Liked the video, and funny thing, i have qotsa and Mastodon as favorites too, the mars Volta i like for theyre wild licks and riffs.. God sommer fra en abonnent!
I love Noctourniquet. Every album from them is always different from the next. And Noctourniquet was the pinnacle of everything they had done just more refined. I can't believe when so called fans want a band to write the same album Every time. Omar once said his goal was to alienate TMV fans with every new album. But us hardcore fans loved all of it. It's funny when someone says that album doesn't sound like TMV. How can it not they wrote it. Lol
Saw them live once. Unfortunately there was no "take the veil cerpin taxt" and we weren't invited to the after show party either. We witnessed instead how the roady tried throwing multiple bottles of beer toward Omar standing by the second floor window. We would have really liked some beer, too, but instead we saw the roadie fail again and again, smashing each bottle against the wall. At the third bottle we knew what was gonna happen already and we told him to give up and just give us the beer but he instead broke another two. Toward the end of our wait outside my friend played rascuache on his phone, angering the man Omar himself, as his bushy head twisted on the windowsill to reveal a confused Omar's face. We got some autographs at the end, one on a guitar pick that I used so much that the autograph just faded from heavy use. 10/10
I saw them live when they opened for A Perfect Circle about a decade ago. I had heard some of their music, knew the guitarist and singer were from ATDI, and knew what they looked like, but had no idea what to expect from their live show. I dont know if Ive ever been as positively surprised by a live show in my life. I still dont listen to a ton of The Mars Volta, but would drop my hard earned dollars to see them live any time.
I remember seeing The Mars Volta at The Filmore in 2005. I was front row and my ears were ringing for a week. Omar's guitar set up was absolutely insane.
Saw Mars Volta, 2006, Vegoose show in Las Vegas. If I recall right, the set list was 4 songs and the last song was 45 minutes long. It was like seeing a band on another planet.
@@radioactivetrees9626 there was some great bands that day. It was cool because I lived in the houses next to Sam Boyd and just walked over there. Racouteurs, Killers and Mars Volta performed some great sets that day.
Yes they were absolutely incredible band I saw them live 3 times in 2004, 2006 and 2010. They were amazing each time. The 2006 performance was my favourite it was just before Amputechture came out They played an extended version of Drunkship of Lanterns off of Deloused that was basically just a freestyle jam must have been about 25 to 30 mins of just incredible music I've never seen a band just click on stage like they did theirs albums are great but man were they good live...
Soon as he hit the ground They lowered a tow that Split both his lips to the gills. Can’t listen to it without crying. Close friend killed himself right before we found the album. It helped me thru the shit.
Amputechture has been my all-time favorite record since I first heard it my freshmen year of high school in 2009. That still hasn't changed a decade later. The soundscapes they conjured up on there still leaves me in awe.
Honestly when i first listen to the album i hated it but after a few listens I have a really conection to it the lyrics and guitar bass and drums,keyboards everything!!!!bedlam is a great album top 1 album in my life
I can happily and proudly say that ever since i was nothing but a fetus, my dad showed me what At the Drive In and The Mars Volta is and i can never thank him enough :)))
@@MrSnuffian Oof that's a tough one. I think Theodore lived more up to his potential in The Mars Volta. Now if i had to choose one of them i'd pick Pridgen. Unconventional choice. But he did an other worldly performance on Bedlam.
Lie Likes Music I’d go opposite, I feel as though he over drums and it tends to muddy up some parts of songs. I think it’s the Yahoo sessions where they perform Tetragrammaton and after he does the intro Omar seems visibly annoyed after walking away form the drum kit.
MEMORIES! i had my third apt in 2004, i was 20 , just broke up and was sleeping with random girls in my building, tons of drugs and just bought FRANces the Mute.what a great time TMV was like a soundtrack to 2004-05
@@LieLikesMusic I know that Norway isn't in the EU, but from what I know due to the trade agreement with the EU some EU laws still, apply. Regardless, I am curious if Article 13 had anything to do with those videos being taken down?
Thanks for the video Sir. The Mars Volta is on my top 5 favorite bands of all time. I also wish they come back full force free to do whatever Omar wants to do.
First saw them in March 2003 in support to the Chili Peppers, before their first album was out, they were incredible. Saw again in 2009 in Edinburgh, absolutely epic.
Cedric had some memorable lines: "Much like Omerta the quiet has shielded all intent", "Severance owed in the chamber of revolvers", "If you could see where I've been, you'd touch the hand that's touching sin" "Cruelty is the wrath of my Instrument"
Frances the Mute is easily one of my all time favs! I hope focusing on your favorite bands is temporary however, sounds like you could run out of things to say ahout them quite quickly.
I have been waiting for the new Tool album for such a long time - but a new TMV album would probably make me forget about it in an instant. Now my expectations for a TMV reunion are sky high.
They’re in the Top 3 post hardcore bands for sure, the only progressive band in that genre. Great band. You implied that the other guys from ATDI quit playing but Sparta started immediately after the break up too. We got two better bands from atdi breaking up.
I remember listening to Bedlam in Goliath when it was released and being completely lost; I really couldn't grasp the sound so for years I ignored the Mars Volta until earlier this year, I started with Comatorium and made my way through their years. I was completely blown away though I still can't get into Goliath as much as some hardcore fans. I am fond of their last two albums and believe Frances the Mute is their best performance.
@@LieLikesMusic I have! ATDI Mars Volta and QOTSA are some of my favorite bands too. Along with Modest Mouse, Islands, Man Man, Beirut and some others.
Such a shame you had to remove your other Mars Volta videos they were awesome, never thought that would happen or else I would've saved them in some way. Wishful thinking you will redo them trying to avoid any of those copyright infringements. I wish you lots of luck, views and likes in all your future videos.
I was listening to the album Deloused recently, well, i have a long relationship with this band and this album. I think pretty much didn't had the mentality that I have now, i wasn't very careful with my listenings and I think ruined the experience with this. I wish I had the mentality that I have know and the same enthusiasm that I had.
Jon Theodore is still one of my favorite drummers. For me, he's in my top 10 with Jon Stanier and Danney Carey etc etc etc.. And Deloused in the Comatorium is probably my favorite album from them.
There's a sad dude, he recorded a bunch of guitar songs on a parking lot. People liked his sad songs, so he re-recorded some in the studio. That's pretty much it! =)
Calling Amputechture the "calm before the storm" sounds so wrong to me. That album is not calm at all, it may not be as eccentric as Bedlam in Goliath, but the music is chaotic and extremely technical.
Jon Theodore is not on Tremulant either. Cool video but facts are skewed. Omar was more a shy type with ATDI also his lyrics may have appeared live but nowhere on the albums. Omar didn't even start playing guitar for studio albums until El Gran Orgo ep. Acrobatic Tenemant he's actually the bassist which is pretty trippy.
I love The Mars Volta and I am super excited for the new iteration but I am worried that it might be too influenced by this incarnation of ATDI and Antemasque both projects I've really enjoyed but not things I want crossing over with TMV
not sure how you can claim that deloused is their most popular and acclaimed album when Frances the mute outsold it in the US... It's their first main album so of course they're going to be a lot of people who heard it first you want to say something like this, but if we're going to make objective statements like best and most popular, we need to look at the facts.
Why would you review stuff you already like? What's the point of reviewing if you're going to have a bias opinion, being that you are reviewing your favorites?
I think you're missing the point of a channel like this. It's a discussion channel, making videos essays about music. not a review channel. Regardless tho, he explained in another comment that he's run into some copyright issues, and looks like he's just scaling things back maybe
So from now on: Only videos on Qotsa, Foo Fighters, Deftones, Mastodon and The Mars Volta!
Can't say that that's a bad thing
Liked the video, and funny thing, i have qotsa and Mastodon as favorites too, the mars Volta i like for theyre wild licks and riffs.. God sommer fra en abonnent!
And the Melvins?
John Frusciante please
Ok then
I just came here to say Noctourniquet is criminally underrated
That's the album that I didn't give enough attention to and now every time I replay it I'm discovering something new to love.
I love Noctourniquet. Every album from them is always different from the next. And Noctourniquet was the pinnacle of everything they had done just more refined. I can't believe when so called fans want a band to write the same album Every time. Omar once said his goal was to alienate TMV fans with every new album. But us hardcore fans loved all of it. It's funny when someone says that album doesn't sound like TMV. How can it not they wrote it. Lol
True!
FUCK YES !!!!
Idk man Ikey wasn’t really in it and the songs weren’t anywhere as good as what came before.Molloch was like the only song I liked
Mars Volta reunion is a dream coming true.
I hope they tour through Europe.
It sure is. If they come to Norway or scandinavia in general there's no way i'm missing that show.
Is a reunion??? No its not.
Cedric has stirred the rumor mill for a few years now but I truly hope they do finally come back, there is nothing else like TMV
Saw them live once. Unfortunately there was no "take the veil cerpin taxt" and we weren't invited to the after show party either.

I come from the future: it's happening. Go in peace.
I went to university in El Paso saw them a couple of times without realizing what they will become, i was a lucky man!!!
I love The Mars Volta so much. No other band sounds like them.
apart from king crimson
@@smittenthekitteninmittens2679 king crimson is is entirely different on their own lol
I really hope this comes to fruition. The idea of The Mars Volta shouldn't be dormant. It should always be moving and mutating.
Like king crimson

No other band has challenged me more than Volta. The rewards were worth the patience. All time favorite band.
I discovered this band because of you, now Deloused in the Comatorium is one of my favorite albums. Thank you so much
Wow that's awesome! Thank you so much for watching in the first place. It means a lot. At The Drive-in is also a fantastic band to check out!
Wait a second, what happened to your other videos about this band and the Ian Curtis' one?
@@thom7433 Long story short, i had some copyright issues. Had to take down like 30 videos or so.
What a shame, keep it up buddy your videos are awesome

The mars volta will always be my favorite band of all time.
Same. ♡
MR.NEVERSEEN Gaming second favorite for me!
wow i don’t think i’ve ever heard of a female who likes TMV
@@z0nnyyy we are a lot of girls loving TMV

OF ALL THE WARNINGS THAT YOU GAVE ME!!!! WITH ALL COMPONENTS IN THE FAULT!!! Lol I love that album.
Perfect band to cover during the summer. At The Drive In and The Mars Volta just makes so much sense during the summer.
I feel like I need to make a reply to this video called A Complete Introduction to The Mars Volta, because this is babyfood
Hopefully Jon Theodore will be on the new album...
I can happily and proudly say that ever since i was nothing but a fetus, my dad showed me what At the Drive In and The Mars Volta is and i can never thank him enough :)))
Became obsessed with the Mars Volta and At The Drive last year. A truly phenomenal band
You said it.
Lie Likes Music just out of curiosity, as both a QOTSA and Mara Volta fan, Theodore or Pridgen
@@MrSnuffian Oof that's a tough one. I think Theodore lived more up to his potential in The Mars Volta. Now if i had to choose one of them i'd pick Pridgen. Unconventional choice. But he did an other worldly performance on Bedlam.

I’ve been meaning to really try these guys out for a while now. Sense we’ve been wrong one of my ultimate favorites too
am i the only one that has Noctourniquet as his fav tmv album?
Same here, its both powerful and beautiful..

You could do Devendra Banhart
U gotta do Sparta !!
I wouldn't mind of Deantoni Parks returned as their drummer. But I hope Jon Theodor comes back. Maybe Zack Hill
Create video about Arcade Fire
They need to return but with Jon Theodore as their drummer just my opinion
