10. Old Money
Omar
Rodriguez Lopez's Old Money is the first album that The Mars Volta
guitarist/producer/writer/arranger will release with Stones Throw
Records.
The addictive melodies and passionate execution of
each performance render Old Money perhaps the most accessible of his
non-Volta recordings, and the perfect entry point to anyone not yet
familiar with what this prolific artist has to offer.
The
album fits comfortably between the guitarist's monumental work with The
Mars Volta, and his prior rock-based solo releases. Loosely based on
the concept of exploitative industrialists and, well, their old money,
the album presents a 10-track collection of concise rock compositions,
which range from progressive to psychedelic to downright funky. Many of
these sounds could easily be at home on a Volta record.
This
historical, though thoroughly modern, discourse ensures that this
release fits perfectly within the ever expanding Stones Throw Records'
catalogue. This album serves as an interesting new chapter in the same
book that houses Madlib's interplanetary ramblings, Gary Wilson's
recurring adolescent nightmares and The Stark Reality's fuzzy
children's stories: all Mars Volta favorites.
