The Mars Volta

I gotta be honest, I was not really taken too much by At The Drive In. It just didn't sound as tight to me.

And I don't think the Volta have really put anything out yet that has as much collective fire since Frances the Mute. Amputechre, The Bedlam in Goliath and Octahedron are in no way bad albums. They're all well thought out, tight and have their share of good songs, but there was a certain manic feel to Deloused in the Comatorium and Frances the Mute that I don't think they've captured throughout on their more recent releases.
