So we finally got that Mars Volta acoustic album they promised! And it blows the original out of the water. A lot of the studio flourishes on TMV often felt distracting or even jarring. Stripped down to a sort of latin chamber pop, Que Dios Te Maldiga De Carazon proves that the Mars Volta boys are always full of surprises, and that their songwriting and emotional resonance remain compelling. A must-listen.
