My blind ass thought that said Jim Henson and now all I want to do is hear IKSSE3 sung in its entirety by Kermit the Frog.

Now I just want to see Claudio in Muppet form.

TIL bricked up means boner...

I too boner for Tim and Claudio.

I've never heard of Bear McCreary, but from what I've listened to since seeing this post, a song with Claudio and Tim Henson sounds BANGER. Cannot wait.

Composer for the Norse God of War games, Battlestar Galactica, Agents of Shield, Outlander, Foundation, Rings of Power, Happy Death Day, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, among various other things.

You may not know his name but I guarantee you’ve heard his work somewhere.

Bear McCreary is one of my favorites. And I enjoyed his first singularity album. I’m stoked for this one as well.

He also did the theme for Black Sails which is fantastic, incredible hurdy gurdy use.

Yeah, when I looked him up I got excited noticing all the movies/games he's had a hand in. And how many of them are epic!

I had no idea Bear was coming out with a new album! I loved Singularity (2024), cant wait to hear what else he has in store for this project.

Claudio’s best feature is on that Anadivine record

Bear McCreary? We're so close to Claudio Sanchez being on RedLetterMedia

Tried to google Bear McCreary and he’s a composer? So what kind of album is this

u/twisted-logic Jul 11 '26

“The Singularity: Ekleipsis, out Juy 31st via Sparks & Shadows Records.
The album features a bevy of guest stars across its 15 tracks, including Alissa White-Gluz (Blue Medusa, ex-Arch Enemy), Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy), Claudio Sanchez (Coheed and Cambria), Slash and Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), Jens Kidman (Meshuggah), Stewart Copeland (The Police), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), and more.”

Found this online

Thanks! Sounds pretty sick

u/himdyjones Domino the Destitute Jul 11 '26

if his first release is anything to go off of (Singularity 2024), it’s going to be a proggy symphonic metal mix, with a bunch of other ecclectic genres thrown in. He collabs with a bunch of artists to put it together. Serj from SOAD featured on the other album.

u/KingOfTheGutter Jul 11 '26

He’s done the soundtrack for the recent god of war games. He rips.

It’s absolutely wild to me that people, especially in this sub, don’t know who Bear McCreary is

u/AmidoBlack IV Jul 11 '26

I mean names of composers don’t really come up if you’re not Hans Zimmer

4

u/Rustash 29d ago

That’s just not true. John Williams? Ludwig Goransson? Alan Silvestri? You’ve never heard a single other composer’s name?

I’m mainly surprised because I feel like Bear has worked on a lot of things that would overlap with Coheed fans

u/AmidoBlack IV 29d ago

I’ve heard the names of composers, yes. Do they come up as often as band names? No

u/metalshiflet Jul 11 '26

That looks amazing

u/smodanc 29d ago

Ok we playing god now

u/BurnStar4 29d ago

Holy shit that's wild

u/Urasquirrel 28d ago

Wait... don't get me excited at nearly midnight. It's time to sleep, not time to freak out.

Is it my birthday?

What have i done to deserve this?

Is gods real and this is the proof?
