The Mars Volta are back!

And by back, I mean.....LAID BACK.
New album, Octahedron, is very slow-motion compared to their last 2-3 albums (mind you I'm only halfway through the first listen).

Interesting, to say the least. The closest they'll come to an acoustic record. Definitely worth checking out if you were among those who found Amputechture and The Bedlam in Goliath a bit too out there.

edit: just as I post this a quiet song fades out and the next track starts so loud and fast and suddenly I damn near poop my pants.
