Claudio Paul Sanchez III (12 Mar 1978 -)
Associated Acts: Shabütie (1995-2001), The Prize Fighter Inferno (1999-present), Coheed and Cambria (2001-present)
Vocal Range: E♭2 - A5
{Vocal Summary}With his piercing tenor vocals, unusual diction, and dense, conceptual lyrics, Claudio Sanchez has been the central driving force of Coheed and Cambria since its inception, as well as the main reason for the polarizing nature of much of their music. Often compared to Rush's Geddy Lee, Sanchez's voice started out very high-placed, with an effeminate tone that sounded incredibly comfortable in its upper register, Still, it seldom reached the wailing highs Geddy pulled off in his prime, with most of Claudio's extreme high notes coming in the form of backing falsettos or harsh screams. He would start exploring his lower range a bit more starting in the late 2000s, though despite the slight deepening of his voice with age, much of his second octave still tends to sound breathy and weak. Still, he is a talented, incredibly distinctive vocalist whose tone quality and versatility have grown greatly over the course of his career, and with multiple further albums in Coheed's latest sci-fi saga planned, he's clearly got a long road still left ahead of him.
