It is the first part of a double album, the second part of which is ''The Afterman: Descension''. The band took seven months to record the albums between 2011 and 2012, released a live acoustic version of "Key Entity Extraction V: Sentry the Defiant" (which appears on ''The Afterman: Descension'') in February 2012, and announced a release date of October 9 later that year. The first single was "Key Entity Extraction I: Domino the Destitute", released in August 2012. It is the first Coheed and Cambria album since 2005's ''Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness'' to feature Josh Eppard on drums, and the first to feature Zach Cooper on bass. The album received mainly positive reviews. The deluxe version of the album was released with a coffee-table book written by band member Claudio Sanchez and edited by Evil Ink Comics' Chondra Echert and Blaze James, intended to give a song-by-song experience of the concept album. The album follows the Amory Wars storyline, and concentrates on the character Sirius Amory. ==Background and recording== Coheed and Cambria began recording the double album in November 2011, and had finished recording by June 2012.
