I don't care what anyone says

<a href="http://pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/m/mars-volta/deloused-in-the-comatorium.shtml">I really like The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium</a> and I'm not even all that into Prog.

Flame away, I'm ready for you.

I always wanted my hair to look like the guy on the left, but it always ends up looking like the guy on the right.

I'm kinda excited about this. Also a review in the NYTimes last week: <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/16/arts/music/16volt.html?_r=1&ref=music&oref=slogin">here</a>.

Listening to 'The Bedlam in Goliath' right now and I think I like it. It's quite busy. I mean 'busy' as a compliment, btw.

Before now, I never picked up too much on their stuff- I think my first inkling of these guys was goofing on their caveman-like appearance and when I saw them performing a couple of things off of 'Amputechture' last year on the Henry Rollins show.

I get the impression that there is some clarinet free jazz in the first track Aberinkula.

I will be honest and admit I have no fucking clue what the thematic angle of any of this is.
