Octahedron

THE MARS VOLTA Octahedron (2009 US limited edition 8-track 2-LP set pressed on WHITE VINYL - An album heady with the emotion and high drama that has always been the band's trademark, 'Octahedron' opens with the tender ache of 'Since We'veBeen Wrong', Cedric's keening vocal establishing a mood that's deeply blue, powerfully melancholic, a suckerpunch that hits every bit as hard as Octahedron's unashamed rockers [the gleaming futuristic funk of 'Teflon,' the tense chase-music of'Cotopaxi']. Pulling back from the full-tilt experimentation of previous releases, the album invests its energies in Omar's gift for songcraft, for swooning guitar runs of high tension and emotive power ['Luciforms'], and for the nagging hooks and melodies that wreath the churning rhythms of 'Desperate Graves'; superbly presented in deluxe spot-lacquered gatefold sleeve [featuring Jeff Jordan's instantly recognisable and suitably surreal artwork] with printed inner bags, housed in screen-printed PVC outer sleeve)**Strictly Limited to 5000 Copies ONLY**
