This USB drive, which has a 1 GB memory stick with the full album, "Wax Simulacra" video and album artwork preloaded, will be encased in a wooden Ouija board planchette. Dimensions of the planchette and USB drive are 3 inches high and 1 inch wide. Plug it in, and on the 29th of each month after January, you'll get monthly content updates throughout 2008. This is THE product for the avid Mars Volta fan, keeping you in touch with the band and all their new content well after release date. Monthly content updates include b-sides, live videos, webisodes, exclusive wallpaper, the Goliath The Soothsayer video game, previously unreleased songs, and much, much more.
The genesis of The Mars Volta's new album The Bedlam in Goliath is a tale of long-buried murder victims and their otherworldly influence, of strife and near collapse, of the long hard fight to push "the record that did not want to be born" out into the world. Omar was in a curio shop in Jerusalem when he found the Soothsayer, an archaic Ouija-style "talking board." Had he known at that moment that the board's history stretched far beyond its novelty appearance, that its very fibers were soaked through with something terribly other, that the choral death and desire of a multi-headed Goliath was waiting behind its gates... well, he might have left it at rest there on the dusty shelves. The Upside of That Choice: No bad mojo unleashed. Erase the madness that followed. Erase the bizarre connection to a love/lust/murder triangle that threatened to spill out into the present every time the band let its fingers drift over the board. The Downside: No Soothsayer means The Bedlam in Goliath never would have existed. And it turns out that this demented spiritual black hole of a muse has driven The Mars Volta to produce a crowning moment in their already stellar career. The band names this Ouija board "The Soothsayer", as it offers them a story: It's always about a man, a woman, and her mother. About the lust floating between them. About seduction and infidelity. And pain. And eventually, murder. Entrails and absence and curses and oblivion. To understand the full story....listen to "The Bedlam in Goliath."
