"Ten Speed (Of God's Blood & Burial)" is a song by rock band Coheed and Cambria from their 2005 album Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness. It is the third single from the album. The band requested that fans come to Los Angeles to appear in the video, which was released summer 2006, in Europe.

In the Good Apollo graphic novel, Ten Speed is the manifestation of the Writing Writer's evil thoughts in the form of a bicycle. Ten Speed tries to convince the Writer to kill off a character named Ambellina. Ambellina is a Prise who is sent to watch over the story's main character, Claudio Kilgannon. The Writer discovers that Ambellina is based on his own cheating ex-girlfriend, Miss Erica Court, and to get over her, he must kill off the Ambellina character.

A cover version of the song is available as a downloadable track to play on the rhythm video game Rock Band as of January 29, 2008 making it the second playable song by Coheed and Cambria, the other being Welcome Home. [1] Because of the complex recording, the master track is impossible to be implemented. A cover version by WaveGroup was used.
