The Mars Volta

Recommended Posts

I just discovered this group last week. I'm obsessed with the single off their new album. I can't stop playing it over and over again :P

I bought tickets to their Providence show in May. Any else a fan? Its good to hear groups that 'challenge' the musical mold.

I think I'm in love! :D

Get their first album, "deloused in the comatorium". It is awesome. Progressive rock without ever getting so wierd that you can't listen.
Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

I'm a big fan. Deloused in the Comatorium is indeed an awesome album, and in my opinion better than Francis the Mute.

I saw them in concert last year when they opened for A Perfect Circle. Hopefully I'll be able to see them again this year.

By the way...listen to track 1 of Frances the Mute immediately after listening to track 12. You'll like it.

I have to wait to the 22nd to get FtM :S Don't know why they release the vinyl versions so much later than the CD version... but whatever, I'll be excited when it arrives.

Its funny you should mention that. I picked up APCs new album 2 weeks ago and while going through the vinyl racks someone mentioned that if I liked them I'd like Mars Volta :D

They're touring on this new album. I can't wait til 5/7!! :)

At the Drive In became The Mars Volta.



That's not exactly true, but it's close enough. Both are great bands.

I would also like to point out that 2 years ago I was telling people on here to listen to the Mars Volta. Do a search and see how many posts are by me. :P
