De Facto! Megaton Shotblast (2001)














De Facto was...

Cedric Bixler-Zavala
Omar Rodríguez-López
Jeremy Michael Ward (Died May 2003)
Isaiah "Ikey" Owens

Spawned from jam sessions that followed At the Drive-In shows, the musical explorations here by Bixler-Zavala and Rodriguez-Lopez evolved into their current project The Mars Volta. Megaton Shotblast is a beautiful example of experimental dub music infused with electronica, latin, salsa and jazz.

Hailed by many as one of the best albums of 2002 for its revitalization of rock music, this album was "recorded by Carney in a stormy Midwestern basement. The density of the Akron air is perfectly translated through each and every pore of this album."
