Description
THE MARS VOLTA De-Loused in the Comatorium hails from 2021 and is a SEALED Exclusive Gold and Black Marble Vinyl 2LP that comes in a tip-on style gatefold sleeve for VMP Exclusive. "'De-Loused' was Rodriguez-Lopez and Bixler-Zavala’s attempt at “their own thing,” and it worked. To say 'De-Loused in the Comatorium' redefined progressive rock in the 21st century isn’t an overstatement. The album wasn’t just a continuation in the lineage of classic epics like Pink Floyd’s 'The Dark Side of the Moon' and 'The Wall,' King Crimson’s 'In the Court of the Crimson King,' Genesis’ 'The Lamb Dies Down on Broadway,' and Frank Zappa’s 'Joe’s Garage.' It was reinvention, too: Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala's punk roots colliding with psychedelia in a way that breathed new life into the genre."
De-Loused in the Comatorium is the debut full-length studio album by American progressive rock band The Mars Volta and was originally released in 2003. Based on a short story written by lead singer Cedric Bixler-Zavala and sound manipulation artist Jeremy Michael Ward, the concept album is an hour-long tale of Cerpin Taxt, a man who enters a week-long coma after overdosing on a mixture of morphine and rat poison.
The title of the album is taken from the lyrics of the song "Eunuch Provocateur", which is included on the band's debut EP, Tremulant. The cover artwork is by Storm Thorgerson, who also designed the artwork for the album Frances the Mute. The album is co-produced by Rick Rubin and The Mars Volta guitarist Omar Rodriguez-Lopez. As Eva Gardner, the original bassist, parted ways with the band, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea is featured as bass guitar player on the album.
The vinyl edition of the album was only released in the U.S. in limited quantities and is a much-wanted vinyl piece.
