Pretty sure I can guess what that is based on a few things, and if it's that, it should stay private unless they want people to know.
thanks dude....awesome...
Ok look, they already pretty much nailed it a page or so back.
Two of the members (and no one should say or guess at who, don't be a gossipy prick) made a little chud-baby, and another member (might have been the singer, maybe not) became irate to the point of leaving the band because they were of the understanding that this sort of conduct was strictly not allowed per the original agreement. Sounds like they worked it out though.

That golden ticket prize is pretty fucking lame if there is only 5 of them.
I'll have to agree that them not knowing what the prize is going to be yet is pretty damn lame but I'll also have to say that's an indicator showing how tied up they really are with this writing business. As for the golden tickets themselves... it's kind of cool that there are only 5. I think if they released too many of them it wouldn't be special at all... Side Note: Anyone else notice the two posts that are close together on the toolband site that state MTVoid's album is shipping free now? Definitely trying to pushit so I'll say it's not selling very well. I was going to buy one myself initially but their stupid website wouldn't let me order it in the beginning. Then I decided against it after hearing songs on youtube. Not saying justins parts are bad but listening to vocals in another language just doesn't do anything for me. On the newer post about shipping... good luck finding anyone in Oklahoma with a computer that can actually even access the internet... Wonder if the Opiate re-release will have issues with ordering as well? I'll assume so....

I wanna know what the problems were, screw being politically correct, did this band break up at some point?
Adam made a point of saying in the interview that he's proud that they're one of two bands from their era to not break up or break up and get back together, so no.
Also, they've toured every year since 10,000 Days came out, so I'd doubt it.
I'd guess whatever the second thing is might perhaps be something that happened to an individual member.

It's kinda ridiculous that Revolver can be allowed to publish an Adam Jones interview, yet Blair is still waiting for permission to publish the one he did with Adam on the same day. Â Really tells you something about the bands connection to Blair & the website.
But wouldn't interviewing Adam imply permission?
"Hey Adam can I interview you?"
"Sure but I'll decide later if you can print it"
"What the fuck?"
"Just do it, mushroom"

I agree, though I expect most bands that size "approve" any interview that is to be published. Â Why they feel the need to do this for their own webmaster I'm not sure, unless something Adam discussed in the interview is something that needs to be run past other members of the band.

fascinating read. it's nice to have actual news from the source. it's telling that they (AJ) are more involved in the business side of things. any guesses from folks as to what the opiate reissue will cost?
I hope the issues noted were nothing of the health variety because that would really suck.
on a side note I recently saw meshuggah here in LA. there was this rowdy group standing next to my friends and I. they were cool and clearly digging the show as we were. show is over... it was Danny and his posse. said a quick hello.... nicest most gracious guy ever.

The general vibe I get from that interview is that the band are in no hurry to finish the album. If the writing process were (finally) nearing an end you'd think he would at least have alluded to that fact (as in....it's been a lengthy writing process but we're glad to be finally nearing an end to it).
Definitely no new album for at least the next twelve months.

I feel like getting upset for no reason at the hearing of this revelation.
