hi, ive been an atdi fan since vaya but i havent followed them religously
a while back i heard they were having a break from touring etc. and then later on i heard that they split up
so could someone explain why they decided to split up? also which members have joined which bands after the split?
thanks

I'm not sure about the exact reason for the break-up, but all the members split into two different bands, Sparta (Jim Ward, Paul Hinojos, and Tony Hajjar) and The Mars Volta (Cedric Bixler and Omar Rodriguez). They both have already released music, TMV has the EP "Tremulant" on the Gold Standard Laboritories label, and Sparta have released an album, "Wiretap Scars" and an EP, "Austere"... both of the bands are as good as ATD-I, maybe even better in some ways... It'd be cool if they had any chance of getting back together, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen, at least not yet...

jim said this in rolling stone "the reason atdi broke up was simple, we were sounding like shit and we didnt want to fake it".

if you think that anything from the mars volta sucks, then you are an ignorant fool about music. cut that city is an awsome song, along with every other song by the mars volta. just give it some chances, they are an awsome band. i have heard maybe one band better than them, and thats the beatles. i think the mars volta is more talented that atdi was, but they just haven't realeased enough music. i might get some sh*t about saying that, but its what i think. ATDI fucking rocked, and they still rock even though they're not together. but they're gona now, and i still lisetn to their shit everyday, but they're gona. and the mars volta is so good and they have such a great, original sound....i can't wait for their next release.
