It should be noted those results were from the 65 countries that participated in the PISA testing

but after a few quick searches, it appears the USA and Australia are very close in education systems. USA is ranked 14 and Australia is ranked 15. http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2013/12/03/248329823/u-s-high-school-students-slide-in-math-reading-science We're not that high... well we're probab...

It's not that hard really. Thankfully in Australia we have a decent education system. Nice lol... so what's the score so far? USA - 753 Australia - 1 The U.S. measures success in military power and bank account size. Our devolution in communal tendencies is a disease. But... keep patting yourself o...

There you have it... probably salival 2 or something of that nature.

Loulz at the article complaining about a Lateralus-heavy setlist.

Music critics are as useful as an asshole right here (**points to elbow**)

I may have asked this question before but does anyone know if this "ToolArchive" character on YouTube is affiliated with the band in anyway or a member of our beloved FE? Either way, he does post some of the best TOOL bootlegs out there Particularly the latest vid TOOL live St Charles in ...

my original post wasn't exactly a baby-rant, it just seems like the reality of the situation. these guys much like everyone else in the industry (who don't own their own publishing) get paid by touring. it seems difficult when looking at the most recent news. but I do think these life changes will ...

"Jambi sucks" within the first 20 posts on a Tool forum. just shut the fuck up, please. Bitch please, I've joined this forum in 2006. Different username. I used to be Doors. Hello and fuck you! regardless of your initial join date, and prior names, your opinion is still wrong. Jambi might...

So your "can't get blood out of stone" commentary meant what?

Via Fourtheye , "A working title for one of the new songs is Bouncing Arab ." (my emphasis) Sigh . This is confirmation that the downward trajectory of the lyrical quality that began with 10,000 Days will continue. You can't get blood out of a stone. Your obsession with this working title...

WTF sounds like they're throwing in the towel

Really? Are you that dense?

I've been thinking about all of this since the lawsuit news came out... I don't really consider this lawsuit BS to be a viable excuse to lose creative energy. Obviously Maynard's creative drive hasn't withered. Danny continues to play music and plug away. It seems like an excuses and assholes scenar...

Kangaroo done hung the jury?

That's probably an apt observation... though... no one is innocent.

It's hard to blame them for the multitude of lawsuits they always seem to be fighting; everybody wants to cash-grab from a seemingly vulnerable band (they have so many people collaborating, it's got to be easy to find a way to wiggle in and start sucking from the host). The silver lining is that Lat...

Buy...buy...buy... send more money. Fuck you, buddy.

I'm not sure how you telling me what I already know will change anyone's perception of the man. You should have hated him 20 years ago.

MJK is having fun and doing his own thing like he seemingly always has been. This celebration of his array of projects would have been a sight to behold; I'm jealous that I didn't get to take in that show. I've seen Puscifer once and I was blown away by his energy. You can tell he takes a certain pr...

Work is boring today... I'll give a projection of what I expect to get in Spokane next week. If the last few years are any indication, it will be either the same setlist as Japan or a couple different songs thrown in. 1. Rosetta Stoned 2. Stinkfist 3. Jambi 4. Forty-Six and 2 5. Schism 6. Opiate/Flo...

i do see your point, however immature it may seem ;) lol, but i guess if i was you and i hated tool i just wouldnt waste my time on a tool forum, unless however i was lying about hating tool and i was just trolling everyone!!!! dun dun dun!!!! Oh it is horribly immature, no doubt about it. That is ...

There will be no new Tool album in 2014. This will not be a big year for Tool.

Tool will have a new record this year. Consider me Nostradamus while you're jumping off a very tall building.

I will be making the 814 mile drive from Spearfish to Spokane, Washington. I have about 4 people coming with me; it'd be cool to meet a fellow fourtheye member at the show. Anybody else going to that one?

Ah those were awesome! Mayjay of the gold ol' days... untouchable. It's amazing how much the songs tighten up with the extra time being spent on them. The Pushit guitar solo was nothing then compared to what they ended up with. Hopefully this is considered by the fanboi Toolios who bitch about the n...

I feel dirty now.

Yeah you kind of walked into that. I must have misplaced my forum protocol pamphlet.

Nothing seems to satisfy.

MOG you stole my watch you son-of-a-bitch!

Idk why you'd have a problem with the 'spiral out' motif, MOG. Personally I think it's a positive M.O. for those who have a tough time trudging through the muck of daily bullshit. 'Spiral out, keep going' in it's beautifully done Lateralus form has probably saved a few lives over the years. I think ...
