DE-LOUSED IN THE COMATORIUM

The Mars Volta can be summed up in one word: crazy. They are a crazy group. If you ever have a chance to see them in concert then you definitely should. They will play around 4 songs and get them to last for who knows how long. Deloused in the Comatorium was one of my picks for album of 2003. It's fast when it needs to be and it slow when it does. The closer 'Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt' is a big highlight on the album. It even has a bass solo, how often do you hear them anymore? This album is a must have but also one that takes a little getting use to, worth every bit you will pay for it. You might also want to check out the Tremulent Ep they put out in 2002.
