I went to Highschool with them. They were in my art class as seniors and I was a freshman. First time I heard them at battle of the bands on our football field. I knew they would be world famous from 1 minute in!
Bro you have no clue! I've had the instrumental in my head but could never remember the name of this song!!! It popped on my Spotify and when it started playing it came right to my head that this was the song!! Thank you Spotify and thank you Mars Volta🤤🤤🍻🍻
I find it difficult to reconnect with it because I listened to it every day straight for a few months since I only had a discman. It's just burnt into my brain.
I was lying on a stretcher with a blood vessel in my neck severed, I had already lost about a litter of blood or so and the doctors didn't know if they were going to be able to stitch it or close it somehow, so I started singing this song to myself. It was an experience that I will never forget and the fact that The Mars Volta came to me at that moment where I didn't know if I was gonna live or die is one thing that truly makes me appreciate how this band has impacted my life. Omar, Cedric and everyone involved, you are true artists, whatever the hell that means.
I don't have a "link" to the information, but if you own the Francis The Mute CD the information is right there in the liner notes: "Joining the band for selected moments are: - Flea (trumpet and trumpet solos on The Window and Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore)" also: "- John Frusciante (first 2 guitar solos on L'via)"
The Mars Volta, pure classic! Music like this comes only once in a lifetime. The best way I can describe them; it is like finding wheat in a sea of chaff.
Serverus That ain’t no shit. This was the first tune I heard from them back in 2005. It was like a breath of fresh air that I hadn’t had in a very long time. With the climate of the music industry these days, fresh air doesn’t come along very often.
To the guys that wrote this and the man that sings this. THANK YOU. A freakin masterpiece. As a musician I would die happy having created something like this.
I remember seeing this music video on MTV when they were actually music television. I was a kid but the singer's amazing voice and the trippy video always stuck with me. Now i understand it more and wow im glad this song stayed in my head for all these years. MTV, go back to playing this great music damn it!
2021... I remember listening to this song as a sad lonely goth kid. Now I'm a sad lonely average adult and this song still is absolutely memorizing. 🖤🔥🖤
I was volunteering for an environmental agency going back 8 - 9 years now and some hippy dude played this in our van heading to a job. Such an eye opener to this band.
For your Karaoke: He's got fasting black lungs Made of clove-splintered shards They're the kind that will talk Through a wheezing of coughs And I hear him every night In every pore And every time he just makes me warm Freeze without an answer Free from all the shame Must I hide 'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone Look at how they flock to him From an isle of open sores He knows that the taste is such Is such to die for And I hear him every night On every street The scales that do slither Deliver me from... Freeze without an answer Free from all the shame Then I'll hide 'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone Oh Lord Said I'm, said I'm, said I'm, Said I'm bloodshot for sure Pale runs the ghost Swollen on the shore Every night In every pore The scales that do slither Deliver me from... Freeze without an answer Free from all the shame Then I'll hide 'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone Freeze without an answer Free from all the shame Let me die 'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone Like if you use it!
I always appreciated their music but the lyrics always left me nonplussed. Like brides bruised brains teetering above golden daisies bleeding pollen polka swing disaster crash diamond switch beholder
@@devinwatson4594 I don't think their lyrics are abstract at all, maybe a bit surreal at times but always symbolic which have their roots in a long history passed down from ancient times so needless to say when it comes to symbolism and what they represent, their meaning is fixed and easily understandable. As to your display of disconnected word poetry, which itself has roots in automatic writing, the cut-up technique, word vomit Etc... A very pretentious form only useful as a means and not an end. The best excuse for which could be that it represents the chaotic nature of reality but even that it is a misconception based on lack of perception. What has my life come to spending this much time replying to a TH-cam comment reply to another TH-cam comment, I feel like I'm going to Twilight Zone or maybe it's just the drugs or maybe both am I losing my mind...Lol
I remember watching MTV before school and I heard this song open and I stopped dead in my track to listen to the whole song and I have been a fan of The Mars Volta since then.
I remember hearing this for the first time at the age of 15 and couldn't get it out of my head. Such a great song and brings back so many memories of being a teenager.
Just rediscovered this and forgot how incredible this song was! What a vibe, what a song, what a voice. Unreal. Super underrated band. This whole record is killer.
I love their "commercially-conscious" and radio-friendly composition to this song! It lets me breathe in between listening to their more ferocious, break-neck tempo tunes they're well-known for! LOL
+Christopher Johnson This happened to me with a song from Mama Ladilla (a spanish group) even i was dreaing of a big running event and the soundtrack of the course was their song, clearly understandable.
Remember this from early college days. Brilliant, just brilliant. Reading their history on Wikipedia is like reading some sort of crazed adventure novel. What a time these people had.
I swear... No matter when n where i hear this it makes my entire shiver... The emotions the struggle the sadness the anger the fire..m i feel it all... Just makes me break down internally allowing me to appreciate the light n beauty
Discovered the band way too late, absolutely love them. I’m a younger audience, in middle school. Can’t get them out of my head, downloaded the albums onto my phone.
When I listen to - and especially when I saw them perform - I felt like I'm hearing swirling bits of almost every band I love mixed together - I hear Led Zeppelin, Santana, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, and many more, their influences are all over the place and it's awesome
The buddy who showed me this song and band died of suicide a few months ago, love you Tanner. Rest easy buddy ❤️. Sometimes I guess I just miss my friend (s) ...
14 años me demore en poder llegar por casualidad a este tema que solo lo pude escuchar una vez ... Y me encantó . Pero no recordé nada del nombre de la banda... Fue un milagro aunque tardo
remember the first time I heard these guys. will forever be one of my favorite bands. reminds me of getting high in high school with my lady and friends and just enjoying each others company. nothing will ever be like that again.
The song that was short and mainstream enough to make it into Billboard, made me download it, made me search the album, which turns out to be the greatest human art in history
vivid memories of when they first got big air play with at the drive in. one armed scissor can still take me back and feel exactly like I did then (I'm old guys) and we also used it to pump ourselves up to go on convoys in Iraq 04 to 05. good stuff
Haven’t heard this song since the year it came out then all of a sudden I start thinking about pieces and fragments of the music video and how I remember liking the song. Going on a wild goose chase trying to find the song browsing though all the music videos of another artist because I thought it was their music video. Almost about to give up my search when I read the statement “from the vault” and I’m like God damn it!! It’s The Mars Volta! Glad I found it so I can go about my day now lol. Love this song, and the music video is awesome
I definitely remember sleeping on this band but liking this song as a guilty pleasure since I was more of harder rock listener at that time. I think I also just had something against higher register singers because of all the "whiny sounding" postpop bands that i also didnt vibe with. Well now that I've grown up a little more and I don't have anything against great music or musicians that I discriminated against in my former ignorance. So when I got the chance to see them live at Rockville in Daytona this past April I was immediately impressed and thankful that they didn't slip through my fingers forever. I was there for tool and the Deftones and anything else was a bonus but the Mars Volta was an experience that I'll never forget. Oh yeah, Coheed and Cambria was great too and I had similar feelings when I was younger and a similar change of heart.
I have a vivid memory of sitting in an Irish pub in Hachioji in Tokyo in 2006 and seeing this come up on the television in there. Funny how these things pull memories back. The smell of the beer, the vague warmth of its creeping intoxication, and the pungent garlic and truffle blanketing the otherwise earthy smell of the potatoes on my plate. Some creeping anxiety about things back home in Australia. Thinking how funny it was that a relatively obscure favourite from my then shiny new mp3 player had found its way onto a television screen in suburban Tokyo.
I love this group but I understand the sense of Foreboding they have in their music. It also doesn’t help knowing that they tapped into some dark forces to make The Bedlam in Goliath. Also not to mention how it’s as if they place you under a spell when you listen to them. They are the musical equivalent to the Twilight Zone.
Remembered this song a few days ago. Not only did I love it, but my 90 (at the time) year old mother heard this in the car and she liked it too. This is the first time I saw the video, and yes, almost literally a trip. Wouldn't recommend it for anyone with a seizure disorder triggered by flashing lights.
heres my expirience tripped out on TMV, in the deloused intro son et lumiere i started tapping with the rhythm and tapped through the whole intro, song changed to inertiatic esp and i lost the rhythm, couldnt catch it for life and cedric started singing now im lost.. ive shit my pants and stoped, it was too powerul at that time, couldnt handle it, crazy good band, that was in 2009 and still im listening to them, love them so much, favorite band hands down
Brings me back memories, of getting seduced by a gothic girl with this song. She is the one who introduced this song to me. Damn girl left a dark mark on me, with those dark sharp eyes.
Sounds like the type of shit my parents where doing when they listened to music like this. Their taste has certainly rubbed off on me, but not their life styles.
Literally just popped in my head.. I couldn’t even remember the lyrics.. I was just like “the widow” youtube it.. god how I missed this song 😍😍😍 can’t believe I ever forgot it exsisted 😭😭 2018!!
Sometimes when inbetween sleep and awake I hear amazing music in my head... this time the vocals reminded me of a song I have´nt heard in a long time (this song) took me a while to figure out what song it was. I knew I had it in my playlist. So here I am 10to4 in the AM.
I remember this was the first song I heard by these guys, and I heard it on the radio; the disc jockey had said this was on their new album, "Frances the Mute", so for some reason I thought they were a French band, mainly because of the name & this sounded unlike anything else that was playing on American radio at the time. then, a couple months later, I had a friend who had their first album and I listened to the whole thing front to back, multiple times. since that day, I've learned that they're not French (lol) and they instantly became one of my favorite bands. and they still are to this day. it's crazy there was a time that this stuff was played on the radio.
Two years ago I had a premonition about someone's death in my dream. And this song was playing in the background of my dream. That kid died not even 6 months later. I told him about the dream too.
2021, still rocking n love mars volta, seen em in 2005 at the Tabernacle in Atlanta GA, Awsome...then a few years later in Asheville NC, and got and still have a drum stick from that show....
The Mars Volta cannot break up. They are the best band in the last 30 years and true artists. Francis the Mute and especially DELOUSED IN THE COMATORIUM translates perfectly into classical symphony very easily if you had an orchestra. The surrealistic lyrics, it is perfect music and everything that rock music should be. Like Pink Floyd but evolved and more sophisticated. Its sad they dont get the credit for everything they have done.
I went to Highschool with them. They were in my art class as seniors and I was a freshman. First time I heard them at battle of the bands on our football field. I knew they would be world famous from 1 minute in!
That's dope as hell!!
Were they At The Drive-In at the time?
So jealous - shoulda made sure you helped or had all those babies
Oh wow
dude, that is freaking awesome-sauce
It's been 11 years, and this song randomly popped into my head.
Mine too!
Bro you have no clue! I've had the instrumental in my head but could never remember the name of this song!!! It popped on my Spotify and when it started playing it came right to my head that this was the song!! Thank you Spotify and thank you Mars Volta🤤🤤🍻🍻
Still rocking this amazing song
N I hear him every night..
Same
2020 and I'm still smitten with this sound and this song.
Have you heard Antemasque?
It's actually my favorite of Cedrics vocals
I find it difficult to reconnect with it because I listened to it every day straight for a few months since I only had a discman. It's just burnt into my brain.
Liar. Profound love develops eventually you know. 🔍
🤘
I was lying on a stretcher with a blood vessel in my neck severed, I had already lost about a litter of blood or so and the doctors didn't know if they were going to be able to stitch it or close it somehow, so I started singing this song to myself. It was an experience that I will never forget and the fact that The Mars Volta came to me at that moment where I didn't know if I was gonna live or die is one thing that truly makes me appreciate how this band has impacted my life. Omar, Cedric and everyone involved, you are true artists, whatever the hell that means.
So happy to see that you made it through!
Omg I love how you tell your experience
You are on point... what a beautiful sentiment
I'm happy to know you're still alive and breathing brother 🙏🏼
Glad you recovered but it’s cool that you were happy to sing this on way out if it had of been that.
Frances The Mute & De-Loused In The Comatorium are masterpieces.
Indeed. Too bad they couldn't keep the band going, but we're fortunate to have these two.
All but noctourniquet are masterpieces.
Don't lose hope, I've seen reports of an anticipated reunion!
Amputechture had its moments, but anything after that album is completely skippable, imo.
@@SatoshiKong I love bedlam in goliath. But I can see why people don't like octahedron and noctourniquet.
This is probably one of the most glorious slow rock songs of all time
Yes sir! Would love to see a Michael Mann move start with this. Or a Bond movie.
For those that don't know, the trumpet in this song is performed by Flea from the RHCP.
Thank you so much for that fun fact
GKasper link?
I don't have a "link" to the information, but if you own the Francis The Mute CD the information is right there in the liner notes:
"Joining the band for selected moments are:
- Flea (trumpet and trumpet solos on The Window and Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore)"
also:
"- John Frusciante (first 2 guitar solos on L'via)"
Very cool
There's no trumpet solo. There's trumpet accompaniment/harmonies.
Cedric's voice is so amazing. His range, the power, the raw emotion. It's perfect for the story.
The Mars Volta, pure classic! Music like this comes only once in a lifetime. The best way I can describe them; it is like finding wheat in a sea of chaff.
Serverus That ain’t no shit. This was the first tune I heard from them back in 2005. It was like a breath of fresh air that I hadn’t had in a very long time. With the climate of the music industry these days, fresh air doesn’t come along very often.
One of the last bands I caught on MTV. "Who the hell is this?!" Doesn't happen very often with me.
To the guys that wrote this and the man that sings this. THANK YOU. A freakin masterpiece. As a musician I would die happy having created something like this.
Ray Kau think it’s the same dude
Cedric Bixler Zavala
I remember seeing this music video on MTV when they were actually music television. I was a kid but the singer's amazing voice and the trippy video always stuck with me. Now i understand it more and wow im glad this song stayed in my head for all these years. MTV, go back to playing this great music damn it!
ITSMrBubbles1nOnly same man. One of my favorite bands now
ITSMrBubbles1nOnly Same over here...¡! ...n went 2 c em later that year n obviously became my favorite band...! ❤💋
It's like reading my own thoughts seeing your comment....
2021... I remember listening to this song as a sad lonely goth kid. Now I'm a sad lonely average adult and this song still is absolutely memorizing. 🖤🔥🖤
Haha same
Same
Same x4
Same
Ok; GOTH KID Better than a Emo Kid 🧓🏻 because Emo Kids gets a Normal Life. 🤘🏻😇
this song is absolutely beautiful
this gives me chills I havent listen to this in sooo long...
Chad Ockstadt it's not that good
Got chills during the guitar solo.
@@stephenbutler1623 Yes, it is...
On of the most underrated bands in the world.
Real G’s know what’s up!
real
@@moldybongrips they suck live tho
@@eclipse3580 Saw them live last year. They were absolutely amazing.
I was volunteering for an environmental agency going back 8 - 9 years now and some hippy dude played this in our van heading to a job. Such an eye opener to this band.
Never heard of this band until I Shazamed it while Grocery shopping at a Winn Dixie in New Orleans.
Ok, that’s wild that Winn Dixie is blasting TMV while you’re like, bagging your produce lol.
For your Karaoke:
He's got fasting black lungs
Made of clove-splintered shards
They're the kind that will talk
Through a wheezing of coughs
And I hear him every night
In every pore
And every time he just makes me warm
Freeze without an answer
Free from all the shame
Must I hide
'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone
Look at how they flock to him
From an isle of open sores
He knows that the taste is such
Is such to die for
And I hear him every night
On every street
The scales that do slither
Deliver me from...
Freeze without an answer
Free from all the shame
Then I'll hide
'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone
Oh Lord
Said I'm, said I'm, said I'm,
Said I'm bloodshot for sure
Pale runs the ghost
Swollen on the shore
Every night
In every pore
The scales that do slither
Deliver me from...
Freeze without an answer
Free from all the shame
Then I'll hide
'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone
Freeze without an answer
Free from all the shame
Let me die
'Cause I'll never, never sleep alone
Like if you use it!

Bless the heart of anybody who tries to karaoke this song lmfao
Recuerdo haber visto este video en MTV y despues nunca mas volvi a escuchar esta cancion. Finalmente lo encontre y solo recordaba la melodia
I remember watching MTV before school and I heard this song open and I stopped dead in my track to listen to the whole song and I have been a fan of The Mars Volta since then.
Seen the Mars Volta open up for System of a Down. I can honestly say this was this greatest concert I've seen...#childhood
Wow that's awesome
Man this brings back nostalgia of high school in 2005 . Love Mars volta
I remember hearing this for the first time at the age of 15 and couldn't get it out of my head. Such a great song and brings back so many memories of being a teenager.
Man, the 2000's was the last decade in which rock ruled supreme.
Just rediscovered this and forgot how incredible this song was! What a vibe, what a song, what a voice. Unreal. Super underrated band. This whole record is killer.
Amazing, breathtaking.
This band deserves heaven, they are so underrated.
totally agree
One of the most underrated bands of all time.. Their sound is so unique and ls something out of this world..
I love their "commercially-conscious" and radio-friendly composition to this song! It lets me breathe in between listening to their more ferocious, break-neck tempo tunes they're well-known for! LOL
I just woke up at 5 in the morning with this song in my head after not hearing it for like 7 years. I'm gonna have to cover this now..
Omg me too.
same here
Dammit man!
+Mark Adkisson if you guys need help let me know what i can play
+Christopher Johnson This happened to me with a song from Mama Ladilla (a spanish group) even i was dreaing of a big running event and the soundtrack of the course was their song, clearly understandable.
I remember being a kid and I fell asleep with my TV on...and I woke up to the end of this video ..scared the crap out of me
A drunk guy in Seattle suggested this band to me .. Thank you drunk guy :)
The band, the voice, the solo, the video… 👏👏👏👏👏👏 …just in awe of this piece ❤️
I just discovered this band and now I'm addicted to this masterpiece
Man ...the lyrical content is from out of this world .
this song is a masterpiece ..
They straight balled on all of us with this. Masterpiece.
Amazing song.
You're right.
Remember this from early college days.
Brilliant, just brilliant.
Reading their history on Wikipedia is like reading some sort of crazed adventure novel. What a time these people had.
I swear... No matter when n where i hear this it makes my entire shiver... The emotions the struggle the sadness the anger the fire..m i feel it all... Just makes me break down internally allowing me to appreciate the light n beauty
Discovered the band way too late, absolutely love them. I’m a younger audience, in middle school. Can’t get them out of my head, downloaded the albums onto my phone.
I remember when this album came out.. I forgot about it for a while until recently, this and their debut are incredible
be open to music now. When this song came out I was a little older than your age and didn’t appreciate it
im a baby
You're definitely someone who knows good music.
It's never too late
When I listen to - and especially when I saw them perform - I felt like I'm hearing swirling bits of almost every band I love mixed together - I hear Led Zeppelin, Santana, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, and many more, their influences are all over the place and it's awesome
The buddy who showed me this song and band died of suicide a few months ago, love you Tanner. Rest easy buddy ❤️. Sometimes I guess I just miss my friend (s) ...
I’m sorry buddy
there's something very special about this song
It's called talent.
Lol, you silly guys! My son got me into this band years ago and im 62 and still love them! Haha!
Seen them open up for SOAD probably over 18 years ago in Cincinnati. Was a badass concert
I’m so happy i got the chance to see them live. It’s an spiritual experience. Almost 10 years
Will always love this song. Nobody sounds anything like them
this is a badass video in so many ways... outstanding vocals.... amazing guitar, etc.
Totally forgot how much I absolutely adore this song!
I remember the day I heard this song. It was watching MTV in the morning before school and it blew me away
If Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd had a drug fueled half Mexican baby and left it in el paso, that is this!
will t BEST DESCRIPTION EVER!!
Steven Leach
+will t ... Well done, 'will t.' I also hear Jack White. Today is the first day I am hearing this music, this man's voice. Oh, holy day.
+will t you are fucked in the head, thats like saying protest the hero has roots from lamb of god
+Hingle McCringleberry Your name is dope. It made me laugh bro. "construction noise."
This song is genius. Period.
14 años me demore en poder llegar por casualidad a este tema que solo lo pude escuchar una vez ... Y me encantó .
Pero no recordé nada del nombre de la banda... Fue un milagro aunque tardo
This song is actually perfect. Wow!
That was the first song I've heard by these guys. Weeping...
I've been missing out, I believe. Gottat listed to more to be sure. So far, very nice!
Saw them open for System of a Down over 20 years ago. Just beautiful.
I’ve been looking for this song/video for years!!!
And now you have found it
Another great song by The Mars Volta! They made some great music to bad they are no longer together
Guys, you're flabbergasted. You move the music forward, not repeat what you've already done. Love you.
remember the first time I heard these guys. will forever be one of my favorite bands. reminds me of getting high in high school with my lady and friends and just enjoying each others company. nothing will ever be like that again.
Exactly the same for me. This band will always have a special place in my heart.
One of the strangest music videos of all time. And one of the best songs of all time as well. :)
watch 40 minutes/ 20 years
Joseph Chamberlain Oh. I know that song, but I didn't know it had a music video. Will do. ;)
Dear diary, Dec, 2021, I am 33 years into life, and this song is just as mesmerizing as it was back around 03' or 04' when I first herd it.
This definitely deserves an HD remaster
The song that was short and mainstream enough to make it into Billboard, made me download it, made me search the album, which turns out to be the greatest human art in history
This band/song was my absolute favorite in my late teens. I got through so much listening to TMV. It's hard to believe that was 13 years ago
vivid memories of when they first got big air play with at the drive in. one armed scissor can still take me back and feel exactly like I did then (I'm old guys) and we also used it to pump ourselves up to go on convoys in Iraq 04 to 05. good stuff
If that makes you old then that means I'm old....and I'm not old, dammit....😉

i love the mars volta. cedric is really talented. omar is a perfectionist. come back guys!!!
Hoy después de 14 años la he vuelto a escuchar en vivo y sigo sintiendo la misma emoción... 🥺
This album scares the shit out of me. I can't listen to the whole thing by myself. One of my all time favorites
Lol wtf then don't watch the news please....your faint lil heart couldn't take the horror out here
That video scared the living crap out of me when I first saw it, just one question, what were they eating?
I love this group but I understand the sense of Foreboding they have in their music. It also doesn’t help knowing that they tapped into some dark forces to make The Bedlam in Goliath. Also not to mention how it’s as if they place you under a spell when you listen to them. They are the musical equivalent to the Twilight Zone.
Put the soy down ma’am.
In my opinion in praise of learning by Henry cow is far scary but I can get where your coming from
Cara, que música espetacular.
Gosto demais de Mars Volta!
in tears right now listening to this and emembering the good ol mtv days
My fav song from you guys, by far.

here in 2021 after Mars Volta announces a new Album :) Greetings from Portugal! Paredes de Coura 2008
Every so often a song comes along that haunts your soul forever. This is one of those songs.
This song is so damn good for reasons I can't explain and to this day gives me chills.
10 years later, this is still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Man this brings me back to being a bad teenager doing drugs and skipping school.
wow....same!
Brings me back memories, of getting seduced by a gothic girl with this song. She is the one who introduced this song to me. Damn girl left a dark mark on me, with those dark sharp eyes.
Sounds like the type of shit my parents where doing when they listened to music like this.
Their taste has certainly rubbed off on me, but not their life styles.
Hahaha yup
Yup😏
One of the most beautiful songs and videos...
Saw these guys perform in San Diego with System of a Down. Best show I’ve ever been to.
Take me back to this time 😭😭
Literally just popped in my head.. I couldn’t even remember the lyrics.. I was just like “the widow” youtube it.. god how I missed this song 😍😍😍 can’t believe I ever forgot it exsisted 😭😭 2018!!
No me canso de esta canción. Me eriza la piel.
Sometimes when inbetween sleep and awake I hear amazing music in my head... this time the vocals reminded me of a song I have´nt heard in a long time (this song) took me a while to figure out what song it was. I knew I had it in my playlist. So here I am 10to4 in the AM.
I really miss these guys. Traveled different countries to see them as much as I could. Have some really great memories. I am grateful for that ❤✌
I remember this was the first song I heard by these guys, and I heard it on the radio; the disc jockey had said this was on their new album, "Frances the Mute", so for some reason I thought they were a French band, mainly because of the name & this sounded unlike anything else that was playing on American radio at the time.
then, a couple months later, I had a friend who had their first album and I listened to the whole thing front to back, multiple times. since that day, I've learned that they're not French (lol) and they instantly became one of my favorite bands. and they still are to this day.
it's crazy there was a time that this stuff was played on the radio.
Two years ago I had a premonition about someone's death in my dream. And this song was playing in the background of my dream. That kid died not even 6 months later. I told him about the dream too.
Damn.
I know things too.

This album is magic to me. Magic and muse I LOVE YOU..YOU ARE LOVE
2021, still rocking n love mars volta, seen em in 2005 at the Tabernacle in Atlanta GA, Awsome...then a few years later in Asheville NC, and got and still have a drum stick from that show....
This music videos told real stories...truly a lost art
Such a wonderful hypnotizing song!
The Mars Volta cannot break up. They are the best band in the last 30 years and true artists. Francis the Mute and especially DELOUSED IN THE COMATORIUM translates perfectly into classical symphony very easily if you had an orchestra. The surrealistic lyrics, it is perfect music and everything that rock music should be. Like Pink Floyd but evolved and more sophisticated. Its sad they dont get the credit for everything they have done.
Remember when L A was cool enough to have a radio station called Indy 1031 that played this song a whole fucking lot
Nate Walker Mee too
