Nardwuar vs. The Mars Volta pt 1 of 2

[mobman47]

Omar is one slick looking dude

[mariorossipuzza]

at 8:00 they talk about their first gig with thomas.

i'm not american or english and what i understood is that omar "sung" the drum part and thomas played it 30 minutes later in front of 20000 people.

is it correct?

where was it?

[OverratedNotoriety]

I want Omar to fuck me really really hard

[bigbadbroman]

Fake people.That's all.

[SkunkRadcliffe]

nice shirt cedric

[TheBalanceMusic]

pleasantly surprised with their attitude during this interview...expected them to be moody and unfriendly with Nardwuar....they're human!

[mahavishnuxc]

1:30

Nardwuar: I have to revisit this again, Omar, do you feel like Jimi Hendrix?

*What Omar SHOULD have said*

Omar: ...Ah, so you've heard me play the guitar. Yeah, I kick serious ass.

[lifttreesup]

@mahavishnuxc i think what he actually said was better.

[woodzy72]

these dudes seem so fucking nice i want to hang out with the mars volta

[Dietpill]

I would love to see another Nardwuar vs. Mars Volta interview.

[poopmydogspants]

They seem to be very close friends. It makes me laugh, imagining the endless laughter I have with my friends :P

[MindstormRecs]

We've been slumming it on the streets and sucking dick for coke...lol

[Shad324]

lmfao these guys seem high to me

[toneage7]

@Shad324 naaaah not them

[HeavyMetalMushrooms]

@Shad324 I would be surprised if they weren't.

[yourusernamehere2]

Omar's so cool

[pokabeb]

God these guys are annoying.

[PumpkinBen]

Please, what's the song Omar sings at 3:05 ("I want to live in America...")?

[SKATERxPSYCHO]

@PumpkinBen i dont know if its a song but thats what Chavo of Black Flag says in an interview in the Decline of Western Civilization.

[phillramirez]

@SKATERxPSYCHO It's a song from Westside Story.

[JGill93]

the way they talk about jim is pretty cruel.

[kiggittykyle]

my favorite Nardwuar interview.... or wait it actually might be tied with the Sage Francis one

[Eltimbalero7499]

Wow they're so nice! I wish I could meet 'em

[verbaledge]

at the drive in<mars volta<evaporators

[carloskarurosuz]

I love The Mars Volta and this two guys are brilliant at what they do! But, damn, they are pretty snobby and kinda rude

[WolfataDoor]

@carloskarurosuz How are they snobby and rude? They are laughing the entire time.

[bastl41]

Not a Mars volta fan at all.

But very cool guys

[mahavishnuxc]

@bastl41 too bad, because they fucking rock. but my i suggest you smoke marijuana, or do any other drug that produces a euphoric psychological side effect and close your eyes and listen to any of their songs and you will never be the same again because it will blow your mind.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@mahavishnuxc Fuck that bullshit. The volta should be listened to with a sober mind in order to fully embrace its sonic force. Cedric and Omar wouldn't approve of your advice...

[mahavishnuxc]

@HookedOnMneumonics first of all, it was a joke. and second, you obviously have never been high on marijuana and listened to the mars volta..... It's an experience.

also, THEY'RE PSYCHEDELIC/PROGRESSIVE ROCK, you're suppose to be high to get the full experience. Look it up.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@mahavishnuxc Obviously it wasn't a joke if you're telling me its necessary when listening to their music. Why would I smoke weed and listen to TMV? I'm not in high school anymore. I used to shoot H and listen to Iron Butterfly before you were even in a nutsack. I'm just saying that you don't need to do drugs in order to enjoy it, if anything it takes balls to listen to it with your mind alone. What, your imagination isn't as powerful unless under the influence? Weakling and a coward.

[mahavishnuxc]

@HookedOnMneumonics i love the way your taking this seriously and i'm just kidding around. I was joking you need to relax. I've been to the Gadda Da Vida sober and high, and i will say its better high..... though i smoke pot, i wouldnt dare touch heroin. You need to chill, most comments on youtube arent serious comments. Music is made to be enjoyed sober or high - that's a serious comment.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@mahavishnuxc Fuck Marijuana and all the little cocky ass users that brag about it all the time. Listen sober or don't listen at all.

[dgenfo2011]

@HookedOnMneumonics "Cedric and Omar wouldn't approve of your advice..."

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@dgenfo2011 What of it, dipshit?

[dgenfo2011]

@HookedOnMneumonics Was using your words to respond to your comment "Listen sober or don't listen at all.".... Those two would not agree with you. Bar none. Watch part 2 of this interview - Cedric said he traded a hit of acid for his tattoo. They will keep rocking in the free world, along with others here... even if you don't. Go get a prescription or something, you've got some major internet anger issues.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@dgenfo2011 uhh if you've spoken to Cedric, (which you haven't), you would know that since two years ago the man is a scientologist now, quit being a vegan and doesn't consume any alcohol or drugs now. Fuck off.

[BossThugington]

@HookedOnMneumonics i agree with all of this, but its fairly narrow minded to say listen sober or not at all.

[dgenfo2011]

@HookedOnMneumonics If you can't tell that these two have been "into some shittt" in their lifetime, you are oblivious. The controlled chaos is appealing people that are sober or "doing drugs", but is more designed towards the latter.

[liverawkstar]

as anyone familiar with the BOOK by Thomas Pinchin (thomas pynchon) ?

"soul and you", "son and you", "soil and you"--- I cant find a match--

Im just sick obcessed with Omar's mind, and Im dying to know what this book is... ?

[garryjlee]

@liverawkstar It's Thomas Pynchon, and the book is called Mason & Dixon - amazon.co.uk/Mason-Dixon-Thoma­s-Pynchon/dp/022405001X/ref=sr­_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1308135319&s­r=8-14

[liverawkstar]

@garryjlee

thank you much,

I saw that on amazon,

but i didnt think it was the right title since the book they hold does not frame that exact text...

blessings to you for helping me on my endless

mad quest

[mambo4dude]

A Nardwuar / Tom Waits interveiw would be amazing

[TinyBitOfChaos]

I swear they're high or something xD

[InterstellarApple]

This guy should interview Ariel Pink.

[Dietpill]

This is my favorite Nardwuar interview. Naturally because I worship the Mars Volta. Can't wait for the 2011 release, its been such a long wait!!!!!!!!!!

[musicfiend49]

I think their commentary on their past bandmates was pretty rude.

I like TMV's music, but Omar and Cedric seem really snobby in this interview.

[DennisDeeYourSavior]

@musicfiend49 yeah, but funny though. Cedric and Omar have already apologized for this.

[realityorfiction]

@DennisDeeYourSavior where they stoned? lol

[br00talKidHxC]

what the fuck happened to this comment section

[Heleen012]

Best Mars Volta interview, i love that they're laughing and enjoying the interview, ahh i love you omar.

[cozymonk]

it makes me happy when nardwuar interviews a band I like and they're come off as nice people.

[Wizard48]

3 people are Rick Rubin.

[Wizard48]

I think Omar is incredibly humble.

[s0mppa]

Cedric wearing a Slayer shirt, fuck yeah

[MakkaPakka666]

they have the nerdiest laughter, lolololololol



[funkmonk33]

you guys reckon Omar a bit arrogant? Seems like a trait of many talented artists.

[LilRedRasta]

"sucking dick for coke" lmfao

[groovey65]

I have so much more respect for these guys after seeing this video they seem so cool, I would love to just sit down and talk to these guys!!

[ezzbbj8]

I like how in every other TMV interview, they look like they aren't having fun because people take them WAAAAY too seriously, but in this one, they're rarely not laughing. 

[MrsBixlerZavala]

Ahhh I love cedic's and Omar's laugh

[Roodski]

omar rodriguez loooves this book! (almost as much as he loves afro-picks)

[MrMeAndMyVideos]

Its true rick has fucked up albums

[thestormlscoming]

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Shut the fuck up pussy.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics yo dawg dont make come over there and round house kick you in the face

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable I would love to see your lifeless eyes after I slit your stupid throat.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics LOL that was HARDCORE.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Just as laughable as your previous idiotic comment. The fact that you can't retaliate without regarding my comebacks just makes you a fucking faggot, even more so then you previously were.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics You sir are a fagatini wich is italian for fhag.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Well you're a fucking dumbass for copying the "You sir" bullshit that everyone uses on youtube. Get a personality and maybe a dash of creativity you fucking cocksucker.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics lol fag nuff said

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Bitch got owned,

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics i know you got owned

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Keep coming back faggot, you're only making yourself look gayer each time.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics Hot english muffin.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Dumbass.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics I know YOUR a dumbass. The firts step to faggotry recovery is acceptance

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Faggotry Recovery? That doesn't even make sense you fucking cum bubble. From a fucking fag named Rico though that's expected.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics OMG STOP YOUR OPENING THE FOURTH GATE!!!!!

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Is that what you say when you're taking it up the ass? Homo.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics NO you are opening the fabric of space and time with your faggotry.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable The only thing you know how to open is your ass cheeks and mouth when commanded to do so. Face it dipshit, you're a rotisserie polesmoker!

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics LOL you have a pretty wild imagination.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable It's called creativity, and I have more of it in my nutsack then you possess entirely. Give up kid, you're beat.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics the only thing your creative at is being a fag.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable Once again that didn't make sense you fucking queer.

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@ricosuavable You're a fucking dunce that jacks off to Ricky Martin.

[ricosuavable]

@HookedOnMneumonics What wrong with jacking off to Ricky Martin?

[yockinnottou]

@HookedOnMneumonics this niggas crazy, hes got creativity living inside of his balls

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@yockinnottou ; )

[musicforchewfaygs]

they don't like jim anymore? thats a shame.

[losershram]

arggggh it's the meekprotoypes

[I4mNotEm0]

9:22 "es el hombre mas cabron en el mundo brother, si tu no conoces a ..." xD haha

[WickedMo13]

I still cant find "Damn I wish I was rick ruben" by mickey avalon.

[mahavishnuxc]

@WickedMo13 oh my god, i thought i was the only one who looked for that song. i dont think it exists. theyre liars

[navespacial]

I still remember when cedric wasn't chubby.

[SuperTrancend]

didn't omar die?

[jc2fly]

@SuperTrancend no you goof!

[mozchick80]

omg i think i just came...listening to oma speak spanish in his sexxxxy accent!!!

[TheElephant79]

@mozchick80 You´re stupid.

[ryotbryant]

sweet, they talked about hurt... huge NIN fan. mars volta rules.

[industrialhemprocks]

OMG IM SO ENTHUSIASTIC B/C I KNOW 100000 WORDS YAY

[LazyNoJutsu]

Omar's "Jim who?" comment knocked him down 17 points on my awesomeness scale.

Not that it matters; he's still way ahead of everyone else.

[Liface]

This laughing is contagious

[mahavishnuxc]

yeah what is it about international noise conspiracy, i hear theyre ok, i dont really know, they got ok reviews....

[Rustygallas]

By far my favorite TMV interview!!!!!

[Vacagnomo]

jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajaja

& more

jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajaja

[napkinshower]

there whole reaction changed when he buts out that ultra rare larry harrlow album. haha cool cool

[Bizdet]

his voice makes me fuckin giddy

[warwick5string]

lol From anarchist cookbook to the bible is like a total 180.

[piloppa7]

is it serious, that somebody is crazier than them???

[uriel112358]

this shits funny as hell

[avalanchesoul]

compare this to narduar vs rollins. i know who i'd rather hang out with!

[GarbageClause]

@avalanchesoul or nardwuar vs. coldplay. those guys are dicks!

[edgar215]

Man theyre totally geeked out!!! They had to smoke some great shit to handle this kind of interview!

[phoenix02200]

Estas Cabron Omar xDDD

[jdroker]

this guy....this guy....wow.....best interview ever.....he knows a lot of shtuff

[MutantCheeseburger]

omg did ATDI really open for The Evaporators? that is awesome!

[LucidDream]

I love when they talk about Rick Rubin. "And what does Rick Rubin like to do? He likes to lie on the couch a lot?" lmao.

[Nwood913]

They're high as fuck! hahahah

[SEXYBEAST8675309]

whats funny about International Noise Conspiracy?.... i dont know who they are

[AlexFernandes789]

@SEXYBEAST8675309 it's funny because that band is horrible

[Tremuoso]

Lol International Noise Conspiracy, oh Dennis Lyxzen, you used to be great, what happened to you?

[avalanchesoul]

@Tremuoso why did they clown INC? i know back in the day they were cool (or whatever.)

[LordofKFC]

it's great how you can just tell if a band's members are cool people by seeing how they handle a Nardwuar interview

[deorum987]

@LordofKFC EXACTLY! THANK YOU!

[mahavishnuxc]

@deorum987 cedric is like the nicest person in the world....and all of those mars volta lyrics are so evil and hateful and satanic., go figure.

...also omar should DEFINITELY feel like jimi hendrix.

[meeces13]

@LordofKFC totally agree! watch the Transplants interview for a comparison

[dachamp07]

Anyone know what album cedric has in is hands?

[magicbag6790]

best mars volta interview

[TTH247]

Nardwuar's interviews are good when the artists already know him and his schtick.

[KubaHeist]

nardwuar, are you gonna do the ron reyes interview?

[Necropulsate]

I want to decapitate the interviewer, his voice is so fucking annoying but his questions are good.

[nadialovesmuse]

the mars volta and FOTC would have been epic

[FollowersofDamu]

Best interview ever

[MrAmputechture]

lol "your ex-band mate, Jim".... "Jim, who?" "JIM WARD!" "Ohhhhhh that guy" lol

[illuminatijews]

the lead singer has the same eyes that Kurt Cobain had.

[acrobaticaromatic]

this is an awesome interview. most interviews with the mars volta they just get asked the same questions they're already answered hundreds of times and the interviewers are so boring and unintelligent.

[halifuckinfan]

Chavo isn't his real name, he quit in the middle of a show when he saw "violence" in the crowd. The view from Black Flag is that he saw that every night so they credited him as Chavo Pedatrist.

[FruscianteLennon311]

Nardwuar and Mars Volta = beautiful!!!!!!!!

[UKNOWIT88]

1:56 - 2:04 "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Damn shut the fuck up already, nothing was that funny

[elporto]

coool

[LinkkilledthepromQ]

ahh but when your high....different story

[s13eddie]

"Jim Ward who?"

These guys really ARE that immature... Jim is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, ever.

[pridefighter93]

jim is acting like a bitch because omar and cedric quit at the drive in and that was like 10 years ago

[acrobaticaromatic]

@s13eddie jim ward is a joke

[Jalkotsu]

Man, I'm still wondering why Thomas left. :(

I hear it was a problem between him and Cedric.

[gslopez30]

What kind of hat Omar is wearing?

[pridefighter93]

1910 paper boy

[ShroudedInVeilz]

'I prefer the Make-Up'

Cedric has the best taste in music.

[thescarletsilence]

for the record...

wicked wisdom sucks...

balls to be exact.

[kittenkilla123]

these guys must have some bad ju ju with jim ward lol. And is it true Tom Prideon is going to be replaced?

[hairface13]

@kittenkilla123 ya he's already been replaced by a guy named david elitch or something

[imafan]

I like this interview because cedric and omar are laughing alot...at least this guy is bringing some life to the interview!

[ewscrotum]

god im in love with them

[mommyimadeapoopy]

this is the best interview ever conducted. period.

[Pirate7X]

@mommyimadeapoopy Only 2 mins in & I totally agree. These extra serious musicians have hella sense of humor!

[cridantis]

This is the most laid-back I've ever seen these guys. Nardwuar interviews are either really fun or really awkward, and this is one of the better ones.

[swansong200]

@cridantis strangers attract strangers :)

[kojiok]

what year was this done?

[macarion]

The Cash version of Hurt came out in last 2003, so it can't be before then.

[eeeel]

hahah cedrics laugh when omar is asked about the difference between him and rubin - priceless!!
