Re visited De Loused last night, and boy does that record hold up. Then went down a rabbit hole on Wikipedia about the band. This band has such an intense history it’s ridiculous. Like just the people in their lives who’ve passed away, and how it affected their music is crazy in its own right. Then you throw in the story about the ouija board during the recording process of Goliath which sounds fucking nuts. Now I definitely need to listen to that album.
FUCK. he's such a good dude. i love watching his gear videos with nick from tera melos. seems like such a genuine musician/person. man. this sucks.
It just hurts to know it's actually been completed for 5 years. I am starting to think it's never happening for some reason
omar is known to sit on albums for a long time and then randomly release them. at least with his solo work... but i bet they don't want to release that album without playing some shows supporting it, and the timing isn't working out for it. i'll forgive them for not releasing antemasque if they are working on that new mars volta album!
I don’t think we’re seeing Volta for quite awhile. With Cedric’s fight against Danny Masterson and Juan in a coma or whatever, I won’t be shocked if it just plain doesn’t happen at this point.
Fucking hell, just read the news about Juan. Fuck fuck fuck that's so sad. Hope nothing but the absolute best for him and Anne
Man 6min into the opener is enough to get me. Just the era of this band, Cedrics lyrics, Omar’s picking
Lmao I did the same thing a few hours ago. Whole album is a fucking trip and I can’t believe it doesn’t get more credit for what it is.
