At the Drive-In

At the Drive-In is an American post-hardcore band from El Paso, Texas, formed in 1993. Consisting of singer Cedric Bixler-Zavala, guitarists Jim Ward and Omar Rodríguez-López, bassist Paul Hinojos, and drummer Tony Hajjar, the band released three studio albums and five EPs before breaking up in 2001. Their final album, 2000's Relationship of Command, received a number of accolades and is cited as a landmark of the post-hardcore genre. Following the breakup, Bixler-Zavala and Rodríguez-López formed The Mars Volta while Ward, Hinojos, and Hajjar formed Sparta. At the Drive-In reunited in January 2012 and played the 2012 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, as well as the 2012 Lollapalooza Festival, but have no plans to record any new material in the future. more »

T-minus ten seconds and counting
Ten seconds to counting
T-minus ten seconds and counting
Ten seconds to go
T-minus ten seconds to counting

Metronome charisma
Keeping time
In sling shot tempo

Utopia the landfill crawls
Omens that back the truth
Erase the veins of this dateline
As it tells the story
Of this Roman fracture
Space time cliché

I can't believe
The feeble recipe
Civilization tastes so good 
Nero has conquered the stars
No one ever saw the spacesuit togas
A wreath around the head
Like Saturn's rings

Stole your recipe
The ghostship cemetery
We won't lie

T-minus ten seconds and counting
Ten seconds to go
T-minus 

Utopia the landfill crawls
Omens that back the truth
Erase the veins of this dateline
As it tells the story
Of this roman fracture
Space time cliché

I can't believe
Et tu Brute unfolding
Under the breath
Under the fall Caligula time warp
Decadence in fleets come rain-storming
Under threats of gluttony and lies

Stole your recipe
The ghostship cemetery
We won't lie
