    The record label really messed up making them cut this song. One of the best tracks on the album. Might even be one of my favorite Mars Volta songs tbh

    The entire story of the album must be turned into a comic book at least, ideally a film or a series. Imagine the story of Cygnus being the last Tarantino feature.

    The 4 minute noise intro is classic Omar. Get through it as a listener and you get rewarded. The way Cedric and the guitars link up at the end. Man.

      Omar's mentioned influences like Throbbing Gristle before, the intro reminds me of them

      I would be surprised if that's actually why it's there. Tension and release is why TMV does this, the idea that the listener should have to pass some sort of trial to experience the song is a weird one, what would it add to the experience? Tension is one thing, but putting the listener through something unpleasant just to make the meat of the song sound better in comparison is weak, and TMV would never use such a cheap trick.

    • @seagers_studio

      tension and release is a good way of describing it to be fair

      Label: Omar, we think we can fit all 6 songs if you trim the noises a little bit, we got 4 mins from the title track, about 2.5 mins after The Widow, 4 mins before Miranda and more after
      Omar: F--k no
      Label: So we drop
      Omar: Drop the title track
      Label: So the album
      Omar: Album title stays

    It's been thirteen seconds since you all last said
    I've become the apparition you predicted for my death
    You said that flirting brings you closer to the end
    You can bait into the water but you'll never get the hint
    And like a stain of bricks goes dancing by your head
    Plucked from an icebox, grafted on my skin
    It's been thirteen seconds since you all last said
    (Don't you worry)
    I've become the apparition you predicted for my death
    You said that flirting brings you closer to the end
    (Don't you worry)
    You can bait into the water but you'll never get the hint
    And like a stain of bricks goes dancing by your head
    (Don't you worry)
    Plucked from an icebox, grafted on my skin
    [Verse 2]
    My coat has hid the marks, mink hits the shovel fix
    Near the sway of pendulums, boar abrasions and a kiss
    She said, "I'll never let them hurt you, I'll never let them in
    What you took from me is mine and what is mine I'll never give"
    Mascara glass in the molar weeds
    Her ash, a serpent infancy
    And his eye patch pussed through a gape of sand
    Into his shine a sedative (Into his shine a sedative)
    More and more the dirt collects
    And you'll never find her body now
    In a closet festered in secret air
    Blonde underneath her blackened hair
    And he never knew the colony
    Gestated in his bed
    Mingle with the carnivores
    You've something both in common now
    Till one day with his wasted breath
    Swollen throat and karma debt
    Set foot inside a parlor
    To find her drunken by receipts
    He held her by the ankles
    Gutted at the nave
    Yes gutted and depraved
    He tied a rope around her legs
    And let her hang for seven days
    This never happened, but I saw you leave
    And crawl into a bed of broken windows
    This never happened, but I saw you leave
    And crawl into a bed of broken windows
    This never happened, but I saw you leave
    And crawl into a bed of broken windows
    This never happened

    The only problem with this song is that the beginning is the best part, well the part after the 4 minute intro.

      What do you mean the bed of broken windows part is a fucking amazing climax to the song and segways well into the reprise of sarcophagi (which would have been the transition point to Cygnus had the record label not have been shit brained)

    Great song and great album. However, the ambient noise was always a self-indulgent habit I wish they could have dropped. It would be MORE progressive to edit down the album by removing the ambient “textures.”

      +Animalz BLC I agree with this. As it is, Frances the Mute (the album) feels more coherent and complete beginning and ending on the same melody. Frances the Mute (the single), while an excellent song, doesn't flow as well with the rest of the album. It works as more of a prelude to the album.

    Frances is great. But there's so much bullshit that it becomes a chore at times. I get the ambiance is a part of this band's soul, but holy shit I just wanna listen to the fucking song! I'm sick of having my ears torn out by the intro of this, or the outro of Cygnus, and seriously if I wanna listen to birds I can go to my back yard.
    EDIT: I'm gonna give this song's outro a pass since it ends with the guitar used in the Cygnus intro, which makes the segway absolutely PERFECT.
