cedric's lyrics are hilarious albeit evocative word salad but i just can't even figure how he takes himself seriously, i mean honestly

[Trotskilicious]

when i found out the most recent mars volta album was called "Noctourniquet" i was just like "Christ dude you're parodying yourself."

[Venom]

Frances The Mute is one of my favorite albums. John Frusciante playing the first two guitar solos on L'Via L'Viaquez is nothing short of awesome.

SLN, your Frances reconstruction is awesome. It sucks there's no vinyl rips of The Widow single and it sucks even more that they cost around $70 on eBay. =\

Hey thanks!

I actually found two separate vinyl rips of The Widow single, both were of not-so-great quality (when compared to the rip of the album I had). :/ Oh well, maybe someday it will get done and I'll revise my reconstruction.

Oh man, please do!

It's a shame they decided to breakup. With Omar focusing on that Bosnian Rainbows crap... UGH. But at least there's the six albums and some b-sides. I am interested in hearing Cedric's solo stuff that he mentioned in his breakup Twitter posts though.

I really love Noctourniquet and Bedlam, but could tell the band was dying quickly. So not really unexpected.

[Venom]

Yeah, I really love Frances The Mute, Amputechture, Octahedron and Noctourniquet the most.

[redbull]

amputechture is probably the single most dissapointing album i've ever heard

[Slygmous]

The band was pretty much dead when Jon Theodore left anyway.
Omar turning down the drums on Amputechture was so bizarrely spiteful.

are you not familiar with how spiteful omar and cedric are of the other members of ATDI

[TuralyonW3]

HA

acrobatic tenement and relationship of command to be reissued:

[Trotskilicious]

the problem with O & C is that they think they're cool, much cooler than you or these other knuckledragging plebes in their bands. lots of interviews point to this attitude, and their relentless assertions that they are taking rock music to strange new places when they just kind of spin the wheels on endless post-hardcore masturbation for the most part.

post hardcore masturbation is a great band name.

[wHATcOLOR]

let's make this the longest thread to forever

[Sonic Johnny]

yeah that's cool guys don't bother with In/Casino/Out or anything, jeez.

Have you seen Omar's youtube channel? He will reply to you and maybe answer questions, but he's been known to be a real assmonger to people.

[Tchocky]

The Mars Volta “Octahedron” (2009)
Omar Rodriguez Lopez “A Manual Dexterity: Soundtrack Volume One” (2004)
“Omar Rodriguez” (2005)
“Se Dice Bisonte, No Bùfalo” (2007)
“The Apocalypse Inside of an Orange” (2007)
“Calibration (Is Pushing Luck and Key Too Far)” (2007)
“Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fungus” (2008)
“Minor Cuts and Scrapes in the Bushes Ahead” (2008)
“Old Money” (2008)
“Megaritual” (2009)
“Despair” (2009)
“Cryptomnesia” (2009)
“Los Sueños de un Higado” (2009)
“Xenophanes” (2009)
“Solar Gambling” (2009)

This is what it sounds like when not a single person has said to a musician “Dude, this is a really bad idea” for about 5 years. Since apparently Omar and the yes men that make up his circle of musician friends seem to never stop recording every single retarded idea they have, this shit comes off like one long, self-indulgent stroke session that doesn’t have an end.

Omar, muchacho, seriously, it’s break time. Now HIT THE SHOWERS.
