is there any mars volta fans in here? how about at the drive in or sparta?

[Matthew]

What ??

I drive a suburban.

I love all three--The Mars Volta is probably the best CD I've bought this year. I like Sparta, too, although that disc is a little more, I don't know, ordinary or straight-forward or whatever. The Mars Volta just works better for me. I think it's pretty cool that a band I liked a lot, At the Drive In, could break up and then become TWO pretty damn good bands.

What kind of music is Mars Volta? Sounds like something worth checking out.

[in_diana_jones]

definetly check out these songs by the mars volta (or just buy their album deloused in the comatorium)

(fav songs in no particular order and not necessarily on their new album)

1. take the veil
2. concertina
3. this aparatus must be unearth
4. cicatriz esp

there are a few songs to get you started...hey ryall, have you seen any concert videos from at the drive in or the mars volta?

[in_diana_jones]

its basically just arty prog-rock (at least thats what rolling stones described it as). in case anyone cares.

I put "Son Et Lumiere" and "Televators" on my August mix tape. And I beat myself in the head a few times for orginally dismissing them as Rush knock-offs.

ya...i like both of those, but feel that those are more their mediocre songs. take the veil is amazing...it makes me get these spine tingling sensations every time i listen to it. then i usually hump random objects...but we won't get into that.

[/ QUOTE ] Wow, you actually listened to me?

I really dig "Deloused". I just listened to ATDI for the first time yesterday. Meh. I just didn't find it very interesting. But, I can't listen to Mars Volta enough.
