Some people call them legendary. Some people think they are scum. People seem to be really divided on this band in a love/hate way. I think they're a good band. What do you think?

Good, but overrated. The Bedlam in Goliath was a letdown IMO.

Recently i agree. The first 2 albums were godly in my books though. Francis is my favorite album ever.

I reallly wish Omar and Cedric would get Jim, and Paul back. At the Drive-In was SOOO SOO much better then The Mars Volta.

Btw did anyone ever hear of Sparta and Sleepercar? (Jim, from ATDI.)

EDIT: Yes, their first two albums. Were really amazing. Their newer ones are more jam album, then albums full of meaning.

(Im sure some people will know how I feel.)

I always thought late-ATDI was a fair trade for early-TMV.

Early TMV was great, but I wouldnt trade anything for ATDI.

Can you imagine what they could make now? All of them got so much better at what they do.

I'm not saying I would try to stop them if they got back together. I would actually love it with the way TMV is going. Although I like Amputechture, Bedlam in Goliath is almost pure meh.

Their lyric are absurb, but poetically diverse in language. They just like their enormous vocabularly and can't wait to show their big vocabularies to all the girls who will say "Wow! I've never seen such an enormous vocabularly! Its bigger than Churchill's!"

I can understand that if that is towards their newer albums. But try listening to a song like "Miranda this ghost isnt holy anymore"

btw The Cure = amazing band.

My favorite song of all time is still Cassandra Gemini off Francis. If you have 30 minutes and can listen to it all in one go its a pretty amazing masterpiece i think.

It has its ups and downs, but there are parts that blow me away everytime, and the lyrics are actually very poignant i find (but as cryptic as always... just more focused).

I've never got bored of a band so quickly. Adored Deloused in the Comatorium first couple of times I heard it, then never listened again.

I can't listen to them all the time, but I love them when I put em on. You just have to be in the right mood to enjoy them, it's definitely not easy listening.

They're good and they are one of the most skilled bands out there imo.
