Tal vez lo último que uno se podría esperar de una banda formada por miembros de The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In o The Stooges es "punk acústico" . Sin embargo, Anywhere ha querido definirse con esa etiqueta, que más que definir su sonido, sirve para llamar la atención. El grupo está compuesto por el vocalista de The Mars Volta y At The Drive-In , Cedric Bixler-Zavala, el guitarrista de Triclops! , Christian Eric Beaulieu, y el bajista Mike Watt (The Stooges, fIREHOSE, Minutemen). Los tres han decidido unir fuerzas en lo [...]
It's the middle of the week, and what better way to get over the hump day slump than by cranking some new tunes? Onward... 3 Inches of Blood just posted a new track on their Facebook page, and it's a tribute to the "Metal Woman." It's a pretty rad track, and making me anticipate their ...

The frantic, guitar-driven, & intense band The Mars Volta are ready to release their sixth studio album, Noctourniquet . I remember when their first album came out thinking these guys are incredible and couldn't believe how they really had no fans. Well times have changed and these guys are a big favorite in the rock scene. This album also happens to be the bands first since 2009, but the wait for new tunes wasn't too long. The record features 13 tracks and will be released next week on March 26th. Luckily for us, [...]
The Mars Volta are set to release their sixth studio album, Noctourniquet, the band's first since 2009.

Last year, the guitarist of acid punk band Triclops!, one Christian Eric Beaulieu, pulled together a thoroughly impressive super group of musicians to form Anywhere . Rounded out by Cedric Bixler-Zavala (The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In) on vocals/drums, legendary punk bassist Mike Watt (Minutemen, fIREHOSE), and guest vocalist Rachel Fannan (ex-Sleepy Sun), Anywhere released two limited 7" singles which sold out with haste. Now, the group is set to release their self-titled debut full-length on May 14th via ATP Recordings. Beaulieu, under the solo moniker Liquid Indian, was experimenting with acoustic Indian raga music when he [...]
Hiatus, WHAT! If you slept on this year's Coachella, despite there being TWO weekends to choose from, I don't understand what you were thinking. This is the hiatus ender. This is the year.

Marilyn Manson - "No Reflection" Motörhead added to Mayhem festival line up The Mars Volta - "Zed And Two Naughts" Release date set for new Rush album Garbage release tour dates
While a significant amount of press has been focused on the surprise reunion of At the Drive-In , two members of that band continue to work on promoting their own new album as The Mars Volta . Guitarist Omar Rodríguez-López and vocalist Cedric Bixler-Zavala have been answering fan-submitted questions in a series of YouTube videos as they gear up for the release of Noctourniquet on March 27, 2012 .
The Mars Volta has released another new song from its upcoming LP. With the tracks released so far, this one included, they seem to have found a new focus, and that focus seems is far less self-indulgent. There is something immediately accessible about this song, but it still maintains the progressive and experimental edge that The Mars Volta is known for. The vocals keep their emotion, but this time around the lyrics are at least somewhat decipherable. Musically, they do a fantastic job of building with steady, kick-heavy drumming and bright synthesizers. It builds wonderfully into the chorus where the [...]

In the end, robots will rule the world. It's all because of the impending technological singularity. Basically it works like this: artificial intelligence is growing in sophistication at an exponential rate. Once it takes over what the human brain is capable of then all bets are off. And that shouldn't be too long away now. Computers will accelerate away beyond our understanding and do things we don't get as they become the chief agents of their own development. It'll be like the film I, Robot but without Will Smith. Or robots. What's this got to do with [...]
New music here, new music there, new music everywhere! By now you've probably read my headline and you know where this is going, so let's get right to it: The Atlas Moth - whose 2011 record An Ache For the Distance was my absolute most favoritest album of the year - have followed up their [...]
