5 stars Brilliant album, their best so far.

This morning I was so excited to get this album that I showed up at Best Buy early accidantally to get it. It was worth the wait. This album is absolutely amazing. "Tetragrammaton", "Viscera Eyes", and "Day of the Baphomets" are all standout tracks but the entire album is still a masterpeice of progressive rock.

The album is different from The Mars Volta's previous two releases, as they ditch the filler of noisemaking and decide to create lush sonic landscapes instead. The lyrics are everything I expect from the Mars Volta, and the songwriting and musicianship are top-notch.

The Green Tank | 5/5 |
