Amazed so few people in the comments have pointed this out yet, but this is only Miranda for the first 9:40 or so. The loud part that starts right there is the beginning of Cassandra Gemini (which continues until the end of the album).
+DearestClaudio actually, according to Wikipedia: "The finalized track listing had five tracks and was intended to be released as such on all formats. Because of disputes with Universal Records, 'Cassandra Gemini' (listed as 'Cassandra Geminni' on most versions of the album) was arbitrarily split into eight tracks on the CD version, taking up tracks 5 through 12, since the band would otherwise only be paid an EP's wages for a 5 track album. The splits also were not done according to the song's actual five movements. On digital music stores such as Amazon.com and iTunes Store, 'Cassandra Gemini' appears as a single track."
And Wikipedia's right, as when you look at the digital versions of the album, "Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" is about 13 minutes and "Cassandra Gemini" is around 32 minutes.
How the hell can any music be this good??? I absolutely LOVE this album! I must have listened to it at least 100 times by now! I am just blown away every single time I hear it... I can't get enough of this album, and I especially love this segment. Its so cool how the whole album runs together like one piece, and even the ending is the beginning. Amazing. Thanks for putting it up, man!
Lmao. ^^ first time i heard this shit was in 2005 to. xP i was 8 years old, Shit, my dad would always play this shit pounding. i was scared. lmao now. im 17 and listen to this in the dark, alone. Eating grapefruit. ha i'm just in love with this band. (:
"There was a frail syrup dripping off His lap danced lapel, punctuated by her Decrepit prowl she washed down the hatching Gizzard soft as a mane of needles His orifice icicles hemorrhaged By combing her torso to a pile Perspired the trophy shelves made room for his collapse She was a mink hand job in sarcophagus heels" Fucking ELITE lyrics.
Because when Pour Another Icepick starts (9:39), it is actually Cassandra Gemini starting, and the start of Miranda is a bit cut. Miranda lasts 13 minutes.
At 14:30 is Part C, if anyone was looking for just that part (like me). Imo it's the best part if you don't have the time to listen to the whole thing.
As some people have already pointed out, "Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" ends at 9:40. This is proven by Wikipedia, the band's website, and most digital versions of the album.
It's about time someone uploaded this. I think it my be mixed with pieces of Cassandra Gemini, but the organization of this wonderful album confuses me to no extent, so I can't be 100% sure... :/
the bass line is pretty much the same :) slightly different rhythm but it basically feels and sounds the same. Kc has less of the typical mars volta sounds in the background and it obviously sounds like an older recording though.
First time I heard this album was actually on the day when it was released back in 2005. I was 16 back then. Just imagine what kind of an experience a teenage boy had when he heard this monster. Did I mention I finally met Omar in August this year? :D
I wanted to see the picture with dude's arm sticking out of the window, it says so much more. I know "Who the fuck" am i ??? Greatest Mars Volta album BY FAR. So much emotion and creativity. Their undeniable peak. Their first one is great too.
Wait... Okay, so I checked out the Mars Volta website, to try and prove you otherwise, and this comment had just proven to me that Parts B-D ARE part of Cassandra Gemini due to some kind of issues. Had they not been split up, it wouldn't qualify as an LP, because the album would have had 4 tracks, which isn't really LP material. ...Which makes no fucking sense to me, but I apologize for this. I'm relatively new to Mars Volta and haven't really read up on 'em.
What I belive happened here was that the uploader was using A-Z Lyrics to gauge when each motion starts and ends, and it classifies what should be Pour Another Icepick as Vade Necum and starts Cassandra as Pour Another Icepick
No, it really is. The parts listed in this song are all part of the Miranda series, as shown on the track listing from the album. I do not own the album, but various images searched for in Google may back me up. I've also seen one image with the time slots for each various piece. Adding up all the time slots for A-D total up to 13 minutes, but the video has an extra 11 minutes, and I believe said image was proven to have 24 minutes totaled up. However, this shouldn't really fucking matter.
The Mars Volta and any connected record labels. This music can be purchased on iTunes, Amazon or the Mars Volta's webpage. ........................fuck ill just download it !!!!!!!!!
Incorrect. Cassandra Gemini's lyrics start with "You can't bend your crooked arms or fold your punctured proof." This is Part A of Cassandra Gemini called "Tarantism". The part at 9:39 is Part B of Miranda, which is called "Pour Another Icepick".
Swinging razors crowd this slaughter mansion. I feel I’m next in line. My turn to dine with divine. And as truth loses apprehension. I can now become time.
Though I’ll be back sooner or later. To hide in the darkest crevice of your mind. To toil and make you mine. Cry cry cry cry cry. Please just do t stain my shrine.
on my pressing "Miranda that ghost just isn't holy anymore" has 4 parts and "Cassandra gemini" (actually Cassandra gemiNNI on my CD) has only 5 parts, i really don't why. i fixed the thing right away on my iTunes library though, i just keep wondering if Miranda lasts 13min or 24min? :o
"Había un frágil jarabe goteando Su solapa bailaba en el regazo, puntuada por ella. Merodear decrépito ella lavó la eclosión Molleja suave como una melena de agujas Los carámbanos de su orificio sangraron. Peinando su torso hasta formar un montón Transpirados, los estantes de trofeos hicieron espacio para su colapso. Ella era una paja de visón con tacones de sarcófago"
I thought I was going crazy or my arithmetic turned to shit, because the minutes weren't adding up. But I realize that the ending of Part A was shortened! WHY? If you were gonna upload all four tracks together, then do it properly ffs!
Amazed so few people in the comments have pointed this out yet, but this is only Miranda for the first 9:40 or so. The loud part that starts right there is the beginning of Cassandra Gemini (which continues until the end of the album).
+David Vaughan The whole of Miranda comprises 4 parts - 9:40 is when "b. Pour Another Icepick" starts. It's still classified as the same song.
+DearestClaudio actually, according to Wikipedia: "The finalized track listing had five tracks and was intended to be released as such on all formats.

They tell stories within an album, rather than in each song.
yea right but i see the C side of the record as a whole song , so i get why the uploader did this ..
How the hell can any music be this good??? I absolutely LOVE this album! I must have listened to it at least 100 times by now! I am just blown away every single time I hear it... I can't get enough of this album, and I especially love this segment. Its so cool how the whole album runs together like one piece, and even the ending is the beginning. Amazing. Thanks for putting it up, man!
"Are you lost, traveler?"
I love The Mars Volta!!! n always will...!!! Best band ever...!!! ❤❤❤❤❤💋💋💋🚬🚬❤❤
Most of this is Cassandra Gemini... Miranda ends at 9:39.
This album still sounds fresh and powerful
Some of the best and darkest lyrics I've ever heard, yet beautiful
Do none of you see the common theme in these combined songs? There is a reason it sounds so great together ❤
I know tgis band is an absolute eargasm
Lmao. ^^ first time i heard this shit was in 2005 to. xP i was 8 years old, Shit, my dad would always play this shit pounding. i was scared. lmao now. im 17 and listen to this in the dark, alone. Eating grapefruit. ha i'm just in love with this band. (:
-.-
What. .____.
and you're still 8 years old Angelica Guzman
im 17
I was your current age when I first heard this. Damn I feel old.
"There was a frail syrup dripping off
His lap danced lapel, punctuated by her
Decrepit prowl she washed down the hatching
Gizzard soft as a mane of needles
His orifice icicles hemorrhaged
By combing her torso to a pile
Perspired the trophy shelves made room for his collapse
She was a mink hand job in sarcophagus heels"
Fucking ELITE lyrics.
Goodbye... Vinny...
best album ever made 100% sure
Because when Pour Another Icepick starts (9:39), it is actually Cassandra Gemini starting, and the start of Miranda is a bit cut. Miranda lasts 13 minutes.
I actually became aware of that right after I made this video. Regardless, it's still an amazing piece that should be shared!
The feel of steel steals the reels and I dive headfirst into the abyss that has no end.
At 14:30 is Part C, if anyone was looking for just that part (like me). Imo it's the best part if you don't have the time to listen to the whole thing.
As some people have already pointed out, "Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" ends at 9:40. This is proven by Wikipedia, the band's website, and most digital versions of the album.
On the way down all I hear is laughter! Laughter
God this is so unbelievably amazing
This album is one of the best albums ever
So fucking fantastic
Wow... what a trip
_"Are you lost?"_
I can't feel
"I am real, aren't I?"
"Tell me I am real!"
"Can you feel.. pain?"
context?? i wanna know please...
As I finally hit the ground I punch through with no sound, piercing the ground. Driving me deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper…….
It's so heartbreaking
It's about time someone uploaded this. I think it my be mixed with pieces of Cassandra Gemini, but the organization of this wonderful album confuses me to no extent, so I can't be 100% sure... :/
8:35 Well that sounds like Easy Money by King Crimson... Still love the Mars Volta :)
the bass line is pretty much the same :) slightly different rhythm but it basically feels and sounds the same. Kc has less of the typical mars volta sounds in the background and it obviously sounds like an older recording though.
Wow, it took me way too long to discover this.
Never to late friend
And life breathes into inanimate effigy’s. Who smile like a waxing crescent on the verge of total darkness. They’ve been here before.
First time I heard this album was actually on the day when it was released back in 2005. I was 16 back then. Just imagine what kind of an experience a teenage boy had when he heard this monster.
Did I mention I finally met Omar in August this year? :D
I was 14 and tripping hard on lsd so yeah I can imagine
Listened to this for the first time last year, when I was 14. Took me down a whole path of discovery, not been the same person since
How was that? Omar is such a mistery for me
I wanted to see the picture with dude's arm sticking out of the window, it says so much more. I know "Who the fuck" am i ??? Greatest Mars Volta album BY FAR. So much emotion and creativity. Their undeniable peak. Their first one is great too.
Thanks.
Love the outro so much I could die for
Love the whole song
Wait... Okay, so I checked out the Mars Volta website, to try and prove you otherwise, and this comment had just proven to me that Parts B-D ARE part of Cassandra Gemini due to some kind of issues.

However, this shouldn't really fucking matter.
His voice in part B when he says "There was a frail syrup dripping off his lap danced lapel..." is similar to Cad Bane's voice from Clone Wars.
+Jesuit Sphagnum Reminds me of Tom Waits

de lo mejor que he escuchado en mi vida
Swinging razors crowd this slaughter mansion. I feel I’m next in line. My turn to dine with divine. And as truth loses apprehension. I can now become time.
Wanderer...
Pedazo de canción, la puta madre!
Though I’ll be back sooner or later. To hide in the darkest crevice of your mind. To toil and make you mine. Cry cry cry cry cry. Please just do t stain my shrine.
fucking right, i like the eagle screeching sound Omar makes at around 16:38. this is the greatest rock album in my opinion.
That's cedric
i dont know if they're singing lyrics or words because if its lyrics then i dont get them.....but whichever it is it sounds fucking great
There is a supervisor at work named Miranda and this song has a whole new meaning.
on my pressing "Miranda that ghost just isn't holy anymore" has 4 parts and "Cassandra gemini" (actually Cassandra gemiNNI on my CD) has only 5 parts, i really don't why. i fixed the thing right away on my iTunes library though, i just keep wondering if Miranda lasts 13min or 24min? :o
"Había un frágil jarabe goteando
Su solapa bailaba en el regazo, puntuada por ella.
Merodear decrépito ella lavó la eclosión
Molleja suave como una melena de agujas
Los carámbanos de su orificio sangraron.
Peinando su torso hasta formar un montón
Transpirados, los estantes de trofeos hicieron espacio para su colapso.
Ella era una paja de visón con tacones de sarcófago"
11:35 my fav part
THIS was awsome
Easily one of the most brilliant progressive rock albums ever created. Francis The Mute.
I thought I was going crazy or my arithmetic turned to shit, because the minutes weren't adding up. But I realize that the ending of Part A was shortened! WHY? If you were gonna upload all four tracks together, then do it properly ffs!
This is church to me. Realignment with horror, death and decay. I’ve assembled my noose. And I’m ready…..
If I’m being completely honest, I would rather live the words you’ve spoken then spend another millisecond as this monstrosity they call me.
Que disparate, es fantastico!
9:39!!!
can you make this available on mobile plz
JOFUA
SAD!
Oh my god, I care. If you have nothing good to say, zip it.
