The Mars Volta !

[Blender]

yea the show at the acc was good and all but man i lost respect for the volta. They sounded terrible.

 

Chilli's were incredible though...especially the open to by the way with london calling.....oooooo baby i melted.

the mars volta sucked live. again.

[Shortcut To Moncton]

That would suck royally. Perhaps luckily, I have never seen them live.

I'm really having a hard time imagining the Mars Volta sound in their albums being translated into a live show, it must be really damn hard.

yeah its like a big wall of sound. although the percussionist (Marcel Rodriguez) deserves huge props for being amazing. He came out in the Chili's set and completely stole the show.

think of nine people doing their own thing for 35 minutes then bringing it all back together for a few minutes to end the song.

 

wall of sound - nay, canyon of sound.

[Shiri]

Some bands are just album type of bands and not live type of bands I suppose.
