The Mars Volta is an acquired taste, that album is one of the greatest albums of all time.
For sure an acquired taste.
Now I'm confused how I immediately got hooked at like 12 years old by this album. I listened to it so much over the years that I've kinda become desensitized to its complexities. Cool to see how people listening to it for the first time react
@@Lizard1582 i immediately liked it too. i was probably like 15 though and i was really just getting into playing guitar and smoking weed so that probably helps a lot. haha
Indeed,definately one of my favourite if not my favourite album ever.
@Moose X Nah I actually had no friends at the time that I could talk music with. Before I had constant access to the internet, I would flip through all the Music Choice radio channels on my tv. I disliked almost everything but every now and then some really good shit and it was was worth waiting an hour for it. Deftones, Tool, and Slipknot were probably the most important things I found that were significant to my high school music taste. The one Mars Volta song I heard from there was The Widow which I really liked and at least made me aware of the band. Now a couple years later in the Pandora days, I made a Mars Volta radio and over time I would see that my favorite songs came from Deloused. Pandora really put me into album listening after realizing that many of the songs I liked came from the same album or artist.
"I like it, but I don't know if I like it."
That's how it feels when your mind is being opened to something new.
YES exactly what I was thinking. They need to go down the prog rabbit hole. They need to become more desensitized to the elements that shock them so they can focus on where the music is really trying to take them. I really wish they'd listen to something by Anekdoten (mostly their latest album)
Absolutely Spot On!
Had the same exact thought. Since then, they became my favorite band, been listening to them almost non-stop for about two years! I had the same reaction to the band Unexpect, which I would highly recommend. Different but very powerful and strange too!
That's what I felt when I listened to Tool.
@@maxmaidment96 just checked out the first song on the 2015 album and I'm sold, thanks for spreading the word
Hats off to these dudes for their broad tastes and willingness to listen.
Willingness to listen? That's what a reaction is. 🤣
@@SpookyMulder2022 they could react to anything else but them.
@@SpookyMulder2022 There's huge reactors that only react to hiphop and kpop so... Yeah, willingness.
they're like tool: they crawl into your mind and nest and grow and become something that soundtracks a certain corner of your personality...
For me they're more of a natural progression. My favorite band is and has always been Rush. The first time I heard Mars Volta in high school (almost 20 years ago) I knew immediately that I loved them.
That is a great way to describe them and tool. Good choice of words. I heard both bands in my teens and thought they were just okay. Now in my 30s that seed has grown into adoration.
i cannot agree more
Well put
That is an amazing and accurate comment. I have been listening to both Tool and The Mars Volta since I was about 14 or 15 and that is how I feel about them.
"I'm so confused" is an appropriate response to The Mars Volta.
I remember the first time I heard mars volta and I felt confused also, like not sure if I liked it. But after hearing the album a couple of times I fell in love with it. It is just very different.
if this is confusing i'd love to see them sit through a mr bungle track
@@fosferus Platypus
@@fosferus watch them sit through anything off of disco volante.
i dident feel confused, i was more like overjoyed by the sound, specially the drums:)
Btw guys, this isn’t the full album version. It’s cut down.
It's like the radio version if the radio was dope.
to be fair, the album version is two songs so they wouldn't have gotten that sweet intro if they did it on Spotify...
@@tetrahedrontri Oh I thought the whole album was just one long song. This is news to me.
@@jameswyatt6076 That's their second album Frances The Mute, although even that was divided into separate tracks to satisfy their label. Every Volta album has songs that flow seamlessly into one another though so you can basically treat all of them as giant full album songs if you want.
@@TheSquareOnes I really do appreciate you spreading good praise of Mars Volta in teaching others, but I was being facetious. I know all their albums are just one long song 😂 except for like the last two which I guess they're going to do that again? Hopefully soon.
This album is an active listening experience. Not something to just put on. You really gotta sit down with a good pair of headphones and listen to the whole thing intently.
DAVECATAZ 💯
Absolutely Sacred ground.
Jon Theodore on the drums. He’s on their debut ep, this album, their second and third albums, and I believe two live releases too. He plays with Queens of the Stone Age now. One of my all time favorite drummers.
It’s actually Blake Fleming on the tremulant ep
Christian Limon Jon Theodore played on the ep. Blake Fleming played on the demos. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tremulant_(EP)
V. Paul Janbazian omg you literally just out nerded me haha TMV are my favorite band and I always thought Blake played on the EP, I feel like such a bad fan now haha thanks for the correction!
Christian Limon no worries! A lot people forget about that ep altogether (like their live recordings). It’s nuts that it came out in 2002.
Theodore is one of the greatest of all time imo.
So excited to see the Mars Volta on the channel! They're so underrated! Next song should be roulette dares (the haunt of) or L'via L'Viaquez
roulette dares is my jam. all the tempo changes, and those guitar riffs are insane. first time i listened to them i was stoned and drunk. it was amazing lol.
Massthetics 101 Yes yes yes!!!
Yea they're criminally underrated even in the prog community. There's hardly any TMV reaction videos on RUclips so I got so hyped when this popped into my sub box.
This whole album is just a classic! I also love cicatriz esp and eriatarka. Can listen to this album non stop
Can’t wait for Ryan And George do react to Roulette Dares.
Jon Theodore is the drummer. He is insane. Look into him.
Jon Theodore was great, but Thomas Pridgen was on a whole other level.
@@M4570DON I think they both have their strengths. Jon is much tighter and rigid but still fluid while Thomas is more loose and wild while still being a virtuosity but Thomas had less discipline to perform the old songs with the same rigidity and accuracy to the spirit of those existing drum parts. Both are amazing though.
@@M4570DON I'm sorry, but BS. Pridgen can play fast, and can cram in the maximum number of drum hits, but he never had the groove of Theodore. And Cedric has even admitted that openly, that Theodore was the best drummer they ever had and firing him was the biggest mistake they ever made.
@@bigchiefbc To be fair, part of the reason that Pridgen didn't jell as much as Theodore was the fact that he had an argumentative personality more so than the way he played.
Jon is the current drummer of Queens of the Stone Age as well.
Jon Theodore (currently with Queens of the Stone Age) he is a bad bad man
Deantoni parks was their best drummer
Nayr Tnartsipac Deantoni is a really great drummer. Very creative. Noctourniquet is my second favorite Mars album. Aegis has some crazy patterns.
Jon Theodore the best drummer TMV had
@@aperezto Before this one escalates (again), let me reiterate my recent comment on the video: there is no THE best TMV-drummer. There is only the best for the time. You really think they hadn't stuck with what they thought was THE best drummer if that were the case? The very concept of Mars Volta was to always bring in new creative influences that fit what they (mostly Omar and Cedric) had in mind. So, naturally, there was some conflict as well and people left. I always think it's a little short-sighted to "evaluate" musicians purely based on individual taste. They are all highly skilled, talented and musical drummers.
Thomas Pridgen
The Mars Volta is the band that made me fall in love with music all over again
Couldn't agree more. I was so burned out on almost all other music at the time, and The Mars Volta really opened my eyes to what music and art can be. After my first live experience with them, it completely sealed them as being my favorite band of all time.
💯
The Mars Volta completely redefined what "music" could even be for me
Clicked instantly. Do more Mars Volta. One of the greatest groups of the 2000s.
Oh snap. You guys don’t even realize that you are standing with your toes over a rabbit-hole with this band. Their history (and direct peers'), personal journeys and backstories, where they went from here...man. It's crazy to think about what Omar and Cedric came from and where they are now as artists and musicians. ...and EVERY project they've been on has been unique and powerful. ATDI, TMV, Antemasque, Bosnian Rainbows. They are the real deal, and the duo's tendrils are long and felt widely through a number of bands beyond those I've named.
Careful, this track (the full version especially) will make you itch, but be certain before you scratch because its a journey. There is nothing like The Mars Volta.
ATDI relationship of command is one of my favorite albums of all time from all generes. so so good.
So true
That is what Mars Volta is... The Journey that never Ends!!!
Well said.
This is an excellent, well-said, highly knowledgeable statement on this band. Trevyn…you get it. These gentlemen are in for an incredible journey.
This album is a masterpiece every song is incredible, it only gets better and more infectious upon repeat listens. TPAB territory.
yeah loved it from the first time i heard it,has been one of my favourite bands ever after listening to it
Yeah it's a haunting album stuck with me for life
Way better than TPAB (nothing against TPAB btw)
@@joeyuzwa891 imo the records are apples and oranges, but they both get better with each listen, that was my overall point.
Especially once you dive into the themes of each song. It's basically an alice in wonderland tripy ass story that's pretty damn deep. I came to love the album in a very enigmatic fashion once I started to dive into the lyrics
The "jazzy" part of this song actually have a latin american rythm hint to it.
Thats cause the music is written by latin americans
@@nayrtnartsipacify Probably. lol
Omar has Puerto Rican roots, Cedric has Mexican roots.
John Lewis Omar is Puerto Rican however he’s more Mexican than anything. He lived in Mexico for a bit and grew up in El Paso.
Salsa
this is one of those projects you have to listen to start to finish uninterrupted... possibly one of my top 5 projects ever. just flawless. (you have to watch the drummer live)
Also Noctourniquet too I think. That album hits so hard.
what are your other top 4?
The Mars Volta - Drunkship of Lanterns will absolutely melt your minds.
This.
Yeah, this is a good choice
Let's stop messing around and do the whole story(album)....
i dunno if drunkship is the right song if they're gonna do another one. great song, but they might argue that it's too progressive. i'd pick something like wax simulacra because it's a grammy winning song so they might appreciate the accessibility more.
@@Th3sup3rn0v4 I feel you on that, but I do think Drunkship is the best if they want to take a leap of faith into the deepest waters of The Mars Volta's sound.
16:44 funnily enough, Cedric (the singer) actually sings his parts and lyrics mostly improvised because he believes that the best result is his natural reaction to the music which is just insane if you think about it from a musicians standpoint
Willow Sparks it’s brave as hell. That’s for sure.
Yeah super cool, he uses a type of homophonic translation or - more specifically - homophonic transformation. Really interesting.
One of th most talented bands of the last 20 years by a mile!!!
@@baconoftheark I wasn't forgetting, I wasn't thinking about those at all.
Baconofthe Ark lmao you can’t compare totally different sounds.
There is so much to them. Dig deeper, it only gets better.
U guys should react to the $UICIDEBOY$!!!!!!!!!
How are there 3 month old comments when it says this video was published on 1.3.20??
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 Yeah it's a patreon video. Check the description
@@roccygnus2570 oooohhh. Thx
Yea the more you get into them, the better it gets. TMV is at their best in their less accessible stuff.
Deloused in the Comatorium and Frances the Mute are two of my favorite albums
Im from Texas and was in high school when Mars Volta hit. Before that they were at the drive in , also incredible music. As a latino this was our jimi hendrix sort of hero phase. They sang songs in spanish and EVERYBODY knew the words. White/black/ everyone. It was so crazy to hear our culture in the music and have very latin influenced music make it so far and be one of the most influential prog rock bands ever, like it or not. These guys are a really big deal on a lot of levels. They made their mark.
I was a young 20 something in LA when this album came out. It hit me like... like it was the Led Zep or Jimi(as you said) of our time, but with a heavy latin influence yet not Santana. I literally listened to this album on repeat for about 6 months. None of the new metal was of my taste, no shade to them. But this music was the next logical step for me. As part of an era of immigrants that were taught to integrate, this music represented the unique Latino contribution to American Culture.
Omar Rodriguez Lopez 🤘🇵🇷🤘
My favorite band ever. This band broke me out of my high school nu metal phase. More of them.
same here!!
We're probably the same generation then. Class of '04?
@@frankamourleon6076 not quite. ‘09.
My reaction to this in my feed: "oooh."
I was like "Oh shit *CLICK*
Samesies
The whole album needs to be listened to in it's entirety...it's almost one massive song
“The Widow” is one of their more straight forward songs, but still fantastic. You guys would like it a lot.
Baron Ghede that song still gets me. It’s probably their most played song because of its standard musicality and melody but damn is it good.
^this
Yeah they'd be into that
The Widow is what got me into Volta, and it is still a brilliant song
that one is good but why is half the song just noises, wouldve been so much better if that part only lasted like 20 seconds
The Mars Volta, to me, always sounded like Yes and Santana got together, did a bunch of speed and Red Bull, then hit the record button.
That's not a bad thing.
GooseZen i feel like yes and santana already did speed. At least a coke
Mix in King Crimson, Can and Pink Floyd with that as well. And ofcourse At The Drive-in
THIS. Fragile album was such an influence
Lol Santana ?
100%. I totally hear Steve Howe in the way that Omar constructs his solos.
Wow, I can't believe you guys did a Mars Volta reaction! These guys were absolute monsters, and created some incredible music, with this album being one of my favorites of all time. They had several drummers while together, each incredible in his own right. Some of the best drumming you'll hear in any genre. Omar's chord choices were always unique and a joy to listen to, the base is always groovy, and Cedric's studio recorded voice was always magnificent. Give the entire album a listen sometime. It will take you on a journey.
*studio recorded voice*
Yup! Live it was shit, lol
Everytime I listen to The Mars Volta, they are the best band in the world! I think they have the most perfect discography that I've ever seen! This band grow on us as the time passes. You definitely need to listen to them again! Thanks for the honest reaction!
Can’t believe they went down this path.
Just listen to the whole album. It was put together brilliantly.
Amazing right? I can't believe I wasn't aware of this album til last year
Massthetics 101 I just found them last month!
I feel you guys. The first time I heard this I wasn’t entirely sure if I liked it. Cedric’s voice threw me off, Omar’s guitar was a little all over the place... but the CONCEPT and the ENERGY along with the INTENSE DRUMMING is what kept pulling me back to this record, AND their next record, Frances the Mute.
As a Hispanic, I fully appreciate how this band successfully managed to bring Latin influences into a Psychedelic Prog Rock band. I’m certain you guys will continue to explore the depth of THE MARS VOLTA.
Rest In Peace, IKEY OWENS, The original Keyboard Player.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
RickPaniagua - You said everything I wanted to say.
RickPaniagua RIP Ikey!
Rest in Paradise Ikey !
The transitions in L’Via would make their heads explode haha.
John Briggs one of my favorite songs. The tempo change is magical!
Love that song!
No doubt!
Ever wonder why in L’Via they sing the initial rock part in Spanish then the slower rumba latin jazz in English? Always baffled me
Yes it will
The first part is the song Son et Lumiere then when it kicks in with the drums that’s Inertiatic Esp. Two songs on the album but they are really more like one song.
and the album frances the mute is just one song
@@jaiggm i never noticed that. holy shit.
Jon Theodore, easily one of the greatest living drummers. He doesn't quite play stuff like this anymore. Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, the guitarist, was incredibly intense at this time and pushed Theodore to the limits of his abilities. It wasn't a healthy relationship, but it's hard to listen to this and not hear the greatness brought out of him. He's currently part of Queens of the Stone Age, another one of my favorite bands of all time.
Next listen, try paying extra attention to the keys. Ikey Owens was a beast. RIP.
It's also not wild to say Cedric's voice is pop-ish. He cites tons of vocal influences, including Bjork.
Also a fun fact that Flea played bass on this album too. Seems like that gets overlooked quite a bit. But his playing is so much more phenomenal on this album than any Red Hot Chilli Peppers record.
I missed seeing them back in early 2000, that’s a huge regret because he played like a monster. All I can do is try to find RUclips videos of this tour.
@@mattmarkus4868 I got to see them twice once opening for A Perfect Circle they played for an hour 3 songs and Jon was absolutely amazing! Cicatriz was 45 minutes of the hour. This and Drunkenship were the other 2.
I like yall doing The Mars Volta I've always had respect for them....legit have a 33minute song that doesn't loop or repeat shit it just progresses for 33 straight minutes 😭
Cassandra gemini?
And it’s a good song, which is the craziest part.
Monster Magnet's first album had a really long song called TAB... lol sounded like an acid trip under water
@@dclarkmusic Exactly! It's so great! I was thinking of suggesting it! XD
Cassandra Gemini!
The more you listen to the Mars Volta the more they will grow on you.
They're for sure an acquired taste but oh how sweet it is once acquired.
For sure
This
Point blank:
You guys should have strarted with "Cicatriz ESP"
With the feedback part that just meanders for about a minute? Yeah that'd go over well.
Favorite song on the album for sure though.
@@SkeetSystem I did find a cut on RUclips randomly that pretty seemlessly removed about 3/4 of that section, and would fit perfectly with what these guys like to listen to.
my favourites are drunkship of lanterns and take the veil cerpin taxt. cheers
If music makes you feel good then enjoy it... dont listen to others on how music should make you feel. I'm glad you guys were receptive to it. Stop labeling though. Latin music is one of thier main influences yet wasn't mentioned. Let them blend and make art. thank God band like the MV and At the Drive In exist. They are exploring aspects of the Grateful Dead mentality of pushing what a song can be.... keep listening and find your beat
cicatriz wouldve been the appropriate review, agreed. maybe they'll get back to it
They should react to “take the veil” it would blow their minds
"Take the veil, Cerpin Taxt" - Yes, absolutely!
I’m loving his voice!! I’m gonna have to give these guys a listen.
Lisa Johnson I recommend Televators, Since We’ve Been Wrong, and Goliath as starting points.
Thanks Philip!!!!
don't go song by song - listen to Deloused in the Comatorium from front to back, and if you like that... try Frances the Mute. Then rinse/repeat until you're in love :) Both of these albums are god damn masterpieces.
Will do! I have heard of this band for years but have never listened to them. But his voice really grabbed my attention so now I’m curious lol.
I've always said his voice reminds me of Robert Plant from Led Zeppelin
Gotta take in the album in it's entirety. It's a work of art.
agreed
It is. Also, I was disappointed they played the "radio" version here. It misses out on some nice touches in the intro.
That Eriatarka>Cicatriz ESP>This Apparatus Must Be Unearthed block of songs is the best music EVER to my ears
The Mars Volta is so underrated, thank you guys for taking the time to appreciate it with us! I’d love to see you guys do another one!
Fun fact:
This album features Flea and John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
hahahaha!!!
@@joddeurter2448 I'm confused on why that's funny. It's a fact. Flea actually plays all of the bass parts in this album.
@@BedlemTheGoliath He also plays trumpet on later albums.
I always wondered if that was John Frusciante🥺🥺🥺💜💜💜 i love it
You're lucky, getting to hear this for the first time. Hearing this the first time was one of the biggest musical orgasms of my life.
Gearoid Walsh
They were real givers! 😂😂 I hear ya.
@@jacksonizzy1 I lived inside this album for about a year
Yeah, remembered listening to this the first time when it came out and immediately thought there was nothing that was going to be better that year
Gearoid Walsh
I’ve never really moved out!
Jon Theodore is the drummer. He's a beast and current drummer for Queens of the Stone Age.
Ikey on the keys he was a beast also. Great band on this album
He's good in The Mars Volta but let's be honest, his drumming in Queens of the Stone Age is awful (and by awful I mean completely tasteless and uncreative)
@@lizardskin8594 to be fair, on villains he didn't even play/write any of the drum parts (except like one track) Plus, it's a totally different band so maybe he's just not being used to his true potential.. yet.
Oh dude, I hadn't heard he got the QotSA gig. So happy for him.
@@lizardskin8594 I doubt he has as much creative freedom in QOTSA, I mean it is Josh Homme's band...
The vocals might sound more "pop" because the album was produced by Rick Rubin. By the band's own admission, his vision as a producer is that the vocals are the focal point of every song.
I found Ryan's point about the verses having breakdown/pre-chorus feels really intuitive. And Jon Theodore is the drummer. He also drummed for Queens of the Stone Age.
I still don't understand why "hardcore" fans say De-Loused is their best. I guess it comes down to opinion, but I think Francis the Mute is their best, and one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time. When you guys get back to this band, check out "Cygnus....Vismund Cygnus" - then you'll understand TMV.
Cugnus is their best song imo but as whole albums go it goes deloused for me, Frances very very close 2nd and Goliath 3rd
Nothing to do with pop! To say his voice is pop is an insult.
Band lineup on this recording:
Cedric Bixler-Zavala - Lead Vocals
Omar Rodriguez-Lopez - Guitars
Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers) - Bass
Jon Theodore - Drums/Percussion
Isiah “Ikey” Owens (RIP 2014) - Keyboards
Jeremy Michael Ward (RIP 2003) - Soundscapes
also John Frusciante play in couple songs, Omar invited him too

God damn I love that song

Yes!! Please
OMG!!!!! I have been begging for some TMV a long time ago! Many thanks for doing and and thanks for any1 who requested this :D
The story of Cerpin Taxt, taken from the tragic story of their friend's battle with drug addiction and suicide.
This album blew my mind when I bought it on a whim in '05, and Volta really became a transformative band for me. I was into Tool and grunge and classic rock, but the popular rock at the time was numetal and it all was so formulaic...Volta showed me there are always artists are out there doing completely original things, you just need to look for them yourself because the rock radio stations and big labels just stick to what they know. Now I'm the guy who listens to tons of bands my friends and coworkers have never heard of.
The Mars volta was once in a lifetime.
VideInfra glad I was there
TAKE THE VEIL CERPIN TAXT - MARS VOLTA it would be crazy
That's the one though
He writes his vocals by humming to the songs first, and then adding lyrics later. It makes things very emotional and free.
That combination of liking what you hear but being confused is how every fan first reacts to TMV. Even a prog vet like myself found them hard to grasp at first, but I do think De-loused and Francis the Mute are masterpieces. Not sure if I would've recommended this as a first listen but I guess it worked out. I'd recommend L'Via L'Viaquez next.
"You like it, but you don't know if you like it". I approve of this message :)
Mars Volta is like a fine wine.
Fan humbling requesting Mars Volta - Ouroboros
Televators is my all time favorite song. The levels of sound work in that song is amazing
Iykyk
As I recall, this was like Rush and Led Zeppelin's tour buses crashing in front of King Crimson's house.
I made the mental image of this, i laughed
😂💯🔥
That is a great analysis!!😁
I saw them live when they toured this album. It was a full-blown sonic attack - I felt my body was "tenderized" by the blitz.
One of my favorite albums ever. Roulette Dares was the first song I ever listened to by The Mars Volta
Had to repost this on here as well...
It’s amazing how your Chanel has grown. Been off RUclips for a year and it’s so nice to see you guys going for a million subs. Keep working hard Ryan and George, I m truly inspired.
Love the free thinkers show 🙌🙌
THE MARS VOLTA IT'S THE MOST CREATIVE BAND OF ALL TIME
I was so scared that you guys were going to hate whatever was going to be your first The Mars Volta song. This is ultimstely a best case scenario for me in the way you responded because it kept you curious and didn't simply repel you. I'm glad they've kept your interest. Just be aware that they go off the deep end in a lot ways as the catalog goes further. There are some jams you will probably really love and some that make you feel even more weird than you just did for this.
True
Agree. This was as perfect reaction as I could have hoped for from these guys. Kudos.
Yeah, I hated some TMV songs that are now among my favorite music of all time when I first heard them. These guys are challenging, so enjoying them this much, or at all, on a first listen is impressive.
So glad you guys did The Mars Volta especially this album. A coworker's son introduced me to this album back in 2003 and I was blown away at the musical talent. I love this album and total shout out to you two for doing this reaction to what I think is quite a unique album and song. You guys are the best. Keep doing what you do. I love it.
It's been a while since I've listened to The Mars Volta. I should get back into them.
And then that's all I listen to for a year
You really should
Been a fan of this channel since pretty much the beginning. I have to say, I'm really proud of how you've both grown as listeners. The fact that the poppier elements of this song weren't even your favorite parts... your appreciation for this was deep and well-informed. Free thinking at its finest.
And guys Dont Forget, Flea and Frusciante played on this album heavily....
For some reason I thought that was Frances the Mute
@@rabblerouser6744 well your right too. haha Frances the Mute is great. Frusciante plays most of the guitars and Flea some trumpets. But on Deloused Flea plays Bass and Frusciante plays as well on some tracks. example is the dual guitars on Cicatriz Esp...Cheers!
Don't forget Frusciante played almost all the guitars in Amputechture
@@movimentodoscacos yeah like quite literally all the guitars. He tracked most the guitars so omar could focus on production
I somehow have a feeling they weren’t ready for this
nobody is
@@Tabadi I definitely wasn't, but thats why I grinned through the whole album
I don't think anyone is
Take Veil Cerpin Taxt is my favorite song by Mars Volta. Flea and John Frusciante really made that whole song pop.
Holy shit, it's The Mars Volta. It's such a trip to see this group pop up in a reaction channel. Please do more!
LMAO, I was getting ready for y'all to rip the singer's high pitched voice. Pleasantly surprised.
Jon Theodore is the drummer for their first few albums and they actually fired him because they felt he wasn’t enjoying himself. They had since said that it was their biggest regret to let him go.
The band is basically lead by Omar (guitar) and Cedric (vocals). Omar said that they will make music again sometime in the future as The Mars Volta
Also they are one of my favorite bands of all time and you guys would really dig this album “deloused” in its entirety. Its one of the only albums i can listen to all the way through often
I was listening to Volta way back in the day and to this day the mood hits me regularly to revisit this record. Every time I listen to it I take away something new and that is what good art does, right?
Cedric has confirmed that they are currently working on stuff.
Wow, watching this on my Xbox right now, and I have to say... thank you! The Mars Volta is my all time favourite band. It doesn’t even take a second thought. Mad respect for reviewing this. This is just the beginning. THANK YOU!
One of the dopest albums of all time and massively underrated. I mean shit, FLEA played bass on this record. I would have gone with a different track from this particular album. But kudos for listening to them. Take my word for it. If you stick with them you won't be disappointed.
Yes, finally some Volta. One of my favorite bands.
man Cygnus...Vismund Cygnus would've been the best first pick.
strong agree
i'm a roulette dares fan myself. a lot of tempo changes and interesting riffs
Hopefully they do that next. I think this track is a good introduction, though. Cygnus might have been a little too Prog.
I like to hit em with L'Via L'Viaquez and lure em into a false sense of security...then drop Cygnus on em.
Cicatriz ESP would also be pretty good to ease into the proggy shit, it's got that killer groove that's repetitious enough it won't just bowl somebody over.
God I love Mars Volta, I hope more people start listening to them
I'd be very curious to see what you guys think of their band before The Mars Volta. Check out the song One Armed Scissor by At The Drive-In. They were a super influential post-hardcore band who helped shape that genre in its early days.
This band is amazing. It grows on you for sure. So much energy in this music. This whole album is amazing and this song transitions right into Roulette Dares, which is a great second song to check out.
Deloused in the Comatorium is my favorite record, really glad to see you guys do this song and enjoy it!
"we are definitely getting back to A Perfect Circle"...It's been two years
Jon Theodore was there drummer for quite a while. He’s one of the best in the genre. He drums for queens of the Stone Age now. I recommend you checking out that band PLEASE
My favorite album. This band is either comes off as noise or they become your favorite band.
WOOOOW. Never thought you guys would do The Mars Volta! HELL YES!!
So glad you guys covered The Mars Volta. Arguably one of the most talented bands for their time. Best thing to do is listen to their albums in their entirety, road trips are perfect.
Once you are able to hear in the color that is the Mars Volta, you realize how amazing they truly are.
YYYYYEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Keep listening to them please! They are amazing musicians.
I haven't heard The Mars Volta in probably a decade... I'm happy to go back to their discography and zone out again, it's a long while.
These guys always amaze me. I remember omar saying a few years ago that he had the music written already for the next 10-12 albums.. which baffles me because almost all of their albums are filled with long epics with so many changes.
Flea.
It's a concept album, you can't just listen to just one song.
Kinda True... But... thats exactly what they will be doing. 😉
Seems like they did
Oh my god. You guys are transforming the way I did when I first fell hard for this band. I love this reaction so far.
Second reaction from The Mars Volta has to be "Drunkship of Lanterns" 💚🖤y'all will appreciate it 🤘🤘
You guys were brave to approach this one with such an open mind - props.
This is an album you have to listen to start to finish! It’s such a work of art.
Omg! Yes! This is one of the most important albums of the last twenty years!
No one is ready for The Mars Volta until you Become part of The Mars Volta!
Lost In Vegas needs to get more Mars Volta on here. That band is one of the best rock bands period
I am a simple man. I see Mars Volta - I click like
