oh come on. is it even in question? mars volta all the way. ATDI were a good post-hardcore band, top of their field. but their nothing compared to the volta.
I was a massive Mars Volta fan until I saw them live. I still think it's a great record, but they disappeared so far up their own rears I doubt they can see anymore.
same, i will always love At the drive-in more because i heard them first and, well because i like them more! sparta then mars volta... but the afros... the pretty pretty afros!!! :afro:
