- 1 10 x 8 personally signed photograph of myself with both my thumbs up (sans face)
- replica Tyson's birth certificate (maybe a different Tysons birth certificate at time of photocopying)
- 1 plain tote bag with Tyson written in sharpie along the side
- 1 blank piece of A4 paper, laminated!
- A collection of toe nail clippings (please expect shipping delays, I'm kinda lazy)
- A personalised voicemail message to let all your friends and family know not only do you know Tyson, he tailormade a voice mail message just for you
- An odd sock (where the fuck did the other one go??)
- The knowledge I have your address and I have goggle street viewed it and then tell everyone in a humorous way about the slum you live

Entries close a week from now, I'm to lazy to look to the bottom right of my screen right now, you figure it out, pm me the date and I may edit my post with the details.

Good luck!

Ticks and Leeches, Stinkfist, H., Cold and Ugly, Triad, WAIT

Trick question. Everything off of "10,000 GAYS".

I really liked 10,000 Days. While the album seemed to disappoint some, personally I wasn’t. I don’t think it’s quite as solid as Lateralus and Aenema are, but it’s a great album and a worth inclusion in Tool‘s discography. When I first started putting my list together I had three entries from the album, and there quite easily could have been four.

Though Right In Two, Rosetta Stoned and Wings For Marie/10,000 Days did miss out, Jambi made the cut. When the band spoke about writing for the album, they often dropped Swedish metal band Meshuggah as an influence, and while the rest of the album didn’t really show that influence too much, Jambi certainly did to my ears. The chugging riffs and the polyrythmic drumming pretty much summed up my expectations for this album.

While vocally it’s not a challenging track for Maynard, lyrically I found it to be quite interesting. Deep in symbology, and seemingly pointing to his experiences as a father, they seemed to ring true with me.

And of course then there is the guitar solo. Taking advantage of a Heil Talk Box, Adam created one of his most unique solo proving that while he may not be a technical master of the guitar, he certainly is no slouch when it comes to adding texture and colour to his work.
