YES!!!!!!! A New album from our boys. I can't wait for this album.. I'm so excited. The track names are sick. In a good way. Release Date: August 15th Tracklisting: 1. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60612 - A Vicarious Atonement (7:21) 2. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60613 - Tetragrammaton (16:43) 3. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60614 - Vermicide (4:17) 4. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60615 - Meccamputecture (11:04) 5. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60616 - Asilos Magdalena (6:36) 6. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60617 - Vicsera Eyes (9:25) 7. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60618 - Day of the Baphomets (11:58) 8. http://www.thecomatorium.com/board/index.php?showtopic=60619 - El Ciervo Vulnerado (8:59) Please note that all these times are from The Comatorium and might/might not be true. If they are the true times thats really good. Groovy. I'm kinda dissapointed they got rid of Storm. But this guy's album cover seems fine for TMV. [Jeff Jordan] 
And I'd like to keep this thread just for people who are anticipating this... 
Thanks for moving it to Press, adminos. ------------- [IMG]http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i165/amorfous/astro-1.jpg"> |

As long as we keep talking about prog and The Mars Volta then I don't think it'll be moved. So don't drift away! I would like too see what will they do after two brilliant albums (masterpiece[?]). They've changed their sound alot too since De-lused and that's a good thing since they'll keep alot of people scratching their heads and in suspense also. CAN'T WAIT!!! (along with the DT DVD) -------------

IS that the cover artwork? It looks pretty weird...And the titles are sick indeed. I couldn't help noticing the title of the first song... that "vicarious" reminds me of something else recently heard!

As they say the third's a gem, so lets hope that saying is true for TMV.
And might I add I'm pleased that this follow up to Frances has only been a year rather than the average 3+ years of many other bands. ------------- |

Hmm, I hope those are the correct track times! If so, the album is 76:23 long! That sounds pretty good to me!
I can't wait for this! I believe there was a news posting about a week or so ago, but not with the album art or the track times. Thanks for sharing this! -Marc. ------------- I know what I like and I like what I know. I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose free will.

holyCrap!! is this album looking to be TMV's most intense?? judging from the names, it probably will.... and that's sweet. 1's a cover of a tool song. 2's about creating words with tetris pieces 3's about that book series where rats and mice are knights and queens and stuff. 4's about the people who fix and make gundam's and evangelion's 5's about holy bee's and flies 6 is about people with eyes on their intestines 7's about a bunch of horney goat and ram head people 8's about a circus who's secrets are vulnerable mark my words. -------------

haha Vicariousness is the theme of modern prog this year didn't anyone tell you? TMV I love you all, but I hope they found someone brave enough to tell Omar "Look you are amazing, an amazing guitarist amazing composer, but seriously chill out, the other half of musicality is blending, yes everyone can be musical on their own but I can smash a puzzle together with a hammer too" That is all. |

There's rumors of a single being released June 28th. tbh I hope they actually don't release a single for Amputecture. "Thanks for sharing this!" No prob, Marc.  ------------- [IMG]http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i165/amorfous/astro-1.jpg"> |

I'm really excited about this new album. Of all the new prog bands, The Mars Volta are my favorite. There sound is so original and they really never fail to intrigue me. And judge from the song lengths they're not going to sell out. -------------

So pretentious sounding, but I don't care, I still like them and will probably get the album when it comes out.

As if "Vicarious" were a word Tool invented.  Fanboys annoy me (moreso on other forums where they're seriously accusing TMV of wanting to be Tool).------------- https://soundcloud.com/erin-susan-jennings" rel="nofollow - Bedroom guitarist".

Well then I'm blind. I can't see TMV trying to be like Tool.

Oh man I can't wait for this album. But I thought I read somewhere earlier that Storm WAS doing the album art... Oh well. This new art looks pretty crazy, much more King Crimson. I'll pick up this album and "De-Loused", too. -------------

Wow, you're right that's really messed up! Seeing as the album is widely leaked already I dont see why they dont just go ahead and put it out there. I had my own cynical reasons about why they were waiting as long as August 22nd (TMV get a lot of college radio play, but there's not a lot of college radio in the summer, and seeing as most american schools go back the last week of august, TMV would be an easy add and would get a lot of radio play ). But now that theory is shot to hell. who knows?  ------------- http://www.myspace.com/altaic" rel="nofollow - http://www.myspace.com/altaic ALTAIC "Oceans Down You'll Lie" coming soon |
