Btw: Take the veil is all instrumental except for the very end.

It has an additional ambience/keys part. The robo-guitar is less robotic.

Some parts slightly different.

Awesome to hear a mostly instrumental version.

 

The update I was waiting for. Robo-guitar always sounded less robotic in live performances, and those differences shining through are what've got me most excited for LT.

That’s good, then maybe it’s just a mistake. Or it’s a “correction” and Theodore recorded some uncredited drums that actually ended up on Bedlam somewhere.

I feel like im being gaslit by Omar. Genuinely don't trust the credits on any release since 2002. Did he really play the tea kettle on Calibration?

that tea kettle played us

Another thing worth noting is that Juan is credited as John Peter Alderete in all the records he's at.

 

That's bizarre.

 

EDIT: just re-watched that unboxing video from a few pages back, I think I see Jon Theodore credited on TBiG? Surely a typo? 

 

goliath imo

 

anyway if any of guys get the blitzkrieg tantrum rip pls pm me

what I'm feeling is we are being teakettled by omar. and it's been a long time

[issordni]

It's a full on tea bagging and simps are focusing on the kettle.

I'm pretty sure Marcel plays drums on rapid fire

[revefbug]

That John Alderete thing really is low, especially after his accident.

Wasn’t there discussion about ‘Pinapple Face’ being about Juan? If so this could tie in with the ‘You couldn’t be a spic if you tried’ line

[issordni]

This is beyond pathetic.

[revefbug]

Looking the unboxing video they even changed his name on the noctourniquet poster. This would put me off buying the reissues to be honest.

And putting his name last on each record? School playground level shit.

What? Really?

I don't like this.

Feels pretty good not having spent 500€ on a product insulting my favorite bass player who is recovering from a TBI

Omar “all my friends are sociopaths” Rodriguez-Lopez and Cedric “my black cat is blacker than your black cat” bixler Zavala. Assholes who happen to make great music sometimes.

[issordni]

Surprised they didn't just credit Eva on all the records. She was the real Mars Volta bassist after all, any proper fan knows that.

[fora_de_coma]

This band is a joke.

[greatbigyes]

this is sad.

(wonder if there's a possibility that it's alright and it is juan's will to be called that way but what my intuition tells me...)

Does anyone here own the Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie 4xLP box set? Like Los Suenos it came out years after the original release date. And has a retrospective booklet of photographs and extensive notes on every single song, written by Billy Corgan. It's hilarious and tragic in how absolutely petty it is. Every song's notes is a diss from Corgan to his other bandmates for how little they were contributing, how he had to push them, pick D'Arcy up off the floor, drag them to the studio, how unenthusiastic and uncreative they all were except him of course. Sure thing, dude.

I feel like honestly I'm done with these assholes. I respect and love all the music, I love so many things about omar's creative mind but I feel that something dies inside me. I remember telling omar "good luck with the music" when I was a 15 year old kid meeting him after the gig (2010). such a stupid and beautifully naive thing to say. well, omar, good luck with the music.

[s_uds]

I'm gonna sell that shit back as soon as I get it.

 

What the hell is wrong with him? What happened between them?
