Which band do you like the best? I think Mars Volta are much better, and their sound is more cutting-edge.

I think Sparta is better they are much more hard working and Cedric and Omar are nothing without Jim, Pall, and Tony.

clean out your ears StCause...the mars volta is what atdi would have been in 10 years if they kept improving with each year (as they had been). pall jim and tony couldn't handle the growth that cedric and omar wanted to induce. so they quit and took three steps backward to atdi's in/casino/out days (which weren't bad by any means, but its still going backwards). meanwhile, the mars volta spin out cutting-edge, original, unique, intresting music unlike anything that has ever happened before. they're way ahead of their time and some people just don't get it.
and please explain what you mean by "much mroe hard working".

That depends if you liked At The Drive-In for its rhythm section or its lead. Rhythm is just that, rhythm. There is nothing "awesome" about that. The lead section (Omar/Cedric) for ATDI was the talent and now they have joined with other "awesome" musicians...The Mars Volta. They're great. They're everything Sparta wishes they (Sparta) could be. Tony's a bad ass drummer though...  |

yeah, tony inspired. he was a bit scattered in his arranngement though. the tmv is a bit better though, if i do say so myself. i think he used to play with soundgarden (think i read it somewhere) and he's a studio drummer with a lot of side projects. he's amazing. mars has the most amazing rythm section i've ever heard.

ah man, come on. tony was a tight ass drummer. and paul was a bad ass bassist. personally ATD-I had an awesome rhythm section. i admit sparta stayed the same route and tmv went another. but i own both bands music because i respected ATD-I to the fullest. thats what it all boils down to, they( sparta & tmv) kicked ass in at the drive-in.
both bands need to create more music before i make a decision of who's "better" if i even make that decision. WE WERE ONCE UNITED AS ATD-I FANS, NOW WE TALK S.H.I.T LIKE VICTIMS OF DIVORCED PARENTS. i say at the drive in was way better than sparta or mars volta. #nosmileys

Sparta are ok I guess.
It's just that each time i listen to them, I want to listen to At the drive-in instead. I can't help but feel that two fifths of the band is missing.
Anyone else think that 'Sans Cosm' sounds a like 28 Days?

what i meant was the drummer, bassist and keyboard player. eva has rythm like a motherfucker, she's a really sophisticated bassist....i think its so cool that they have a keyboard player, and ikey's awsome.
damnit, you're right andy. i dont know what my fuckin problem is, its just when other people don't like the music i do, i go over the top.
sorry for snapping, StCause.

TMV is way too much effects for anyone to handle, you can't tell whats going on. and the lead S.U.C.K.S. M.A.J.O.R. A.S.S............Sparta is much more conventional and in/CASINO/OUT was and is much better than what Cedric and Omar can think of. but i guess we can agree that ATD-I is much better than TMV and Sparta.
Thank You......

I myself love Sparta, i've seen them 3 times live, and they have gotten better each time. tmv has yet to make it around to austin, so i can't say they're awesome live.
But they're both bad ass =)

why must people always say one band is better then the other? Sparta and mars volta.....I personally like them both the same, because theres stuff I really like alot about them both.Ya mars volta do kick ass ..and i cant wait to see them on saturday..but sparta also kicks ass too...anyways I think its hard to compare them both because they are 2 different bands and 2 different styles. Its like comparing a rapper with a rock group ....you just cant cus its stupid.  *this thread* |
