Radiohead, mostly for sentimental value.

I'm voting for TMV, but it's a really difficult choice; I love both bands, but TMV wins for overall originality.

Come on!  I personally don't even see how you can compare the two.  They are both very different... ah well... my vote went to The Mars Volta because they rock harder, are more complex and because they are simply more interesting.

Both great, but Radiohead is more influential and less pretentious.

I broke the tie in favour of Mars Volta. I find them far more interesting.

Because we're on a prog site, and this is a poll with one prog band and one non-prog band, I'll go for the prog band .

 This is a very wise notice.

I voted for Radiohead though I feel a very high potential in TMV.  They would gain interest and fans in "calming down" a little bit, giving some more structure to their music. Surfing on the dissonance wave, like KC did so well in time, requires experience. France the Mute has 15 to 20 minutes of unnecessary "noise" that doesn't bring anything to the listener and makes the CD quite difficult to listen to in one shot.

I hope that was meant as irony and NOT implying that you meant that radiohead was the prog band...

Radiohead - I've heard the name somewhere. Was that the alt rock band they often play on the radio?

Yes. Moreover TMV is filed in the same category in the Parisian record stores.

Good point there, although I still feel TMV fall off the dissonance wave with style.
