Ahh. I've been listening to it for four days non-stop. It's just great. The album doesn't contain a single boring/bad track and the music just sounds incredible. ( Never heard anything near this)

yeah i heard these guys back in november and they are probably my favorite band. The cd is no doubt the best cd ever created. Every song is good and you never get sick of it. But only listen to it from beginning to end, dont start from the middle or something because that ruins it. The cd is a story about the bands friend overdosing on rat poison. After taking the poison he goes into a coma for days and dreams about good fighting evil. When he wakes up he jumps off of a building.

hmmmm....i heard their cd was good, but i saw them open for perfect circle this a few months ago and i thought they sounded like ass. they were playing on a fucked up sound board, but it basically sounded like the singer was just yelling incoherently. he does cool tricks with the mic stand though

I enjoy Mars Volta a little but even I will admit that they suck, they are a terrible band, and the guy is just whinning thorough out the whole CD. This is the CD summed up:

tracks 1-3:Ever one sounds almost exactly the same...Heavy screaming, loud music.
tracks 4-10(however many their are):Crap, boring crap that all sounds the same!

Their first single was Sun et Lumiere/ Inertiatic ESP. They're second single is Televators (track #9). And the video for that is really cool.

That's really interesting about the CD. I've downloaded about a dozen songs of thiers, and think they're awsome, I'd love to hear the album the way it's supposed to be listened to (to bad I'm too poor to actually ever buy cds). Whoever said they all sound the same, I couldn't disagree more. I find they have a song that could fit into every genre of music.
