Lol, Adam looks kinda peeved in that photo. Kanaduh is probably on some list somewhere now.

Fair enough. I don't really poke my head into that thread too much so I didn't know. My bad.

Don't worry, the post was aimed at Califum more than you.

Point taken sir.

All in all there were plenty of refreshing tidbits to be gleaned.

And I wonder if Gloria fully realises what she is (ultimately) responsible for bringing into the world?!?!

At a local forum there was a poll on best TooL song, top 10's used to determine, the end result:

20. Jimmy
19. Prison Sex
18. Disposition
17. Eulogy
16. Third Eye
15. Hooker with a Penis
14. Reflection
13. H.
12. Jambi
11. The Grudge

10. Pushit
09. Parabola
08. 10,000 Days
07. Forty Six & 2
06. Sober
05. Lateralus
04. Schism
03. Vicarious
02. Stinkfist
01. Ænema

Terrible top 10

Most of the songs on my top ten list I've never heard live, sadly.

If it was a double album, would that change things for you?

I've been loudly saying for a while that I suspect that it will be a double album - or at least have an EP in connection.

And no, that wouldn't make any difference to me.

No "Flood" or "4 Degrees" equals no good.

Yes, I scorned others for not having Flood in their top 10's.

Right on. And "Lateralus" or "jimmy" not being number one reveals you to be a fucking fake. "Third Eye" is acceptable, depending on what the remaining nine looks like.

You can't imagine how many people I've alienated in pubs back in the day by saying things like that. Whatevs, I stick to my guns.

Whoops!

Like.
Care and stuff.

It was the outcome, not my top 10 anyway.

But Ænema as nr.1 spot I can agree with as it is my number two spot.

Sure Aenema is #1, for their video clips.

So I know the whole deal with kanaduhs recording being taken down. And I totally get it. But I was wondering if anyone knows where I can listen to it again? Google hasn't been much help. I don't plan on distributing it or sharing it on FB or anything stupid like that. I would just like to listen to it while at work.

You could probably send Kanaduh a PM. He might give it to you.

idk if this was posted before... but here is it..."Tool Explains Why taking so long...."

FYI


-In fact, "heavy" is a word both band members use to describe their new sounds. "Sometimes I feel we get a little too proggy or too into exploring time signatures but not getting heavy enough for my taste," Jones says. "There are some good nose-bleeding riffs happening, and I'm really happy about that. It's not out-of-the-gate crazy heavy, but there are these little journeys with nice paths that end up very heavy."-

I like this part.... haha

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 Lateralus came from the muck of a legal battle... maybe this album will be similarly focused, whenever it does come out. I will sadly admit that it's probably not going to be 2014 when we see a release.

This'll be fun, reaction wise.

It used to hurt, now it doesn't even phase me. No reaction from any of us is going to make the album drop any sooner.

Keep plugging away boys.

Tool, I ain't mad at ya. I'm just disappointed.

I wonder what post here on fourtheye finally put Adam over the edge? I bet it was the onions.

Yeah, I really couldn't care less what the reasoning is at this point. It just sounds to me like they really are out of ideas if Jones is more interested in straight-up metal than something a little more complex.

And it also baffles me how these seemingly intelligent people never took precautions in the first place to prevent all these lawsuits. I can't think of any other band that constantly seems to be in court.

Whatever. The music world is a rich and vibrant place, and these dudes aren't even a blip on the radar anymore.
