Eriatarka - The Mars Volta

Similar rhythm in the middle of Passionflower and the verses of Eriatarka, and some similar lead guitar parts here and there.

My favourite things about this song are:

  1. the overall feeling of the verses
  2. the intense energy - chaotic and organized at the same time - of the chorus
  3. the feedback cresendos during the verses, fitting well with the beautiful guitar line


Eriatarka was suggested by Andrew B. in response to Jon Gomm's Passionflower.

It reminded Jacob of Jethro Tull's Pibroch (Cap in Hand).
