Tool

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Yeah...It seems like a long time, but considering that in the 5 or so weeks we've been working on this, we've not finished one song. :-/

We're close I suppose.

Hmm interesting night...

After recent events (second last page L+R) i couldn't sleep, stayed on MX till about 2 then headed off to bed...

I got about 2 hrs sleep total at about 9:30. I listened to every tool album bar salival, and some dream theater and the cure :emo: I remembered people talking about just sitting there and absorbing the music, so i thought i'd give it a try. I ended up just listening to the drums really, it wasn't really a pleasant experience, i was too fidgety, for it to be cool i'd need to be more relaxed. Also i didn't cue up salival properly, which was not good :(

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Hey - can somebody find the article about Tool performing at some sort of scientology event a while back? I just thought that the story was hilarious. Something about the band bahhing like sheep at the crowd. :lol:

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Attn. Limp Bizkit has a progressive 16:28 minute song. It's very Toolesque.

If you are talking about Everything, than you have no clue what Tool is about. That song is extremely boring to listen to. There's no progression to the song whatsover and frankly, the fact that you say it's Toolesque, pretty much insults Tool to the highest degree. Listen to "Third Eye" and than listen to "Everything." Note the difference. Look man, I respect your opinion, but please stop talking about LB on here. You already started a thread about 3 Dollar Bill Y'all. Yet you post those garbage Durst lyrics in this thread. Why? It's quite unfitting considering the fact that you posted it in a Tool thread, and Tool has very good lyrics (especially on the last 2 cds).

[Kage]

I agree that Everything is actually a pretty boring spurt of ambient noise. But he can talk about it in here if he wants, because this is a more a thread for Tool fans to come together and converse, since not too much is happening Tool-wise.

I guess we could over-analyze every second of Lateralus every day, but there are limits as to how many things we can talk about with literally no news coming from the Tool front.

[Mr Herb]

LB on a tool thread. Thats like John Kerry on the republican convention. Anyways.

Can someone show me a list of the drummers that have perfomed triad lvie with tool.Or at least mention a few?

LB suck, don't get me wrong. (yes, I have heard more than enough to know what I'm talking about). But, believe it or not, LB were influenced greatly by Tool.

[Mr Herb]

I bet they were but it dont matter cause Fred Durst sucks so much.

Wats yer point dude?

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

It means that if Moses wants to talk about LB in here, then he can.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Kage- Are you on AIM now?

Enough with the Fred Durst hating guys. He is good at what he does.*


























*He's not a musician, he's a marketing man. :lol:

Yeah, and Moses, just because the song is 16 minutes long doesn't make it progressive. Look at Disgustipated. It may be more of a filler track, but either way, it's not a progressive song, even though it is a very long track. I'm sure there are plenty of 5 minute songs that are more progressive than this Limp Bizkit song.

[Mr Herb]

Alright. but i dunno, thats the second or third lpb convo in recent memory, I dont the lp topic should be abused. but w/e, slightly more interesting than all the cover talk.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

I agree... the cover talk is quite boring,

[Lateralias]

Especially when you don't take part :(

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Yeah, it's fun when you have something to do with the covers, but I can see how you guys would get bored just watching us have all the fun. :lol:

[Mr Herb]

Hey at least the covers have inspired me to start working on stuff for the band so that I can show it to anyone online. Ive already worked out 3 songs this week :)


I wonder why the covers have taken so lonf, The laterlaus part I heard only needed vocals and some dude had already singed a bit.

thomas haake and terry bozzio are the only ones i now of but im sure there has been more :)

[Kage]

No.

[Doomed To Crumble]

hey i just heard that 46&2 cover and i just want to say that it was amazing, and extra props to the drummer.:)

[Mr Herb]

:amaze: thomas haake and terry bozzio are the only ones i now of but im sure there has been more :) who do they play for?

[Darkness]

Tomas Haake = Meshuggah... very amazingly good drummer.

[Futuro]

:amaze: who do they play for?
teryy bozzio = GOD

thomas haake = overplays polyrythms that arent that musical, but is still good

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Meshuggah is all about playing unmusical stuff, but I greatly admire them for their abilities in collaboratively writing a piece of that fits together, but would not fit anywhere else.

Stengah- I think it's in 13/8 time. wtf? :lol: I think the most impressive part about that song is that their guitarist(s) solo is also in that time sig. It's hard enough to solo as well as they do, but to do it in a funky time sig, that's doubly impressive.

[BlindWriting]

thomas haake and terry bozzio are the only ones i now of but im sure there has been more :)
Woah. When did that happen?
Dare I ask, is there a video? Or at the very least, pixplzkthx?

[BlindWriting]

Stengah- I think it's in 13/8 time. wtf? :lol:
The thing about odd time is that the more you play it, and the more beats that you create in, say, 9/8, 12/8, or even 25/8, which I've been working with recently, the less complex it beings to feel to your ears.

When I first heard Danny Carey and Tomas Haake play in their respective bands, I was boggled by the rhythms and the way they sounded. So, I began dabbling in odd time, starting with the usual 5/4, 7/4. 9/8 type of thing. (I don't consider 6/8 or 3/4 odd.) By the time I was working with weird compound times such as 12/8, 15/8, 26/8, and the like, you begin to understand them, and listen to them, in a much different way.

Once you free yourself from the habit of counting and playing in fours, you'll be surprised at what you can do simply.

To sum it up: practice!

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Terry Bozzio? He may be the best drummer who ever lived in my eyes.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I wonder why the covers have taken so lonf, The laterlaus part I heard only needed vocals and some dude had already singed a bit.

We're not using that one. The drums are MIDI. The guy that posted it never showed up again, so I don't think we should use it. :shrug: Plus, we have a perfectly good drum track already, so why would we want to use the MIDI drums?

Who does Terry Bozzio play for?

BW- The hard part is constructing something listenable out of it.

[BlindWriting]

Bozzio played for Frank Zappa, I believe. He had a song called The Black Page which is one of his most famous drum solos. Overall, still one of the best living players.

[ThePatient]

I think I'll be good to go with the Ticks & Leeches cover if anyone wanted to put that together. There's just parts in there where I can't here a thing on the bass, so little parts may be self-written.

*waits for Joz to pop in with a recording playing the song behind his back*

your odd times suck .....go to the drumforum and learn how to count properly cause 25/8 is just playing 5 bars of 5, which would be easier, and if its impossible to count your 25 rythm in 5 explain how you are counting and i will tell you if you are right, and if im just being an asshole.

How is 25/8 5 bars of 5? That would be 25/4 timing. 25/8 timing is 5 bars of 5/8 timing (which is 2.5 beats, not 5). Now, last time I checked, 5/8 timing is a little strange to play in.

:rolleyes: when phrasing odd times into sentences you normally stay on one note duration, or else notate what duration you are speaking about at the time of change. If you have ever even glanced at sheet music you would know this. Good example would be symphony X, they have a passage that refers to a triplet style 23/16, the next passage is a 21/16, there is no notation of what the note duration is for this, because most people educated in odd times will know that 21/4 is plain idiotic.

And since when does everything revolve around quarter notes? if things were how you say (which they arent) then saying 5 by itself would be like saying 5/1 not 5/4, like you said. (5/1 would be plain stupid)

Wow, you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. You said 25/8 is 5 bars of 5. That is exactly what you said. And than in this post you say that saying 5 by itself would be like saying 5/1 not 5/4, "like I said." Well, you said 5 by itself. When you refer to the number of beats in a bar, it is most often based off of quarter notes. For example, let's use 5/4 b/c as I hope you know, 5/1 isn't an actual timing. Divide 5 by 4. It equals 1.25. Multiply that by 4, it equals 5. Quarter notes is what almost every musician uses and bases things like this off of. 4/4 has 4 beats in it. 3/4 has 3. 5/4 has 5. 5/8 has 2.5 beats in it (or if you prefer, 5 eigth notes). 5/4 and 5/8 are not the same thing (same goes for 21/16 and 21/4). The reason quarter notes are used most often is because it's the easiest to use and it's extremely unusual to have a bar that is less than one quarter note.

you need to reread my post.

[Rounder]

umm this post confuses and angers me. I havnet read sheet music in a long time, but the way Ive always understood time signatures is this. The first note in the fraction is how many notes in the measure. The second note is the type/duration of the note.

7/8= seven eighth notes per measure.
7/4 seven quarter notes per measure.

25/8 would be one measure with 25 eighth notes.
25/4 would be one measure with 25 quarter notes.

also, its only important to have all your notes equal what the time signature reads. You can have a dotted eighth note followed by 2 quarter notes and that would be 5/8.

or so i think.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Your post makes more sense now that you edited it, but you need to reread my post because you don't seem to be understanding what I'm saying.

Not to beat a dead horse, but...

1. Firstly, I meant 26/8. A simple typo. I mentioned 26 later.

2. If I'm playing something like 9/8, I don't break it up into 3, 3, and 3. If I'm playing 15/8, I don't break it up into 5, 5, and 5, etc.

3. You seem like a much more musically knowledgable guy, so I guess I misunderstood something with my own stuff.

Ok guys, I come to you bearing more good news.

MagicalTroll is going to do Stinkfist bass, and he said perhaps Lateralus.

We're not quite down a JoZ, but he's been absent for quite some time...:-/ I talk to him, and he says he'll have them done, but he always 'get's busy' or something. :p

I'll IM Chris and ask him to join us.

Should I record with my stereo capabilities or should I keep my track panned to one side?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Since you do have a POD and you could get the highest quality out of us all, I think it would be suiting if you did so, Chris. :thumb:

[3074326]

Heck yeah man.

Check my last post for an edit.

[Kage]

My recording quality is great, I just haven't had the time to really get a good recording yet. I've been recording a lot with my own band lately, so all my time is used up with that, and I'm usually burned out of it by the end of our sessions.

The most expensive one is the XT Live. It's $399.99 USD. I can teach you about it if you want. :p

I'll have to start working on a Toolish tone. I have loads of metal ones.

You can get one of those red kidney shaped ones for like 200 though, can't you? Those are still pretty pristine.

If you're talking about me, then yes, I am a guitarist. But I can play bass just as good, I play it alot in this church band me and my friend play in everyonce in awhile.

I'm gonna try to have the tracks up on... Tuesday-ish.

[3074326]

I was posting somthing that I felt like talking about at the moment. There's no need for you to come in late, bash somthing that I like, then tell me to stop posting about somthing that I felt I wanted to at the moment.

When Tool tours again, I am sure everyone here is going to try and go as many times possible. I don't care where I have to fly, I'm going...

When I saw APC last year, I kinda just sat back in my chair and was in complete awe, I didn't get into it, but I was completely absorbed...I'm not sure if anyone else had a similar experience or not. I just remember feeling like I've been punched in the stomach the whole concert, I was numb to actually be able to hear the music live and see the band, especially Maynard perform. I remember when he sang Orestes, I just kinda let my jaw hit the floor and close my eyes and I was gone...I almost got emotional, it was just beautiful.

Will anyone do the same w/ Tool? I don't want to be in the Mosh Pit, I just kinda want to just lose myself in the music and not be distracted by anything/anyone...I want to just connect, if that makes any sense. This might make any sense whatsoever, but I was just wondering if anyone will do the same.

I will be @ the front at tool, anyone moshing will be a little kid, and so will get knocked the fvck out by me and probably other fans. Though moshing normally doesn't take place right at the barrier is should be alright. If the support is moshable i may give it a go though.

That's EXACTLY what I'd like to do at a concert like that.
So that got me thinking, that I probably wouldn't bring a friend, seeing how all my friends aren't into Tool the way I am really. It's just another cool band for them. And there's nothing wrong with that, but they would just be distracting me when I'm trying to "connect".

I'm sure a lot of you read Toolband, but here it is for anyone who hasn't seen this.
Man... He needs to hurry up then.

[3074326]

I hope they play somewhere with seats in Ohio. Too many idiots ruin concerts..

Can't wait for the album though.

[Txus]

When Tool tours again, I am sure everyone here is going to try and go as many times possible. I don't care where I have to fly, I'm going...

When I saw APC last year, I kinda just sat back in my chair and was in complete awe, I didn't get into it, but I was completely absorbed...I'm not sure if anyone else had a similar experience or not. I just remember feeling like I've been punched in the stomach the whole concert, I was numb to actually be able to hear the music live and see the band, especially Maynard perform. I remember when he sang Orestes, I just kinda let my jaw hit the floor and close my eyes and I was gone...I almost got emotional, it was just beautiful.

Will anyone do the same w/ Tool? I don't want to be in the Mosh Pit, I just kinda want to just lose myself in the music and not be distracted by anything/anyone...I want to just connect, if that makes any sense. This might make any sense whatsoever, but I was just wondering if anyone will do the same.

/preps himself for flaming

That is exactly how i feel about going to a tool concert i will just smoke some pot and loose myself in the beauty of the music. :D

UNEARTHLINKED
For various reasons, I am switching my internet provider tomorrow and therefore might be living in the Stone Age for a day or so. Hopefully, it will be a smooth transition, and when I get back online I will give you the skinny on this "Teleincision" business that I keep getting emails about.

NOW WHERE WAS I...

Oh yeah, "Teleincision." If only it was that easy. Justin and Shelee's store is called Lobal Orning! Here's what one emailer wrote: ""Teleincision is the big new Tool rumor right now, but what most people don't know is that its origin was from the toolshed.down.net opinion forum." So, perhaps, we can put this one to rest?



From tooband.
Can anyone think up why the hell would Blair mention Justins store there? Theres probably something scretet there! someone must decode it :) or its just probably bull

[Mr Herb]

Tool will never ever come to puerto rico and I will only fly to the US once this year for a school thngt. :(

[BlindWriting]

Of course, Blair would never be direct with anyone. What the hell was I thinking?

So does this mean Teleincision was just a fan-made rumor, nothing more?

[Mr Herb]

Now that I think about it, its jsut bull, hes telling us right there that it was originated in the tool shed opinion forum. bah sucks. blair is one clever dude. Anyways am gonna hope its true.

[bass24]

this is the offical tool thread, tooooooools. go hit another power chord fags.

I don't know what you said, but you should probably leave now.

[Mr Herb]

Yes, July one first concert on Alaska, Aroon Carter will be opening :p

[Kage]

Damn Blair and his cryptic ways!

[Rothmans]

Yes, July one first concert on Alaska, Aroon Carter will be opening :p

Is that sarcasm?

DOnt play with my heart like that.

[Mr Herb]

But I think that was pretty easy to decifer. jsut a rumor it seems. Hope its not.

[Kage]

I know, but that's just the thing. I wish he would just come out and say what he means. Okay, so the Teleincision rumor isn't true, but what the hell is?

[Mr Herb]

Is that sarcasm?

DOnt play with my heart like that.lol just messing around, inject some life into this thread. :)

[Lateralias]

Blair is right though.. this all started at Toolnavy.. (Toolshed forums)

[Mr Herb]

I know, but that's just the thing. I wish he would just come out and say what he means. Okay, so the Teleincision rumor isn't true, but what the hell is?
Who knows. If he jsut came out and said stuff itd be sorta better but I dunno, itd be lest thrilling i guess. Still hes jsut way to secretive sometimes

[BlindWriting]

I guess the infamous http://www.teleincision.com is all fan-created bull as well.

[Kage]

It could be band-created bull.

[Rothmans]

I guess the infamous http://www.teleincision.com is all fan-created bull as well.


Yeah they even said on tool navy that it was.

[Lateralias]

All I can say to you guys that are starving for Tool news (me included) is that when we hear the album... it'll be one massive dose of heroin. Tool might take their sweet time between albums (an average of 4 years) but they make up for what they release.

[Mr Herb]

ah how I wish it was true, but who knows perhaps its true.


Volto is the ****.

[Lateralias]

ah how I wish it was true, but who knows perhaps its true.

Indeed. Its actually good that they do this, Ive noticed that most bands that realease tons of albums suck and die out quickly. :thumb:

[BlindWriting]

I still haven't heard any Volto.

[Rothmans]

IM starting to think people give blair too much of a hard time.

[Mr Herb]

Yeah I really dig Volto... John Z is awesome
I heard their stuff on my space, were can I fand more stuff? Do they have a cd out or anything?

[clearvision]

Why he's too cryptic with stuff that is important.

No, Blair definitely takes pleasure out of what he does.

Yeah.. one band that has and is still great would have to be Iron Maiden.. they chugged out albums back in the 80's.. but they haven't gotten close to dying out.

[Mr Herb]

Also Blair has a contract with the band, he can only say the stuff the band wants to say, if he says more hes out!

[Lateralias]

I heard their stuff on my space, were can I fand more stuff? Do they have a cd out or anything?

I forgot the site.. but they had a few Volto samples and a few of them I think were complete songs.. but as far as I know I don't think they have any CDs about.

[Mr Herb]

Yeah.. one band that has and is still great would have to be Iron Maiden.. they chugged out albums back in the 80's.. but they haven't gotten close to dying out. True but am sure theyve made their share of ****ty songs or albums.

I don't really dig Danny's drumming for Volto (though I still like it somewhat)... well it's easy to understand because he plays pretty basic in Volto.. not to basic.. but it's not Tool-Dannyesque, not even close IMO.

[Mr Herb]

Volto is more jazz like wich is great. The best drummers ever were jazzist. I think.


Volto is also like a jam band, they really do play cause they enjoy it, not money really. They should realease a cd anyways.

[clearvision]

The best drummers ever were jazzist. I think..

I love you.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

They have the most complex music to play...

[Mr Herb]

I love you.Cause I am musical elitist? or because I say stupid stuff? or is it my grammer? :confused: :p

Hey Chris- Thanks for being so quick with your recording, man. It's a big track, and I was getting anxious for some new recordings. Best of luck with finishing. Hopefully my dialup will actually let me DL the file this time. I have yet to hear Marshall's drumming. :p

I've tried and tried and tried, but the at about 60% through the download, I get this message saying "ERROR: The server has been reset"

jake for the verse riff (of stinkfist)what are the two main notes played? ( i would like to see if a can match up a chime with one of the notes for some cool effects)

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

It goes from D to F, back to D, then to G

The second part of the verse goes A, G, F, D.

:confused: Not sure how much help that was, but for sure, you want one tuned to D. :p

No problem. I used to know this song so it's not too difficult to play now.

I'm not too sure about the verse riffs though. I recorded what I think he plays/what I think sounds best, but I'm not sure if it's right. His guitar sound is so percussive in the verses..

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Ohh yeah, that's Lateralus, good call. :p Stinkfist verse would be E and D

EE EE D/EE EE D

That's how the rythm goes...kind of. :lol:

And Chris, if it fits with the song, it shouldn't be a problem. :shrug:

when i did drum track it happened once :upset:

[3074326]

Haha, picks the best times to do that.

The drum track rules, by the way. I put some compressor on the drums and mixed them a bit too. They sound a bit better now. We still have the hiss in the intro, but it's okay. :p

[BlindWriting]

I just bought a Tool bootleg for twenty bucks at a used record store. I'll give the info, in case anyone's interested.

It's called Tool – The Ultimate Ultra Rare Trax
1. Calling Dr. Love (from a Kiss tribute album, with Maynard on vox.)
2. Rev 22:20 (something from the Underworld soundtrack that Maynard did with Danny Lohner. If you liked the Judith remix, it's kind of similar.)
3. Passenger (from Deftones – White Pony.)
4. Santa Monica & Orange (a song by a band called Love Jones, with Maynard doing guest vox.)
5. Choked (some group collab. with Maynard doing some vox.)
6. Muhammad My Friend (Maynard's live duet with Tori Amos.)
7. Divorced (The Melvins, with Tool)
8. Sober (demo)
9. Part of Me (demo)
10. Hush (demo)
11. Crawl Away (demo)
12. Jerk Off (demo)
13. Cold and Ugly (demo)
14. Spasm (Peach cover)
15. Wrong Way (Sublime cover)
16. Kill The Revolution (the Rage Against the Machine/Tool collab. demo thing)

I'm normally hesitant about buying bootleg related stuff, just because the material isn't always great, but it was the full band covers and demos that sold me. A lot of this was just Maynard doing guest vocals on various projects, but I'm only on the second song, so I'll let you know how the rest of it goes.

[Futuro]

Haha, picks the best times to do that.

The drum track rules, by the way. I put some compressor on the drums and mixed them a bit too. They sound a bit better now. We still have the hiss in the intro, but it's okay. :pheh ...sorry bout that... i dont know much about sound EQing so i left the track dry, and the hiss i think is from my mic.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Could you listen to the Kill the Revolution and tell me how good the quality is? I have a version of it, but it's very muddy, so if you could, I'd looove to hear that version, if it's any better.

[3074326]

heh ...sorry bout that... i dont know much about sound EQing so i left the track dry, and the hiss i think is from my mic.

No worries. I can just hear it in the intro really.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Chris, when you upload it, do you think you could upload the guitar track seperate? Just because, if you juxtapose them now, it may be harder to mix the entire song later on down the road once we get the bottom end in there,and of course some vox as well. You could do both, if you please. :D

[ThePatient]

I've heard some of the songs on that bootleg, the Kiss cover is great. If you can, you should YSI it. :-*

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Nice of you to stop by Patient. When do you think you could have Ticks and Leeches up? I'm trying to figure out how it would work. If I was to play the geetar on it, I would have to supply the backing track, because I have a wierd computer, so whenever I record, I have latency problems. In Layman's terms, when I record, it slowly becomes further and further out of time. I will be playing along with the track, but when I play it back along with the track I played along to, my track becomes progressively slower and slower in comparison the the other. :-/ That's what we did for Stinkfist, so I hope this would work for you on Ticks and Leeches. Oh and also, I think it would be beneficial for us if we cut some of the middle section out. I see very little purpose for it to be there. Granted, I know Tool put it there for some reason, but for this, I doubt it would get us any more votes for having a 3 minute segue of the the same 2 chords over and over. :-/ What are your thoughts on this?

[ThePatient]

Just give me a deadline for when you want it done, and I'll do it by then. I lack motivation skills and need to know things like these. :p I really doubt I'll be able to have it done this week. My keyboardist is coming back from Spain tommorow, so I have a feeling I'll be with my band everyday this week.

I may have missed it in your post, but what did you do to solve the slowing down?

When you say middle part, I assume you mean the really slow guitar part, with the bass going on the whammy, which was all I was going to do anyway because I don't really know what's going on there. If you just give me the time, beginning and end, of what should be cut out, I can work from there.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Well, I think we should do the interlude for maybe 2 measures or so, just as a transition and as something cool and random. I love the feel of that it adds to the song, just not the excessiveness of it.

The slowing down thing doesn't effect it much. We're talking hundredths of a second, but it slows it down enough that you can tell it's not sync'd with the song, but if you just played my track, it doesn't sound off tempo.

As for a deadline, the end of the competition is August first, so we have a good 4-5 weeks left, but I would like to think I could get the guitar done within this week, and that would leave you with it for a week, then a week for drums and vox, and we should be right as rain.

[Mr Herb]

I agree jake dude that the interlude should be sorta of a quick transition, but perhaps It might not go so well if its really really short so I think it should be more than 2 measures but w/e am jsut bored and wanted to post :)

[Huber]

Just do two phrases of it, that'll work.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Sliptallica, would you want to do the drumming?

[Huber]

Sliptallica, would you want to do the drumming?

Sure, I'd love to. I never know when I get the opportunity to play though, so it'll be kinda random.

[BlindWriting]

Kill The Revolution is about the same. All in all, not worth twenty bucks, but had some interesting things. I'll YSI a few songs tomorrow.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Bummer. I'm still looking for a higher quality recording of this collaboration, but I doubt I'll find one. :-/

Sliptallica- Sounds like a plan. Hopefully we'll have a more concrete plan soon.

[Futuro]

hey if we do parabol/parabola i would much like to drum on that.....

What songs have we choosen to do, anyways? Lateralus and 46&2?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

In addition to those, Stinkfist, Ticks and Leeches, Ænema, perhaps Parabola. I think there are more, but I can't think of what they are at the moment. :p

Who is doing the T&L scream?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Moses/letmypeopleho

I really doubt he's going to use the same method as Maynard did, but it'll still turn out cool, I hope.

Speaking of Ticks & Leeches, I cut the intermission section out, minus 2 measures, and it clocks in a just over 6 minutes. I'm having trouble getting the rythm right for the beginning of the third section, where it's the riff of the middle section, but played an octave higher. If someone could tell me the time signature it's in, it would help a lot. Parts of the song are in 4/4, some are in 7/8..so yeah, clarification would be sweet.

EG ... AJIG finds out clearvision is going to the gig, but is now not looking forward to it as muse and the cure have been moved and he's only semi-bothered about seeing floyd :)

Look out your window. I'm there. With the sledgehammer.

....plus its all being televised over and over and over, and means I dont have to go miles to see 10 minutes of a few bands I like.

Plus I have REM, InMe and OPETH to look forward to over the next 3 months.

I really doubt he's going to use the same method as Maynard did, but it'll still turn out cool, I hope.

Speaking of Ticks & Leeches, I cut the intermission section out, minus 2 measures, and it clocks in a just over 6 minutes. I'm having trouble getting the rythm right for the beginning of the third section, where it's the riff of the middle section, but played an octave higher. If someone could tell me the time signature it's in, it would help a lot. Parts of the song are in 4/4, some are in 7/8..so yeah, clarification would be sweet.
Maybe not as high pitched, but a little crunchier. I've only recorded a scream once and that was a while back before I developed my technique.

[clearvision]

Band of the moment - Coheed and Cambria...such feel good music, kinda progressive too, I compare them to the mars volta....

This song is more of a pop-punky number, they get more progressive, but no-one wants to listen to a 9min sample...

[Otherside]

Didn't like that song very much :\

I don't really see that much of a comparison between them and TMV, except both singers have high voices.

Just not my thing I guess...

[clearvision]

Meh maybe it was the wrong song to choose, they aren't a TMV clone in any way shape or form. They are a pop-punk band but seem to be pretty progressive. Their riffs and high vocals kinda remind me of TMV the vocals are really haunting 'now I'm lost' kinda style.

[Moses]

I like them too. I never was one for the pop-punk stuff, but when that first single came out it was infectious.

[Neurotoxin]

I enjoy Coheed as well. A talented rock band I'd say.

Why the extra amp on lateralus?

[Rothmans]

Why the extra amp on lateralus?

More cusomizable tone and a more solid tone.

[Mr Herb]

i see. Were can I see the stuff Justin uses? I am thinking about buying an effect for my bass, perhaps id like to use what he uses:)

[Rothmans]

Toolshed have a few stuff aobut htem hold on I will get it for ye.

Sorry all it says is boss and digitech but if you are really really bothered there are some stuff on there in the articles you can fish around in.

[Mr Herb]

a screw it I jsut realized I cant buy **** cause am saving for a trip to NY.

[Artemician]

I like Coheed too. Funny, I thought most people here would hate them.

[Artemician]

Hey, my avatar didn't get screwed up. Alright.

Sorry for the double post.

[clearvision]

Your avatar is screwed up, because it is saved in your temp it wont look like that :)

I just learnt the first part of In keeping secrets of silent earth 3, the song. :cool: that riff owns.

[BlindWriting]

Tonight I'll YSI some of that Tool stuff I got yesterday. A few songs.

I thought he had a Marshal as well as the Diezel and Mesa(s).

[Lateralias]

Anyone know what Adam used to get the Pushit Live tone?... It's one of the best I've ever heard. It's mainly the tone in the intro I'm talking about.. cause I know he throws in more distortion when the chords come in.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Hey very well could have one, but hey, that list is more thorough than most I've seen.

Oh and for the guy looking for Justin's bass effect(s)- Just get a Digitech BP200. It has more than you need, and they're really a good deal for the amount of stuff you get with it. You get whammy, wah, delay, gain, and a myriad of other crap. Either that, or just save up for New York. I'd much rather have an effects pedal than a trip to New York. That's just me, I have a thing against the city for some reason. :shrug:

Lateralias- I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say it was his Mesa amp, with about 60-70% gain, and of course, some delay. For the live version, it's less gain, and perhaps a little chorus.

[Syncratic]

I would've thought that Adam used more effects.

[Lateralias]

I would've thought that Adam used more effects.

He does... there is a Tool pic of the floor and there are TONS of pedals and stuff... I don't think they covered all of them in that post.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

That's his basic rig. On Triad, he uses tons more, but typically, that's all he really uses, and needs IMO.

[Futuro]

i know one thing he uses often that was forgotten, a leslie cabinate processor, thats why when there live on all there trippy songs it seems that the speakers are rotating :cool:


and my stinkfist sucks so im not uploading :upset:

[The JoZ]

Erh, hi guys.

I know I've promised recordings and re-recordings for a while now. I promise I haven't forgotten, but I've been really busy...but I still really want to do them.

I will endeavor to have some or all of them to you in the next couple of days.

[BlindWriting]

The rumor around this thread was that you were killed in a skydiving accident. Glad to know you're still with us.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

JoZ- Do Lateralus and Ænema.

BW- Who said that? :lol: /missed out

[The JoZ]

The rumor around this thread was that you were killed in a skydiving accident. Glad to know you're still with us.

While that would be quite an interesting (read: painful) way to kick the bucket, I am still very much alive and kicking :cool:

Anyone happen to have any new info on the new album?

[BlindWriting]

Anyone happen to have any new info on the new album?
Nothing other than official (though still quite cryptic) word that the name Teleincision is just a fan-made rumor.

[Syncratic]

I bet the guy who created the name 'Teleincision' is laughing his fat arse off at this.

He does... there is a Tool pic of the floor and there are TONS of pedals and stuff... I don't think they covered all of them in that post.

I thought so......anyway, what songs does Adam use the Epilady on? My friend told me that he does it on The Grudge.

[3074326]

I have Justin's gear somewhere on my computer.

I know he uses Wal basses (as well as a Sting-Ray), and Mesa M-Pulse heads with Mesa cabinets.

I also know that he uses a Pro-Co Rat distortion pedal. That's all I can recall at the moment.

I don't think he uses it in The Grudge. I know it's used in Triad.

[Syncratic]

I don't think he uses it in The Grudge. I know it's used in Triad.

That makes a whole load of sense now. THAT'S how he gets those sounds....:cool:

[Huber]

I got enough time to do one take of Ticks and Leeches but botched it up on the second verse. In other words...

/fails

I'll try again another time I guess.

No, he doesn't use Pro-Co, he uses the Boss ODB3.

And he used it on H, Aenema, Third Eye, Schism, Parabola, and maybe others.

[Rothmans]

Joz?

where have you been man?
and your avatar is still messed up.

[The JoZ]

I don't know why it is, I reloaded it a while back.

And I've been busy / avoiding the place.

[Rothmans]

Why avoiding?

and there is no news on the new album.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

PageCobain- Actually no, I think you're thinking of the Virus sythesizer. He only uses the Epilady on Triad, or so I've heard. 307 says the odd noises throughout The Grudge are the Virus synth. He could probably elaborate on it a bit, but there you have it.

Chris- Any news on Lateralus?

MagicalTroll- If you see this, today is Tuesday. :p No hard feelings if you've got nothing so far. Everyone that has set a due date for themselves hasn't kept to it. (Including my self)

and I feel so jipped over that teleinsicion site.... :upset:

[Otherside]

It's not like Blair has completely dismissed the DVD. Keep hopefull.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Rothmans- I hang out here wayy to much. My postcount ITT reflects that. :p

Otherside- I doubt if Blair has yet to dismiss the April Fool's rumors. I think it's funny how every Tool fan(at least on Toolnavy) hates him, but if I was in that position, I would be toying with the fans the exact same way. :evil:

So, I picked up Blackwater Park today. I just listened to The Leper Affinity. It was pretty amazing, but I'm not too big on the growls. :-/ Never really have been a fan of that kind of vocals, but on the other hand, every thing is amazing. Mikael's clean vocals, the guitar parts aren't too technical, but the solos are very expressive. The drum is pretty insane at parts as well. I can definitely see my self getting into these guys. Maybe they will be my gateway into more death metal.

[Lateralias]

It's not like Blair has completely dismissed the DVD. Keep hopefull.

Yeah really, I'm pretty positive they will release a live DVD eventually.. whether before or after the new album.. and hopefully not TOO long if it's after, cause after all.. it is a Lateralus tour DVD.

[Rothmans]

No I know that there is a dvd coming out but for some reason I do think something is coming out on the 16th of august but my best guess is november.

Opeth are a gateway for some people.. they were for me, though I still always listen to Opeth (one of my favorites). I recommend Damnation and then just kinda hop around on BWP or Still Life and let the vocals just grow on you.. it takes time but it will happen. :) I'll help you if you want any uploads Jake.

[Otherside]

Opeth's vocals will grow on you. If you havn't, download To Bid You Farewell asap
