This 2015 album marked a significant departure as Coheed and Cambria's first-ever concept-free, non-narrative-driven record, focusing instead on personal themes.

• The album was written and recorded following a period of significant personal turmoil for frontman Claudio Sanchez, including the loss of his father and the birth of his child.
• This was the first Coheed and Cambria album not to feature the character of "The Boy" or any other characters from The Amory Wars storyline.
• In interviews, Claudio Sanchez stated that the album's title came from a lyric he had written years prior and had been waiting for the right album to use it.

Coheed and Cambria is a progressive rock band from Nyack, New York, known for their dense concept albums and the high-pitched vocals of Claudio Sanchez. "The Color Before the Sun" was their seventh studio album and their first and only release on the independent label 300 Entertainment.
