Whoever taught the members of Zechs Marquise to play their instruments should be given an award. ‘Getting Paid’ is pure prog rock genius and we don’t even have to take hits of acid to enjoy the eurphoria. Just listening to ‘Getting Paid’ will take you to happy land with its mathematical time signatures, guitar noodling, and drumming extraordinaire. Members of Zechs also play in Mars Volta, but unlike MV, Zechs won’t put you to sleep, and their musical transitions are saturated with anticipation. Depending on your fancy for vocally driven songs ‘Getting Paid’ could either be the next love of your life, or just a short fling, but either way fans of talent and not top 40 shit have something to jam for next years Burning Man.
