System shows no sign of metal fatigue: Band joins The Mars Volta for
Rexall concert in September
Sandra Sperounes, The Edmonton Journal
EDMONTON - Two of rock's most adventurous acts, System Of A Down and
The Mars Volta, will be sharing a stage on Sept. 20 at Rexall Place.
System's latest acrobatic, Armenian-flavoured masterpiece, Mezmerize,
debuted at the top of the U.S. Billboard charts in May.
The L.A. group, led by Serj Tankian, will release another album,
Hypnotize, in the fall.
The Mars Volta's new effort, Francis the Mute, is no less ambitious.
It's an explosive mix of prog-rock, jazz and psychedelia.
Tickets are $39.50, $47.50 and $55.50 (plus service charges). They'll
go on sale 10 a.m. Friday at Ticketmaster.
w In other music news, Pretty Girls Make Graves will shovel up some
punk on Saturday, Aug. 13, at the Starlite Room.
The Seattle musicians, named after one of Morrissey's dour lyrics,
are fronted by a pretty girl with a poppy voice -- Andrea Zollo. They
have two full-length albums to their name -- 2002's Good Health and
2003's The New Romance.
Tickets are $15 (plus service charges) and will go on sale Wednesday
at Ticketmaster.
