El Grupo Nuevo De Omar Rodriguez Lopez

Omar Rodriguez Lopez is a man who apparently never sleeps, belongs to more bands than Dave Grohl, and can be used as a brillo pad if you turn him upside down and run him across the floor. Aside from all of those amazing facts, he is finally releasing Cryptomnesia, which is the first release in a series of three albums recorded in 2006. The album’s lineup is quite impressive and includes Zach Hill (HELLA) on drums, Jonathan Hischke (HELLA) on synth bass, and Juan Alderete de la Peña (THE MARS VOLTA) on bass guitar. Aside from those players, Cryptomnesia features the vocals of Cedric Bixler Zavala on eight of the album’s eleven tracks.

Check out the trailer below, and get ready for this bad boy to drop.
