I hear Omar Rodriguez (the band's guitarist/writer/producer) on some San Diego station almost a year ago and he explained what the band name meaning was. He said that he was very much into Roman mythology and Mars is the god of war, and some screen play writer or something (I forgot the name) used the word 'volta' as 'contridiction'.
So he said, The Mars (roman god of war) Volta (a contridiction) had the meaning of "The Peace Bringers" So there you go :). Band meaning done.

As the way we write songs and words, if it looks great on paper then to us it's like painting, so if it looks good...

So a typical part of volta music is changing of szenes and complexe structures.regards
