Tool music update on Toolband!!
Re: Tool music update on Toolband!!
Doing a little experiment today I listened to both Lateralus and 10,000 days on my shitty work computer.
During Lateralus, when the quiet parts let way for loud parts, there was a noticeable difference in volume.
With 10,000 days, it stayed the same.
Yeah.

Re: Tool music update on Toolband!!
you guys get it? ..
read tyson's post. the lyrics came to mind, maybe because the pacing he wrote with. maybe it was the soul-crushing, cubicle-enclosed desperation i pictured him struggling with.
but everything lined up nicely.
*edit- & ty much tactic. a little man-on-man collaboration.. Tyson loves that shit

Hopefully the next album is a superior product to everything they've done before, and "10,000 DAYS" will largely be ignored for the embarrassment that it is.
O love will you read the letters I will send to you.

It's only an embarrassment to certain fans. I doubt the band feel embarrassed about it in the slightest.children wrote:Why, again, is it an embarrassment?

I'd say the production was an embarrassment, Tool seemed to always have unique production, on 10,000 days it sounded like any other major metal band release, they used to lead in production, on 10,000 days, they followed.children wrote:Why, again, is it an embarrassment?

Other than that, no embarrassment, just sub par compared to their previous two releases.
Right in Two was the only song for me that hit the heights of them.

Re: Tool music update on Toolband!!
Production, and recycled ideas - not to mention some truly cringe-inducing lyrics and average musicianship.
As I've said before, it would be a really good album for any other band. For TOOL, it was a horrible regression, and I suspect time will prove it to be a blemish in their catalogue.

I hope the new album includes more monkeys, maybe a song on this
But yeah recycled ideas, the start of vicarious sounded like schism

Re: Tool music update on Toolband!!
None of the Tool albums are shining examples of great production in my opinion, so saying 10k Days is terrible (which is isn't, nor is it amazing) seems like a waste of time.

Barresi intentionally kept 10k loud. He wanted to try to re-capture that dynamic that was present on Undertow. He specifically said he wanted the guitar out in front a bit more. That was why they didn't want Ludwig to fuck around with the sound much during mastering. The problem with 10k isn't the production. The album lacks any kind of flow and The Pot is a fucking mess of a song. Beyond that 10K is a solid album.
