Have you listened to any of the stuff they made with At the drive in? They were good too.

Yeah there debut album is fuckin great. I have seen them live twice.
Once supporting the chilli peppers at SECC in glasgow which was excellent, and the other time the played the Barrowlands Glasgow which was shit, they played an 1 1/2 hour set, which consisted of just 5 songs from there album, they didnt speak to the crowd, and each song lasted about 20 mins with long boring jams, far too self indulgent.
But i still listen to the album every day

FUCK!!!!! at the drive in..... im drooling..... i watched footage of them once, if u think mars volta are intense (i saw am live) check out at the drive in. they used to do backflips off amps on stage, and once he tried to fucking bounce his guitar. (something they dont do)..... when i saw em at the big day out in sydney the crowd was one of the most violent ive seen. but it wasnt like people were worried or anything, its just the music.

Ok "at the drive in" have a hardcore/punk background... it's expectable to draw that kind of crowd.

The Mars Volta are great on CD.
But live they're just too intense and strenuous. Omar didn't stop playing his guitar for a second during the 2hrs+ they played.

Man use the fucking search engine
While I'm here I may as well add I saw the tail end of their new video and it looked pretty impressive. But as for the band, not keen on em.

The white stripes are nothing like atdi/mars volta though.
I've seen the mars volta a few times, really good stuff. Better than at the drive in I think, but they are also quality.

yes, they're not that alike, but i don't really differ rock music...sure, there's difference in their lyrics, mars volta music is more complex...but the energy they both put out is the same. i don't really know how to explain this :-)

At the drive in was no doubt a energetic kick ass band. With releases like in/casino/out and that one i cant remember the name of just rocked so hard.
I downloaded the Mars Volta CD and i dunno.... maybe it just wasnt a good day for me but i got quite bored as it felt repetitive.

yes, appearantly. i was only listening to mars volta regulary until two monts ago - i checked white stripes for the 1st time then and bought all their albums since then + some 10 other rock albums (for now heh)...im also waiting for some new ones to be delivered, so yes, im starting to appreciate rock music again :)
last time i was into rock as much as i am now was when nirvana was still around...
