i used to like that first cd for some reason. after awhile though i just couldnt take the vocals. somebody get that dude a pair of nads. |
|
oh....and i am so sick of people telling me how "amazing" their drummer is.
nothin special
take music theory classes until you are an expert, take acid until your thought process is as useless/retarded as Mike Pattons, write songs.
voila
Mars Volta |

haha, that too |
|
i've been a fan since their first album, their best one by far imo, but i can only listen sparingly. vocals are cool but do get annoying. and the LYRICS. cool imagery but MAKE NO SENSE. |

Are you a drummer? He does some pretty cool things if you ask me.
Just started listening to this band recently, good stuff. |
|
yes sir, i am a drummer. not a great one. but a drummer, and a huge fan of those who actually are good.
buddy rich, gene krupa, alex van halen, pete sandoval, virgil donati
amazing drummers.
the drummer of Mars Volta.....just like Danny Carey....over rated
Carey goes crazy with triplets and quadruplets, Mars Volatas drummer pulls a couple of fancy fill ins and rudiments, and everyone thinks they are amazing.
they are just pretty good drummers who have very flashy styles |
|
im just kidding. i love mars volta. i also love hendrix, and all animals. i just have so much love its so funny |
|
he's not amazing but I think he does a really good job with that band. |
|
Thomas Pridgen on drums made the Bedlam in Goliath album worth listening to. |
|
p.s. do any of you know which drummer you're talking about? |

I'm talking about whoever played on De-Loused in the Comatorium |
|

De-Loused is an awesome album. Grant here didn't believe me until I made him listen to it the other day. <3 Funny that this appreciation thread happens now lul. I love this bandyband. |

Thomas Pridgen is an insanely talented player. He won the GC drum off when he was like 8 or 9 and had and was the youngest person to get a Zildjian endorsement by age 10, he's got his shit together. |

maybe he is a good drummer.
but no drumming on any mars volta album has ever struck me as even vaguely impressive |
|
DELOUSED IN THE COMATORIUM |
|
i am no douche at all, 'twas being sarcastic. |

MY BALLS ARE SARCASTIC.
care to meet them? |

these pretty much prove my point.
you guys were right that he is an excellent solo drummer.
in a band setting, just flashy.
going overboard with rudiments and flashy shuffles.....no biggie |
|
okay, orgy, that fake orgy was me.
my sense at humor ultimately led to you being mad. oh noooooo |

Tony Royster Jr. > > > > > > > Thomas Pridgen
Pridgen has amazing chops, but he loses himself so much in his own playing.
Royster is more of the real deal than any drummer I've ever seen. His hat work is fucking crippling. (That is Royster playing with Pridgen in the last vid posted, gospelchops) |

BACKED X 666
that kid rules. ever see the vid of him playing when he was 9? amazing!! |
|
But Royster is in some uber lame band that's not nearly as interesting as Mars Volta (if that says anything to you guys). |

I mean, as far as bodies of work go, I might give the upper hand to Pridgen subjectively, because I do like the new MV more than any studio project I've heard Royster do. When it comes to technique and fluidity though, Royster just has something that is inherent, something that cannot be taught. |

while i do hate mars volta, i will admit tony has a much shittier band.... but is still a far better drummer. |

fuck it, Relationship of Command owns all. |
|
I prefer to believe At the Drive-In was thrown from their bus Cliff Burton style rather than splitting and forming this band and shitty ass Sparta. |
|
I could never really get into The Mars Volta.
I listen to them a few times and wasn't really digging it. I heard it stoned once and it was OKAY at most.
Not really huge on their sound. I'd rather listen to the classics. |
|
havent heard the last couple albums from these guys, but their first couple were sweet as shit. |
