I think At The Drive in are far better, Mars Volta are far to polished... i still like more rough in a good way? Just sounds better.... i still like Mars Volta.. but if i had to choose which one... it'd be At The Drive In
at the drive in every single time! i love the mars volta, i just think that at the drive in embody something raw that mars volta lost ARCARSENAL!!!
seeing as i have just deeply studied frances the mute and taken it apart piece by piece i'd have to say the mars volta... they're insane, incredible and there's something wild about driving over mountain roads in wales at top speed with "WHO DO YOU TRUST!!!" blaring out...
At the drive in every single time. Could the Mars Volta BE anymore inaccesable?! I know that technically, they are stunning, but it's just too hard to listen to.
