Which do you like better? I go through stages but I find that TMV's music is more consistently good.

I disagree, I find TMV work to be hit-or-miss. I love all ATD-I (except the first EPs, )

I like TMV, but the interludes of noise make me want to kill myself in the face. I hold down the fast forward button a lot when I listen to them, but NEVER during their actual music.

I also don't like how I can't understand what Cedric is saying half the time even when he's speaking English...

Only cool people can understand him.

That's exactly why I despise Francis The Mute.

Okay, I thought I was the only one that didn't get it. I like a cool noisy section, but just for a few seconds, or along with MUSIC. I like the musical parts of Francis though.

I like the first Mars Volta record more than anything from either band.

i dig omar's ridiculous barely-jazz-fusion records a whole bunch

ATD-I all the way; it's not even a close thing.

This made me laugh too hard

This thread needs a poll.

I am a huge gushing TMV fanboi. And I'm apparently one of the few that really likes their more experimental/noise-based stuff. I like Francis and Amputechture more than De-Loused. I find Amputechture to be pure brilliance. But Bedlam is just not catching me. His voice is so incredibly processed now, you can barely tell its the same guy.

As for ATDI, I'm ashamed to admit that I've really only heard a handful of songs. What I've heard is good and I liked it. Just haven't gotten around to picking up the CDs.

Doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt.

BOTH but at different times, is not like getting older, but like maturing and condensing. maybe tmv is not the future of atdi, is useless to compare past and present...

some pointers:

ATDI
1) el gran orgo, must be one of the ugliest EP ever, uglier than the ones before, its unlistenable.
2) relationships of command, its a diamond, maybe some people wont like the genre but the sound of the recording, those guitars, just a fucking timeless as fucking miles davis trumpet.

TMV
1) CONCERTINA, looking at it on a musicological perspective, it's made on a romantic bolero structure, try to get water from a rock, they made something unheard, at least to me. maybe they remind of santana-latin-boogaloo rock or king crimson but they just made alchemy on that song.
2) not that ATDI didn't ruled live, i never saw them then, but nowdays they throw 2:40 and up sets, so anytime they are near to town its good to enjoy the show, its just nonstop forehead-pounding massiveness.

i dont know what point i wanted to make... just voted for TMV because they have more play counts in my life than ATDI
