I really really hate The Mars Volta. For years, people have been telling me to listen to them since I'm really big into Floyd, Rush, etc. and that I should love 'em. I kinda put it in the back of my head until this past summer. My best friend, who is a huge MV fan, told me to download De-Loused. I figured, "Oh, what the fuck? Might as well." My GOD, it was the most pointless, convoluted, wanky shit ever! (well, other than Dream Theater or that Dragonforce band, I guess.) I made the mistake of downloading the rest of their albums to see if I could find anything likable about them, only to find them even more progressively wanky. It didn't help that the vocalist is absofuckinglutely grating either.
I remember when ATDI had One-Armed Scissor on the radio. It was pretty good from what I can remember. Not sure if I'd want to spend time on one of their albums, though.
