The latest in a large run of 2009 solo records from Omar Rodriguez-López may be the tightest Mars Volta-related release in years.
As both a member and co-composer of all the Mars Volta's recordings, and as a solo artist, it appears Omar Rodriguez-Lopez doesn't sleep.
The feel of Xenophanes is sketchy and somewhat improvised, but there’s no sense that these songs are simply impressionistic doodles.
