The best live band currently out there
Cal | 05/31/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Mars Volta are simply the most exciting, energetic, and awe inspiring live band out there. Seeing them twice, I can tell you from experience that those two shows were the best shows I have ever seen. With their improv jamming and extended songs, listening to them live is an experience that is quite different from their studio work. This EP is an excellent showcase of a few of their live songs. Recorded wonderfully, this four song EP clocks in at just over 40 minutes (yes, the songs are that long! I once watched them play 6 songs in over 2 hours!).
There are a couple times where Cedric messes up on the lines, or Omar might play a wrong note, but it adds to the beauty of the album; it shows that they are not perfect and that they are willing to throw in some mistakes to make it seem more live, which many bands do not do with their live albums. If you are a Volta fan and do not own this EP, buy it...now."

"So I was lucky enough on eBay to get this rare peice, and it certainly was worth it. The last reviewer said something of the sort of Bixler forgetting his lyrics. No, he didn't, this is PRE-De-Loused and their live shows are very different from their studio sessions. Ced likes to mix things up. There are some minor things that should be fixed, such as the bass being a little to high, but it certainly isn't a problem. If you're lucky enough to get this off eBay for 30-40 bucks, it's certainlyl worth it. Great great EP."
A De-loused fan essential.

"In short: this is definitely worth it. Unlike Scabdates, another live release, this CD is an accurate representation of The Mars Volta's live performances and is, for the most part, very high in quality. The recordings are very raw and should be played on adequate speakers to be fully appreciated. If you satisfy this condition, everything should really, really shine. The only thing thing more faithful to TMV's live sound than this is an actual performance. Definitely worth it if you can get your hands on it for a reasonable price."
