At the Drive In, the Mars Volta and Antemaque discography reviews (work in progress)


Antemasque

Antemasque (2014)

It a pretty straight forward post-punk-rock album ,the songs are pretty scaled down compared to what  they had  been doing  with the Mars Volta, and it's sort of a letdown Flea doesn't do anything interesting I thought he would bring more to the table, I thought they would do a super hardcore punk album, because the first song a heard was "Hangin in the Lurch" which is pure energy blow me away, but it's the only track on the album like this the rest of the production  is pretty  mid tempo radio friendly stuff. Omar Rodriguez-Lopez plays pretty straight forward, he's not on fool on attack mode like  his Mars Volta stuff  Mars Volta and Cedric Bixler Zavala vocals has its moments where he really nails it, but in general this album is a letdown compared to these guys other projects.

Overall: 53.4
