Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Interview: The Mars Volta & Bosnian Rainbows

“It’s loud in there,” says Omar Rodriguez-Lopez in a dark alley behind the Troubadour.

His immediate task: to find a quiet place to do this interview. “Do you guys know the area?” he asks, peaking around the dimly-lit street corner.
