What their label says...

Recorded in Mexico, 'Xenophanes' is the first album which finds Omar at the helm vocally and lyrically, as well as musically. Sung entirely in Spanish, Xenophanes showcases a side of Omar rarely seen before, truly distinguishing this album from its myriad predecessors. Equal parts Mars Volta bombast, El Grupo Nuevo technicality, and a textural richness unequaled on prior solo releases, 'Xenophanes' is a concept album, that tells a story about a character's journey through life, death and re-birth. In order to execute the emotionally-charged compositions on 'Xenophanes', Rodriguez Lopez again enlists his veteran co-conspirators: bassist Juan Alderete de la Peña, drummer Thomas Pridgen and keyboardist/percussionist Marcel Rodriguez Lopez. Also the album includes contributions from Mark Aanderud (keyboards), as well as the notable voice of Ximena Sariñana, doubling and backing Rodriguez Lopez's vocals. 'Xenophanes' is a triumph of imagination and an inspired, concise statement.
