frances the mute

The set-to-be-insane sophomore effort of The Mars Volta, set to be released on March 1st.

Oddly enough, Frances of Rome is the patron saint of widows. Her feast day is March 9th, which I think would be a much more fitting day for release of the album.

FtM is set to be out on March 1st. I'm so stoked!

Frances the Mute

Probably the best Album to come out in 2005 this year. The Mars Volta push the limits of prog rock with this album. Focusing their album more on song length, TMV did something very unique with this album. Basically having one whole song cut up into sections.

Frances the Mute is like a wave of electronic pulse riveting sensation that electrifies the body in a current of complex riffs, collaborations of several different arts of music, along with compassionate vocals, compressing this album into one harmonic sequence of greatness. The Mars Volta are pushing all the limits of Progressive Rock Music.

The France of American Sports

Until 2002-2004, New England. So called because the Red Sox took 86 years to win a World Series, and the Patriots took approximately 36 SuperBowls to win one. Having a sporting event without New England is like going deer hunting without an accordian.

New England is The France of American Sports, they almost never win any games.
