MARS VOLTA- De-Loused in the Comatorium
What happened to At The Drive in, that upstart dynamo that promised to take the
mainstream by storm? Mars Volta, for one thing, and man does it sound good to
us. We hear smoking and kicking emo-style rock with somewhat psychedelic, even
almost prog-rock flourishes. It's like if Sunny Day Real Estate and Tool met
up on an early Genesis fan website and got together to rock out like Led
Zeppelin. Ridiculous? Not even. At a time when some millionaire rockers hype
their supposed angry past and try to reinvent themselves as present day
trailblazers, some fresh faces come out with something so wholly right-on that
it blows all the tired old shit away, leaving only dying ashes and stunned
geezers behind. Oh yes, this will be the soundtrack for many, many rock fans
this summer, eager for a little something REAL. And yeah man, they've still
got the hair.
