they only have 3 songs. kinda hard to locate. try searching for "the mars volta" on your file sharing programme.

I like Concertina by them... I don't think I've heard much else. the only thing that bothers me about them is their lead singer.. is it a guy or a girl?
boo.

I'd have to side with Sparta, although I think TMV is a very good band as well (I can't really judge with only 3 songs to choose from though).

i saw sparta opening for JEW...they were pretty sweet
"Sh*t, id be f*ckin' scared if us were opening for...us"
-Dave Grohl on why the Red Hot Chili Peppers only let the Foos play a 45 minute set when they toured together

"baby, i wish you were my baby,
ill make u make a baby,
let's make electric power,
in fear u should not cower,
cuz girl i will protect u,
i promise not to sex u,
and IiiiiIiiiiIiiiiiiIiiiiiIiiiiii...." - Dudez a Plenti

"all by myself
cause I don’t want to drag you down, hold you down
cause you’re a friend
i blame myself
i guess you think it’s funny now, funny now
it's such a shame..."
-Feeder - Just a Day

I am still awesome.........................................................................................seriously.

I got 30 or so files found on Kazaa.

Someone tell me why those three bands (sparta, atdi, and mars volta) are all linked together. Did they do a project with eachother? or are they just alike?

30 or so different TMV songs?

at the drive-in was the original band. after 2000's relationship of command, their creative differences caused them to break up and form two bastard children, the mars volta, and sparta.
