- Cygnus… Vismund Cygnus (from 2005’s Frances the Mute) The song opens so quietly, so blanketed in top-end, that, back in 2005, you probably thought FYE sold you a defective copy – or that maybe your six-disc changer was on the fritz.
- Tetragrammaton (from 2006’s Amputechture) Bixler-Zavala left behind long-form concepts – at least briefly – with the Mars Volta’s third LP. But that didn’t stop him from exploring some deranged ideas, like the story of (possible) demonic possession at the core of 16-minute epic Tetragrammaton.
- Eriatarka (from 2003’s De-Loused in the Comatorium) Aggressive triplet chords kick off De-Loused’s emotional anchor, and they appear throughout in the choruses, paired with some of Theodore’s most intricate, bombastic drumming.
- Viscera Eyes (from 2006’s Amputechture) It’s rare for two famous musicians to mesh without clashing egos or industry meddling, but Rodríguez-López developed a beautifully organic bond with Frusciante.
