The Mars Volta are back.
After 10 years away, the duo released its self-titled album in Sept. 2022 — the duo’s seventh studio album.
The band will perform at Revel Entertainment Center on May 10. Opening for the band will be Teri Gender Bender.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, Feb. 3, at themarsvoltaofficial.
The album was critically acclaimed and reignited guitarist/composer Omar Rodríguez-López and singer/lyricist Cedric Bixler-Zavala – finding them at the most mature, most concise, and most focused place they had ever been.
The band will also play in El Paso at the Abraham Chavez Theatre on May 14.
Formed by Rodríguez-López and Bixler-Zavala, The Mars Volta rose from the ashes of El Paso punk-rock band At The Drive-In in 2001.
The Mars Volta made music that fused the Latin sounds Rodríguez-López was raised on with the punk and underground noise he and Bixler-Zavala had immersed themselves in for years, and the futuristic visions they were tapping into.
