Freaking Killing!!!! This is definitely one of my favorite rock bands of all time and I’m a big Rush fan, so those time signature changes are right down my alley! Thomas Pridgen is a straight up beast! He virtuosity on the drums is to be marveled at.......and I’m a professional drummer!
Omar’s a fucking ass. He fired one of their keyboardists for taking notes on a song and then joked about it like it was nothing, and also just endlessly disrespected Jim Ward and ATDI. Watch their Nardwuar interview. He’s arrogant, and just wasn’t punched in the face quite enough growing up.
He was very honest there, its a shame he stopped posting. Like I said he talked about how he didnt see himself as a great singer, talked about how his lyrics often dont make sense and he said they arent meant to make sense, and talked about how the band doesnt make much money and how they are always in "budget mode". Lots of bands dont talk about that stuff but he was very open about it.
the part about them not making a lot of money is nonsense. theyre millionaires. i actually sometimes don't realize how big this band is. They toured with RHCP, System of a Down and won a grammy, omar was on cover of Rolling Stone. Also have a huge fan following in south america and other parts of the world. Their peak in 2005 in google trends shows them above RHCP in popularity before stadium arcadium. For reference, in google trends, TMV was at least 10-100 times more popular than Ariel Pink, and their peak was 10 times more popular than Mac Demarco's peak. And if you set it to worldwide, it's not even close, TMV is 100 times more searched than either of those godfathers of indie rock. It kinda blows my mind
@@morrisalanisette9067popularity is one thing, getting fucked over on the percentages of residual revenues and any form of money thru contracts via the label is an entirely different beast. idk dude i wouldn’t just assume til you see their bank statements or know what it’s like to work in the music industry teehee
Thomas Pridgen's drumming on this song is one of the single most amazing drum pieces you can ever hear. He's basically a Michael Jordan/ Wayne Gretzky of drumming. There are other drummers who can do more complex things but I've never seen anyone who can match his physicality. It's off the chart.
Pridgen was probably the most technical and talented drummer they had, but honestly the hardest for me to listen to. Just pure testosterone. Jon Theodore was always my favourite. Power and finesse. When I finally got to see them live it was when Blake was sitting in. Great player, dude earned his money that night. But, OG Theodore was THE MAN
Dear Omar, I love you and your music. Please bring back Adrian. We all miss his awesome sax and flute. Like this if you want the horns back in the Volta!!!
Came back to doubt yourself but broke in two They find it punctual with idle tooth I'll find something to shake by the roots I crawl along the ceilings in your room The cold is spinning thread to answer you I need something made of freewill Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? I bring an avalanche of Toltec bones Contaminated cravings if you choose To play something that aches for a spill Leave out the meat for that contact high Inhale the vapors and let the hangman smile For that something to shake by the roots Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Bring me the tame Witness germinates in the child That word of mouth stutters Blink at the lonely dice Bring me the tame Witness germinates in the child That word of mouth stutters Blink at the lonely dice (Don't know...) Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl?
@lifesglorydead Well, The Mars Volta are very King Crimson inspired. Especially The Bedlam in Goliath. Listen to the song "Goliath". It's not too different than King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man".
FACT!: This album's lyrics were all mostly written from a Ouija board game, a very old authentic evil ouija board... don't believe me? its mentioned on their interviews about making the album :)
The guy on the Maracas is killing it.
I believe that's Marcel Rodriguez Lopez?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The man can play Wax Simulacra with maracas, what a legend.
RIP Ikey and only the best wishes for Juan. This will always be my favorite band
Thomas Pridgen is the most epic drummer of the 21st century. Unbelievable!!!!!! What an awesome fucking band!
THOMAS-FUCKIN-PRIDGEN!!!! MONSTER!!! And Cedric sings almost clean on this one! :D COOL!!! :D
Lol
He is singing with an harmonizer. That’s why
whoever mixed this set rocks. they gotta be one of the hardest bands to record live.
the mixing is fuckin mediocre at best, get your ears checked
That‘s because they always sounded like shit live. And I‘m a huge fan.
Man you couldn’t be more on point. I want names. lol

@sebaswildboy I Hope it's nothing serious
I think everyone knows he’s bad ass considering he used to play with paul Gilbert in racer x. He’s been a legend long before TMV bro
@@utubedestroysmytimechill out. Music snobs like you are the worst. He was just stating what was on his mind.
I heard this song once shopping at best buy on the PA.
any fan of the mars volta is a friend of mine, definitely great human beings.

Huge fan of TMV, Pridgen's drumming on Bedlam is amazing as hell. Seeing them live in Providence was fucking outstanding.
I love how at least half of the audience has no idea how to react to them
That keyboardist is definitely feeling the groove!!!
omg omg omg the drummer O.O
it's not the drummer, is Sir Thomas Pridgen.
I love how clearly you can hear Ikey in these performances. Clearer than some of the albums.
Seen the Band in 2006 opening for the Peppers been a fan since ................great show

BokuPower listen to kingston wall.
Thanks! I'll check it out.
He is extremely impressive. I agree he is in the "freak of nature" category in terms of physicality.
Let's not forget Zach hill
This guy plays out of his mind! Anyone recommend other bands that sound like the mars volta? Would really appreciate it
pridgen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is all
F****** A RIGHT my friend!
:( Miss you guys so much... You guys straight up made the most unique music iv ever heard.
They’re back
For me this era was the best of their career!
Isaiah Ikey Owens. Psychedelic keyboard 0:33
I appreciate the work of this guy too much.
RIP
Juan Alderete is the most underrated member of this band.. they would be nowhere without him or someone of his caliber.
+Max DC Bullshit, he's nowhere near to underrated. He plays with top bands beside the volta like Deltron 3030, and Omar's side projects.
Take the bass and drums out of Volta and it all falls apart completely.
especially the bass
You're right, it's the best.
Juan is top notch.
Still miss my man Thomas with TMV 🔥
Thomas Pridgen of course, but this song is also so damn good, I am consistently blown away by this every time I listen to it.
It's blazing the whole way
RIP Ikey.
Guys, you are geniuses. Thank you so much.
that intro though... Pridgen is spectacular
SPECTACULAR(LY BAD AT KEEPING TEMPO)?
Why yes, sir. Yes he is.
Keith Moon couldn't keep tempo either. Drumming isn't only about timing. Besides, these guys were always messy live.
My goodness!! ❤
I don’t remember this episode of it’s always sunny where Dennis plays bass for the Volta. Must’ve missed this one.
The gang starts a prog rock band.
He is dealing to try with another mid-life crisis, peaking once again in a prog rock band
still love your work!!
"Blink at the lonely guys" in the captions LOOOL
God I love this band
Those drums!!! Wow!!!
wonderful
ive decided not to purchase a nissan based off of how poorly pridgens drums were mixed in this
LOL
any car company that can’t mix drums is surely makes bad cars as well!
🎉🎉🎉 lmao
Literally the whole band's mix was off 😂
They have to drop it some in the mix to keep people's faces intact.
If you think that this is like hearing three songs played at the same time, you've never heard TMV
so wild and so good
Me encanta este tanta
I see this in my CZcams suggestions. The drummer is great! And the guitarists are good.
awesome...
este tema esta buenisimo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
perfect
Thomas Pridgen, no words to describe.
Esto es lo que mandamos desde México con amor.
the horns were amazing
YAHOOO.....OOOO!
Haha, funny Yahoo bit at the end aside, that was an amazing performance! :D
So much great noise wedged into those two and a half minutes.
MI BANDERA DE MÉXICO, AHÍ EN ALTA!!!!
4 Shows vivo Rio 2023 Brasil.
cant wait for the new album X)
Sameee, so excited to hear The Mars Volta again!
Pridgen was probably the most technical and talented drummer they had, but honestly the hardest for me to listen to. Just pure testosterone. Jon Theodore was always my favourite. Power and finesse. When I finally got to see them live it was when Blake was sitting in. Great player, dude earned his money that night. But, OG Theodore was THE MAN
I actually find it an amazing experience watching Thomas Pridgen play. Brings me great joy! 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🙆♂️
WHAT A JAM all them cats are top shelf
la mejor banda del mundo es latina! the mars volta!!!!
Bestias
Best band ever.
que energia
Qué buena banda
¡Está canción está con madre! :D
Dear Omar,
I love you and your music.
Please bring back Adrian. We all miss his awesome sax and flute.
Like this if you want the horns back in the Volta!!!
barbaro el baterista, Thomas Pridgen...!
honestly one of my favorite songs to get baked to
You are one fast baker
A little RUSH influence ! ❤️ nice
Whammy, Pridgen in absolute top notch form
Came back to doubt yourself but broke in two
They find it punctual with idle tooth
I'll find something to shake by the roots
I crawl along the ceilings in your room
The cold is spinning thread to answer you
I need something made of freewill
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
I bring an avalanche of Toltec bones
Contaminated cravings if you choose
To play something that aches for a spill
Leave out the meat for that contact high
Inhale the vapors and let the hangman smile
For that something to shake by the roots
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
Bring me the tame
Witness germinates in the child
That word of mouth stutters
Blink at the lonely dice
(Don't know...)
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Am I waiting now?
Does my waiting howl?
Bedlam is the best album I know of for all bands
great
Lo que toca Juan, lo que toca Thomas, mamita linda...!!
WOW!!!!!!!!! 👍
I still jam bedlam weekly
I find myself thinking it’s their best next to amputechture
Joder ke bruto el baterista!! grandeeees!
I love you so fucking much! This is powerful artistic expression right here! I hope you are all in love with life and doing what you want.
Peak tmv, Thomas’ energy brought something out of those guys.
@lifesglorydead Well, The Mars Volta are very King Crimson inspired. Especially The Bedlam in Goliath. Listen to the song "Goliath". It's not too different than King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man".
2:37 practice at 0.5xspeed
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucking hell.
Ikey's organ sounds great here
@AckAttack77 I am honored haha ;) This band is genius!
@sickbo121 what did they play,I didnt get to go.Maybe glad not know
🐐
drummer MVP
100%
in the last notes of the song you can clearly see prigens turn from human to pure light
Todo una droga auditiva esta melodía...
How many different songs are being played at once in this?
Just one Grammy winner.
Everyone that voted must have been high, also.
At once and at the same time! Very talented band but a little enjoyable!
(Upbeat Rock Music)
i love how everyone is like trippin out a bit
Where can get the full concert on 720p? I need it :'O
¿En qué debes estar conectado para disfrutar ésto?
the fuck just happened?
Fuck you
El Paso Texas just happened
FACT!: This album's lyrics were all mostly written from a Ouija board game, a very old authentic evil ouija board... don't believe me? its mentioned on their interviews about making the album :)
My ex used to write me really cryptic and poetic love letters... And I just used Mars Volta lyrics in my love letters back to him 🤣
FUCK YEAH!🤯
I kind of agree with you,hes awesome, but his voice is very nasally but I mean as a front man he has tons of energy and great stage presence
esto si es musica..
viva mexico cabrones¡¡¡
Volve Omaaar Volveee
Come here music festivals 2023
@AckAttack77 haha, if i meet someone and they are into the mars volta, we get along perfectly almost instantly.
So the videos are still on youtube? Could you please give me a link to them or something, i'm gonna get my popcorns ready!
Wow. That long ass fill at 1:30 is sick. Well, the sticking was fucking sick.
