Noctourniquet

Noctourniquet is the sixth studio album by American progressive rock band The Mars Volta, released on March 26, 2012 on Warner Bros. Produced by guitarist and songwriter Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, it is the band's only studio album to feature drummer Deantoni Parks, their first not to include contributions from guitarist John Frusciante, and their last to include bassist Juan Alderete. Inspired by the children's nursery rhyme "Solomon Grundy", and the Greek myth of Hyacinthus, Noctourniquet is a concept album. Following the album's release, The Mars Volta broke up due to ongoing tension and disagreements between core members Rodriguez-Lopez and lyricist Cedric Bixler-Zavala. As a result, Noctourniquet became the final studio album of the band's initial run. In 2019, the band reunited in secret, releasing its first studio album in ten years, The Mars Volta, in 2022.
