He wouldn't say why he was there, so no confirmation it has anything to do with Top Gear. But they are still filming for the current series, so it could very well be. I do hope so, I love it when they are out there.
They're still filming? WTF?
Not even sure if it is Top Gear related, but still:
Posted by @adamskib I have just seen a GT40, an Aston Martin and a Ferrari on the M1... I wonder where james may and co are, it seems to fit them!!
31 minutes ago via Twitter for iPhone
Could just be three rich sods on their way to Birmingham.
Anyway, James on the radio said he'd done his last piece of filming for this series of TG already (see Bugatti Veyron thread).
Next series maybe..
From @Bungleduck, posted today:
and from Wikipedia :OMG. Walking into a venue in Bracknell and James May held the door for me! Then saw Jeremy Clarkson havin a fag talking to Richard Hammond!
Edit: another post from @Bungleduck:Bracknell is a town in the Bracknell Forest borough of Berkshire, England. It lies 18 kilometres (11 mi) to the south-east of Reading, 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) southwest of Windsor and 53 kilometres (33 mi) west of London.James May just gatecrashed the wedding I'm at...came on the dancefloor laid on a trolley! Try to upload pic
Glad to read that James is still a gentleman.

Well only if he placed a doily on the trolley before he laid on it.Glad to read that James is still a gentleman.

Police Search for Credit Card Fraud Suspect
Wichita Falls Police on the hunt for fraud suspect
Wichita Falls Police on the hunt for fraud suspect
Mailing addressed to "Lisa Is A Slut McIntire" explodes on Twitter.
Approximately 40 million credit and debit card accounts used by Target customers may have been impacted by a major data breach, the retailer said Thursday. Customer names along with credit and debit card numbers may have been accessed, as well as the expiration date and three-digit security code on the back of each card, the store said.
Recent reports indicate that the majority of the time when your credit card company calls you to inquire about potentially fraudulent activity on your account, it is not an attempt to sell you additional products and services. Rather, it is a real security warning. and going forward you might want to start answering those calls.
Have an American Express card that you never leave home without? You can expect a refund.
According to a report by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, American Express will be refunding $85 million to some 250,000 customers due to what officials are calling deceptive practices that include the charging of illegal late fees and discrimination against applicants 35 years old and up.
For nearly a decade, American Express was guilty of committing various infractions against its card owners that cheated customers into believing they were obtaining benefits like sign-up bonuses and improved credit scores that never came to pass.
Do you have a Discover card? If so, you can expect to receive a refund.

After the Big Bosch Laser Bonanza that we had going on a little bit ago, we thought we'd never want to write another word about laser levels. But we got to talking to the folks at Johnson Level and Tool and they suggested that we test out their new Self-Leveling Cross Line Laser. We had a bunch of projects coming up that would be perfect testing grounds and we were really impressed with their Laser Level and Angle Locator so we happily agreed.
We can hardly even bring ourselves to talk about this one. After a month of us wading through about a million reader reviews of the Bosch GLL2-80 Dual Plane Line Laser, the German company has the audacity to release the GLL3-80 360 Line Laser. Like the name suggests, there are now three, not two, laser lines projected from the tool. As with the older model, the new one's mojo is centered around the very cool Cone Mirror Technology (explained here).
And that third laser sure costs a whole lot of money; $230 to be exact. Ohio Power Tool is selling the three-beam for $500 while the the GLL2 for about $270.
At Ohio Power Tool
Check out the press release after the jump...
The digital world has made a beachhead and now seems to be in the process a full-fledged invasion into the dusty universe of the construction site. Laser levels, which used to be the exception, are now the rule. In addition, there are all kinds of measuring devices and task-specific layout lasers that have recently hit the scene. And on top of all this, a couple of digital angle finders have shown up. Among them, the Johnson Digital Laser Level and Angle Locator. Johnson was nice enough to send us one to take a look at.
So what exactly does this tool do?
Well, it does a lot actually. Where to start....
We've been impressed with most of the laser review thus far, but this one brings 'thoroughness' to a previously unseen level. Reader Eric does a nice comparison to a few other models on the market. He also explains the economics behind Bosch not including a receiver with the level (a criticism levied by a few other reviewers). Read on for a little head to head to head to head level action...
In my current occupation as a Energy Auditor and Home Consultant I don't have the need to use lasers as much as I did when I was a draftsman or carpenter but I did put the Bosch GLL2-80 features to the test and compared them to what I have experienced in the past. My first experience with a dual axis rotary laser was years ago when I purchased a Porter-Cable/RoboToolz RT-7690, the Porter-Cable is one of 3 tools I compared the Bosch laser to; the other two a DeWalt DW082 mainly for size comparison, and lastly a ZipLevel by Technidea for what a laser level can't do.
We took a little break from our Bosch-a-palooza laser review extravaganza, but now we're back with it, lead by reader Brian B. who, like many others, has something to say about what's included in the package....
When I first got the Bosch GLL-2 80 Laser Level I was stoked. I am finally done struggling with my crappy $15 laser pointer with a line painter lens and a bubble all on a mini tripod tool. (See Photo) Even describing that thing is annoying and time consuming just like using it.
Water levels are great. They're cheap (all you need is a piece of tubing), accurate (water finds its own level, duh), and can accomplish things that the most expensive laser levels can't (going around corners). The only drawback is that they require two people; one on one end of the tube and one on the other end of the tube.
We saw the Zircon WL25 in a store today and thought it was worth a mention, if for the only reason that it brings this ancient technology into present day by adding some electronics and in the process removes 50% of the workforce needed for operation.
It looks like what you do is hang the level where you want it and once you're around the corner, the level lets out a noise when the water reaches the pre-established spot.
The reviews at Amazon are actually pretty luke warm, with some complaints about the noise as well as the accuracy of the sensor.
There are two versions available; one with just 25' of tube and the sensor piece, the other is the 'pro' version with the tube, the sensor, easy fill nozzles, and a coupling so you can attach the tube to a length of garden hose.
Basic kit $25 at Amazon.com
Pro kit at Sears $40 at Sears
Yet another round of the Bosch reader reviews...here we see how the tool fares against an engineer...
As an engineer for an industrial wood products manufacturer and a part time "handyman" for friends and family I'm exposed to a variety of projects that until a couple weeks ago could have been accomplished more efficiently had I already had a Bosch GLL2-80 laser level. I purchased a different brand laser level years ago that was not self-leveling that was essentially worthless because the set up time to level it made it more trouble than it was worth.
When the Bosch GLL2-80 arrived I immediately took it out of the box, turned it on, and was very pleased to have level lines running throughout my house without the need for manual adjustment.
This time around, the Bosch gets the handyman treatment...
I, like others was both pleased and shocked when I opened the package from Bosch....pleased that I was selected to be a tester of the GLL2-80 and shocked when I opened the case and two thirds of it was empty. What else is supposed to be in there?
More successful hands on testing of the Bosch laser...but also more criticism of the lack of receiver in the package....read on...
I am a General Contractor that has a lot of remodel projects so i am use to things being out of level and out of plumb. Before i received the Bosch GLL2-80 i had been researching different lasers in preparation to purchase one. I have owned one other line level previously, it was a Christmas present from a relative and to say the least it was unreliable.
After a few minutes of playing with the Bosch and a quick glance of the owners manual the basic operation is quiet easy. I love how compact the case is, it is just the right size to win a permanent spot in the back seat of the truck.
The First job i took it on we were installing drywall over an old ceiling in a house build in the 1920's. So needless too say nothing was square. Usually i would get the chalk box out and pop a line where the edge of the drywall needed to be to take out any curves in the wall. But we use the GLL2-80 instead, we set the laser line and set each sheet to it.
In this installment of the ongoing Bosch Laser reader reviews, Jim E discusses the laser as well as what other items come in the box (or rather, what other items don't come in the box)...
Much like Richard K. from Florida, when I received my Bosch laser level courtesy of ToolSnob.com, I was surprised by the size of the carrying case, and thought to myself, "Well, that must be because, unlike other laser levels I've used, it comes with many helpful accessories, such as a tripod, laser receiver, etc." Unfortunately, that's not...well...the case. So let me get the negatives out of the way right away. The laser is kind of lonely in its large plastic caddy, as standard delivery does not include a tripod, laser viewing glasses (pretty essential in bright ambient light conditions), remote receiver for pulse mode, a smaller pouch to save tool shelf room, or (according to the manual) the very useful universal holder, which was included in the package sent to me for this review. If paying extra for some necessary accessories is not a problem, however, the Bosch GLL2-80 Laser Level is a great tool.

Sheryl and Nick had a beautifully fun wedding at the Brazilian Room in Tilden Park this October. Their personalities and joy just burst over to make everyone smile all day long.
We did a quick first look - Nick was so happy to see his beautiful bride (and vice versa)!
I think these two were laughing at least half the day, love it:
The weather had been really iffy, but it cleared up and was warm and sunny. I think it was the last great October day, and some moisture in the air just made it feel more like Hawaii than Berkeley! I love those Tilden Park vistas:
Beautiful florals by Local Flora, who do "green" florals. These were all sustainably, locally sourced and prepared:
Beautiful Sheryl!
I always love a touch of color (and green is my favorite):
It's nice to get ready for the ceremony together - these two had some sweet private time after we did the family portraits, and got a chanced to connect and get psyched before getting married.
The chuppah was decorated beautifully with unique florals and autumn colors. I really do love photographing autumn weddings!
Part 2 coming soon!

Best Coheed and Cambria Songs
The Top Ten
This song is EPIC. If you haven't heard it, do yourself a favor and go have a listen. I mean, I always though coheed and cambria was an overrated band. After I heard this... my god, it left me speechless. I wanna see them live!
Very good.
I don't know much about coheed and cambria, but I think that this song will be a classic in about twenty years.
All of their other stuff wont be known much, but this will live on.
This was probably one of the first rock songs that I listened to and I was nearly hypnotized! This song is what got me hooked on the whole genre. I listened to it MANY years ago and to this day it is still one of my favorite songs.
Superb RiffV 16 Comments
Tons of great songs to choose from, but this one inspires, rocks, and frightens. It is intense and keeps you coming back for more.
One of Coheed and Cambria's longer tracks, it's definitely an unforgettable one, the always find myself listening to it in it's entirety.
This song is a masterpiece, by far my favourite, full of emotion and powerful moments!
Amazing! Raw talent.V 3 Comments
An amazing example of their earlier works, with powerful lyrics and a grooving rhythm throughout. By far the catchiest, most well rounded song. I would recommend this to anyone new to Coheed as part of the first five songs you should hear: The Suffering, The Crowing, In Keeping Secrets, The Hard Sell and The Broken. Refrain from listening to Welcome Home and A Favor House Atlantic until much later.
How the hell is this not number one this is there biggest song without a doubt. It's the only son that gets radio play.
Reminds me of going on vacation with my family. I played this song constantly. Good memories - Jonerman
Never gets oldV 1 Comment
This should be number ONE. People that say Welcome Home are the people that ONLY know that song. They have dozens of songs better. Every song off Second Stage Turbine Blade and In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth:3 is better.
This is honestly the best song ever written. The emotion that comes out of this song is breathtaking. Mother Superior is the best taste of Coheed that one can get. The way the song progresses and builds up to that last minute is amazing. Ever heard the crowd sing that last bit at a Coheed show? Amazing.
When I first heard this song, I knew right from the start that this would become my favorite song from Coheed and Cambria.
Deffinitely my favorite of theirsV 3 Comments
The best song they do in my opinion, I understand its more punk rock then Coheed's normal style, but it shows the extent of their musical prowess by going into a different style and being better then just about everyone else.
Ralph, PA
Best song ever made by coheed and cambria. How come pearl of the stars isn't on this list? I cry when I listen to that song. All of their songs ar
This is ROCK! More rock that the others! This is what puts the sun in the sky even if it's raining. Yeah man!
From the Batman Arkham city album you HAVE to listen to this before you vote trust me you'll think it's their BEST!
Why is this not number one!? YOU GUYS HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS AND THEN YOU'LL REALIZE IT'S THE BEST!
This song is absolutely incredible. It changes pace so many times, but it still manages to keep that intense feeling throughout the almost 8 minute run time. And what an ending...
Amazing song, totally deserves to be in top 10!V 2 Comments
Even though Welcome Home is the best song, this gets my vote because of how amazing it really is
New song and I can't stand to not listen to it every day. Amazing song!
"Give them a fight that will open their eyes! "
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive
I'm alive
Gotta put this one as my #1. This one in particular has so much bite and passion to it, definitely gets me so pumped when I hear it.
What an amazing song.
What?!? Coheed and cambria I probably one of the most best bands I know! Amasing music, breath taking meaning to their songs. But I was positive this would be nere the top! Oh we'll I gues it's just my opinion :P I'm also curious why the crowing isn't in the top 10
The Contenders
Easily a top 10, probably top 5 Coheed song!
Why did I do to deserve THIS? I mean, I'm so happy listening to this song :D, Love Coheed and Cambria!V 1 Comment
These douchebag fans wouldn't know a good song if it bend them over and banged them all night long!
This song should easily be in the top ten
Musicianship at it's absolute finest! This incredibly beautiful and powerful song moves me to tears with its breathtaking skill and seeing it performed live is a religious experience!
EASILY TOPS. this song is out of control off the chain bonkers from the first beat till 7 minutes after its over!V 8 Comments
What?! Not even on the list! I love all of Coheed's songs, I can't specifically pick a favorite, but seriously, this song is incredible and so catchy!
Welcome Home is a brilliant song, and I praise it for giving Coheed and Cambria the attention and recognition they deserve, but believe me, it's not the best they have to offer.
The Crowing is one of the greatest songs from the definitive album of the legendary band Coheed and Cambria. Instead of opting to follow the typical verse-chorus-verse song structure so often followed by bands, The Crowing does a couple simple verses and choruses, then changes direction completely, with a long bridge and interlude section, before heading into the minute and a half outro, complete with an insane breakdown, that makes the song the incredible piece of art that it is. Not to mention, it is one of the trickiest songs guitar-wise that Coheed has ever written. My personal favorite, along with IKSOSE:3
This was the pinnacle song for me. Prior to hearing The Crowing, I had only ever heard A Favor House Atlantic due to its popularity on MTV at the time it was released. I didn't look further into the band until I heard this song as the credit music to an animation I'd watched, and I immediately wanted to listen to more material. Not only is the song dynamic in its tone, ranging from calm melodies to the harder ending, the lyrics fit well to the story told in The Amory Wars of the events leading up to the name of the song. Claudio is a fantastic singer, and this song definitely showcases how well he can create harmonies. Off the Beat also made a fantastic A Capella rendition, which this song so well deserves.
AMAZING SONG! I'm a drummer and it's one of the few rock songs that I can really enjoy playing along with. I love how much thought went into this song. The drums are just so tasteful, and I love how complex the drums are without the song sounding like a big drum solo. I know this is definitely centered from the drummer's perpective, but that's what I am so...
Should be #3, this list is WAY offV 5 Comments
Coheed does a lot of things very well, and sometimes their progressiveness get's lost on some people. However, I don't care who you are, if you are not tapping your foot and nodding your head by the end of this song, you must be deaf.
A Coheed song with rapid pacing, an awesome solo and a crazy, yet intriguing story. Arguably Coheed's best song in this type of structure!
I blast this song in my car every single day. Along with "Once Upon Your Dead Body" which isn't anywhere on this list? I'm outraged
so catchyV 3 Comments
The only ones who didn't vote for this song are the ones who haven't heard it yet. So catchy and just all-around a great song.
I love this song, especially I love the base part!
Nhl 09 memorable song
I love this song it catches people from different genres... it should be on the top 10... Coheed and cambria covering The Trooper from iron maiden should also be here laugh out loud ¥
I love all of these guys' songs but for some reason out of all of them this one just always sticks with me the most. If it wasn't this, it'd be Wishing Well II.
I like this music because it's so very rock in roll
VERY UNDErrated SONG. Give it a listen the whole way through. iTunes previews don't do justice.V 1 Comment
2nd coheed song I ever bought. Still remains to be one of my favourites.V 1 Comment
Loved this song since I first heard it!
Thanks all for sharing the best songs :) Made my life easier by picking the best ones.
This song has probably the best chorus Coheed's ever written, and the guitar part is sick.
