Comatorium.
11.29.12 | Yeah, 1. Then 2. Then Day of the Baphomets. Then 6. |
ThunderNeutral21

gwynbleidd
11.29.12 | "yes"

ThunderNeutral21

gwynbleidd
11.29.12 | Yeah Cassandra is pretty overlong, but I mean... Cygnus man... Cygnus.....Vismund Cygnus. |
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | yea cygnus is their best song |
undertakerpt
11.29.12 | @thunderneutal, i could go onto describe why it's their best song, but i really cants be arsed, but what i will say is at the 8.15 mark, the Hispanic Groove Bomb goes off. |
InFiction
11.29.12 | Yeah, go chronologically. Their first 3 albums are their best anyway. |
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | ok but it sucks |
Starblind
11.29.12 | My first album was, predictably, De-Loused. However, I do prefer their later stuff. |
undertakerpt
11.29.12 | here's a rough guide to their best songs: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=210063&listid=112327 |
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | thats a very rough guide
cause its rong |
undertakerpt
11.29.12 | @thunderneutral, you are funny, i wonder if we'll ever cross paths one day and have a nice chat |
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | dude sweet |
Starblind
11.29.12 | Amputechture is an album that changed my life, and my view on music as a whole. |
Uranium
11.29.12 | bedlam if you want in your face, jamming awesomeness.
noctourniquet if you want electro-structured short songs but beware because it is not similar to the rest of the catalog.
amputechture is amazing as well (personal favorite) but you might be thrown off by the sporadic-ness. |
undertakerpt
11.29.12 | tetragrammaton was the first song i heard (well apart from the widow on kerrang or somthing once) and i fell in love
|
ThunderNeutral21
11.29.12 | fell in love with shit? wow dude sorry to hear it |
milkwizard
11.29.12 | a good starting point is listening to any other band, the mars volta are pretty damn overrated |
undertakerpt
11.29.12 | i'm starting to think that you guys dont appreciate drugs and the mars volta as much as me |
Uranium
11.29.12 | sputnik has a lot of gay users who bash on tmv but then go and 5 deftones |
wacknizzle
11.29.12 | I agree with Pit, Tetragrammaton is awesome, so is Day Of The Baphomets and Viscera Eyes. |
tommygun
11.29.12 | just go chronologically
enjoy |
sniper01
11.29.12 | chronologically, stop at bedlam |
ShadowAmI
11.29.12 | start with at the drive in |
GreyShadow
11.29.12 | 1 is accesable/awesome, 2 is the holy grail, 3-5 have some great stuff but hold off on everything for the time being, and 6 is actually starting to top 1 for me. |
wacknizzle
11.29.12 | start with at the drive in [2] |
NightmareCinema16
11.29.12 | De-Loused, I'd say. Then everything else is your option.
I highly suggest Frances the Mute next. It's brilliant. |
KeithStone582
11.29.12 | Start with De-loused then get blown away by Frances |
milkwizard
11.30.12 | "i'm starting to think that you guys dont appreciate drugs and the mars volta as much as me"
im starting to think youve done way too many drugs, thinking the mars volta is really that good, deloused was good, everything else really isnt that good, or even original |
Uranium
11.30.12 | typical sheep statement |
rapideyemovement
11.30.12 | Thanks guys. I think I'll just go chronologically without skipping anything. |
undertakerpt
11.30.12 | drugs!!! |
NightmareCinema16
11.30.12 | I don't take drugs and I still think the Mars Volta is great. |
