In the video they say "This is for our friends in Coldplay" or something to that extent. My friends and I are going to start a ATDI cover band I think. I'm going to be the one dancing like a fool and shouting.

I probably won't buy a wig. It won't be a cover band so much as a rip-off band that does like 25% covers.

They were one of my favorite bands my senior year. I later saw them with the Murder City Devils and Les Savy Fav....one of my favorite shows ever.

I fucking hate Mars Volta. I think it's one of the worst bands currently operating.
However, 'Relationship of Command' was a superb LP. I play that a lot.

My teacher toured with ATDI a while back, and ran into cedric last year. He claimed he didn't like the stuff he's doing in the Mars Volta. My teacher said that they're some of the biggest nerds ever and cedric and omar continuously argued about whether Gandalf or Sarumon were stronger in Lord of the Rings haha.
Anyway, I used to really be into At the Drive in and The Mars Volta, but not so much anymore; however, I do really like Sparta |

I agree with slavo 100%.
Relationship of command was their only good album - with the exception of various songs on different albums. The Mars Volta suck. |

Really good, energetic rock. Relationship of Command and the Vaya EP are good shit.
I really liked The Mars Volta's first EP, Tremulant. "Eunuch Provocateur" is fucking brilliant. However, I think their two LPs are too inconsistent. Sparta is just...boring.

mars volta is nothing but 65 minutes of drugged out psychedelic tweedling stretched out on a 70 minute disc...plus one or two songs to sum it up.
I'll rather play King Crimson than this shit.

Personally I don't ffind the Mars Volta offensively tweedly at all, I'll follow them throgh a lot mainly because it doesn't strike me as useless self indulgence. I like the bombast, it's somewhat invigorating. I like the endless noodling because it continues to sound good after 10 mins or more.
For a major label band they ain't doing bad. |
