Omar Rodriguez-Lopez - Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fungus
Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fungus² is one of four solo albums
completed in 2001 by OMAR RODRIGUEZ LOPEZ, upon disbanding AT THE DRIVE IN.
Simultaneous to launching the massive undertaking that would become THE MARS
VOLTA, Rodriguez Lopez (as well as his usual cast of co-conspirators) spent
much of that year in his Long Beach studio, Anikulapo, blowing off the
proverbial steam resultant from the previous few years of endless touring.
Indicative of Rodriguez Lopezıs habit of constantly shuffling ideas and
compositions amongst his various outlets, the record features tracks that
were intended for eventual use by THE MARS VOLTA but reassigned, for one
reason or another, and prior to the release of this album via Infrasonic
Sound, unknown to the public. ³Absence?² was tracked at Doug Messengerıs
North Hollywood studio only a few weeks after Rodriguez Lopez recorded ³A
Manual Dexterity Soundtrack, Vol. 1² there, and is comparable to that
project in both sound and atmosphere. Available on CD and LP October 7,
2008.

The Starlite Desperation - Take It Personally
Courtesy of Infrasonic Sound Recording Co., an epic 12 song roller
coaster through the repressed and murderous memories of gated beach
community child actors, desert real estate vampire parents, entertainment
biz drug czars, and the redeeming twin powers of Music and Love to heal a
mess even as bad as this. With three full-lengths behind them, Take It
Personally may, in fact, be The Starlite Desperationıs most writhe-able disc
ever. Available on CD and limited edition vinyl.

Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and Jeremy Michael Ward
The self-titled collaborative album between OMAR RODRIGUEZ LOPEZ (of THE MARS VOLTA) and his late band mate, JEREMY MICHAEL WARD, will come as
something of a departure for fans of Rodriguez Lopez's vast catalog of rock-oriented albums. Originally recorded in 2001, after the dissolution of
AT THE DRIVE-IN and prior to the "Tremulant" EP which would announce the arrival of THE MARS VOLTA to the world at large, the Rodriguez- Lopez/Ward
collaboration is a playful, abstract concoction of manipulated sounds and processed, unrecognizable recordings of household objects, everyday
activities, passing dialog, and similar ephemera.
