oojavaguru Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Revealed earlier today via short cryptic videos; producer Omar Rodriguez-Lopez has teamed up with long time collaborator Cedric Bixler-Zavala (both men of Mars Volta and At The Drive In fame) on a new project with former Mars Volta drummer Dave Elitch and the legendary Flea on bass. The new band, ANTEMASQUE, has been hunkered down in the studio and Volcom is proud to be able to present a longer look behind-the-scenes of the band recording their debut song, "4AM". Follow ANTEMASQUE on Twitter for an announcement soon regarding the official release of "4AM". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaxvinyl Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 flea played bass in mars volta too I could be wrong but I think he only helped them out by recording the bass for De-Loused. He was never actually IN the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njpunkmusic Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Digging this way more than the project with john frusciante. would love to get this on wax. is it confirmed that it is actually being pressed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannibal Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 This sounds like a step (way) back songwriting wise. Maybe it's just a casual project. Omar seems pretty into that style of band. Disappointing as I was happy to see that Cedric and Omar are working together aging, but this one is not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointing as I was happy to see that Cedric and Omar are working together aging, but this one is not for me. I, unfortunately, might have to agree. I'll check out more of it, but so far it hasn't really been my style. Which is too bad, because I was pretty excited when I first read the news on this. Oh well.

albert Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I am sure that Cedric and Omar just want to return to their punk roots. They probably don't want to over think things and become a mars volta 2.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agaetisbyrjun Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 There should be some tasty TMV information coming out today, but here is what we know so far: *Subject to change* - People who bought all three ANTEMASQUE tracks get the whole album when it's released which should be out by the end of summer. - New mixes of Tremulant, Deloused, and Le Butcherettes should be released this week. - The new label Nadie Sound will periodically release random shit from their "vault". They are going through hard drives looking for stuff to release. - first 250 people who bought all three ante tracks will possibly get signed copies of Tremulant and Deloused? Not sure how this will work, but more details to come hopefully. https://www.facebook.com/TheMarbleShrine/posts/10151992347996857?stream_ref=10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannibal Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 After being rather disappointed at first. I have really been enjoying the songs. It sounds to me like a very stripped down ATDI, or like if ATDI was a DC band from the mid to late nineties. There are still some parts I like less than others in the songs, but overall I'm really liking them. I will say, however, that I LOVE the Zepplin-esque Drown All Your Witches, and think it's easily the best of the bunch. It really is great and the bridge is a very moving musical moment.
