At the Drive-In - "Catacombs"

[blinkgurl2]

Reunited and it feels so good!

[MsInsaneJoker]

Nice

[ScalpelsGlazeUntamed]

This ScalpelsGlazeUntamed won't feel romantic :)

[SONICgokuverine]

I get goosebumps every time I hear this song.

[danvanism]

best song on the album

[MrTomservo85]

I am pissed off that the cd I bought didn't include this song. But then I think, it was the year 2000... America wasn't ready for this shit.

So ahead of their time.

[MorkaGraven]

It wasn't ahead of it's time.

[MrTomservo85]

@MorkaGraven Oh, okay, sorry.

[varistof]

eso no lo sabia @Mrdeftoness ahora me gustara mucho mas este grupo aparte de que tocan muy bien

[varistof]

que buena rola!!! arriba esta musica!!!!

[Mrdeftoness1]

@varistof el cantante es chicano =0

[RudraNightmare]

Great song. And lyrics too. That's the aspect of at the drive in songs I like the most. Why ? Because I learned so many words listening to them.There probably is an accurate meaning behind each song...but I rather not know. It's so much better for me this way. Because everytime I come up with a different interpretation. Does anyone share this point of view ?

[198d891]

great ending to a great album. i wouldnt expect anything less

[rassault]

This is every bit as groovy as Nirvana and brutal as Slayer and progressive as Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd.

[gayasthedayislong]

@rassault yeah but it mostly just sounds like At the drive-in

[pashedmotatos]

@rassault  nice analogy

[scurlcube]

i dont belive in music genres... i just believe in the music

[j0bzz]

@scurlcube good for you?

[scurlcube]

@j0bzz im gay

[kelketamine]

To clear up the listing of this track on which albums:

Originally it was only on the European/Australian release

Then the album was re-released in NA and included Catacombs, so now you can get it on the album in the NA version.

But anyways: These guys are fucking awesome, so much energy/emotion resonates from all their tunes

[jamjoe6314]

I cant even listen to the mars volta anymore...once i got atdi in my ears, i just shake my head whenever i hear a volta song :-/ it just doesnt compare

[danilovejb]

@jamjoe6314 i love both bands, it would be hard for me to pick one or the other, i hear thats things have been getting better w/ the guys in sparta, and possible talks about doing a show here and there, but that was a few months ago, things have been dead, news wise =(

[scagbert]

atdi would explode any genre you try and put them in into a thousand pieces

[yoshy321]

Just beautiful.

[Algydyce]

I'm really not trying to be a wanker or anything, but the conversation was about labels. Between you and me it also irritates me when people put tags on things for clearer comprehension... but then I'm an opinionated asshole and lately I've been trying to relax and just accept that the one thing that makes all of us human is that we are all shit and given that I have no real right to rage too hard as I'm just as shit as everyone else.

Finally universal equality and fraternity has been realised

[uzirider751]

GADammmmmm

[SimplyShadow]

fuck that.

[ReggaeMusic3]

It is amazing how much cedric has improved vocally and musically. Don't get me wrong ATDI is the shiznit. But because I am a musician I seem to appreciate the amazing art TMV is putting out. The evolution of the lennon and mccartney (ced n omar) of our generation has been amazing to experience. True artist!! Yes, they are the new beatles, musically, in my opinion with the totally different stylee from anything anyone has put out.

[Algydyce]

@ReggaeMusic3 Dunno about the Beatles being totally different from anything else (at least if that's what you're implying by the comparison), there were many bands doing what the Beatles did long before they popularised it.

Don't get me wrong I love ATDI and the Beatles, but you can't look at music in a linear fashion, it's in a state of flux, renewal and collaboration.

[deathflys44]

@Algydyce nicely said

[AwayinSpace]

@Algydyce I'd say that music is much more than that, music can be absolutely anything at all. I don't know why people put labels on it.

[Algydyce]

@AwayinSpace People put labels on things because there are two sides of the brain, if we didn't have at least one part of it delineating and categorising our experiences with labels then we'd be unable to function at any level. Yes labels are arbitrary, as Nietzsche points out, the term leaf is used as a referent for a whole host of different objects and many bear little similarity to each other. But without labels/referents we'd be fucked.

[AwayinSpace]

@Algydyce I realise we need labels, but labels could include things like band names, not just genres. A name is a label.

[kenaeda65]

This and In casino out got me through

[BRDfrmthafiveotree]

@kenaeda65 good taste

[Brollyhero99TOP10]

This band is amazing!!!

[BearsStillRule]

if this album IS NOT part of your collection, you probably shouldn't even be listening to music.

[Stalfos212]

@BearsStillRule well it WOULD be part of my collection if I could actually find it lol

[DiXnItXDeMxDeRo]

chingon se queda corto...

[chamaikhan]

@DiXnItXDeMxDeRo no hay suficientes no mames para describir su chingonería.

[Epicfailmusic]

the mp3 i have of this song is different...Like a different recording.Its a rawer recording without all the effects and it ripped from vinyl.

I never knew there were two versions.

[lloydram]

@Epicfailmusic upload it and post it as a responce? ;)

[hahntheorc666]

damn that ending was so trippy!

fuckin great band though.

[cmrtnxca]

the emotion and intensity that goes into this one is just amazing. cedric rocks at screaming/yelling.

[conversescooby]

The live Version is Way better still à Great Song though
