What can I say?

By BrianZ81 11/6/2009 06:58:40
As someone who has had a stringed instrument in my hand since age 4, spent many years being trained as a classical musician, done regional tours in rock bands and listened to about every type of music there is, I will say this about The Mars Volta: They rock! Cedric is a bit over-the-top in his live performances and that can distract you from the complexity of the music, but I would still encourage anyone to see them live. Not many bands can pull off their level of musicianship on a recording, let alone exceed it in person.  Their style(s) is/are not for a casual listener. However, if you are a real music lover or a musician yourself, you're sure to enjoy this band. You may not like them at first, but they will surely grow on you:)
Enjoy!

Audio Perfection

By iptweak 9/15/2009 16:16:41
I have been listening to the The Mars Volta since the ATDI split and have never looked back.  Seen them on every tour and they keep getting better saw them at the Congress Theater in Chicago actually four days ago and it was the best yet.  TMV will always be there for the music and fans, oh yeah and Omar is the next guitar legend...

THE great wonder of the world

By xkillbot2000x 9/4/2009 15:48:02
I could never put into words the amount of pleasure that I get from watching these guys live.  I've caught 4 of their Chicago shows in the last 6 years, and each one is better than the one before it.  Omar and Cedric are true masters of their art and their genius is awe inspiring.

I can't say enough...

By TMVfoSHO 2/11/2009 20:06:33
...about this band, they are the best!! I can honestly say that their music has changed my life, it's beyond inspiring. I bought De-loused back in 03 because I liked ATDI and I figured it'd be more of the same, or similar sounding...not!! Needless to say, I was pleasently surprized!! Their music is outerworldly and I am grateful for bands like TMV who continue to make thought provoking, uncompromising, booty shaking music!!

Message From Mars

By WpanicS 1/5/2009 18:44:17
I feel that the music is all around us and that  its there with or without us. we're merely satalites picking up on the signal; and what The Mars Volta is tapping into is very scary and intriguing.

Mesmerizing

By thecatspajamas3 1/4/2009 01:05:08
I listen to this band everyday and I can never get enough.  Most people don't understand how much talent this band has or even their music period.  Most people that don't like TMV aren't musicians or artists and they just don't get it.  The guys changed my life the first time I heard them and inspire me everyday.  Omar Rodriguez-Lopez is a musical genious.  Check out his solo work if you haven't.  Dissect this band it's worth it.
