exclusive: amputechture

I got The Mars Volta's Amputechture while I was in Japan, only played it once, and didn't think it was good at all. However, I have sat down and listen to the entire album a few more times now and it is actually pretty good, but still very disappointing... De-Loused in the Comatorium was very good and Frances the Mute was a masterpiece!

And oh, surprise surprise, Sparta is coming out with a new album too...
