Sparta

Is anyone else listening to them? I loved ATDI, and I admit I don't really like Mars Volta (too prog rock for me). I picked up the new Sparta CD because I was reading alot of reviews comparing them to young U2 (so of course this had me intrigued). I haven't listened to it enough to pass any final judgements...but I like it so far.

I definitely prefer Sparta than The Mars Volta

the new (Sparta) one is a pretty good rock record

Agreed on all accounts.

That said, I still havent gotten all that into it yet. I'd say it's probably my least favorite of their 3 albums so far. That could just be because of the new guitarist/minor style change, and I may end up liking it more than the others. We shall see.
