The gnarliest band to hit the music scene since 'at the drive in.' The mars volta consist of two amazing men "cedric Bixler zavala" - Vocals and "Omar Alfredo Rodriguez Lopez" - Guitar. There is a slue of other random band members that fill in the rest of the music but Cedric and Omar are the main gnarlers. Although they are considered "un-tasteful" They still kick ass and open a new genre of music. Just try to play some of the mars volta on guitar or to grow hair like theirs. The mars volta , despite what critics say, are the most talented and original band at this time.

Dull, overwrought, pretentious crap. An incredibly overrated "prog" band, its just noise that useless teenages praise as experimental genius.
"The general Mars Volta strategy is to inundate us with so much horrible noise that anything with half a tune stands out as pure glory"

Band that caters to striving pseudo-intellectuals. Looks deep and meaningful on the surface, but has no more substance than 80's butt-rock (hair) music.
The Mars Volta and System of a Down, while their music is pleasing to listen to, and seems to have deep lyrics are pretty shallow. They rely on simple-minded bush bashing (SOAD) and big words haphazardly thrown together (The Mars Volta) to sound creative, unique, and hardcore.
