The Mars Volta
The new punk/prog band is about to release their new album, "Frances the Mute". Could you upload their first album "De-Loused in the Comatorium" (preferably with the extra bonus track "Ambuletz"), their EP "Tremulant", and "Frances the Mute" when it comes out? Also, maybe some of their famous jammy live material, perhaps?
Thanks. |

Mars Volta, indeed.
Yo. Tommy played De-Loused in the Comatorium on Extended Play back in the day, and I played the song "Cicatriz ESP" on BrainRock once. Jim has indeed said he liked the music, but has a problem with Cedric's vocals (or is Cedric the guitarist?) Anyway, I'm eventually donating it, so the word of the day is "maybe" and "patience." Ok that's two words.
PS, not intending to speak for Jim.

Jim is intrigued by the Mars Volta, and may just grow to like that voice someday. So the definitive answer is.....maybe.

When I first listened to The Mars Volta, it was kinda like Yes gone wrong. It's an interesting listen, but I'm not a big fan. I wouldn't be surprised if it came up, a lot of people would likely enjoy it.

welcome Josh. Moncton, hah? Even though I live in sunny San Diego, I've been to Moncton, in January no less. It was for work - maybe you still have a company called Phase Atlantic there?

I think we do actually, I think I remember seeing it while looking on monster.ca or something. Nice to know other people have been to this boring town. :P

Volta for the taking
Hey y'all,
If you want, I can rip Tremulant, Deloused, and Francis and upload. It may be later in the month (as I'm still awaiting my stuff to arrive in FL). Then, you can listen and decide, a novel concept indeed! Tommy |

I'll let y'all know when I can get some rips together. Hopefully my FTP login still works. If someone has the time, can y'all get me an updated login? Tommy |

I don't think we've changed the ftp login Tommy - let us know if you have problems...

Frances the Mute
Just got it yesterday and have listened to it maybe 3 times. It takes a while to get used to their often frantic sound but it is definitely interesting. Not too sure that I like the binder between songs and, like Jim, I sometimes have trouble with the vocalist's vocal effects (I don't mind when he is singing but sometimes he changes his voice that ends up sounding strange). I'll advise you if it grows on me to the point that I would recommend it.
(I am back. My password got deleted for some reason and I haven't taken the time to reset it. Sorry about the missed birthday greetings, new babies, and lack of general comments.) |

PS, Tommy, I don't have Tremulant, so when your stuff shows up, go ahead with that one.

Yo Jim, De-Loused in the Comatorium and Fraces the Mute are in your recieving folder. De-Loused has a few short tracks that work as intros to songs and such that I absorbed into the longer track. For example a 0:45 second and a 8:00+ minutes song is a nine minute song. It's all there.
Tommy, is Tremulant pretty good? PS, Jim, check out "L'Via L'Viaquez" first - Killer.
