MARS VOLTA

The Mars Volta features Cedric Bixler and Omar Rodriguez from former band At The Drive-In, and drummer Jon Theodore (formerly of Golden). The first full-length album from The Mars Volta titled De-Loused In The Comatorium songs composed since the band's spring 2001 inception. On this record, The Mars Volta is: Omar Rodriguez-Lopez (guitars), Cedric Bixler-Zavalas (vocals), Jon Theodore (drums), Jeremy Michael Ward (sound / manipulation), Michael Flea Balzary (bass) and Ikey Isaiah Owens (keyboards). De-Loused In The Comatorium was produced by Rick Rubin and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez.

A fully realized concept album inspired by the suicide of a close friend of Mars Volta founders Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavalas, De-Loused in the Comatorium's narrative consists of fantastic worlds and adventures that Cedric imagines the friend experiencing while in a coma following an unsuccessful suicide attempt. Although the story ends tragically, the creators insist that this is a celebration of the adventurous and daring life that their friend lived.
