| Escape the Fate BLOWS
This is how I would rank the greatest band of all time. | 1 | | The Mars Volta Frances the Mute
This album contains the legendary Cassandra Gemini. This reminds me of 9th grade when I used to listen to the Widow all the time and all my friends thought TMV sucked. Cygnus.. Vismund Cygnus is the highlight song for me. | 2 | | The Mars Volta De-Loused in the Comatorium
This is back when there were only 5 dudes in the band. This one has one of the most epic album openings of all time. NOW I'M LOOOOOOSTT. You can't go wrong with Inertiatic ESP, This Apparatus Must Be Unearthed, Televators, Eriatarka, Roulette Dares... Fuck, this album rules. | 3 | | The Mars Volta Amputechture
People give this album a lot of shit. I can see why because Vicarious Atonement, although a beautiful song, is a little too long for an opening track. Tetragrammaton kicks ass. The single, Vermicide, has a pretty good chorus but doesn't do much more. Viscera Eyes and the Day of the Baphomets will always be my two favorite Mars Volta songs. Love the segue between the two. | 4 | | The Mars Volta The Bedlam in Goliath
While this contains a handful of great tracks, like Metatron, and Goliath, I always get bored after Ouroborous and put on Frances the Mute. The drumming is awesome in this album, but I miss when the Mars Volta was a little more dark. This is a lot more in your face. Not to say it doesn't kick ass.. I just feel like the band has ceased to give off the mysterious vibe they gave from the start.. The jam at the end of Aberinkula rules. | 5 | | The Mars Volta Octahedron
I couldn't get into any of this besides Cotopaxi. | |

11.04.10 | I completely agree with this TMV ranking. | coneren
11.04.10 | more escape the fate | igloodude
11.04.10 | Oh, and I'm pretty sure that Frances the Mute was recorded when they were bigger than a five-piece. | taroo
11.04.10 | ETF >>>>>> TMV | BigHans
11.04.10 | if The Mars Volta were actually the best thing music had to offer I would legitimately kill myself. | MasBarHigeuoris21
11.04.10 | Don't really know anything about TMV. Tried listening to Frances the mute while I was tripping on DMX but it was too far out there for me even then. Never listened to ETF but I agree they suck. Don't know why sputnik has kept that stupid video embedded for so long!! Take it off already!! Nobody cares about ETF! | trailofdead91
11.04.10 | "yeah there was like a billion people credited on ftm"
I know John Frusciante was one of them.

11.04.10 | Hep Kat, how would you rank their discography? | HaloDude442
11.04.10 | i agree, mostly. I actually really enjoy Octahedron, so i'd switch it with bedlam | HaloDude442
11.04.10 | i agree, mostly. I actually really enjoy Octahedron, so i'd switch it with amputechture | Bitchfork
11.04.10 | Omg escape the fate blows but tmv totally doesn't. | HaloDude442
11.04.10 | i agree, mostly. I actually really enjoy Octahedron, so i'd switch it with amputechture | G3N3R1C
11.04.10 | my TMV ratings list is better. :P | coneren
11.04.10 | i agree, mostly. I actually really enjoy Octahedron, so i'd switch it with amputechture | G3N3R1C
11.04.10 | both octa and ampu are better than deloused and frances (well, except for l'via. which is easily their best song). h8az gonna h8. | trailofdead91
11.04.10 | Hep Kat, I didn't know you were ranking them. But you don't need to be rude. And G3N3RIC, sorry my list isn't good as yours but if you think Octahedron is better than Deloused I can't take you seriously. But that's cool that you liked Amputechture so much. | kangaroopoo
11.04.10 | 2,1,4,3, agree on 5 | Bitchfork
11.05.10 | 4, 5=2, 3, 1 | sniper
11.05.10 | This is the perfect ranking. Amp and Deloused flip-flop for me but still yeah. | bloc
11.05.10 | Escape the Fate is better | MaskAtTheMasquerade
11.05.10 | 1,2,4,3,5 | sniper
11.05.10 | shut up bloc | MaskAtTheMasquerade
11.05.10 | lol | Strider
11.05.10 | Escape the Fate is much better than TMV, I've recently rated their last release a 5 ;) | trailofdead91
11.05.10 | Lol nah, you're not that dumb, Strider. | SowerKraut
11.05.10 | 2, 1, 3/5, 4
And Vermicide is not the single, its Viscera Eyes. | Ire
11.05.10 | good ranking
move octa up to 3 and amp to 4 and you got my order | whywontyoudie
11.05.10 | NO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHESNO, THERE'S NO LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF YOUR FURTHEST REACHES | SowerKraut
11.05.10 | Was that necessary? | climactic
11.05.10 | o hey i dont like a band gonna make a list proclaiming my hate | whywontyoudie
11.05.10 | yes, it's my favorite part of FTM. | SowerKraut
11.05.10 | Best part: Instrumental section of Cicatriz ESP. | trailofdead91
11.05.10 | whywontyoudie, fuck yeah. Climactic, i don't know that much about ETF. I just watched that issues video and thought it was terrible. I only called it that because of the ads. |
