5 stars The Mars Volta-Frances the Mute

After hearing a couple songs by the mars volta, they didnt really interest me at all, so I decided to just completely ignore them. Well, then I heard so much hype and good things about them, I just couldnt take it anymore. I had to hear them. So I bought Frances the Mute -- and it astonished me. It is so different, so odd, yet so beautiful and amazing. "Cygnus... Vismund cygnus", the first track, has some of the most incredible moments on the album in my opinion, however I must say that the main attraction on Frances the Mute is the 32-minute long "Cassandra Gemeni". "Miranda, that Ghost just isnt Holy anymore" is one of the creepiest and oddest songs I have ever heard. This album is groundbreaking, different, emotional, and just downright amazing. I strongly recommend it.

5/5
