Simply, The Mars Volta are one of the leading acts of 21st century progressive rock, so which is your favorite album of theirs?
Mine has always been 'Frances the Mute'.

I love all their albums including Noctourniquet which got a lot of beating at the time of release, I think I started with Frances which the first half of it imo is TMV at its best but that second half makes me wanna sleep.

Anyway my fav is Amputechture!

One of the first three depending on my mood.

De-loused all the way. FTM is great, too. Then they lost me with Amputechture.

De-Loused in the Comatorium. It blew me away when I first heard it.
