Hailed by The New Yorker as 'perhaps the most musically adventurous act currently signed to a major label' and by Rolling Stone as 2008's Best Prog-Rock Band, The Mars Volta makes its Warner Bros. debut with Octahedron, the highly acclaimed group's fifth studio album. Following 2008's The Bedlam In Goliath-its third consecutive album to debut Top 10-which featured 'Wax Simulacra,' Grammy winner for Best Hard Rock Performance, The Mars Volta's punkperverted neo-psychedelia goes acoustic on Octahedron. Says the band's Cedric Bixler Zavala: 'There's electricity throughout it! But that's what our band does-celebrate mutations.'
