Notes
"Se Dice Bisonte, No Búfalo" (meaning "It's Called Bison, Not Buffalo" in English) is the third solo album by Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and the second part of his informal "Amsterdam cycle," a series that Omar recorded in 2005 while residing in the Netherlands:
(1) Omar Rodriguez CD/LP (Willie Anderson Recordings, 2005)
(3) The Apocalypse Inside Of An Orange CD/2×LP by Omar Rodriguez Lopez Quintet (Infrasonic Sound, 2007)
(4) Calibration (Is Pushing Luck And Key Too Far) CD/2×LP (Nitrous Oxide Records, 2007/08)
Most of the album's material was composed and recorded in November 2005, when Rodriguez Lopez shared his time between Dutch Wisseloord Studios and SST Records in Long Beach, California. He worked with the same core group of musicians that toured in Europe as Omar Rodriguez Lopez Quintet to support his self-titled CD, including Adrián Terrazas González on woodwinds, Omar's younger brother Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez on drums/percussion and synthesizers, and bassist Juan Alderete de la Peña; among the guest members were Cedric Bixler-Zavala on vocals, Money Mark on keyboards, John Frusciante on guitars, and Mars Volta's ex-drummer Jon Theodore on the final track (recorded before he departed the band). Omar Rodriguez-Lopez wrote "Se Dice Bisonte…" simultaneously with The Mars Volta's third studio album, Amputechture, and his film score for "El Búfalo de la Noche" (The Night Buffalo) by Venezuelan director Jorge Hernández Aldana (b. 1969). According to the album's liner notes, it served as Omar's "response and expression of his feelings of the film," incorporating parts of the movie score.
The "Se Dice Bisonte, No Búfalo" CD/LP was released by Gold Standard Laboratories on 29 May 2007. It became Omar's first solo record that charted in the United States, reaching No. 40 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers chart. The artwork was created by Damon Locks of The Eternals, with the Bison's silhouette soon adopted by Omar for his new label, Rodriguez Lopez Productions.
