I made Cedric Bixler Zavala in my The Sims 2 game. I spent like 10 hours on him total.

I'm just shocked I was able to find CC of his unique hairstyle. There is nothing I can do about his eyes not being visible, his whole skull distorts wildly when I try to drag his face down and make his eyes visible, his neck becomes ultra short if I drag his face down anymore, it looks messed up. The hair mesh sits very low.

-pointless Cedricposting no one asked for-

I started listening to The Mars Volta in 2005 when I was in 7th grade. First song I'd ever heard was Cut that City, which prompted me to immediately become obsessed with them, mainly because of Cedric's unbelievable, surreal, gorgeous voice. I just couldn't believe it

anyway before I ever looked up any personal info about the band members, I had this idea that their singer's name was Stanley and looked like a mix between Jon Heder and Owen Wilson:

More like Jon Heder though. And I was just SO SURE his name was gonna be Stanley

I finally looked em up on Yahoo Music and these two were the very first photos I saw of them:

And I thought ??? they're beautiful and what the hell their singer is gorgeous!

and I thought "wh- Cedric Bixler-Zavala is probably the coolest fucking name I've ever heard in my life, of COURSE that's his name, and dude of COURSE he's Latin"

my 7th & 8th grade self was fucking obsessed with this man, like, saving 2000 photos of Cedric to my iPod video and just scrolling through them all multiple times a day. of course saving them off the "Best / Worst Picture of The Mars Volta ??" thread on The Comatorium

at the time (I was very young, obviously, and didn't quite understand the world & people) I was CERTAIN that Volta wasn't just composed of some incredibly talented & creative people-- instead I thought that C & O were "receivers" that heard messages straight from The Source and transformed it into music. Like, their music & lyrics felt so certain, so sure, full confidence in the stories told, like they were receiving religious messages & just transcribing them into music

just a few weeks ago I read an old interview from them &, they said that they, too, felt like they were "receiving" the music from somewhere and just playing & recording it. it was amazing, full circle

Many musicians are considered to be a part of emo despite them not resembling their peers within the genre they apparently share that much. I mean, At The Drive-In are one of these surprising cases, though I must admit I get why they get into the category. Their soundscapes could be seen in the accordance to the sensibility of the style, yet they also have their roots in the punk scene from their surrounding. Of course, their strain of emo eventually evolved into screamo, a distinct variant of the idiom we discuss. While I wouldn't dare to call them as such, the traces of the later brand can be already located there. Still, I ask myslef, had they carried on after Relationship Of Command, would they have been honored by their followers or not?
