THE Tool Thread

10,000 Days was more like aenima part 2.

lol no

LOL Y NOT


It was nothing like Lateralus in any way.    Right In Two was almost a complete re-write of 46+2.

I'm honestly struggling to find anything those two songs have in common whatsoever other then the number two in the title.

Right In Two sounds more like the Pushit rewrite from Salival.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't notice this but you're right. I always thought Pushit from Salival was better than the album version.

I love the salival version too, especially the climax into the original.

[growthmusic57]

Yeah, the Salival version is a lot better IMO too. Maynard's intro, Danny & Aloke's tabla section, the climax is pretty intense (both versions are), and Danny's kit just sounds huge on Salival. His drum sound on Ænima is a little thin to me.

[Ben_Jamin]

One of the finest re-arrangements.

Intension is just be-a-u-ti-ful. Love the tone and atmosphere.  Finest bass sound I've heard yet.

Cool. The wait will be worth it

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

I won't believe it's coming out until I hold it in my hands.


Maybe not even then.

[Lolzeez]

Hey guys I'm from the future. The year is 2020 and so far we only got an EP with 3 songs.

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

 










but seriously.

[TioJorge]

It takes how long it takes. I just hope it's worth the wait, that's the part I'm agonizing over; not the wait itself. While I would love some new Tool, I never understood the agony some people emit over actually waiting...y'know, as if they're sitting there, ACTUALLY WAITING. 

Eh. Maynard has usually delivered ten fold in the past. Here's hoping.

Yeh, when you consider how much people can get done while they are 'waiting', it's kind of a joke

Most assuredly. No one here really does it but I have friends who will talk about it every day I see them and bitch and moan and blah blah blah... I'm thinking...if you really want to wait it out, forget about it, do something entirely different and it'll be here before you know it. Literally the only time I remember how long it's been is when I see this fucking thread pop up.

Orrrrr the band could stop being lazy/full of themselves/whatever and put out an album. It's hilarious when people criticize others for wanting music from a band they like more than once a decade.

If I had the choice between waiting a decade for a fantastic album, and waiting 3 years for a subpar, half assed effort...I would prefer the former.

Since Tool has never done a subpar album...I think they deserve a little leeway. 

[Jaffa]

Orrrrr the band could stop being lazy/full of themselves/whatever and put out an album. It's hilarious when people criticize others for wanting music from a band they like more than once a decade.

For the record, I don't criticize people for wanting music from bands they like.  I criticize people for acting like bands are obligated to put out albums. 

Anyway, how about you just pretend that Tool broke up?  Then you won't expect them to make any music anymore, and if they ever do, it'll come as a pleasant surprise.  And in the meantime, you don't have to spend all your time waiting and complaining about how much you're waiting. 

[black_biff_stadler]

It's just hard to find other bands that use drop-D and play in D minor.

[pain of occupation]

Hey guys I'm from the future. The year is 2020 and so far we only got an EP with 3 songs.

"...and it was only two live songs and a KC cover  but there ARE rumors of a full length next year  "

Cvmslvt.

[Perpetual Change]

Can't we just pop in the new Karnivool, shut our eyes, and pretend we're listening to new Tool?

used that idea just yesterday to someone.

[emtee]

OR...if you wanted to get even closer to the sound of Tool you could check out Soen the band Martin Lopez went to after Opeth.
Almost Tool clones.

[ReaperKK]

Curious what they mean by trying to push things in different ways. Either way I'm sure it'll be a fun listen.

This. An artist...any artist...has no obligation to continue making art to the audience just because they made it in the first place, and no member of an audience has the right to assume an artist works under obligation to you, and at your schedule.

[Perpetual Change]

Yeah, the attitude people have toward Tool is outrageous. Wanting new music is one thing, but acting like the band has some obligation to the audience is another.

I mean, that'd be like my boss telling me that I obligated to work for him forever, just because of all he's done for me so far.

Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
Red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
Lets me see.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

 

I, personally, can't wait. Not to say that I think they are obligated to continue releasing music, because I'd be fine if they didn't. It would just be a little disappointing, and that's my own fault.

[Kotowboy]

It's just that Metallica and Tool both have "promised" that the next album will come out in less than 5 years and in each case it's taken longer.

That's what starts to get annoying. I'm certainly not demanding that Tool or Metallica put out albums every two years...

But even Hetfield has said that he's "embarrassed" how few albums they have.

I agree with this.
