FRANCES THE MUTE

The first thing I based my self before rating this album 4 1/2 stars, is that I enjoy it more and more after each listenings. And let me thing that poeple who rate it poorly may not have given Frances The Mute the time to hypnotize their brain, Because I would have rate it the same way 3 month ago when I bought it. This album is one of those you will never stop discovering stuff because their is so much news ideas inside. And is'nt what progressive rock should be all about? The stranges beats, The sounds effects, The weirds and (so much) beautifusl melodies... etc.. Espanols music, Rock and Roll, pop, psychedelic, the Mars Volta are toutching a bit of all to create a very new style of rock. I mean REALLY new. we can feal a lot of passion and impulsion in the guitar playing Omar A Rodriguez-Lopez, and so much differents emotions in the voice''s'' of Cedric Bixler Zavala. And beside the ''affro team'' all others musicians have their words to say to make Frances The Mute an incomparable album. Drumming: WOW! Keyboards: WAH! Mars Volta: KAYABONGA...

Bref Frances The Mute IS great. Just buy it and give it A LOT of time and of attentives listenings. I put only 4 1/2 stars now because I still find some lenghts in some psychedelics moments.. But I sure that in one month, I'll be mad at me to not have rate it: MASTERPIECE.
