The Mars Volta's fifth studio album, ‘Octahedron’, will be released June 22 on Mercury Records.

The band have confirmed two London shows to support the album’s release, the first of which is at the ICA on June 18, followed by a special outdoor show at Somerset House on July 13.

‘Octahedron’ follows up last year's release ‘The Bedlam In Goliath’, which featured ‘Wax Simulacra’, the track that took Best Hard Rock Performance honours at the recent
51st Annual Grammy Awards.
