    I would suggest checking out The Fall of Troy as well. definitely "math rock" (odd time and really technical). If you can get your hands on an album, go for it. The two two that I have are Doppelganger and Manipulator. They impress me, but are not as "epic" as The Mars Volta or Coheed. Not even close. But, they have some really nice rhythms and guitar patterns. They have videos on YouTube, but all of them suck as far as sound. Overall, the singer reminds me of a cross between cedric from mars volta and claudio from coheed with a little more screaming. Enough already, just go buy it.
    Also, which Mars Volta have you been listening to lately?

    But it is very, very, epic.
