I think Old Money, Se Dice Bisonete, & A Manual Dexterity are generally regarded as his best solo albums

this album is awful
no really, i love frances the mute and de-loused, and most of their other stuff is quite fine as well.
but honestly, do the tones/lyrics on this make anyone else cringe everytime?

@Taxt I think I heard that song before. They played it during the Coachella performance. This song (although people don't

know if it's new Volta or not) is fucking awesome.

Skip to 1:40 for the song.

just because there isn't a ton of wankin off. it's refreshing to hear them do songs that are acually songs.

EverythingEvil, the reason we agree on everything is probably the fact that you're my step-son.

I love the "crazy" Mars Volta, but it sometimes bugs me that they go off into other shit when they're doing a live performance. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's just, "What!?"

I saw them live in the 8th grade, although I pretend it didn't happen because I hadn't heard any of their music before then, and had my musical tastes blossomed by then I would have still not enjoyed it, i dont think. They seem like the kind of band that's easier to get into starting with studio releases.
