Wiretap Scars
This is what At the Drive-In was supposed to evolve to: a more mature, melodic sound. But they split up. Cedric says he worked with truly talented musicians (Paul, Tony and Jim), but they just weren't creative enough. You can tell the differences between Cedric and Omar and the rest of the group: they stand out, they go crazy, and they have sick afros. Anyway, just before ATDI was gonna hit it big and start a revolution, they broke up, and I'm glad they did.

are you trying to say atd-i were supposed to evolve to what sparta are now?
if thank fuck they broke up. sparta are bollock. boring bollock at that
tmv are far superior. better musically and creativly.

nah, not really, i just saw this review for wiretap scars, and thought its complete bollocks. just wanted to see what other atd-i/sparta fans out there think.

[Stephen]

ah ok. well my view on the above review. shiteeeee
then again that is just my opinion.

Before ATDi were emo/something else or what ever, but then they broke up and Sparta are emo and TMV are something else...

I havent heard Sparta, and don't want to.

you might have wanted to say it was a review..or put it in quote box. but that is bollocks, whilst i do kind of like sparta, at the drive in were far superior...i'm not sure what they would have done next if they hadn't broken up..probably imploded into a wonderous cacaphony of noise and afros...but 'relationship of command' is a step forwards for anyone, whereas 'wiretap scars' was a step back for the members involved.

i think sparta are a great band...the album is fantastic and they are brilliant live.
i dont think you can compare any band to atdi...amazing as they were sparta dont resemble them and as far as im aware dont claim to resemble them in any way.
