$500 per piece, limited to 200. Signed and whatnot.

Calling it.

This fucker will do literally anything to not work on the new album.

Had the same thought right before I read yours. He's a Pro(crastinator).

Thank you fellas got a good laugh out of that this morning. Crazy part is I have no doubt he will sell the shit out of them if he does. Makes you wonder if they are going to do some kind of "21st" anniversary Sober re-release at a buck fity a pop with a limited run skull head included batch for 200 hundred bones. You know those Toolios will drop at least 50 on that head.

Jeebus, that would be a new low. $150 for a SINGLE?

Fuck me. Undertow obviously :p

^ Heh!

[azbay]

well guess I got my wallet ready? Was a fish to bite the opiate album, guess this is next? Any how I am secretly waiting a mini U.S. tour before the next album to hopefully hear songs rarely played these days (Eulogy, Jimmy, H, D/R/T, The Grudge, ect.) wish in one hand shit in the other I guess.

They will re-release each album with physical items as they can't be downloaded. They thought their back catalogue would keep on selling way into their retirement but didn't foresee downloading, pretty poor form for so called futurists.

[azbay]

A replica 'sober' head would be a better bonus than a (are you fucking kidding me!) 4g memory card with new opiate art work on it and nothing else? really hope they do expand their minds and offer (of course before hand to the "fans" who keep up) that they can upload something to it at the one of the merch tables at a show (maybe the pot video before it comes out!?). Needless to say, if its another signed album $$$$ I do agree with with most, work on a new album not another cash grab opportunity. but of course there's Hypostomus plecostomus like me that will feed. BTW any reno 2012 posters anyone wants to trade/sell?

People spend way too much time giving a shit what adults choose to spend their money on.

[not tyson]

adults/idiots either/ither

[azbay]

I'm spending my money on cable to watch the last season of Breaking BAD! I'm sure there are many others if not the host of this site! Bwaha (love ya HB you do have an awesome site even through the changes) but hey whats that annoying saying going on? YOLO? With most everyone else I support this band and their members ( And I don't mean Maynards' dick [entirely, haha] ). people make money and we spend it, how we choose to I agree that it doesn't matter.

[not tyson]

Pretty sure all us Aussies will be illegally downloading/streaming the last season of Breaking bad

[azbay]

YEAH BITCH!

[hellboy]

I ain't paying for shit

Context man. This is a forum, a TOOL forum as you so often like to remind me. Commenting on how people spend their money as it relates to Tool in a Tool Thread is kind of par for the course. I took a bunch of shots at people for buying the Opiate anniversary release because I think it was significantly over priced, particularly for an EP with no real value add. Now if they do an Undertow anniversary release I might bite. That is a pretty special album. I just hope a fucking Sober doll head isn't part of that package. That would be tacky as fuck, even for Tool.

Cool - don't ever ask us for money for your site, then.

What's that got to do with the argument?

Comments that Tool stuff is overpriced is fair and completely valid comments.

Commenting that people are idiots for buying doesn't really add anything to the conversation, and is kinda pointless. As you point out, we are in a Tool forum and it should surprise no one that a Tool fan spends money on Tool.

[the chill]

I agree with hellboy. On the old forum I totally complained about the price of the Opiate re-release but I don't ever give a shit what people spend there money on. You guys that care have some problems. I guess its ok to have an opinion but to really get butt hurt about somebody spending there own money is silly. I am not trying call anybody out or shit on anybody.

I would most likely buy a Undertow re-release only if the price was right and it was re-mastered. I really hope they do a live DVD or Salival part 2 thing with just awesome live music. I have over 15 bootleg DVD's and over 30 live bootleg shows on my external hard drive but they never seem to give me what salival does with the sound quality. Sure I have the Kalamazoo recording and a couple of the IEM shows but they still don't give me that sound that I want from a live CD. It would be a perfect christmas gift to us fans to bring out something like that before the new album comes out in 2014.

Yeah, I was drunk when I wrote that. And I didn't think it was particularly clever even then.

My apologies.

My apologies.

No apology needed. Drunken posting is what makes good forums great!

I find music memorabilia to be a weird beast. On one hand, you have an era that has created a whole system and market of artifacts and hardcore buyers and sellers (the 60s and 70s). On the other hand, you have wankjob bands like TOOL thinking that they have the right to charge ridiculous amounts of money for an EP that you already own - just because it's signed.

I have a problem with bands cashing-in on shit before their time is done. Everything TOOL has done since their last album has just struck me as exploitative cashgrabs.

I have no problem with people telling me that I'm way off on this one - but you have to admit, there is an element of truth in what I'm saying.

I disagree, but I appreciate the sentiment.
