"over my dead body, over the search they lead"... that part literally melts me.

this is a very emotional song that means alot to me. even though it was meant to communicate the feeling of loss and dissapearence, kidnap, i just get a different vibe. brings me back to certain moments in my life i hope i never forget.

Their genius does not lie in their polyrhythms and complexity. It manifests itself in many forms, but most of all in melody. Still no one comes close to music like this. I can see why you might not like it; the aural assault that was BIG was not particularly to my taste. Hopefully we will all discover the genius of Octahedron.

Chilling.Beauty.Eloquent.Reminescent.Brilliant.

It don't matter, man! Do fucking hear that voice?! Dam! This band is soo amazing! they're music actually give s me the chills & makes me feel high... if you just lay & listen...it'll take you on a crazy trip....My mind becomes so out of worldly, so zoned...into a land of imagination...they have such a mystery to they're music! & the music is insanely enhanced when loud, and add extra Bass...Oh, fuck yeah!

my mother love!!! and I cant describe in words how I like

great song.. haunting yet beautiful

Man these guys just blow my mind at every turn. with the crap that is released regularlly by rock/metal band has been so sophmorish.The Mars Volta is a gift of beauty and melody with skilled players. Looking forward to seeing them next wednesday at the HOuse of Blues in Boston!!! They will rock the house

beautiful song

left dangling in the wind!

love this song, haunting and melodic

so. so good.

That. was. amazing..........

so good when the elctronic sounds/drums come in :)

gracias por darle su vida a la buena musica que escuchamos

i love this song especially the ending part

anyone else let the video run all the way to the end just appreciating how good that was?

Tilt your head back in a chair, or Lie outside stoned out of your mind with love beside you and portable speakers playing this song softly while glazing the starry night making your mind wonder. ...........5 minutes later. thump thump thump lol.

At least I'm not the only one. In fact, my dad was the one who introduced me to most of the music I still happen to like today.

Hell yea big day out is going to be so sick, cant wait to see these guys live again

When the synth drums kick in @ 3:49 I get goosebumps all over haha. Just beautiful!!

BRUTAL!!!

favourite part of the album. this song helps me drift off to sleep at night

Ive seen TMV live twice now. the first time i ever heard/saw them live was when they opened for system of a down. This band is simply fucking amazing and melts your face off live.

Nice pictures!

with this song I say that they use a sound that used to annoy me and they use it to kick my asss and blow my mind. I play this everyday. the first time I heard this at the record store with the headphones I said It sucked. THe internet let me play it over and over agian and now I have to buy my fourth mars volta CD. I still have to get frances the mute too. No one sounds like this at all. AWSOME STUFF !!!

This is art.

Breatiful..... Mars Volta never ceases to amaze me.

This guys have inspired me in so many ways. This is what you call Music! this is artistic, beautiful. Wow Words cant describe the mars volta

amazing album !

great song:D!!!!

the vocals are a masterpiece

The Mars Volta man. Nuff said.

What a haunting and awesome song!!! TMV kills!!!! I can't get enough of this new album!!! Its the best since deloused and all there other albums are great to say the least!!!

They did tour with Tool and I got to see it in Salt Lake City! One of the best shows I have ever gone to! The Mars Volta and Tool together Just plan insanity!!!

I know this comment is 10 years old but I’m pretty sure they toured with a perfect circle and not tool. I went to that concert and how I was introduced to the Mars Volta.

Excelente tema!!!!Un flash.... Increible la voz de Cedric.....

you are welcome :) i'm happy to meet someone that loves the mars volta as me.

Indeed.

@themosmitsos its never too late for the enlightenment of mars volta, keep it up

someone knows the name of this rythm synth used at 3:50 ?

SAN ANTONIO!! :D got my tickets the hour they came out. my first Mars Volta concert ^___^ im excited

esta cancion hace sentir que vuelo. saludos

Ooh, I think I heard Björk-esque beats near the end of the song, me likey!

probably the best song to play while you`re going six feet under awesome pics man!!

hahaha, my dad actually introduced this band to me. I have some strangely cool parents though.

well said.

there was an APC and TMV tour back in '04. mmm

awsome cant wait till they come to Nz!

Drum machines and eerie guitars work very well together, apparently. I'm glad they do. TMV r00l.

Mexican and puerto rican proud

haha. totally. that's the way it's been with every volta album for me since amputechture

love the mars volta. this albums so different to the others. love the digital beat that breaks in halfway on this tune. been looking for anything else thats similar, though i doubt i'll find it. mars are just too good

The mars volta are a new music genre (Y)

there good

I think I like TMV's ballads even more than their face-melting explosions of noise and mexican fury.

damn.

Beautiful over ''normal'' ... Takes my breath away and makes me feel deeply ...

Ohh thanks :D

left dangling in the wind...

Cedric was born in Redwood City, California, raised in El paso Texas, Mexican parents BIATCH

i think he's using a vocoder-harmony light effect with double light at the end

Left dangling in the wind...

I said the same thing when I heard Justin Bieber for the first time. Sans the "I actually like this" part.

they get better every album

@Stardestroya agreed. i thought the same thing when i first heard this album.

@FlyingFuckstorm I have had people say similar things. I love it. More power Cedric for blowing minds.

woohoooo tomorrow!!

@Sehv13 hahaha you´re right, first time i saw them was de facto (sigh) such great days :3

@Kkrouton Check out their first two albums.

I LOVE THIS DAMNED SONG. I got the album 2 days ago and am addicted to this song. It sounds like a kidnapping or something im guessing a lil girl cause they say they poke the doll? :\ lol

There's a link to a zipped file somewhere in The Comatorium. Just Google seatch "mars volta font" and it should lead you there.

@PuReNiRvANA1 Well, he just treats his voice like a guitar with effects pedals and everything. Infact, he uses guitar pedals hooked up to a mic off to the side. He sings everything live, and I know this, because I've watched them live. Check out the song "Sarcophagi" if you want to hear a great example of his voice. He just uses reverb and stuff on some songs much like Pink Floyd would on songs like "Careful With That Axe Eugene". I suggest "De-Loused In The Comatorium" if you're to TMV.

and people said thomas didn't know when to settle down.

@Stardestroya In terms of creativity: Hell fuck, yes !

@PuReNiRvANA1 I've never seen them live so I'm not completely sure but I do know from live videos he uses some chorus effect on his voice. Not sure if this is what you are referring to? Besides a lot of singers fine tune their voices in the studio and a lot do during live performances as well. Anyways I'm fairly sure cedric doesn't auto-tune his voice live.

venetian snares influence right there

congrats! im jealous.

Es la mejor cancion del album ...para mi-....muy buena ... calmada pero la lirica es muy fuerte y oscura

sounds like BEE GEES!! how deep is your love

omg tomoro june 23rd im goin straight to jb hifi weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D

Oh, I didn't see that. They're not in TMV anymore? 0_0 That sucks for them.

I was answering someone's question about why Adrian and Paul aren't in the band anymore...

How come this version is longer?

es como si en una licuadora hubieran metido a zeppelin, morrison, floyd y la hubieran encendido!!! buenisima cancion, estos sujetos no dejan de maravillarme

@FlyingFuckstorm ha ha is just brillant the way this "girls" make their music!

These guys were the cutting edge for the new millennium. Great band, I hope they outdo themselves and change music again with another "De-Loused." But if they do this kind of stuff for the rest of their career, I won't be upset LOL :)

TMV LIVE ruined every concert before and after that show for me. They came on with no opener and played for 3 straight hours. No breaks. Just one long jam. INSANE

E X C E L E N T E ! ! !

esp from 3.30 onward

this album it's more accoustic but it's amazing and much better than the others albums, bealive me i have all the mars volta albums and no one of the rest it's more amazing n than this! bealives me my friend! PEACE!!

@Stardestroya most definitely. mars volta are torn between led zeppelin, king crimson and in the end themselves since they don't copy they integrate past into their work.

@CristiaanC It's tough to sing well when you are the high.

where did you get that typography of TMV? Can you tell me please? :D

@mirvaz07 me too! :)

@themosmitsos check out asilos magdalena it's in spanish but amazing

Whats voice effect is he using the beginning of this song? Is it a light vocoder or harmony effect?

@flupusbarbosa561 haha yeah it is

@17Revolution76 i think its anti Illuminati. or at least mocking them. i dont know that much about symbology though. itd be interesting to study that more

@thirdeyeblind3 Yeah, shows a knife going through the all seeing eye. Made me laugh.
