Anything by The Mars Voltafor all the reasons you mention above only with thirty years of musical evolution and all the lovely modern trickery that goes with it.
Omar Rodriguez-Lopez is like Hendrix reborn with a healthy dose of Bitches Brew John McLaughlin and Woodstock-era Carlos Santana thrown in and a politely doffed cap to Sid Barret and David Gilmour.
Cedric Bixler-Zavala sings like Geddy Lee crossbred with the host of the seraphim with all of the improvisational, cut-and-paste madness of William Burroughs.
Their session musicians tend to be the cream of the los angeles progressive/alternative rock movement including John Frusciante and Flea of RHCP.
Utterly, uttterly amazing band.
