Anyone pick up the new mars volta? Sounds good so far.
The artwork sort of looks like a freshman design project though. I like the colors, anyway.

like a few of their songs.
i think there was a thread about this yesterday

Yeah there was a thread, I forget what it was called though.
The title is Scab Dates. Only problem is it's hard to capture their live show on disc.

hmm... i'll have to check that out. didn't know they had a new one coming out.
i saw them live and 3/4 of the show was their boring improv stuff that is just a bad attempt at being on CAN's nuts.

the thread is called 'the mars volta', haha

I must have skipped kindergarten the day we learned how to read.

I thought their improv was good. Most bands can't play a 25 minute song and keep my interest, but I wasn't bored by it at all. It's all subjective though.

Is that the live CD/DVD? Any good?
Frances the Mute is a great album.

omar rodrigez (sp?) from the mars volta recently released a solo album as well. anyone heard that one?
- skelly0
I think I heard parts of it. good stuff from what I remember.

a manual dexterity is far better than any mars volta album. mars volta are great, but they are getting slightly worse with each release. tremulant EP and the original demo version of roulette dares is their best stuff.

I can't agree that they're getting worse, but I do agree with you about the Tremulant EP. There's definitely something there that was lost with the newer recordings. I still play the early demos as much as their albums.

definately. i was slightly disappointed with de-loused when it came out.
