The Mars Volta - Cicatriz ESP - Live + Improvisations (Lowlands II)

[@jonwilder9220]

I've seen a lot of live versions of Cicatriz, but NONE that were melded with Cassandra Gemini...until this version. This is pure perfection!!!

[@Jesusspop]

It really doesn' t get any better than this !!

[@soundofreality]

Best Omar and Cedric era ever

[@QwQ-qwq]

Sin duda

[@arbraulin]

RIP Isaiah "Ikey" Owens

[@johanpauwels7894]

I was there. This was around 10:00 in the morning , second day of the festival. Little hungover. Deloused was released a month before. Half the audience didn't know the band. I remember audience members looking at each other like "I don't understand this, but it's great!".

[@Musi0sophE]

Billions of people have not seen this.

[@AmyE4D]

just what i needed on a friday morning

[@jonwilder7965]

I have never once heard them medley mix Cicatriz with Cassandra Gemini!!! Holy fuck that was badass!

[@zealot027]

+Jon Wilder They actually wrote Cassandra Gemini based on stuff they did while improvising over De-Loused material. This show in particular contributed a lot!

[@MrTheBigM]

This is just so strong

[@christopherarchuleta3669]

This is a lot better than the studio. And the studio is already good. Also love how long they carried on that riff from Cassandra Gemini around 15:00. One of their best motifs.

[@Rambler1995]

I have a hard time believing that drummer was a human.

[@nunomartins4265]

+Michael Hinman well, he still is

[@jmrub06]

That was incredible!

[@growskull]

those vocals at the start insane DO YOU REMEMBERRR!!!

2:10 Cicatriz ESP ¿Recuerdas su nombre? Do you recall its name? Como sugirió beck and call As it suggested beck and call Esta cara y talón This face and heel Arrastrará tu halo a través del barro Will drag your halo through the mud Ceniza de Pompeya Ash of Pompeii En erupción en el polvo de una estatua Erupting in a statue's dust Envuelto en velos Shrouded in veils Porque estas esposas duelen demasiado Because these handcuffs hurt too much Scalping estos aplausos sin boleto Still scalping these ticketless applause Y cuando arrastran el lago no queda nada And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all Contusión suturada Sutured contusion Más allá de los hormigueros del amanecer de esta plaga. Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague Dije que perdí mi camino Said I've lost my way Incluso si este callejón sin salida pagaría Even if this cul-de-sac would pay Para alcanzar dentro de una bóveda To reach inside a vault Cualquiera sea el costo Whatever be the cost Hielo ennegrecido claro esterlina Sterling clear blackened ice Y cuando arrastran el lago no queda nada And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Contusión suturada Sutured contusion Más allá de los hormigueros del amanecer de esta plaga. Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague Dije que perdí mi camino Said I've lost my way Incluso si este callejón sin salida pagara Even if this cul-de-sac did pay Para alcanzar dentro de una bóveda To reach inside a vault Cualquiera sea el costo Whatever be the cost Hielo ennegrecido claro esterlina Sterling clear blackened ice Y cuando arrastran el lago no queda nada And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Más allá de los hormigueros del amanecer de esta plaga. Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague Dije que perdí mi camino Said I've lost my way Incluso si este callejón sin salida pagara Even if this cul-de-sac did pay Más allá de los hormigueros de Beyond the anthills of Más allá de los hormigueros de de de de de de Beyond the anthills of of of of of of of Dije que perdí mi camino, sí Said I've lost my way yeah Incluso si tú Even if you Incluso si tú Even if you Incluso si alcanzas dentro de una bóveda Even if you reach inside a vault Cualquiera sea el costo Whatever be the cost Hielo ennegrecido claro esterlina Sterling clear blackened ice Whoa, arrastran el lago, no queda nada en absoluto Whoa they drag the lake there's nothing left at all Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected Yo deserté I defected

[@fugamantew]

This is how you take what the greats have done and make it your own. Long-live TMV

[@adambassett8081]

Nope. Nobody is that good on drums. Refuse to accept it. God bless you Jon.

[@lex_C_88]

Adam Bassett I've been saying that since 05

[@viviantriana5146]

[@jordantruxton]

[@kandrewr51]

EUPHORIC!!

[@TheJakedead]

10:39 drop the power

[@williamscandiavallejos9376]

man whats name of that songs part

[@HunterFunk]

So much Cassandra Gemini is right here

[@jonwilder7965]

I honestly can't believe there actually exists a version of Cicatriz with Cassandra Gemini ad libbed in. I'd always imagined them doing it...the two songs gel VERY well together. But never knew they actually did it until I found this vid. Absolutely perfect combination.

[@bobthesalesclerk]

@@jonwilder7965 This was before Frances the Mute. A lot of the jams from Deloused era improves made it onto Frances the Mute.

[@epuacnos]

BRUTAL 23:06 GOD 23:53 :O

[@gundam0043]

[@BruZ998]

[@emperorphil2547]

[@reggiehammond1420]

[@alexhennigh5242]

I mean this is a live performance so...

[@lex_C_88]

Alex Hennigh i think he was saying why can't they play like this in all their performances

[@samsamm9167]

爱herwayan+tinikub:)

[@kandrewr51]

Is there any way someone can improve the sound quality and make this into an mp3 file?

[@jordantruxton]

The marble shrine. Google.

[@jasason10]

Please next time just keep the camera on the drummer the whole time. Thank you

[@overki]
