OK, so  i saw TMV for the first time last night, i have only ever heard Frances and Eriatarka from De Loused. OK the band were awesome, the extended jams seemed to work and held the audience in a trance, so i'm hooked, i've seen the light, is there anyone out there doing stuff like this?

I've posted a review of sorts somewhere else on prog archives but i just needed to write this so that someone could perhaps say"yeah i know how you feel". Simply awesome!

There stands Olias to outward to build a ship
Holding within all we hope to retain
The frame will be so built to challenge the universe
Clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain

Really, though TMV are great.  I don't think there is anyone quite like The Mars Volta, and to some people that's probably a good thing!

TMV bassist Juan Alderete says Theodore is the best drummer he's ever worked with...this coming from a guy who plays with Travis Smith in Racer X. TMV has an amazing rhythm section.

I would disagree. I think Frances is FAR better than deloused even though
they both are great albums.

One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity
