That is how a primitive mind thinks. Suck it up with a big vacuum and shoot it into space from Cape Canaveral. That's a thinking man's answer.

@junior, I probably don't, but do you happen to know if these upcoming shows have the standard VIP option or is it just a presale? I appreciate the insight. Sources seem mixed and vague.

I thought it was Justn given that he seemed to be into that industrial stuff.

Is that the fucking Roland CR-78 (Genesis, Collins fame) I hear????

Honestly, the variant thing is pure horseshit. They should have made a product people could get and feel completely satisfied with. Instead they played into consumer sales bullshit and people of varying degrees of susceptibility have to have that nagging thought of not getting a certain one, or all ...

CONFIRMED Tickets are on-sale Sept. 6 at 10 am local time, with a limited number of tickets will be available to Tool Army members on Sept. 4. Tool Army information, as well as VIP package details, can be found via Toolband.com. Couldnt find any info on TA presales on the website... I'll keep looki...

I had the same exact though sequence.

Everything about this album is opposite to and what 10,000 Days should have been. The music is inspired and valuable to listeners. The art is their best yet and unlike the b-reel gimmick box last time, the art here is original and has an inspired tonal pulse. The band was obviously really passionate...

This potentially Tool's best song ever written.

Why where these album threads get moved?

The gong is great and well done on the album. That is how it is supposed to be hit but live it's more frantic and you get a less whole metal clanging sound.

Why do these journalists insist beating these stale topics to death?? How many more times are we going to hear the origin story and about how Adam went to HS with Tom??

I am thinking we'll see a setlist with all the tunes except Culling Voices, given the two guitars, unless that's Justin on the record. That frees up 10 min for two crowd pleasers in addition to one or two others.

I too hope they play the entire album. Fingers crossed. Also the riff into gong of Descending is perfect on the album recording. Everything is lined up the way it is supposed to be and I love how they mixed the gong into a panned, produced static/shimmer. They made the sound work instead of just hav...

That is exactly why. It's about me and how correct I am. That is definitely what I was implying when I attacked your bias and triggered your response. I know better than Tool. I could have whipped them all into shape years ago, then Maynard would be screaming still and the entire album wouldn't soun...

@children Yea, there is a ton of decay on it and the ringing sounds dissonant. Definitely the snare. He's never had that sound before. Maybe they just mix out the decay normally and this is more natural. The actual crack and head sound great and pitched to the song, its just the resonance. I’m sure ...

This thing is so dense that it’ll need to be unpacked for a long time coming. A good thing. On the flipside, these songs are just too long and the instrumentals start to bleed together. It’s refreshing when Tempest starts not because it’s angry Tool again, but because it’s just different. I think t...

That out of tune snare in Invincible, ARRRRRGGHHHH. The overtones are so nasty and really prevalent in the mix. That is probably my biggest gripe of few.

how could anyone sit there and watch/listen to that stupid fucker speak on the internet. He should stay forever irrelevant and yet the internet gives zeros like him a voice. Shameful. Pretty good album. I find myself searching for high points but it’s consistent and engrossing. A very composed piec...

man 7empest is so fun I don’t even know how to explain it. It ROCKS HARD! I’m gonna practice that chugging riff with my tongue and use it on the wife later dngdnananan dngdnandngndngng It is the one song with very deliberate drive right out the gate and the only one that doesn't follow the same for...

As with many of his other wall of harmony parts, I like it but I wish his standard pitch was mixed more to the front of the voices.

How the hell do you not know how rip a CD??

Oh wait, Adam's kid ripped it. Alright, I forgive him.
