The mars volta - Prev unreleased: Eunuch Provocateur

[takezow]

in which album/ep can i find this version? not the one on the tremulant ep and on a missing chromosome.

I hear Concertina has a remasterd version too

[ElMyr23]

Man, I like the Tremulant version so much more than this one. I mean, the sound quality is better on this one but I liked the tone of the other one. I wish they would have recorded the Tremulant EP on this equipment, or something.

[theused4lifebaby]

all I can say is

Fuck yeah.

[Maria20sagittarius]

#themarsvolta2011

[198d891]

this is a much better version than the one in Tremulant EP

[jbilunes]

this isnt the full version, the one i have once it slows down at the end it makes these weird sounds which if playing backwards its the itcy bitcy spider song with a demonic twist

[dfesta]

jon theodore is fucking going off here. soooo much energy.

[nasalscarecrow]

Great vocals.

[Saetan0914]

This song loses a lot without the keys. The keys are a major factor in why I like thee original better than this version. Well, that and I think the vocals are far superior in thee other version.

[MrBootsElectric]

this version is soooooo much more orgasmic than the tremulant ep version

[12ozshark]

@MrBootsElectric but its pretty much cuts out one of the greatest riffs of all time - the original intro riff

[Lateralus63]

The "Al-Sirat" is the arabic phrase for the bridge to heaven.

So the first line of the song is :

The bridge to heaven hides behind a vault of castrated boys.

Their lyrics are so abstract. I LOVE it.

[ElectronsToWaves]

I want to film a Car Chase to this song.

[thefreehuey]

Wasn't there a time when Ikey left TMV for a bit? I don't hear Ikey's keys in here, so I guess this was the time before he returned. TMV needs Ikey.

[joinapak]

@thefreehuey unfortunately you barely ever hear ikey in alot of these songs...

[exit747steve1]

@thefreehuey theres the mars volta(ced and omar and whoever they choose to collaborate with), and theres the mars volta group(ikey,etc, and so forth...)grew up n ep w ced, omar,paul,geremy ward. my 1st garage band was w geremy. omar and i played our 1st show together in a backyard n E.P. what a freaking genius he was to become!!!

[lapoiarecords]

Me gusta más la original.

[Compressionistist]

2:19 - That's the background vocals from Day of the Baphomets!

[Lachy101]

ye cedric did those vocals for this song first YO

[TehMadCow]

holy shit this version is awesome they were hella in their prime back then

[PornoPlaylist]

i really like these pictures. I think it's the black on black (hair and jackets). I also prefer cedric's long hair as opposed to what it is now.

[0008brown8000]

I enjoy this version..a,lot.

[tonyAJ420]

Sick drum solo

[mildew2yahoo]

they were so cool back then!

[HaroldFeldberg]

the demos I've got are

Eunuch Provocateur

Concertina

Son Et Lumiere + Inertiatic ESP

Roulette Dares (The Haunt Of)

Drunkship Of Lanterns

Eriatarka

Cicatriz ESP

Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt

i think that's it, but I want all of their demos

[macwild1234]

Where did you get them?

[VioletChildBand]

omg i love this version so much, i love how the lyrics sound in this version rather than the one on tremulant. i wish i could get this on my iPod

[TheCruddyBug]

Oh man they use the same riff, about, in Cicatriz. Awesome!

[NapiCAN]

I have the link from the commatorium where to download this song and the other Summer Session songs. Just email me.

[zwirbelwirbel]

[skylightanubis]

How? I'd like the summer session songs as well :)

[NapiCAN]

Heh, I guess I meant commenting/messaging on YouTube as well XD

But yeah, lol, anyway, I'll send you a message on here

[macwild1234]

Can you e-mail it to me too?

[TSMAPgtar56]

hey i dont mean to get on your nerves but could you send it to me haha

[NapiCAN]

It ain't no thing, chicken wing.

[AbeoLyve]

It starts at about 8:20. I never noticed it before, probably because it seems to be more in the foreground.

[macwild1234]

Yeah they do lol

[SyriusFerreal]

lol, they used the same background chant at 2:19 as is in day of the baphomets.

[nrique84]

@SyriusFerreal yeah, i was thinking about the same thing, but couldn't remember which song was. haha

[hor789]

the intro always reminds me achilles last stand

[0008brown8000]

Led Zepp and TMV are both great bands after all.

[ododbobo]

better than tremulant

[DeLoused777]

sounds better than tremulant...

[silentviolence58]

i agree.

[Evtingperfect]

those guy are great !

[polepole10000]

Oh my g** even their demo versions are amazing

[h1soka]

this is not a demo, it is mastered

[silentviolence58]

I'll master yer face

[h1soka]

No.

[inquisitiedspaniard7]

This is a good version, but the energy of tremulant's version can't be beaten. Although Jon Theodore's solo is very nice.

[Frostbite1231]

Agreed....I have never heard an album with as much intensity as Tremulant....I don't know if I ever will within my lifetime

[alra1975]

the al sirat hides behind a wardrobe of eunuchs

seconds collide till the padisha scandal

the cauldrons have eyes by way of racket and vice

a brothel's bedpan filled with demimonde lice

dethroned by the comatorium

de-loused in the comatorium

[0008brown8000]

One of my favorite songs.

<3

[lmoore12346]

this is one of the best by them

[KingOfNasty]

where the hell can i download this version?!?!?!?

[GuillotineCancer]

The Comatorium. They have a whole section devoted to sharing the music, including the demos.

[vicarious709]

do u still want do dl it???

[ReeDParkeR12345]

i like it

[gutsofmuts]

this and the other version of concertina both sound way than the e.p. version i think. you can actually hear what cedric is saying and the instrumentation is more raw but still clear somehow.

[santeria248]

Much prefer this version. Cedric's voice is awesome!

[willwoodward99]

yeah in the studio with auto tune hes great

[oldskoolchomp]

@ 5:33, is that a pair of womens panties on the floor?? or a sock maybe?

[ab07538]

a tie

[CutTheTension3]

I love the guitar in the intro.

[pinkfloyd105]

yeah I live this version better live actually lol. Something seems like its missing in this version. Its still kick ass however.

[thyanussmells]

veryy nice version, I prefer this one, love its raw sound.

[spitfireatme]

summer demo session version

[oldskoolchomp]

i liked the original version... it was a little more raw and unpolished... although this version is growing on me rather fast

[dlix13felix]

this is amazing. i like it way better then the EP version. and theodore has a sickass solo. This is my new favorite song from them lol

[hypoclit]

this is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pangtjoff]

Great version with the solo in the beginning... But i miss the EP versions ending.

[Realzi]

Holy shit !!  this is rAre

[frankcarter2]

this song is on the tremulant ep i think

[ab07538]

yes, indeed is it there. But

this is a different version they recorded after "tremulant" release, and they use to play it this way live

[NapiCAN]

Whoooooooaaaaaaaa, where did you find this?
