According to Blabbermouth Tool have cancelled their upcoming show in Barcelona due to “logistical” reasons. What do they mean by “logistical”? My guess is either the bands equipment won’t arrive in time, or someone forgot to book the bands First Class airline tickets.
Isis will be holding a launch party at the Cha-Cha Lounge in LA on the 30th of October. According to Blair there will be give aways on the night, and entry is free. Sounds like a good event to me, and there will even be cheap booze apparently.
yay new vote. does that mean the logo is decided???
Perhaps, I still need to think about it a little more…
Isis>Tool
isis>tool
isis-tool>0
(isis-tool)^2>0
isis^2 + tool^2 – 2isistool>0
isis^2 + tool^2 > 2isistool
there you go, i just proved you wrong
Most bands>Tool

oh no rosetta stoned is catching dayzzz. better hit up some proxies and boost it back up :D. kidding!

OK, some reason it didn’t include my whole message on the last comment, this is what i said preciously
“doors”
*smack head* i give up….. this comment thing dosn’t like this things
lol. You guys need to get laid.
omfg its 31 days until i see the mv. omg omg omg. there is some one else here who is seeing them as well.
who are you fool?
do you have “a missing chromosome”
damn thats a fancy good album
Not me and no i don’t and yes it is.
Arrrgh DOORS. You struck again. you crack me up man
Why are you not commiting to a logo Hellboy? Do you disagree with the top voted or just holding out on us? Maybe you’ve got some more up your sleeve that you haven’t shared yet?
Just to clear up a few things: *I do disagree with the results of the poll, but I’m not so bothered by that, since I clearly stated that ultimately I would choose the winner. *I’m not committing to the logo yet only because it won’t be ‘announced’ until I’ve finished the redesign of the website, which is behind schedule and probably won’t happen until sometime in November. *I have a couple of late-submission logos, all of which are pretty good but don’t change my current favorite. *Today I booked my tickets to Sydney, so stay tuned for a Fourth Eye… Read more »
Yeah, we’d love to catch up ‘pre sydney show’, and we’re also keen to hang out on the big day out barrier for a few hours with some fellow fans. On another note, I was in a cover band, ‘Gaping Lotus Experience’ a few years ago. The members have since been strewn across the state, and i dont get to see them often. Luckily, the singer (FINALLY) got tickets to Syd in the ‘re-sale’, so January 24th will be like a reunion for our band. Pretty psyched up to punch a scalper! oh, and to that girl who camped out… Read more »
I had so many great ideas for a logo, I wish i knew something about those computer drawie programs so I could make one. Anyway, I’m glad to hear you disagree with the votes… And since Jonas (i think?) made your favourite, number 8, and now having seen what he can do with it, I’m behind it too. Number 7’s still my fave though. Having said that, the logos do look pretty amateur, so I hope your planning to do something with them more than just putting them beside the words Fourth Eye as the headers on papers and such.… Read more »
Yes, I plan to release a line of embroidered underwear for men, and G-Strings for women.
Hey Hellboy, check the mailbox when you get home – there might be something good inside…
I’ll find out in about 15 minutes…..
^Cool! I hope it’s there because I just checked and found out that your end of the deal came through. Cheers mate 🙂
p.s. thanks for the tip – I’ll buy you a beer in Sydney to make it even…
some ideas on logoed items,
perhaps s/s fribees for when JET are up at the BDO.
or eskies to the improve viewing.
would the undies come in Xlarge?
oh no we cant just make g-strings for women. jonas would be horrified. please reconsider
Why waste a perfectly good Fourth Eye Frisbee on fuck wits like Jet when an empty beer can or something will suffice.
Matt, ticket has arrived! Thanks a bunch, it wasn’t a tip btw, just a little something to help out with the postage. And don’t worry, there’ll be plenty of time in Sydney for many many beers.
🙂
its true. jet sucks ass blood. literally. they are all queef-faced slags who wear gay sunnies and pretend to be heaps cool.
i think panopoly. thanks for the deftones tip. torrenting now. woo!
^ Oh crap, I forgot the eyes! 🙂
yay now i dont have to double post.
also torrenting the string quartet tribute to tool!
anyone heard it?
good?
anyone got a link for the sq to NIN?
how exciting
Have you got BDO tickets in the mail…? Mine hasn’t come yet, but they did mention it might take a few aeons.
I’ve got the string tribute somewhere… It’s not too bad at all actually, but not something I listen to everyday. Oh and replayee… would g-strings for men aswell make Jonas feel better?
that was the gist of it 🙂
^BDO tickets apparently started arriving in people’s mailboxes over a week or so ago. The first person I had heard of getting their tickets in the mail got theirs on Thursday October 19th. Mine came last Thursday (oct 26th) so I would imagine that your tickets aren’t too far away… it’s actually a really good feeling opening the envelope upon receiving them – I usually get tickets at the outlet etc. so this whole postal ticket thing is relatively new.
Anyway, don’t worry. They will be here soon.
I’ve heard the tribute… and it’s not my thing. There’s actually some good cello bands out there, bands I would listen to before a Tool tribute band (come on).
I’d wear a fourtheye beenie if it didn’t look gay as fuck. I love beenies.
And the eye should be on the back for the ginch…
Oh I have a killer idea! A line of FOURTH EYE GLASS EYES. Am I right? or am I right? or am I wrong?
The String Quartet stuff is interesting at best, but doesn’t get many hits in my playlist. The aenema cover is the cooler of the renditions, and part of me wishes tool would some day go nuts and get an orchestra up on stage with them. Not too sure about the likelyhood of that one though…
also, replayee- i wasn’t aware there was String work for NIN? That’s sounds cool, i’ll have to check it out!
Speaking of NIN, this will be cool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxAwkrx0QXg
yes if you find it, please tell me.
yess i think panopoly mentioned that vid a little while back. its on nin.com as well.
should be great. now all i need is a hi-def tv, blu-ray player and surround sound. 😀
I saw the NIN tribute in the shops a while ago, no idea what it sounds like however. But I agree with Panoply, there are much better cello bands, my favourite being Apocalyptica. I haven’t listened to them in a very long time now I think of it… The new NIN dvd should be great, but I’m more looking forward to the new album in April.
And thanks Mattw, it’ll come when it feels like it.
I can’t wait for the new album either, but HD NIN concert! Surround! 5.1! I can’t fucking wait for that. Not that I’ll ever get a big enough TV to make it 101% killer though.
And speaking of… what we were speaking of…

I think that’s what we’re really talking about… Yeah, does the HD-DVD need a special player, because relatives of mine have a HD projector, just wondering if it will work…?
And the comments don’t like daylight saving it seems.
lol have you guys seen this.
reznor looking a little shabby.

Hmmm, maybe High Definition wasn’t such a great idea….
I would imagine you would need a HD DVD capable player (Xbox 360) and a HD tv to enjoy that.. glad I have one.. would prefer the TOOL DVD.. NIN already has a DVD (DTS) and it kicks fucking ass
i spent a bit on a decent amp and speakers a few years back. took lateralus into the shop to test a few options. ended up getting an amp that couldn’t play laeralus via the dvd option, only video input. weird. must be the hdcd thingo. 10k days is fine though. nothing better than hearing justins bass pan from over your left shoulder to the front right speaker and dannys fills going from hard left to hard right. everyone should have a decent surround sound setup. hurry up january.
Just to clarify, the Xbox360 won’t play HD-DVD straight out of the box. You need to purchase the (currently unreleased) HD-DVD player to attach to it.
yeah, you need either an hddvd player or a bluray player depending on what disc you want. PS3 will come with a bluray player, but hddvds are having a more succesful launch right now. not that one is better than the other.
you are not your hdtv. you are not your surround sound. you are the same decaying matter as everything else. we are all part of the same compost heap.
your not your fucking khakis.
i believe that is a quote from fight club. correct me if im wrong. i do believe you added your own spin on it though. how intriguing
The end of the preview says ‘Blu-Ray’, though i daresay depending on the initial success of blu-ray and HD Discs, that it may well be available on DVD as well. My favourite bit on that preview is the flying bear- cracks me up every time!
Makes me wish Reznor brought more visuals to the Syd shows…
I doubt it’ll be on just a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD disc, I’d say there will be versions in both DVD format and one of the HD formats. Or it may be released on a Hybrid disc which contains both the HD and DVD formats, though I’m not sure whether or not this technology is out there just yet (though I have read about it).
no it was confirmed by reznor to be on hd dvd, blu ray and dvd. cant cite that though, but i remember reading it.
yeah.
yeah.
even if there was a dvd format on a hybrid disc, you would still need to play it on a hddvd/bluray player.
yeah.
definitely, yeah. definitely.
chances are it’ll definitely, definitely be on dvd, definitely. most movie titles aren’t even in hd format yet.
yeah.
untill you go into a blockbuster or whatever you crazy people have and see the walls stacked with hddvds and bluray, dvd will be definitely predrominant.
yeah.
Well the Hybrid I was talking about would work on both a standard DVD player, and also a Blu-Ray/HD-DVD player. The technology is being designed so that producers of the disks can release a version that will work on both, so that the user need not buy a DVD version and then a HD version.
But then again, since the producers would benjefit finacially from people buying both, I probably wouldn’t expect many of these hybrid disks to be produced….
