Cedric Bixler-Zavala has sent a number of tweets today that confirm he is no longer a part of experimental rock group The Mars Volta.
Bixler-Zavala formed the band in 2001 with bandmate Omar Rodríguez-López in the wake of At the Drive-In's disbandment. The Mars Volta announced a hiatus in September 2012, with Rodríguez-López wanting to concentrate on his new band, Bosnian Rainbows.

But Bosnian Rainbows was what we all got instead. I can't sit here and pretend any more. I no longer am a member of Mars Volta. (cont-)
