The upcoming release of the Mars Volta’s ninth studio album has been unconventional to say the least. In the wake of its title - 'Lucro Sucio; Los Ojos del Vacio' - leaking early online, the band performed the album in full during a support slot for Deftones last month. Meanwhile, a pirated copy of said album somehow appears to be in circulation amongst the Volta fan community. It’s something of a marketing strategist’s nightmare…
Compounding that further, the band’s frontman, Cedric Bixler-Zavala has now seemingly, on a whim, handed a burnt CD-R of the upcoming record to a food delivery rider.
