In 2022, the Mars Volta ended a decade-long hiatus with a self-titled LP that moved them into a more tropical zone of soft rock, jazz, funk, and Latin. A year later, they offered up Que Dios Te Maldiga Mi Corazón, an acoustic re-imagining of that same album. Described by guitarist Omar Alfredo Rodríguez-López as their version of a folk record, the stripped-down arrangements lean more heavily on the El Paso band’s Latin and Caribbean roots. Though unplugged, it is after all a Mars Volta album and therefore not without a progressive bent and plenty of experimental flourishes. Filling the gaps between the primary palette of nylon-stringed guitar, piano, and double bass are dark-toned pump organs, vibraphones, flutes, and all manner of clattering percussion, delivered with the eccentric flair on which the band has built its reputation. One added benefit of going acoustic is more breathing room for vocalist Cedric Bixler-Zavala, who eagerly fills up the space, sliding nimbly between English and Spanish over arrangements that only elevate his crisp, high tenor. The “unplugged version” has become a common trope in rock music; more often than not, it appears as a listless bid to extend a parent album’s commercial lifespan for another year or two. Que Dios Te Maldiga Mi Corazón, while quite possibly achieving that aim, feels like something more fully realized and artful, and carries more weight than a mere catalog curiosity. ― Allmusic
