OMAR AND CEDRIC: IF THIS EVER GETS WEIRD - A film by NICOLAS JACK DAVIES
Since their explosive breakout album in 2000, At the Drive-In— and then as their next incarnation, The Mars Volta— have fearlessly redefined the progressive rock genre. Fronted by Omar Rodríguez-López and Cedric Bixler-Zavala, two outsiders from El Paso, their unique style seamlessly fused jazz, punk rock, latin influences and experimental sounds into something utterly electrifying. But their immense artistic success gave way to deep personal fissures that ended their musical partnership in 2013, and inflicted wounds that would take more than a decade to heal. Culled from hundreds of hours of footage filmed by Omar over the past 40 years, OMAR AND CEDRIC: IF THIS EVER GETS WEIRD charts the duo’s intense and profound journey as they navigate success, addiction, tragedy, betrayal, forgiveness and, ultimately, redemption.

Me and a friend of mine loved ATDI in high school and as we matured we loved Volta as well. To see all of this hilarious and emotional behind the scenes footage really brought things home for me. I absolutely loved it and bought it. Theres also the lore behind Cassandra Gemini finally explained which was reallllly cool to hear. Critic snobs stay away...unless you grew up with it - you dont understand :)

It’s good. I wish the packaging was a little more professionally made and some bonus features would have been nice considering they didn’t speak on the last 3 albums before the break up. Seems like there is a lot they could have added after hearing how much footage was taken over the years. Definitely worth watching if you’re a fan either way.
