Octahedron
Hailed by The New Yorker as 'perhaps
the most musically adventurous act
currently signed to a major label'
and by Rolling Stone as 2008's Best
Prog-Rock Band, The Mars Volta
makes its Warner Bros. debut with
Octahedron, the highly acclaimed
group's fifth studio album. Following
2008's The Bedlam In Goliath-its
third consecutive album to debut Top
10-which featured 'Wax Simulacra,'
Grammy winner for Best Hard Rock
Performance, The Mars Volta's punkperverted neo-psychedelia goes
acoustic on Octahedron. Says the
band's Cedric Bixler Zavala:
'There's electricity throughout it! But
€¦ that's what our band does-celebrate mutations.'
