That rocks. I wish those guys came to Canada more, or at all...
:rockin:

Sounds a lot like most of Lateralus (sp?). Not that it doesn't rock a little, but it's too drawn out and boring, IMO. They're an incredible band, but to me their sound and style has become very dry.

I think it has a familiar sound as well...I'm getting big time APC....

I still think it kicks ass though...this is my kind of music....

Oh damn... I was thinking you had discovered some new tool we could pick up at Home Depot. TOOL who?? lol

*clutches chest, falls off chair*

Didn't mean to totally slag it. I'll probably buy it, too.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Maynard's voice and lyrics? :rockin:

Really good song. Mix between Laterulus and Aenima. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

Damn link isn't working for me at work...can't wait to get home tonight.

I was beginning to wonder if they were ever going to put out another album. I don't suppose they'll come anywhere near Lincoln.

Not that I get to go to concerts anymore, anyway.

Very Lat-like...The place they will be playing in NYC is insane looking.

I agree. I hope this new disc isn't Lat II. i still LOVE the first song though. Can't wait to hear more.

I'm looking forward to it as well. A friend of mine suggested that where each album was a new experiment, Tool may've fallen into a safe zone in this follow-up to Lat. Not that Lateralus was bad at all...We'll see in two weeks.

WOW...the whole album has leaked now....

I may or may not be downloadign it right now.

Either way, I'm buying the damn thing on the 2nd. :rockin:

Maybe we need to start a new thread - "Favorite Tool Album" :rockin:

And make a rule that every post has to have this guy --> :rockin:

Ænima is my fave. :rockin: Then Opiate, then Lat, then Undertow.

I've istened to the new one 2 times todday, it is an APC clone album with maybe 3 good songs. Mighty disappointed.

Definitely Ænima. Eulogy has the most f**ked up drum part in the middle of it. I played a little in college, and that song blew my mind.

Unreal. You ****ed up your own rule.



































:rockin:





BTW...I think Ænima was 10 years ahead of its time, and is one of the rare CDs I consider a "masterpiece".

Doh!!!!!!!!


:rockin: :rockin: :rockin:

Too late??

So did anyone actually buy it?

I definitely had the right leak, but the actual album is much better production. The whole thing is really growing on me. It has a stinker or two but the good songs are REALLY good.

I love The Pot, Intension and Right In Two. :rockin:

The packaging alone is worth the cash.

I'm still listening to it, trying to "get it." This is common with their albums. So far the only part I really don't like is the intro to track 5. Such hokey lyrics, reminds me of NIN.

What are your thoughts on this LP?

BTW, slickdeals has a deal for this cd, $6.72 shipped:

Guess it didn't catch on?

For an LP I expected more. I liked 2 and 5 a lot.

Yeah, it ain't their best effort, IMHO.

I've heard bits off of Dude's disk, so I'm not an authority on this disk, but to me their new stuff rambles too much. There's some incredible musicianship and songwriting at play, but now it's all mid-tempo wanking.

I like my rock straight and to the point. I like "thinking man's" rock, too, but not if it's friggin' boring.
