    it's definately not musically there. it's really... detached from the musical plane. i'm about halfway through it. sounds like background music to a movie, which is unfortunate.

    so far i'm pretty fond of the last half of the album. the first half is a lot of repetitive singing and kinda boring. maybe i'll change my mind after listening some more.

    Necrobump cause RIP Mars Volta.

    ‏@cedricbixler_

    Thank u 2 all VOLTA fans u deserved more especially after the way u rooted for us on this album. I tried my hardest to keep it going

    ‏@cedricbixler_

    But Bosnian Rainbows was what we all got instead. I can't sit here and pretend any more. I no longer am a member of Mars Volta.

    ‏@cedricbixler_

    All I can do is move forward with my music and just be happy that mars volta ever happened at all. God Damn we had a blast. Thank u again


    Omar is working on Bosnian Rainbows and Cedric is doing a solo project. :[

    that's fail, saw them live in 2004 in norman OK when they opened for a perfect circle. had never heard of them before, but was very impressed with them and would have seen them again in a heartbeat.

    Goliath was the last great thing they did.. I'm biased though. I saw them live during that time and they did a crazy 30 minute set of the song goliath

    I saw them live in 06, they opened for System of a Down. They were decent.

    I also saw them in '06 opening for System, I hadn't heard of them before but it was pretty good for what I remember.

    I've seen them 4 times. The best show for me was their April 2nd 2008 show in Miami (I have their poster from that show, best $40 spent ever).

    Definitely a bitter sweet ending since they will forever be my favorite band growing up. Hours and hours and hours of listening to De-Loused..explaining Frances the Mute's story to my friends..the angst feeling from Amputechture..the kick assness with the Bedlam..then the rest kind of fell off. They were good, but De-Loused was the best

    Oh well. I do enjoy Omar's side projects. A lot of them are good time killers while working and Bosnian Rainbows is a great side project. Can't wait for more of Juan and Cedrics stuff

    I didn't even bother with Noctourniquet.. After Octahedron I was like ehhhhhhhhhhhhh...... It had a few great songs but jeez. I'm not surprised by this, but it sucks pretty bad. I am a huge Volta fan, an I hate to see a band like this break up, but it's probably necessary.
