Mars Volta Announced CD Release Date

I always look forward to new The Mars Volta. They are one of the most innovative rock groups of our time. They are always changing to fit the environment around them. Every album they’ve released stems from new inspirations and so you can imagine how excited I was to find out that The Mars Volta‘s fifth studio album, Octahedron, will be released on June 23 by Warner Bros. Records.

The record will be preceded by its first single, “Since We’ve Been Wrong” which you can listen to a live version to below…

The new album was written by Omar Rodriguez Lopez (music, arrangements, direction) and Cedric Bixler Zavala (vocals, lyrics) and performed by The Mars Volta group: Marcel Rodriguez Lopez, Thomas Pridgen, John Frusciante, Isaiah Ikey Owens, Juan Alderete de la Pena, Cedric Bixler Zavala and Omar Rodriguez Lopez.

If you want to see them lives, they are confirmed to appear at this year’s Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester TN and the second annual Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival in San Francisco.
