Decontruction of a Band

Speaking of At the Drive In - this group has splintered into two different groups.  Cedric Bixlar-Zaval was tired of playing the same music and didn't want the band to be pigeon holed in the category that they were currently in.  He had wanted to do something reminiscent to Pink Floyd but the other member wanted to keep rocking out the way they were. 

 After the break up Jim Ward, Tony Hajjar and Paul Hinojos went off to form Sparta - who ended up being a more traditional alternative group.  Meanwhile Cedric Bixlar-Zaval and Omar Rodriquez Lopez went of to form a progressive rock like group called The Mars Volta.  Later on - Hinojos left Sparta to join The Mars Volta. 

 After all this Jim Ward went and created a side project called Sleepercar and Omar Rodriguez Lopez went and did his own side project as well.  Cedric is in this project as well - it's called Omar Rodriguez Lopez. 

 Cedric can also be found drumming for a many number of groups here and there.

 Here is At the Drive In and then the deconstruction thereof:
