New Mars Volta album info leaked!

Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala are having a busy year. Their original band, At The Drive-In, has returned for a series of wildly popular shows, and now details of their upcoming album as side project The Mars Volta have leaked.

Set to release in 2012, the new Mars Volta album is apparently titled Noctourniquet, a combination of the words “nocturne” (a musical composition inspired by the night) and “tourniquet,” a type of bandage used to control bleeding.

Album art is shown as well (although difficult to see behind the reflection of the person snapping the picture): what looks like a pattern of circles over a gradient at a 45-degree angle which somewhat resembles the Earth’s horizon at sunset.

Expect new tour dates from Omar, Cedric, and company–both as At The Drive-In and as The Mars Volta. Stay tuned for information on dates and tickets!
