That decoy album theory was fucking hilarious back in the day lol I personally was disappointed when I first heard the Vicarious single. It took seeing it live to appreciate that one. But once the album dropped I thought it was awesome despite not being at all what I expected.

I took some LSD today and listened to the various recordings of the new songs repeatedly... feeling and listening as deeply as possible. oh wow. This album is going to be fucking monumentally awesome.

yeah, that one is awesome Agreed about Danny at his age. I saw him play with the DCT at Stumpfest and he may be old but goddamn he can still lay it down like only a high grade magus can. The dude is a badass of the highest order. Some of those drum parts are just ludicrous :0

"Purple any news from your friend i saw you say something about someone hearing it"

nothing new here. I strongly suspect Tool is finding all of this suspense absolutely hilarious though lol Just imagine the ego satisfaction haha

" I remember 10,000 Days being compared to Undertow be early listeners as well, and it didn't really turn out that way."

lol that's what I thought as soon as he said it. I thought hmmm I've heard that before haha

Was Undertow really that heavy compared to their other albums? I've never thought so. The songs are heavy, but the recording does sound "tinny". If it were recorded and/or mixed differently and maybe even slowed down a bit it would be a more viscerally heavy record. But I think the commen...

I expect the paradigm shift probably won't be as large as some are assuming from that statement. I think for the most part it'll be the same Tool we are used to. I agree. I've been lurking here for years and been a Tool fan since '96 but have never posted. Buuuut I happen to have an acquaintance wh...
