The Mars Volta - Cotopaxi

[MrSebasgame]

Cotopaxi is a volcano from Ecuador

[TheNextRev]

Does any person know the equipment of the singer, Cedric Bixler-Zavala? Vocal mic? Vocal effect pedals? Vocal mic stand? XLR cable? Is it a SENNHEISER MD421-2 vocal mic? Please help. I have been searching for a very long time.

[MrCotopaxi]

cedric sings better then ever

[stonedjesus]

why are you talkin about ATD-I loll... take a look of sparta!

[chemiah]

I was at this show and it was the first time I heard any of the new songs. Killer show but too few songs.

[Computerdisplay]

oh, im sooo glad cedric has his voice back, he had a bad period during the bedlam tour, ok, the new album is not a frances or de loused, i dont think theyll ever do anything like that again, but this album is way better than bedlam

[volta1]

Damn i knew this song would kill live.

[brunobliss]

there it is, the white mic!

[mrgrinch14]

Holy crap he sounds good. Thats new, i'm very happy to see that.

[Tannerislegend]

yeah lol. it's fun to see when the band members of various bands are having a good time, but when they just trash their own songs, it's kinda rough.

[ther3volver]

GOOOOOOOOOOONG.

[sekeapa]

Oohhh... Goose bumps!

[dino]

LOL, a GONG! any idea on what song are they using it?

[eternalbattle]

I think there's a gong on Day of the Baphomets, somewhere.

[Lachy101]

LOL THERES A GONG

[vladan891]

LOL,it wasnt funny when i saw it,but u said it in a funny way and now its funny to me...maybe im just high...

[JSPederson]

I was there! This was an amazing fucking set. Love the new stuff.

[TOOLnavy]

holy fuck thomas has a gong now.

[eddypalacioschannel]

is it just me or are the vocals EXTRA pitch perfect

[smooch0999]

i think over the years cedric has been able to to mach the pitch he sings on the CD.

and yes i agree.

[ideitbawx]

part of it might be he's not jumping around like a fucking lunatic for 90% of the show.

i kinda miss that energy, but his singing has definitely improved

[Username11available2]

agreed

[OnlyJahJahKnows]

Holy crap!

[Tubbs2Cool100]

no, they are busy doing other projects...

[diogonegri]

He wasnt kicked, hes not there bcause hes not on Octahedron. so, he will be out just by this tour.

[Miscarry]

Adrian and Paul left...so sad

[tomfieldsend]

What did/does Adrian play? I only really know Omar, Cedric and Ikey by name. And whos Paul? Sorry, he's not on the cd group listings....

[jabob4444]

Paul is a sound manipulator lol?? i really only ever see him do anything when they play viscera eyes. adrian plays woodwinds and percussion. marcel is omars brother plays synth and percussion, thomas is drums. juan is bass thats pretty much is but paul and adrian arent on the new album and i dont know if there tou anyone ring with them...know?

[jabob4444]

wow so many typos i meant anyone know if they are touring hahahaha

[ideitbawx]

i'm not too sad about paul leaving. he was brought on to basically do jeremy michael ward's job, and after listening to bedlam in goliath god knows how many times, i've concluded paul can't do it. that was jeremy's craft: that's a big part of what made de-loused so unique. paul was the bass player in a punk band! there's a bit of a difference in approach.

i wish him the best success from here on in; he's got skill, but it wasn't justified on bedlam

[drumsex]

where the fuck is adrian!!!!!! dont tell me he's gone from the volta??

[bikerboy180]

I heard he was kicked out of the band =(

[oui]

Wherever you heard that, I believe it to be wrong.

[bikerboy180]

According to Wikipedia Paul and Adrian aren't listed as contributors to Octahedron =( Let's hope they're on a break...

[DeLoused777]

They weren't kicked out they just werent included to "make the album acoustic"

[Crobberman]

They're fired. Damn it.. =(

[Crobberman]

Check their site. They were asked to leave the band and they did it.

[Dan070]

Omar pushed him down some stairs :(

[fivesixkillers]

real tight.

[thyanussmells]

sounds right on wtf... man that was awesome!
