I've been trying to get on to their official site and see what's going on, but it has been shut down and now I have learned that they're not touring anymore. What happened, did they break up or something?

They broke up man.. where have you been bro lol? The reason why they broke up is two-fold. One, because they felt their music was getting too mainstream and didn't like the way it was going. And two, Omar and Cedric had different ideas for what they wanted their future music to sound like, and Jim, Tony, and PAUL didn't see eye-to-eye. Hence, Sparta and Mars Volta.

sparta = jim, tony, and paul's new band mars volta = cedric and omar's new band (with 3 or 4 additions)
that pretty much covers it.

Lol, yeah I was too lazy to look into any of it until tonight. Then I found The Mars Volta and Sparta stuff. I think both bands music is pretty good. Just a little depressed because I never got a chance to see At The Drive-in live

Actually, no. The first song I heard was probably Ticklish. However, what if it was the first song I heard? People are turned onto music everyday. I definately enjoy their old albums over relationship of command. So, in closing quit being a dick and sorry if you heard them first. I forgot when discovering music became a competition

I remember when I hated ATD-I, but Im weird when it comes to music. It takes me a couple listens to get into certain bands. But the song that turned me on to At The Drive-In was "Lopsided." Then "198d" got me completely hooked. Now, they're my favorite band.
