Now this band is praised here and there, but "Acrobatic Tenement" is a pretty crappy album. Is "Relationship Of Command" that much better?

That being said, I love Sparta and Mars Volta, but fuck, 'Tenement' is just really bad!

I think they are known for what they started more than anything...they to me started alot of the music the people here listen to, or at least changed it.

I looooooooooove At The Drive-In! they are amazing.
shame they arnt together, but I think that The Mars Volta has a little advantage over the old band

I'm not a fan of At The Drive In, The Mars Volta or Sparta.

Acrobatic Tenement is awesome. What's so bad about it?

I love all of their albums.

I'd also like to say I was right when I said MaybeOneDay listens to shitty music.

I don't like the composition, I find it under-produced (flame away) and Cedric's voice is just annoying at times.
It's got some decent songs, like 'Ticklish' and 'Porfirio Diaz', but all in all the songs just aren't that good. I'll admit I had high expectations when I bought it, and it just didn't live up to it at all.

I think I like Acrobatic Tenement more than everything besides RoC. The production is fine for what it is. You must not listen to much music with bad production.

I already told you that you were right. Must I say it again ?

I listen to shitty music.

I don't blame you. If I were you, I likely would have pointed it out myself.

I didn't like Acrobatic Tenement at first but it eventually it grew on me.

Relationship of Command is one of my favorite albums of all time. Plus you can't beat Iggy Pop doing some guest vocals on one of the songs.
