Apocalypse Inside Of An Orange

The debut solo album from The Mars Volta's Omar Rodriguez Lopez. Previously only available on vinyl, The Apocalypse Inside Of An Orange is part of a series of albums written while Rodriguez Lopez was living in Amsterdam in 2005. As the name on the album implies, the tracks included are performed by the Omar Rodriguez Lopez Quintet (as opposed to the Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group), the band that toured Europe in late 2005, which includes bassist Juan Aldrete de la Pena, keyboardist Money Mark Ramos-Nishita, horn player/percussionist Adrian Terrazas Gonzalez, and drummer/percussionist Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez. The album features seven new tracks as well as a previously unreleased version of the song Jacob Van Lennepkade that first appeared on Rodriguez Lopez's self-titled (a.k.a. Dutch) album in 2005.
