Texan post-hardcore greats At The Drive-In, a furious and galvanizing live force in their day, are back together and playing a bunch of festivals this summer, including Coachella this weekend. Before the big shows start, though, they’re playing a quick run of warm-up shows in their home state. The first one went down last night at Red 7 in Austin. Below, we’ve got videos of them playing “Quarantined,” “Enfilade,” and “One Armed Scissor.”

Too bad about the audio on “One Armed Scissor,” but that looks fun as hell. Also, thanks to Michael_ for pointing out an L.A. Weekly story in which the band claims that they’re back together because they wanted to play together, not because of the money they were offered, and that the reunion is open-ended.

omar looks so into it.
Apparently his ma passed away recently, so it’s understandable if he’s still bummed.

Sunday can’t come soon enough, although I have to admit: Aside from Cedric jumping around, the rest of the band just seems to be standing there and playing… just like the old days. Speaking of which, how come Cedric isn’t yelling at people to stop moshing?
Thought the same thing. I guess its easier to be tolerant of such things when you’re “doing it for the money.”
After 10 years of confounding Mars Volta songs, the fans finally listened?
This vid sums up the night perfectly:
