"Coheed and Cambria get back to basics on The Unheavenly Creatures and drill down into exactly what makes Coheed and Cambria work best as a band".

"Throughout The Unheavenly Creatures, Coheed and Cambria incorporate structures, approaches, riffs, hooks, and progressions from their two-decade lifespan. These deliberately underscore and propel the album's sophisticated narrative. Despite all the self-referentiality, the music and story move ever forward. This return to the Amory Wars concept is welcome. Even the few seemingly out of place moments are deliberate diversions to reward longtime fans. That said, in an era of renewed appreciation for prog metal in general, this offering should draw legions of new listeners".

"Coheed & Cambria vender tilbage til Amory Wars-universet i hvad der mest af alt virker som et nyt kapitel i sagaen. Et velskrevet og velkomponeret kapitel".

"Nothing on Creatures is shorter than four minutes, from the foreboding, guitar march of "Queen of the Dark" to the muted pluck of "Love Protocol" that heads for the stratosphere in its chorus. If the elements at play feel pretty familiar for Coheed and Cambria, there's a fresh energy imbued in these songs to keep it all feeling lively. And sure, make what you will of the multi-album Amory Wars concept (there's a book and comics that expand on the grander narrative). On a song-by-song basis, Sanchez leans into human moments to ground his bigger ideas in connection or struggle. That helps keep the more galactic concepts well-grounded".
