I was just thinking the same thing!! RHCP are cool, but first of all they are bad live and second many of their songs sound the same... TMV are so special and original... And they are amazing live!!
Don't make bitter people that enjoy this, maybe you don't understand the music and it is comprehensible, but to write that they are outside of tone without to know on the microtones and to judge the music because the singer is horrible is really for sillys.
I can't believe the brainless trash commenting on how Floyd and Zeppelin are overrated. TMV is TOTALLY OVERRATED, these hacks don't hold a candle to Zep or Floyd. The problem is that there really aren't any good bands these days, so idiots settle for a sub-par piece of shit like TMV. Cedric sounds like a screaming woman, he's totally annoying, he sucks. Omar borrows most of his style and licks from Frank Zappa. TMV is nothing more than a sloppy ripoff of past artists.
just becasue you like those old bands and think the mars volta is overrated, dosent mean you have to spill your warped garbage thoughts onto a comment of a video of the band you say is so overrated. if you think they are so annoying and affected, why don't you just keep listening to your precious frank zappa, and pink floyd albums, while we go and see the mars volta ON TOUR. led zepp, and pink floyd are boring.

Sorry but he's right, these guys aren't original and they aren't good, they don't play on key, the singer is horrible and the music is a bad rehashing of what has been already done, with NO ORIGINALITY but a lot of BS. There's a lot of good modern music out today but these guys aren't it.

A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand

how about cedoric and omar are awesome no matter what. when it cmes down to at the drive in vs the mars volta i still go with tmv but its close. the only thing i know for sure is that sparta can't compete with either.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ATDI needs to come back, I personally think if they stuck it out they could've influenced so many people into changing the way everyone looked at the world and mainstream music. The Mars Volta is nothing compared to At the Drive-In.
I would beg to differ. The Mars Volta are alot more creative, innovative, and experimental then ATDI. ATDI sounds pretty standard, as Alternative bands go.
i totally agree with cfynes. the rest of the guys wanted to sound like weezer, but omar and ced wanted to move on and evolve. at the drive-in was amazing for their time, but the mars volta is unique.
plus, at the drive-in's music was based on a lot of the things they went through as teenagers. it was time for them to grow up.
that was a good show..but goddamn the sound there was horrible..the floor had seating which really sucked..the security were assholes..and overall it was such a horrible place to play..horrible acoustics..it reminded me of seeing a show in an old highschool gym..but there performance was great as always
you all stupid non-music literatti bumfucks!;when,in the history of recorded music should fans argue about a bands' looks over a bands' musicianship?,stop talkin' shit 'bout who's lookin' hot and who's not,you freakin' Paris Hilton fans,this is a fuckin' band,not you favorite sitcom!
You said it Merubin, I quote you on that one. The Mars Volta are fucking genuin. There's been noone like them, and there's never been anyone who's been able to cover their songs with a good result.
People should just shut the fuck up and listen to the music. Didn't your mothers ever tell you the two ears and one mouth-phrase?
And Haveyoumetferris, don't to try to seem so fucking educated. It's "troglodytic" you fucking biggot.
I disagree with you when you said there's never been anyone who's been able to cover their songs with a good result. There's a local band in my area called Silian Rail who covers TMV songs every now and then and they do an amazing job.
are you serious? youre a fuckin idiot. mars volta has so much more shear musical talent then sparta. maybe if your talking more mainstream friendley cleche rock songs than ya, go to sparta
I'm sorry, but Cedric looks positevely terrible here. I liked the Electric Ballroom Cedric better, when he was shaved, his hair was sexy, and his outfit was sexy too.
incredible vocal range. while he's not singing every note perfectly, he does in fact have the range of a 12-year-old boy with one testical removed, and that impresses me.
man i dont get it .. led zeppelin .. gay!!! .. if led zep did not exit i dont think there would be a band named mars volta .. same statement is true about pink floyd
Man, the volta own, so do pink floyd, and so do zeppelin. The dancing is great pink floyd is not stale, led zeppelin is far from gay, and if you think that led zeppelin is over-rated than you should watch the live dazed and confused from the song remains the same tour. :)
overrated and stale? I don't mean to be one of those "overly protective of their favourite band" types, but go get Pulse Live on DVD, turn the Amp up, and come back call them "stale". Floyd is timeless. And Pulse is the most incredible live concert ever made, and I'm not even going to talk about the aesthetics and effects, because you just have to see it for yourself to believe it.
pulse is probably the WORST example of floyd ever, with that awful 90's sound and that gay bass player who never got the essence of real pink floyd by slapping the bass and that crap, floyd is minimalistic prog rock... and if you want serious floyd shit go get live in pompeii... everything after animals is a mediocre simplistic shit, even the wall and final cut
I REALLY love old Floyd, especially Animals(one of the top concept albums of all time), and I love new floyd as well(although the Final Cut was terrible)
Roger waters was the emotional, writing and spiritual power behind Floyd, so yes after he left, Floyd was missing those elements, but they were still great without waters and some of my favourite songs come right off Division Bell and Momentary Lapse of Reason
PULSE is the best live concert ever. I was sold on that by watching the laser show alone!
And what do you have against the slap bass? Are you curcifying them for adding some variation to a Live show?
Besides, I've FORCED friends watch a few songs from Pulse, only to have them go out and buy the DVD even though they weren't floyd fans.
Floyd is Classic Prog Rock at its finest, yes you won't hear Dream Theater/Meshuggah/Mars Volta/Crimson King style Prog rock but they are in no way minimalistic
yea this is good but i saw them in toronto with RHCP and the whole time cedric didnt even bother to come out and sing and i had to listen to them playing a pink floyd song for one whole hour.
woah, woah, for one thing Led Zeppelin is more far from gay more than you'll ever be, and obviously you're not a musician because his dancing is him feeling the music flow through him, and not caring how he looks
Zeppelin is the most over-rated band in the history of rock
hah I am a musician, I've been playing rock guitar since I was 10. I don't mean to criticize The Mars Volta because they are currently on the top of my list(I take that back, Pink Floyd will always be number one so let's say they are 2nd on my list after Floyd), and they are incredible musicians. But I will never get over those weird psychedelic pulsating moves. Just because cedric does it doesn't mean I have to like it.
