Mars Volta Lyrics

    ------ About the song Inertiatic ESP performed by Mars Volta

Yes, this song is about their friend who is in a coma. This person actually existed and he was very sick from drug addiction. The whole album is about his visions from this coma. From what I understand, he had killed himself when he snapped out of it because he was so upset that all the crazy visions were over and he had to come back to reality.

    ------ About the song Viscera Eyes performed by Mars Volta

Amputechture DOES have a unifying theme, it's your problem if you don't know how to interpret Cedric's lyrics. Amputechture's theme is religions in general. Viscera Eyes is about Jesus Christ delirious and crucified. Find out the other songs by yourself. Bedlam In Goliath does have a unifying theme too, not as Octahedron. I've heard Noctourniquet will be a concept album, and that Cedric wrote a book which will be the basis for Noct.

    ------ About the song Tetragrammaton performed by Mars Volta

Pretty sure this is a story about a girl possessed by a demon named Rusbel, and a priest who attempts various methods of exorcism to lure the demon out. Why do I think this? If you google "Rusbel demon" you'll find an article that references The Times in 1850 or something where a girl is reported to be possessed by a devil named Rusbel. The devil also supposedly spoke through the girl. Now, relate this to the lyrics.

The first few verses are from the priest's perspective, who starts the exorcism. The chorus relates to the girl speaking in tongues, a hatred towards god, etc etc. The next few verses are the priest reflecting on how the girl had never really been strong in her faith.

Then the devil tells the girl to act as though he is gone etc etc. He goes into hiding within her. Then a few examples of the various exorcism methods. And then, of course, the conclusion where it is revealed to the listener that the girl is dead but the devil is still possessing her in secret, with

"They'll check my wrist, I'll faint a pulse
I'm not the human, You thought I was"

    ------ About the song L'Via L'Viaquez performed by Mars Volta

To the guy who wants to know why so many Americans comment this song hmmm maybe because The Mars Volta is from El Paso Texas (that's in the U.S)

Also John Frusciante ionly plays with them occasionally if your a fan of at the drive in and the mars Volta you can tell the difference between Cedric and Johns playing styles

    ------ About the song This Apparatus Must Be Unearthed performed by Mars Volta

This song is about Moatillitia being summoned by children (twins) to avenge the deaths of many children in a town that Koral Mataxia rules. Koral claims to be sacrificing children to keep the monster Moatilliatia at bay. But, known only to the twins - Koral is eating the sacrificed children instead of suffocating them in sacrifice. Moatillitia is actually Cerpin Taxt (the guy that the entire ablum is about) and this is his mission from his subconscious manifestation the 'Tremulants' after being punished by the Tremulants for attempting suicide and slipping into a coma(The Comatorium). The twins die and Moatillitia is raised from the altar and kills the entire town 'Avenging the lamb as bait' and by killing the 'lamb' he draws out Koral with the stench of dead bodies 'as bait'. He then rips Koral in half and Cerpin wakes up from his Coma. Televators is about his wanting to return to the Comatorium by jumping of a bridge.

It's been several years since I've discovered this amazing/unique/out of this world band and every single time i get the feeling they still have so much to deliver into this world through their songs. it may be the lyrics that i choose to interpret different everytime but who knows maybe it's subconscious and i don't choose anything they just reveal themselves to me.
