Conceptual US prog rockers Coheed and Cambria have shared a video for new standalone single, Blind Side Sonny.

The ballsy rocker is the first taste of the band's follow-up to 2022's  Vaxis Act II: A Window Of The Waking Mind, the latest installment of the band's long-running Armory Wars/Vaxis saga, introducing a brand new villain into the concept.

"Blind Side Sonny is a song about revenge," explains mainman Claudio Sanchez. "What may seem like an innocent choice to someone could be the breeding ground of another’s malicious misunderstanding. Perception can be your worst enemy."

The band have recently completed a US tour with alt.rockers Incubus and are set to head to Australia where they will headline the progressively minded Monolith festival alongside fellow prog acts Periphery, Leprous, Intervals and more.

There are currently no further details on the band's next album.
