Holy Sh*t! The Mars Volta Are Reuniting & It Looks Like New Music Is Coming

Well we officially need to to de-louse our pants in the comatorium because Cedric Bixler-Zavala just confirmed that The Mars Volta reunion is a bloody GOER.
The muso has been dropping cryptic breadcrumbs of info on Twitter hinting at a potential comeback but today he served up a full blown bombshell; responding to a fan who wrote “I dream with you guys giving TMV a new chapter,” Bixler-Zavala replied: “It’s happening.”

PB = PB || {};
gptAds = PB.gptAds || {};
var opts = {“asBool”:false,”adUnit”:”/4403/ev/musicfeeds_intl/ros”,”adDiv”:”ros_300x250_p_slot7″,”sizeStr”:”[[300, 250]]”,”mapping”:[{“viewport”:”[0, 0]”,”sizes”:”[]”},{“viewport”:”[750, 0]”,”sizes”:”[[300, 250]]”},{“viewport”:”[980, 0]”,”sizes”:”[[300, 250]]”}],”targeting”:{“pos”:”P”,”content_detail”:”0″,”kw”:”in-article”,”coppa”:”0″,”site”:”musicfeeds_intl”},”resize”:false,”autoRefresh”:false};
PB.waitForAS = (opts.asBool) ? true : PB.waitForAS || false;

PB.evGPTBuilder.enqueueAd(opts);

PB = PB || {};
PB.gptStandAlone = PB.gptStandAlone || {};
PB.gptAutoRefresh = PB.gptAutoRefresh || {‘gptAds’:[], ‘gptStandAlone’:[]};

googletag.cmd.push(function() {
var standAloneSizeMapping = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([0, 0], [[300, 250]]).addSize([750, 0], []).addSize([980, 0], []).build(); PB.gptStandAlone[‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1558861302’] = googletag.defineSlot(‘/4403/ev/musicfeeds_intl/ros’, [[300, 250]], ‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1558861302’)
.defineSizeMapping(standAloneSizeMapping) .addService(googletag.pubads())
.setTargeting(‘pos’, ‘A’).setTargeting(‘content_detail’, ‘0’).setTargeting(‘kw’, ‘in-article-mobile’).setTargeting(‘coppa’, ‘0’).setTargeting(‘site’, ‘musicfeeds_intl’);
googletag.enableServices();
googletag.display(‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1558861302’);
googletag.pubads().refresh([PB.gptStandAlone[‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1558861302’]]);

});

IT’S HAPPENING.
AND, it seems, new music is also on the way!
Responding to another fan who asked if Volta would ever consider doing a De-Loused In The Comatorium tour, CBZ responded: “We are in the kitchen finding new ways to through curve balls”.
…Which was after he previously revealed that he’d entered the studio with Mars Volta bandmate Omar Rodríguez-López, AKA “Puerto Rican Bernie Sanders”:

Man !!!! WTF ! I miss their bikini kill opening slot then I find out they played a wrestling event last night!?! To be fair I was in the studio working on music w the Puerto Rican Bernie Sanders. https://t.co/7pVE8vsLLw

The last time we heard new Mars Volta music was back in 2012 when they released their last album, Noctourniquet. They then broke up the next year after Bixler-Zavala and Rodríguez-López had a falling out.
But that all seems to be water under the bridge now (especially considering they’ve teamed up plenty of times since with Antemasque and At-the Drive-In).
Now all we need is an Australian tour and we’ll be SET.
Splendour In The Grass 2020 anyone?

It’s happening
