For Fans Of: At The Drive-In, Pink Floyd, Fall Of Troy, Sound Of Animals Fighting, Dredg


Verdict: A selection of promotional covers that were made available around the release of "The Bedlam In Goliath". "Back Against the Wall" was made available for finishing a puzzle on the bands website and having heard the original I'm amazed that The Mars Volta have managed to maintain their distinctive sound. The cover of Pink Floyd's "Candy and a Currant Bun" is another song worth checking out and proves the immense range The Mars Volta have. I wouldn't recommend this for people looking to get their first taste of The Mars Volta but is a great addition to a fans collection.
