So, am I just imagining things, or didn't the August Newsletter feature a story about Axl Rose and a turkey with 2 hearts? I can't seem to find discussion about it on this thread anymore and it seems to not be in the August Newsletter anymore. Was I just imagining things? I feel like I'm in a Philip K. Dick story.

[Kage]

Someone else posted the exact same question as you some pages back and there was extensive discussion on it.

[Kage]

It's a good question, but I have no clue what the hell it's talking about, because I don't really read those newsletters.

I guess no one else does either, given the amount of response the question has gotten.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

I can't even find what you are talking about. Maybe no one ever did answer my question. I could have sworn it was in the newsletter ****it! hah. Where the hell did it go?

[Kage]

There wasn't even extensive discussion about it, I was just giving you a hard time since you've posted that question before with no luck.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Oh, okay. :lol: Why would you want to do that to poor 'ol me?

I agree, but with all his metaphors and shi.t, it can really get irratating after a while, like the start of the August newsletter, wtf. But it clears up after awhile.I never knew about those newsletters until August.funny.

I doubt you'd be allowed to be anything else. You give up too much information, and then you get sued by the record label.

It's actually called Passenger, and I have it but I'm not at home right now. I'll upload it later if you still need it, though

its alright.


really not anything FANTASTIC but its worth a listen or two

I think it is fantastic, actually.

Passenger is definately fantastic

Definitely. That is mine and the girl I love's song. She loves Tool and Deftones, just like me.

I think that song f*cking rocks.. I would have never pegged Maynard's and Chino's voices to work so well together..

Now on "Revolution" with Tool & RATM, Zak's (that's his name right..?) and Maynard's voice had no chemistry whatsoever.. The bands on the other hand f*cking rocked my socks, man..

A bright yellow Opeth shirt.





Seriously. I would buy one in a heartbeat if they made them.

[clearvision]

A green one would be cooler.

Or a black one maybe?

I would much rather want a Tool shirt. A black one.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

The black ones are still cool. Mine has gold writing and the album art on it

Not to mention there are so many other concerts I could go to. Those are just the ones I want to go to the most.

Nottingham has its moments. We get Nevermore in October, Opeth in November and loads more bands that only i probably find cool (Bloc party, Trivium) playing

[clearvision]

I've never heard nevermore.

Bloc party suck, trivium are ok.

I might go to Nottingham Uni :eek:

[Adam Jones is GOD]

I've not heard Nevermore, but from the amount of talk about them, I should.

Nottingham Uni, or Nottingham Trent? Both are cool, and trent is literally behind rock city

Nevermore own live and in studio. Listen. Now.

[Shadows Rise]

I'm going to see Black Dahlia Murder, Between the Buried and Me, and Into the Moat(i think) september 24th, then Opeth October 30th. I don't really like Into the Moat that much but holy crap, they are awesome musicians.

Guy was at the concert too.


I was on the right hand side of the stage, so drums were obscured all gig, but I did have a perfect view of the rest of the band. Face Of Melinda was spine tingling, Deliverance owned so hard as an opener (mad strobe lights and smoke effects). Blackwater Park may have caused me permanent neck injuries, and I went into full metal growl 'yuuuuuuuaaaaaaarrrrrreeeeessss!' when they announced Baying Of The Hounds

They played all the songs I wanted (except I also wanted the whole Still Life album), and the crowd was one of the best i've been in, no retarded moshing, just good ol' fashioned energy and headbanging

[Dude3]

That sounds like it was a great show man! Now I really want to go see them.

[Darkness]

Please come to Edmonton Opeth... please...

Im hoping I can see them again when they come to Notts. Less travelling at least, plus bigger venue (with cheaper beer)

[Killtacular]

The growls are more of an aquired taste. I didn't like them at first, either, but now they don't bother me. I even kind of like them.

[Darkness]

Believe it or not, I always hated growls untill I heard Blackwater Park (song). It was love at first site.

[Matter]

Ya the only thing that keeps Opeth from being one of my fave bands is the throwing up in the mic part...his singing voice is beautiful and the musicianship is top notch..but I got used to Dream theater vocals I'm sure I can at least learn to tolerate the growling even if I dont like it.

BTW I saw thier new video on headbangers ball the other night....pretty good.

[Killtacular]

They shortened the song by a large quantity. Bastards.

Yeah the video is less then half the song length.

[a8o]

The songs are long, and there are some useless tracks, but above all they're pretty good. At least their lyrics mean something, and you have to actually listen to the music to get the meaning or whatever. It's not just some useless "I f*cking hate you" bs, but thats my own opinion


I've been listening to Tool for about 7 or 8 years and 'Lateralus' is their best work closely followed by Opiate. The way I see it, Undertow and AEnima are too long and undiscrimintating in song choices to be anything more than just 'very good' albums, certainly not the great records rabid Tool fans argue they are. As good as 'Disgustipated' is to listen to high, it should have been its own EP. I hear a bit of Led Zeppelin in this middle Tool period, but its there sorts of tracks that detract from the coherent artistic statement. Like Zeppelin there's always genre disputes - prog, rock, metal?

Unlike, say, 'Physical Graffiti', 'AEnima' isn't all songs and has a lot of crap; I like bits of 'Third Eye', but at the end of such a long album it needed to be more dynamic to hold my interest, 'Hooker With A *****' is a good track, but sitting between fillers 'Message to Harry Manbeck' and 'Intermission'. 'Die Eier Von Satan', on the other hand, is childish. It's really here in the middle this record starts to dip; it can't sustain the quality of the three killer opening tracks. I could trim this album to around an hour and lost little.

By 'Lateralus' they'd figured out pacing a bit better. There's probably a little more excellent material here than on 'AEnima', but it seems finally each song fits into the context of the album. It's not hard to figure out what they're trying to say here, but they really just play some good apocalyptic rock and roll. There's not really much wrong with it, here's hoping they do something more like 'Opiate' next time.

I just really jotted down a bunch of sentences here in some kind of logical order.

[Shadius]

Ænima has Tool's best songs on it, in my opinion. Yes, there's a lot of filler, but thats there for fun, you can skip it. Lateralus is an amazing album too, I like it about as much as Ænima because, as you say, it's more cohesive, but the songs in themselves don't always stick out as much to me as ones on Ænima, as brilliant as they are.

Regardless, both are two of my favourite all time albums.

As for Opiate being one of their best releases... meh. Opiate is an EP, and it's practically nu-metal. Good nu metal, but it's nothing on their later work. (I do enjoy it though) The songs lack the overall quality of their other stuff, and it's so short, so I don't know how you could call it one of their best releases up there with Lateralus. Undertow has some brilliant moments, and I enjoy it too, but again, I feel the quality of songwriting just went up to a whole other level on Ænima, filler or not.

i have hush and jerk-off off opiate, they were harsher then, but nu-metal??

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Aenima is definitely their most well-done album in my eyes because it not only has brilliant prog songs, but it progresses as an album too. My favorite songs are Stinkfist, Push!t, Third Eye, and Eulogy...and all are on Aenima, so naturally that would be my favorite album.

Lateralus is a great album, but IMO it's more repetitive; every song on it sounds sludgy except for maybe Schism.

Undertow has a few quality songs, but it has some crap and poor recording quality.

Opiate is basically just a heavy rock/metal album that I listen to to get me pumped. Cold and Ugly and Part of Me are just great heavy/aggressive songs.

[Feign]

Ænima is possibly the best tool album indeed. But the thing you've gotta love about tool is their exploration with albums. Each album focuses on a specific theme and the songs of that album just simply break down those themes making it more explanatory; eg: Opiate- "Question Authority" or Lateralus- "Reconciliation/Thinking outside the lines (Lateral thinking)". Through Tool's music we get a different perspective about life as a whole. Tool is definately one of the best bands to ever exist as it gives science, psycology, philosophy a sound.

Hello everyone I have not been around for a little while.

Its nice to see some good Tool discussion again.

Lateralus is still my favorite Tool album, followed by Ænima, but its not that close... I don't know why... but Lateralus is the best for me.

Can anyone suggest any Melvins? I haven't heard much of them and wish to, so if anyone could reccomend some of their best stuff, that would grand.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

What do you mean by that?

The former half of the album with songs like Stinkfist, 46 & 2, and H. are shorter less prog songs but are still good. As you get later into the album (with a few exceptions) the songs get more progressive and the fillers get more interesting. The more progressive songs at the beginning (Eulogy) are not as drawn out and experimental as the later prog songs as Push!t and Third Eye.

Just a small observation. But I think the album flows/progresses better on Aenima than on Lateralus.

Eulogy is extremely drawn out though. I think one of the things I don't like about Aenima is that not all the parts of the songs work. I hate the ending to the song Aenema. Eulogy has a couple weak parts. I don't really like H much, and I really don't like Jimmy. Lateralus has an interesting track order. The Grudge works as an opener (although Parabol/Parabola would be ****ing awesome too). I like where The Patient is too, and I think that flows fine into Mantra into Schism. I hate how Ticks and Leeches is after Parabola. It just doesn't seem to fit there. I'm thinking, Parabol/Parabola to open the album. Then, much later into the album, you put The Grudge followed by Ticks and Leeches to end the album. I can understand your complaint about the repetitiveness of Lateralus. I personally don't mind it all, it's one of my favorite cds of all time, but I know where you're coming from.

[Daven]

Aenima is a great album, but i like more Lateralus. Maybe because its more proggressive, while Aenima still has some characterisitcs Undertow shows; especially the first songs. I like thw way the style of each album has advanced, to a dark feeling to a more progressive way.

[Artemician]

Yeah, each album does progress a lot. You can really see Tool's 'journey', if you will, through music. My personal favorite is and always has been Lateralus. It's just much brighter than the others and much more complex as well. I love the mathematical feel of it.

[Darkness]

Yeah I agree with Artemician. I can't wait to see the progression on the new cd... :D

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

I love the mathematical feel of it.

Weird too, because I'd much rather listen to Lateralus than do Math homework. :p

[Futuro]

Just a small observation. But I think the album flows/progresses better on Aenima than on Lateralus. same here, i think lateralus (album) was monotone, there only great album IMO was Aenima. When i hear lateralus (album) theres not a ton of difference between songs, besides Schism and Lateralus (song).

[Magicaltroll]

Does anyone know if Mr. Bungle has an album, or a bootleg, of a High School Talent show thing?

I found one that is labeled Mr Bungle, but I don't know... It's definitely weird enough.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Yeah, Lateralus definitely has that monotone sludge sound and it's too long. Still a very good album; it's just not as brilliant as so many people believe. However, it's not horrible "wanking sludge" as Pitchfork calls it.

[Magicaltroll]

I love Lateralus, I think it flows greatly.
And I don't think it's long enough :p

[Artemician]

same here, i think lateralus (album) was monotone, there only great album IMO was Aenima. When i hear lateralus (album) theres not a ton of difference between songs, besides Schism and Lateralus (song).

Normally variety would be preferable, but for some reason Lateralus' songs just flow so much better for me. Again, the whole mathematical feel is present throughtout the whole album.

EDIT: Yay! Hundredth post. This is kind of pathetic actually, I've been here longer than a lot of you and I'm only now getting my hundredth.

Triad I agree with, but in my opinon you couldn't be more wrong about Reflection and The Patient.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Reflection and the Patient are too long.

No. Eulogy, Aenema, H, and Third Eye are too long. Anyone who can't find the variety in Lateralus just hasn't listened to it enough. It's like saying every song on Master of Puppets sounds the same.

[Magicaltroll]

Reflection, Triad, and the Patient are too long.
:eek:
Reflection is too long!?!
You're crazy.

[Daven]

Triad I agree with, but in my opinon you couldn't be more wrong about Reflection and The Patient.

I agree with you, Triad is too long and it can get boring; but Reflection and The Patient arent too long, They are certainly too long if you dont like them.

Like the intro of Eulogy, but the rest of the song is awesome.

im not saying lateralus sucks, but my favorite song is on aenima, so my opinion is biased to all hell. :D

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

I think Aenima has better ambience/sound effects than Lateralus does.

Third Eye has brilliant sound effects.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

"Lateralus" has a gong!

[heavy metal kid]

I also like more Aenima than Lateralus.

Musically Lateralus is better, but Aenima's structure is brilliant.

[Prince of Darkness]

I listened to Disposition/Reflection/Traid for the first(true) time the otherday. It's great. I didn't like it at first. But when Reflection hits in with its chorus, omg. It's musically amazing. But yes Aenema has a lot of songs you feel good to, like Pus.hit and Third Eye. IMO, The Pus.hit live is better than the Studio one.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

I think the Third Eye studio version is flawless. I've actually never heard the live Push!t, surprisingly enough.

[Futuro]

The Pus.hit live is better than the Studio one. well they are basically 2 different songs, with some simalarities further into the song.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

I think the Third Eye studio version is flawless.

Nah, it doesn't have any cowbell...or a gong!

[Prince of Darkness]

You should. The Third Eye live is also amazing. IMO, MJK is a better singer live. Listen to that Live stuff on Silival. He sings beautifully. He really knows how to impress the crowd.

^^^Replying to Dried Muffin Guy :thumb:

It makes me mad that Maynard often doesn't do certain things live that he does on the record. I don't think he can hit his highest notes with very much consistency. Listen to the chorus of Reflection live...it sucks.

A song can never be too long or too short. I prefer a longer version 100x over a shorter version.

Lateralus is repetitive and some songs (can be) a little bit too long, but everything in tool has a meaning!
long + repetitve = meditation
[!? got the point ?!]

[Darkness]

I would gladdy upload the OK show. But I want something in exchange...

Don't have it.....sorry.....

****......

Did you just not bother to read my post?

I'd have to leave my comp on for approx 3 days to get the show uploaded, YSI would never allow me to upload for that long. But if i get my internet upgrade, and it's as fast as it claims then i will upload it.

[Darkness]

I'll try and upload it now anyway... just part one?

[Syncratic]

Oh...sorry.....when will you upgrade it and how long will it take?

To DoG: If you can, both.

Just uopload it please! :p Please. What do you want. I've got this MJK interview.(Interviewer - japanese American) You got that one? And...I've got alot of Tool musicvideo's(all of 'em) and 46&2 live and Push!t Live.

Holy fcuk. Just saw your new post. Soz. So ya gonna upload it?

[Darkness]

As I stated before, The Noose from APC live would perfect. But I'm uploading anyway... but if you have/can get that, please do.

[Prince of Darkness]

Soz, I don't have it... When will the upload be ready?

[Darkness]

It'll be ready when its done, don't rush me. :p I'm not even sure if it'll work, I think I've tried before and it messed up. Its going good now though.

[Prince of Darkness]

...yah but is it going to be done in the next 30min?

[Darkness]

Doubt it. Whats the difference? The link stays active for a week I believe.

[Prince of Darkness]

I've been looking for that concert for a long time. Don't blame me for wanting it, badly.

[Darkness]

I don't blame you, its an awesome concert. I remember watching it the first time... late Saturday night... me and my bassist in a black basement with it on full screen... it was awsome. But it is a rather large file.... be patient.

[Prince of Darkness]

I will...It's hard but i'll try. Hows the picture? Good quality?

[Darkness]

Incredible. My one problem with it though is on part 2, right at the end of the last song... (Lateralus) the camra messes up and the guy moves it and you don't get to see the stage anymore. But otherwise, this is the best concert I have ever seen. They could just use this for the dvd. :p

[Prince of Darkness]

OMG I want it! What's the setlist like? Mostly off Aenema or Lateralus?

[clearvision]

The setlist is something liek

Cold + Ugly
Stinkfist
The Grudge
Schism
Parabol/a
Third Eye

Lateralus
D/R/T

@Jake: Something great did happen, but now he's back...:p

I noticed you were gone. Where have you been?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I more or less got a life. :(

I've been filming some stuff for a "extreme sports" movie that I guess me and my friends are making. I jumped seventeen feet on rollerblades. :eek: We also jumped my buddy's brand new mountain board, but it wasn't as cool as me rollerblading. :-D

[Kage]

Seventeen feet? That's insane, how'd you manage that? What is a mountain board?

[ThePatient]

I saw a Tool "Radio City" DVD in a store a while ago but I couldn't buy it because I didn't have any money. I just got paid so I'll cash my check and buy it.
I was looking around a torrent site a while ago and I saw some Radio City concert there, and the guy said it was horrible quality so I didn't download it.

The OK show on a big-screen tv with awesome sound system = sex

I usually watch it every other week.

[Darkness]

Yeah I've thought about burning it to a DVD...

[ThePatient]

I had to put it on a VCD at the time, but now that I have a DVD burner I'm going to download it again and do that. And I can take it with a clean conscience since I uploaded it last time. :p

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Seventeen feet? That's insane, how'd you manage that? What is a mountain board?

We rigged up a ski rope to my friend's four wheeler, and he just floored it, I hung on, and then hit his little 2 foot high kicker going 20 miles per hour. The first time, we just set up a 4x8 peice of plywood as a landing,(I was jumping onto grass) and I totally cleared the wood, and faceplanted massive. We then propped the landing up onto a bench, so I wouldn't break my legs every time I landed. Then, we just kept moving the landing further and further back, until it reached 17 feet. I got scared after that, but my goal is to go for 20 next week. :cool:

DoG- If you burnt both parts of OK to a DVD, and sent it to me, I would totally rep you. :lol: And what's your real name, so I don't have to keep using this goofy DoG abbreviation?

[Dude3]

I did 11.5 feet on mmy bike, going off of a 1 ft high kicker. I thought that was some big air(sucks at BMX).

[Kage]

11.5 feet is a lot of air, especially for a 1ft high kicker. What Jake was doing is just insane, at least it sounds like that to me.

[Syncratic]

The download crapped out on me......

Oh, well...some other time..........

[Dude3]

Yeah, that is pretty insane. Kinda reminds me of this kid I used to know.....

His name was Ray, and he was an insane BMXer. He could pull a whole lot of crap. And he was pretty much just as good on all other "extreme sports". He could do the hugest ollies on a skateboard that I've ever seen, but he considered skateboarding a "***** sport". He was quite good on skates as well.

Now on his bike, he was just insane. He could go off that same 1ft high kicker, and clear my whole driveway(I'm guessing that's about 25 feet). He rode off of roofs. He could pull backflips, and almost pulled a superman off of some dirt ramp that was 6ft high, which we built on our neighborhodd sidewalk(funny, because it was there for weeks, and I live in one of those neighborhoods where you get reported for doing pretty much anything).

Oh yeah, he put spinning rims on his bike, along with a flamethrower.

[Darkness]

DoG- If you burnt both parts of OK to a DVD, and sent it to me, I would totally rep you. :lol: And what's your real name, so I don't have to keep using this goofy DoG abbreviation?
I'll be sure to send you a copy. :lol: My names Mike.

And the other day, my cousin who lives about 5 hours south of me went off of a 25 foot jump with his bike... he sent me the video, it was pretty intense.

[Killtacular]

I wish I had a flamethrower bike.

2) How did you do that?

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Lucid dreaming is about as far as I go with that stuff. I love when I can control my dreams.

I posted a song in the lyrics forum.......I'd greatly appreciate any comments, if you're willing.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

1) What is astral projection, in a nutshell?

2) How did you do that?

Yeah, Tool are about as musically good as listening to jail rape. Gawd.

1) Basically, you get your astral body to leave your phsyical body. Basically the real life "matrix" where your inhibitions are null. You can go anywhere, do anything, etc..

2) See: Meditation 102. Go to the politics subforum in the pit. There are some very good informative posts in there. I'll grab a link, but if you get to it before me, read the first page, and read the links.

[Kage]

Lucid dreaming is about as far as I go with that stuff. I love when I can control my dreams.
What is lucid dreaming? Maybe I should get in on some of this stuff. It sounds interesting, to say the least.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Lucid dreaming is basically a dream where you're in control of the events that happen. Again, read this thread (http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=331239) for some insight on how to control your dreams. First few pages will have some info on it. Look for "The dot method."

[Kage]

This is wild...you say you've almost astrally projected? How long did it take you to get to that point?

I think I need a stress reliever in my life, maybe this will do the trick.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I've been practicing for about two weeks. Usually for half an hour to forty-five minutes at a time, but when I partially got out, it took about eighty minutes of meditating.

[Kage]

80 minutes of meditating? I still have no idea how to actually do it, but I'm still early in the thread.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

You just lay there, trying to clear your mind, focusing your mind on certain things. I usually float back from concentrating on trying to see with my third eye, trying to make my limbs go numb(mainly by just holding them still for so long), and that extremely high pitched whistle in your head. Just read up on it, let it soak in, and try it.

[Dude3]

I want to Astral Project soooooooo bad. I'm just not totally sure how to do it.

Like, what am I suppost to be doing to make it happen? How should I practice? What state of mind do I need to be in?


I have a good idea so far, but I'm still confused. I did get really close one time, listening to the song "Lateralus" while I was falling asleep. I started getting a tingling sensation, which was VERY awkward. Then I started feeling numb from my legs and upwards.

[Syncratic]

Is there anything that enables communication telepathically? I'd love to try that.

Also, "Sunshine" is still up in SW&L.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Nah, I doubt you would have gotten out while listening to music. When you're having an out of body exprience, you're more relaxed than you are when you're sleeping. This means no stimulant of any kind. :p Complete silence, no distractions are musts.

Kage- Which Deftones album should I get next? I like the cover of Around the Fur. :naughty:

[Dude3]

Now that I think of it, I think I did get MUCH closer to projecting about a year ago. I was listening to a lot of Tool, and getting into a whole lot of cool science stuff because of my teacher. I was also really reading up on Lucid dreams and OBE's.

Here's what happened:
I was going to bed(probably very late), and I started having a dream. I guess it was somewhat lucid though, because I knew that I was dreaming. In the dream, there were 3 people sitting in one of those "test" astronaut things(the machine that spins around extremely fast). It started running, and suddenly stopped. The guy in the middle of the 3 flew foward, and hit the front glass of the machine.

I then noticed that I had an extremely intense "tingling" sensation. I didn't really feel one with myself. I freaked out! I tried moving, but I couldn't. I think I was in sleep paralysis(which can follow an OBE). I couldn't even open my eyes. That's how lifeless my body was functioning.

I think I either did, or got really close to projecting that night.

[Darkness]

I use to be so into this stuff... I kinda have had a falling out the past couple of months. I think that thread is my inspiriation to get into it again. I'm definatly messing around tonight...

[Kage]

Nah, I doubt you would have gotten out while listening to music. When you're having an out of body exprience, you're more relaxed than you are when you're sleeping. This means no stimulant of any kind. :p Complete silence, no distractions are musts.

Kage- Which Deftones album should I get next? I like the cover of Around the Fur. :naughty:
I definately recommend Around the Fur. It's more raw and less experimental than White Pony,b ut songs like Be Quiet and Drive, Lotion, Dai The Flu, My Own Summer, and Mascara are absolutely amazing.

Sounds like I'll have to dedicate some real time to astral projection...I really wish I had gotten into this over the summer when I had nothing but time to waste. I think I'll wet my feet with lucid dreaming, though.

EDIT: On Deftones, Around the Fur is the next album you should get if you want the raw, heavy stuff with some good atmospheric and soft stuff thrown in. S/T next if you want a darker, more atmosphere-driven album.

well, i was off for 2days and so many pages written... i hope i didn't missed anything :thumb:

to the meditation stuff: about 3years ago i meditated a lot. the best thing to start with is when you take about 30mins time before you fall asleep and concentrate on your breath... clear your mind, try to be in harmony with your body and soul/mind and count your breathes 1...2....3...4... [...] ...10. when you reach 10 you start with 1 again.
It isn't that easy!! you always got redirect by another thoughts.... its really hard to concentrate only(!) on counting your breath.
After some weeks you will be good enough to concentrate only on your breath; Afterwards (once again some weeks later) you will be able to clear your mind, without the help of 'concentrating on your breaths' :thumb:

sometimes i have one of these kind of dreams or whatever you call it..i'm totally aware but i cant move, i dont even know if i'm breathing or not. i would be falling into darkness and i hear wierd tribal drum music in the background.. i actualy had this dreams a couple of times during a period of my life ( i cant remember anything special during that period ). the first time i had the dream, i was terrified and prayed to God constantly in my mind until i woke up..i tried to not to be afraid and continue falling the next time i had this kind of dreams because i was curious what would happen.i think i fell asleep in the end

I just finished watching Part I. I'm very impressed by it. I can't wait to check out Part II (hopefully someone uploads that one too). I love how much ambience they create with the music.

sorry bro, its just that the two posts were about two completely different topics. i will try n avoid it as much as i can though.

aparently its egyptology and more ironically mentioned in a book called "Ægypt". im guessing thats where maynard got the blue prints for Ænema.

anyways, back to merbaka. its a form of early egyption meditation which helps one align his Mind (Mer*), Body(Ba*) & Soul (Ka*).
