I find this an increasingly funny situation, since all of you are worried about not being able to find them, and I'm worried about hearing them before the album comes out

Not hearing any new Mars Volta is like having to starve, or hike for days through the desert with no water.

Not hearing any new Mars Volta is like having to starve, or hike for days through the desert with no water. that's exactly how I was feeling. The news are in a coma-status and the album won't be released until the end of April at the earliest (if it won't be delayed for a May-June release). I'm sorry, but I just had to listen to two songs.. and after the listens, GOD DAMN it felt good! I think there are only two songs on the net, the rest probably isn't shared. "Inertiatic" will definitely make it on my all-time fav songs ever list! After the long intro (with the song, no german speech), the band kicks in, and there's much more clarity in the studio version than in the live versions. They added an awesome tambourine overdub (for the love of psychedelia, I guess:)) on the part where the band kicks in (the part where Cedric's moaning "Oooaaahh!"). Some lovely effects on that song, and it doesn't sound too chaotic. Actually, it sounds just as I thought it would.. mixed by Rick Rubin, kinda sounds like they'd play with SOAD:s or RHCP:s instruments, very much the same sound as their music. Very clear production. (though it would've been more interesting if recorded by Alex Newport, to get that echo-y sound and mix.. Tremulant had that lovely chaotic, aggressive sound). And for "Roulette Dares", this version kicks the old one's ass!! It's a little longer in the end, with that extra bit of the chorus riff coming and the outro slowing down, like on the Santa Barbara live version. Very cool stuff... I've been playing these two songs for at least a dozen times now, Cedric's voice is ringing in my ears (aahh...! I don't think I'll need more songs for now, I'll be waiting... Or if anyone is able to do it and has all the songs, could you please make shorter clips, say, 30-40 sec, and send them to Anton or post a link here. It would be very very grateful, I believe the other fans could listen to those.

agreed, someone STOLE the songs from me on soulseek, when i didnt know what the hell soulseek did and everyone is thanking him and not even mentioning me, tahts all. if you could, i'd just like you to clear something up for me, because i'm a bit confused. first, you went onto soulseek, not knowing what the program did, and also shared two songs you preferred were not circulating, that only you had access to? then, when dutchie saw them and downloaded them, you got mad at him? because he ran a search and found some tracks on a soulseek search? then, you want credit for these files, as if you wrote them or something? i just want to make sure we're on the same level here...

I have a mac with a shitty dial up, so I'm having trouble finding these songs. Probably for the best though. I'll be strong... I can hold out....

does suck blitzkrieg you leaked the songs.. you dont get a thanks though.. i totally believe in sharing of music.. but.. if all of the people.. who were not totally into mars volta like we are.. to appreciate them enough to buy theyre album.. downloads theyre cd that was leaked.. then they figure why pay for the actual cd so they dont buy it.. Which means TMV doesnt get payed.. which means Omar and Cedric die of starvation and wither away.. doesnt take lars ulrich or a rocket scientist to figure that one out..

no matter what he said, im pretty sure all he wanted to say was that we wouldnt have them if it werent for him. i doubt he wants us to bow down to him, considering he doesnt even want us to have them at all.

Are those tracks complete? It seems like they are kinda underproduced, some mistakes left in, kinda weak production sounds altogether, etc., especially for a major label release.
don't get me wrong, I love the songs, but I just want to know if these are the finished product or not?
