The Mars Volta reforming?

[thrashmetl]

I saw them with Thomas on drums, one of the best shows I’ve seen.

Me too, s**t was INSANE! I’d seen them a number of other times, but with him blasting the drums the rest of the band was literally standing there in awe watching him play the entire show. That dude is a BEAST!

You can have Frances.

I'll take Deloused or Bedlam II.

Listening to Bedlam this afternoon. I gotta admit…It’s as strong as Frances and almost as much as Deloused.

It's a great album.

My 2nd favourite behind Deloused.

Me too, I saw that tour, it was incredible. Like watching a controlled tornado or something for two hours....
Thomas really drove those tunes.



Anyway, really looking forward to some new stuff, thanks for posting that new tune!

Interesting that we all have different tastes......... .

I thought Jon Theodore was better in the MV than Pridgen.

I don’t think Pridgen was better, just different and more entertaining live. That dude just hits soooooo hard and his technical ability is just insane. From what I read, Pridgen said they just told him to go nuts. It would be interesting to see what he would have done if they had just told him to do his own thing.

Bump for another new track, I like this one better than the first. Still has more of a solid structure than most previous TMV stuff, but I still expect we will get the craziness we all know and love when the full album drops.

That new track is a bit of a departure from 'old-school' Mars Volta.

It feels like a really long intro.
