Excellent production and execution. The percussion work lead by Drummer Pridgen is phenomenal! Cedric and Omar deliver their usual superb talent. The song format is a bit different (shorter tracks) to the epic song structure the Mars Volta used in their previous two albums.

I still like amputecture more than this one but, like any new material from Mars Volta, I guess it probably requires a lot more listening hours for a full appreciation.

Enjoy!
