The Mars Volta: New Album, Reunion, and Vulnerability | Apple Music

[@THEEArmoredSaint]

Cedric has never looked this healthy or acted this peace-filled. I'm happy for him. I'm happy for both of them. I'm happy for us as fans.

[@ErnestoMike]

He looks horrible, what are you talking about

[@haarmonic]

@@ErnestoMike curious. why do you think so?

[@Japan_of_Green_Gables]

@@ErnestoMike It's not that he looks horrible, in my opinion, but that he is sitting next to Omar who looks like he stopped aging after 2005 or so. Cedric is a 48 year old man, and I find that's what he looks like. His beard has grayed and he has some sun damage on his cheeks and around his eyes. That's it, really. Things also haven't been easy for Cedric and his family over the last 5 or so years. Stress has an immense toll on your body. If he does look horrible, which I don't think he does... it would be understandable.

[@bassage13]

all it is seriously, is being skinny. when you are overweight, which most older people are with their dad bods, that puts a serious toll on your organs and over time you start to look older. skinnier people just look younger.

Wonder who said it first though, Zappa said "without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid" in 1989.

Chrissie is a champ. Her and Cedric have not had the easiest lives over the past six or so years. They both have a lot of guts and strength -- especially Chrissie, but that's not to say Cedric doesn't have tons too. As a small side note, though, Chrissie didn't take both of Cedric's last names.

Seen You in Berlin 2000 something on the Bedlam Tour and was soo Happy not only seeing you Live, but also one of my Idol Drummers (from which there have been 3 only in TMV alone from 6 total) Mr. Thomas Pridgen. I Loved the Chaos and it's Timing but I'm really Glad you have come back after this long Time and try to get Tickets for June in Germany. God Bless You All.

The past couple of years have been some of the worst for me personally but when I see my 2 favorite bands release new music (RHCP and TMV) - I forget about all the troubles. Thank you Omar and Cedric for such a soulful interview.

Saw them being compared to Thom Yorke and Radiohead twice now. Fair enough in termos of artistic relevance and this last album made me feel it so vividly.

Saw these guys at that BDO in Melbourne. Brutal set, absolutely unbelievable.
