"Jam" band Zechs Marquise has been receiving a decent amount of buzz lately now that they are on their first extensive tour. Fronted by Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez (yes, Omar's little brother, you can already tell that this is going to be great) on drums, the bands overall vibe is much like that of a Mars Volta side project. The sound is all about one main groove, and jamming with it, manipulating it and slowly building to a climax without much change.
Chase Scene is built around a throbbing bass line that acts as the foundation to which all other instruments stem off of. The band takes that funky groove from the bass or drums, depending of the track, and proceeds to fuck with it resulting in a good length jam. There's also plenty of great sound manipulation for those who miss the late Jeremy Ward.
Sounds Like
Frances era Mars volta jam sessions minus Cedric
