"The previous iteration of the band thrived at the border of brilliant and unhinged, and The Mars Volta is too conventional to be called their best work. But it is certainly their most honest: a sober tale written by survivors, the first uneasy step into unfamiliar territory".

"This isn't just a striking return for one of the most individual bands of the last 20 years; it is, musically, an astounding masterpiece. Their finest hour? Quite possibly".

"Vi anerkender altid modet til at finde og træde nye stier, men intentionen og Cedrics personlige fortælling er bare ikke nok til at holde gejsten oppe på en plade, der drukner i middelmådighed - men hvis Omar har mere inspiration til at holde bandet i live, så er det om ikke andet svært at forestille sig andet end, at det kun kan blive bedre end denne forglemmelige affære".

"Enjoyment of The Mars Volta ultimately comes down to what the listener feels is the group's purpose. Is it to continue honing and refining the post-hardcore prog-rock sound that defined the Mars Volta Phase 1.0? Or is it a vehicle for artistic expression, able to encompass whatever might be on the minds and in the ears of its members in the here and now? Fans of the former will likely leave this album disappointed, though I'm sure the reunion tour shows will be stellar. Fans of the latter, though, will be pleased to discover the group firing on all cylinders, even if those cylinders are serving the smoothest ride of their career".
