Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Not for everybody, but an artistic masterpiece overall

    When I bought this album, a friend of mine warned me it was The Mars Volta's worst album, but once I managed to get used to the large amount of "art" (instrumental space) between tracks, this album has grown to become one of my most favorite volta albums. The record is quite diverse, with transitions from the operatic "Cygnus....Vismund...Cygnus" into a more jazzy "The Widow". If you're looking for an album to skip around the tracks while driving to work, this may not be the album (but "De-Loused in the Comatorium" may do the trick) due to the artistic flow. On the contrary, the vinyl format of this concept album is HIGHLY recommended as the seamless transitions and flow can truly be appreciated as well as the sound quality of an acoustic medium.

  • Mars Volta - 'Frances The Mute' (Universal)

    Band's second full length effort, as I couldn't help but to notice the lyrics would often jump from Spanish to English. Tracks I was most impressed with were the four-part thirteen-minute "Cygnus... Vismund Cygnus" - featuring some classy guitar work from Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and the 32 minute five-part "Cassandra Gemini" that has plenty of changes during it's lengthy duration. "The Widow" and "Miranda, That Ghost Isn't Holy Anymore" is said to be more like elaborite poems. Some patrons, including myself might find 'Francis The Mute' a bit too complex (yet still enjoyable). Not a bad find.

  • Best Album of 2005

    This album is one of my favorite. Although I enjoy De-Loused more, this album is different lyrically, musically, and conceptually. The transistions between tracks are so smooth that it almost seems like 1 track. My favorite part of this album is the lyrics by far, some just stick out so much you can't help but remember them throughout the day. The least favorite part of the album is some of the long stretches of noise (I shouldn't say noise but it's hard to describe it in any other way) between some of the tracks, like at the end of the widow. I don't like the talking at the end of the first song either. Besides that, this album is an instant classic, yet progressively amazing. If you already have the tracks downloaded, buy the album because it flows a lot better and the artwork/lyrics are ...

  • ..Amazing album, not for the type of music listener who prefers verse chorus verse.

    I will never understand how someone could say anything negative about this album. It's art/music at its best. Full of power and feeling and is just brilliant.
