The Mars Volta: Play Goliath The Soothsayer

Omar Rodriguez Lopez (guitar, producer) was in a curio shop in Jerusalem when he found the Soothsayer, an archaic Ouija-style "talking board." Had he known at that moment that the board's history stretched far beyond its novelty appearance, that its very fibers were soaked through with something terribly other, that the choral death and desire of a multi-headed Goliath was waiting behind its gates...well, he might have left it at rest there on the dusty shelves.

Play Goliath The Soothsayer to uncover the dark story that inspired the Mars Volta to produce their latest album, The Bedlam in Goliath.
