The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium

Professor Peedston · 04-07-2003, 07:09 AM

daaaaaaaamn this album was certainly worth the wait. blows any At the Drive-In albums right out of the water.

i'm not so good at starting threads in this section.

weedy_gonzalez · 04-07-2003, 06:50 PM

DrPolitik · 04-07-2003, 10:59 PM

i saw a concert of theirs on tv and it looked and sounded amazing, i definitely want to see 'em and will be buying the album..i was a big ATDI fan but MV are takin' it to a new level

Professor Peedston · 05-07-2003, 03:39 AM

yeah i'm going to see them next week, i'm really looking forward to it. i can't even imagine them being more intense than ATDI, but from the sound of their record (and the three song ep from last year) they seem to be. :shock:

Jewelee · 05-07-2003, 05:43 AM

DrPolitik · 05-07-2003, 12:42 PM

i`d call it experimental rock

DrPolitik · 05-07-2003, 03:22 PM

yeah, WAY experimental! It's like Post everything! It's like Post rock jazzfusioncore bluesfunkpunk...i'm making up genres here, you get the idea, they rock basically!

Professor Peedston · 05-07-2003, 05:49 PM

i read on their website that the album is a concept album about a guy who tries to kill himself by overdosing on morphine, but he goes into a coma and has weird dreams and his conscience starts battling itself, then he finally comes out of the coma and successfully kills himself. :shock:

written about an old friend of cedric's, apparently.

DrPolitik · 05-07-2003, 06:09 PM

so is that like post comatic suicidal irony rock? Bring it on :shock:

Professor Peedston · 05-07-2003, 06:11 PM

add the word "prog" in there somewhere and you're set to go.

DrPolitik · 05-07-2003, 06:14 PM

aah..we should be getting paid for these genre names...journalists are usually way too slow in picking these things up, but then very few of them know the first thing about music

DrPolitik · 18-07-2003, 03:22 PM

*YOINK*

Ok as of yesterday I now own this album and am somewhere out to sea because i've been blown away....this album is INTENSE!! Multiple listens beckon...it's way beyond ATDI, makes them sound like a boy band! I'm gonna get that lyrics/story booklet when it becomes availabe..this is a future cult classic, philosophy/psychology classes should examine it :shock:

Dandy Andy · 19-07-2003, 06:52 AM

what's cedric name?
i keep seeing cedric bixler and then theres cedric zavalas but its the same guy
should it be hyphenated like rodriguez-lopez or something?

OOOOH and i have to brag
I SCORED A SPARTA ALBUM FOR SIX BUCKS! WOOT

DrPolitik · 19-07-2003, 10:50 AM

It's Omar A Rodriguez - Lopez & Cedric Bixler Zavala....

I think "Flea" has the right idea
