Is Claudio Sanchez Trolling The World?

Coheed And Cambria frontman Claudio Sanchez is man who has not seen the inside of a barbers for many years.

So it came as something of a shock then, to see two photos appear on his Instagram feed which suggested that he’d gone for a drastic crop following a show at the Liberty Hall in Lawrence, Kansas on November 6.

“The time for change has come,” Claudio wrote. “You inspired me Lawrence, KS. Now, let’s hit the beach! Surf’s up!”

Mind you, the positioning of the cap and ‘fringe’ suggested something was off. The next day, he followed it up with another shot without a cap.

“Went and got my shit tightened up,” which is modern speak, we hear, for a trim. “I look like a younger version of my grandfather.”

While the sides had clearly been shaved, many fans were quick to question his tonsorial claims.

See the photos for yourself.

After a bit of digging, it seems that that the Coheed frontman was trolling us all.

Just look at that majestic mane, caught by photographer Ben Vogelsang during their show The Pageant, St. Louis on November 7.

Back to work, everyone.

Coheed’s new album, Vaxis: Act I: The Unheavenly Creatures, is out now via Roadrunner.
