We're looking forward to the Mars Volta's fifth studio album, Octahedron, due on June 22nd. And we can't wait to see them perform down at Bonnaroo.
Above, you'll find a radio rip of the first US single from Octahedron, "Since We've Been Wrong." The song is much mellower than previous Volta releases, and guitarist Omar Rodriguez-Lopez has said that the album will feature some acoustic numbers.
Judging by the UK single "Cotopaxi," (below) that description doesn't apply to every song on the disc.

cliche but true. and if someone can't see how amazing tmv is and my clear sarcasm in suggesting giving coldplay a listen, and understand that by me suggeting that it was also an insult than im done with this conversation.

These singles are cool, but everyone should understand that The Mars Volta is not a singles band, were not talking about The Killers here, let's wait till the album comes out.
Plus yayaya, have you seen these guys live, TMV doesn't thrive off one thing (Live act/singles/album) they are the whole effing package.

Exactly

Coldplay is GARBAGE too.

Some ppl have no taste. and limited description abilities, hence the use of the word "garbage". Go listen to coldplay.

You know...just because there are people who are good musicians does not make them good artists or their material good at all. TMV is a good example of this. Garbage
