Omar Rodriguez Lopez, of Mars Volta and At The Drive In, released his new solo album, Old Money, online on Monday. Although this is his eighth solo album, it is his first release with Stones Throw Records, according to Spin.com. The 10-track CD and Vinyl versions of the album will be released on Jan. 27.

Jambase said that Rodriguez-Lopez “hinted” the album began as a follow up to the 2006 Mars Volta album, Amputechture, but then he changed his musical direction and Spin Magazine said a statement revealed “the music didn’t mesh with singer Cedric Bixler-Zavala’s vocals.”

You can buy the album online for $9.99 at Stones Throw Records

Tracklist for Old Money

  1. “The Power of Myth”
  2. “How To Bill the Bilderberg Group”
  3. “Population Council’s Wet Dream”
  4. “Private Fortunes”
  5. “Trilateral Commission As Dinner Guests”
