The Mars Volta - Noctourniquet - the official EPK

The official EPK for The Mars Volta's "Noctourniquet" album. Noctourniquet is now available on iTunes here - ‪smarturl.it/TMV...

[@YoutanPoluo]

4:56 That, my friends, is why if you are anywhere near a venue that Mars Volta are playing at, you should most definitely go see them live: "why the live experience is important, you pay for an individualized, kind of exclusive moment, that may not happen again." - Cedric.

[@voltgrant1569]

That's why TMV is an important project. They knew the point of music. Many bands just play the same song and that's all.

[@jorgeartz]

Yep, i've heard of it. And as good as it sound, no one would want to see this band kissing us goodbye's. So, its just hard to process i guess...

[@gabrielmarcal4236]

How can Omar have 37 years in this interview, looking like a 17-year old?

[@jorgeartz]

When will it be a DVD film footage of this divine band? i wanna see background stories, psychedelic scenes, giveaway footage and a behind the making of older albums. I'm pretty sure YOU want this, as i do! x.x

[@chumanjames]

Noctourniquet is mars volta's best album yet. I love having this record on vinyl; i just listen to this over and over for hours, and still hear things I didn't catch.

[@jeymz361]

Either Cedric or Omar have said before that they'll release all the footage they've been collecting (making of albums, tours, even the first rehearsal as The Mars Volta, etc.,) once the band ends. So hopefully it won't be too soon!!

[@Hypokrites]

I thoroughly enjoyed the introspection. This album grew on me. It deserves repeated listening.

[@kiltxan1642]

5:56 and then the band stoped

[@Tambundial]

Never say die, my friend

[@MaSoisSoful]

Looking back at this, the tension and rift between the two is definitely present. Glad they have been able to work things out.

[@Onamorata]

I love what Cedric said about Deantoni.

[@elkckyle]

So interesting. I could listen to these guys talk and talk. Nice Beastie Boys reference too.

[@robweezy]

2022! I’ve never got to see them live! Waiting for this surprise announcement where they do a tour! 🐐

[@itsjazmine22]

they make such beautiful music...enough said

[@MerKabaChannel]

omar said in an interview he has been recording video footage for a film since the break up of ATDI so we can expect something pretty revealing and solid from it, im looking forward to it a lot like you

[@ChaostheClown]

There words truly speak to me, and I can relate a lot of this to my life. These guys are my favorite.

[@seanturpin01]

can someone explain to me what the symbols were on that bass drum head? Im just curious I cant find legit info on that sort of symbols

[@flkfnd]

it first appeared on the CD face of ScabDates. It's a collection of astrological symbols, I think...

[@IdentityUnknown89]

I hope they play In Absentia, it'd be amazing live.

[@DangerRifai]

They look like runes to me. I don't know what context they're using them in though.

[@AyyAyyRon13]

hands down favorite band of all time

[@DandelionVolta]

according to Omar, when the band is gone. But I don't see why they couldn't have more live albums... specially for a band like this one, fortunately we get some decent recordings from time to time, but it's still sad. Hopefully Omar will release them in time.

[@TheBrowniemusic]

I come from the future. They reunited.

[@everymoss09]

funny thing is i went to best buy today and its already has a price cut, but i dont care, i love it

[@tripl3ogkush]

MORE, i could watch them speak all day

[@tololugo6954]

“You cannot do anything with the end result” Yet they worship, live and breathe other’s end result’ vinyl. Very myopic perspective.

[@keaton223]

i at least want to hear "Goliath" full speed and spot on vocals live before i die....selfish thing to ask i know

[@cloudynamite]

hopefully next year? like theyve done w/bedlam to octahedron and frances the mute to amputechture, heck, they should break their record n go for 2 albums upcoming 2013 n 2014 xD TheMarsVolta will never die! they continue to amaze me :]

[@TheCaptainGeech]

3:40 - Is he talking about the ATDI reunion? He did not want to be on stage at Coachella, that was EXTREMELY obvious.

[@mariorossipuzza]

i really want to hear deantoni live. 20 june, come quickly!

[@DesireeRodela]

Omar said he'll release a DVD when they are done as a band and break up "/

[@damnitalltohell100]

awww damn that sucks :( i feel like a dick now hahaa thanks for the info lol

[@JoshhuaRay]

The band is real; Dianetics is real; that is real.

[@damnitalltohell100]

sorry i don't follow these peoples lives damn. chill out.

[@J1Nflo]

Love you guys.. but definitely do some more Latin stuff, or some more jazzy stuff within the next ten years.

[@zuskichamaka4896]

Wish granted

[@J1Nflo]

@@zuskichamaka4896 hahahaha wow thank you for this

[@MyriadColorsCM]

I think i can wait, this album was great, but its like the Blizzard games, they make 1 or 2 games in a space of years, for example, see Diablo 3 or Starcraft 2, they took years to make these games, but they did awesome games. so,i can wait 3 or 4 years to a new album, so they have time to make another good album like that one. Sorry about my grammatic, english isn´t my native language. xD

[@MattW05]

Looks like we’ll have to wait for at least another 3-4 years

[@damnitalltohell100]

omar faked coachella hahahaha

[@TheDannydrum]

y los subtítulos!!???

[@WingsWithFeet]

I fucking love you guys.

[@NickB-md1oy]

[@CavemanZoinks]

I hope their next album is really upbeat and full of passion and energy. :3

[@phlagelum6312]

☹️

[@ExternusArmy]

@@phlagelum6312 Good news, Owen.

[@peterlopez8872]

Not my favorite cd and I've been a fan since the 1st album. I feel like I had to get used to the cd rather than falling in love at first site. Seems like there getting bored. Vocals were def. different. Ill always love the band but this cd wasn't my fav.
