Band Biography
In the wake of At the Drive-Ins break-up, Cedric and Omar decided to prog it up a notch, with the help of "sound manipulator" the not-yet-late Jeremy Ward. Thus began The Mars Volta. The group released their first album, De-Loused In The Comatorium in 2003, to general acclaim. Their second album, Frances The Mute, while recieving somewhat less acclaim, was still highly regarded by fans. Is this the future of prog rock. I for one hope so. Exciting. Visceral. Experimental. This is exactly what good hard rock and excellent prog metal is made of.
