The Mars Volta. New Album.


This came out of nowhere for me.  New self-titled album from The Mars Volta.  What a great thing when a broken-up okayish-band regroups after 10 years, crosses genres while maintaining some sonic continuity, and creates a timeless and inspired opus.  What an accomplishment. Confrontationally creative. Hits musically first, then you realize you are also listening to an abundance of audiophile goodness as well.  Wasn’t really a fan of The Mars Volta before this album, but this is a blast.

I like it. Does anyone else think it sounds like Flaming Lips doing the Chipmunks Biggest Hits?
