NP - Ghost Reveries.

The whole album rocks. Amazing. If you haven't gotten it yet, or if you have any doubts about the band whatsoever, pick this one up.

[Otherside]

It's good, but I still like Morningrise and BWP and Still Life better :\

[Darkness]

I'd recommend any other Opeth album over that one, personally.

I think Damnation is my least favorite... I just don't feel that album I guess.

"Because of the way we breathe we see things in terms of good and evil, but in fact there is no such thing as polarity. Everything actually has three compnents -the holy trinity- and no matter what polarity you think of there will always be a third element to it; for example, with hot and cold, there is warm, up and down gives you middle, etc. From higher dimensional levels of existence polarity is just an illusion. Unity is all there is; there is just one God and one spirit that moves through everything. All that ever occurs is occurring because of the one God.

On our level of existence we interpret things differently. We think we see good and evil. What is really going on however, is timing. The forces of polarity are necessary for the proper functioning of the universe. Remember, the dark forces do everything they can to hinder a particular area of conciousness, be it on a planetary or individual scale. The light forces do everything they can to encourage consciousness expansion and awareness. This opposition consciousness to move upward at exactly the right pace. In the birth of a child, for example, nine months is the proper time, not three months or fifteen months. the forces of Polarity cause the child to be born at exactly the right time.

So given where we are, we need to see good and evil and be aware of them, but we also need to recognize that the presence of God is in every situation and that there is a reason for everything that happens. We need to see that everything is whole and complete and perfect and that there is nothing wrong no matter how bad or good it may seem. We need to see that life engenders a deep conscious aspect that is everywhere.

In our state we tend to think that we live inside this body, that everything "out there" is seperate from us, and that our feelings and thoughts don't manifest beyond ourselves. We think we can hide our thoughts and feelings and they have no impact "out there." This is simply not true. Everything that we think, feel, and do is creating our whole world all the way out to the most distant stars. We are creating everything in every moment, more so than we could ever imagine."

-"Nothing In This Book Is True, But It's Exactly The Way Things Are by Bob Frissell


I thought that was pretty deep stuff there. So I thought I would share. And the book is really great.

[BlindWriting]

I looked through that book at a Barnes and Noble one time. Some of it was rather interesting, but a good deal of it was a complete waste of time.

But if you get past a lot of the bogus crap in it, you'll find some quotes like the one MagicTroll posted. By the way, do you own the book?

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Ghost Reveries is very eclectic, but the heavier songs aren't as good as the ones from BWP/Still Life. I'd say that, overall, it's a better album than Deliverance, though.

[Magicaltroll]

But if you get past a lot of the bogus crap in it, you'll find some quotes like the one MagicTroll posted. By the way, do you own the book?
Yup, I got it a while ago, and thought most of it was crap, but then a few days ago I wanted to find some stuff on Phi, so I looked through it, and found it, then found some great stuff.

There's some serious bull in there, but then there is alot of great stuff.

Actually, could you do me a quick favor?

For my anthropology class, I'm writing a term paper on the paradoxical aspects of French structuralism and dualities, and that particular passages would be an excellent example of a counter-claim. If you could tell me the page(s) that the quote you typed up appears on, as well as the bibliographical information, (publisher, location, date of publication,) I would be incredibly appreciative.

You know, I enjoy creating theories, so here is my easy-to-spot tour theory.

Tool
Isis
Melvins/Fantomas
Queens of the Stone Age

Members of all bands have appeared in pics, are they telling us something other than band friendship?

[Artemician]

Tool+Isis+Fantomas=Awesome.

[Sleeper]

Maybe that they are gonna have some of those bands in some of there songs, or are helping out in the recording process.

[something erotic]

I highly doubt I am right, I just like fooling around with Adam's pictures. You're probably right, though.

[Sleeper]

Does anyone else visit Adams myspace frequently? I love his myspace, he displays alot of his work he will be putting on his new website adamjones.tv.

i look at it once in a while. he has some photos of the recording process and just some interesting stuff.

[Sleeper]

He's a very talented photographer, i really can't wait for his site to launch.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Yes, there's just a chance that they're lyrics. Someone mentioned that the pictures are for the new "video" which would mean that this "Frozenlife" song(the name of the blog was Frozenlife) would be the new single, which would mean that the song may be on it's way to radio stations.

Speculation++

That's an interesting thought.

I just got back from a local show. It was pretty cool. This band (Running From Famous Bloodlines) are a Florida local here, and they are seriously great. The bands there were basically Indie/Emo/etc.., but these guys had a great mix of Hardcore, Metal, and even some other crap. They have 2 singers(Like 3 Inches of Blood). One clean, one scream. Here's their songless Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/runningfromfamousbloodlines

Some indie band Look Mexico was also there, and they were suprisingly good.

[Darkness]

The album will be out January 3rd. Proof? Maynard left us a little hint, http://toolnavy.com/member.php?u=2 (see his location..) Also, didn't Danny say it was going to be out in January?

Ok ok, so this is pretty much just another guess, from some hardcore Tool fan I met on SoulSeek. Its nice to believe this, though. :)

Okay, now that's pretty intriguing. Is that really Maynard, or just someone who uses the name Maynard? If it's really him, what's the deal with the location saying: "01.03.06"? This is getting interesting now. By the way, I checked, Janurary 3rd 2006 is a tuesday, which is the days that 99% of all cds come out in stores. I'm getting real excited now.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I recall there being a supposed gimmick account on tdn a while back, with the user name of 2006 that posted a bunch of seemingless miniscule and worthless connections with "2006."

That would make a helluva lot of sense if this guy was for real.

Well, people aren't aloud to put TOOL Member as there title on that site.

Jake, did you ever give my song a spin?

[Dude3]

So, this is more likely then ever to be the release date?

[Darkness]

Well, it seems a little more believable then "Teleincision" or that whole dot star thing, since we have a little more proof and all.

You know what? I AM going to get my hopes up, and think of this as the new release date. Why not?

Holy crap! The weather was just completely AMAZING today. Just enough wind. Perfect temperature(although it did get kinda cold towards 8:00pm).

I actually went swimming in the coldest water I've been in my life. That pool is always freezing in the first place, but....woah! I think my whole circulatory system froze for a few seconds. I will admit, that it was really refreshing, and could probably add a few years onto your life if applied correctly.

Today(and last night) have been the most fun I've had in a while.

The thing with the symbols and the spaces isn't a joke. The part about the moon and the sun and the september release date was the joke done by deadohiosky.

cause it would have to be a tuesday

[YDload]

It's probably just the date of a new site design which complements the new album. I don't think an album on a major label would be coming up in less than three months without any previews or information at all.

I think it refers to an album title myself. The way he used it in a sentance made it seem like a name for the album and not a date.

Fans of any band tend to suck. Super underground artists have fans that are generally elitests, and bigger bands have the whole fanboy/groupy thing going on. I've never met a real life Tool fan that I could actually talk to about anything, and generally they're annoying.

And I personally just don't like Slipknot, if only because of their lyrics, which arn't really that big of a deal normally, but I just can't stand theirs.

Marshall- Your user CP awaits you. :lol: That comment in my cp made me crack up man :lol:

I cant get into radiohead. I have listened to OK computer, but something was't clicking for me.
<SHRUG>

[Otherside]

Yeah, Kage made me give OK Computer another listen, and suddenly, it clicked with me. :p


Ah, good for him and for you. I have all their albums except Pablo Honey, which I don't really ever intend to buy. Hail to the Thief was a pleasent surprise though, I got home from the record store not expecting much, but it turned out to be a great album.

I think it was Kage who said that album was the equal of OK Computer. Seeing as I'm starting to like that album a lot. is it similar, or just really good in another way?

Hail to the Thief? Hm... I don't think it would be at the level of OKC, or atleast not for me. It's probably tied for second with Kid A though, closely followed by The Bends. OKC is definitley my favorite.

I guess we should ignore this guy too, since he's probably the same person.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

So, I'm reading the special Haloween Newsletter, and you know there's a couple of interesting things and the rest is just useless to me, but one thing caught my eye. The last sentence: "Halloween Barbie™ says hopefully there will be something in the pumpkin patch soon." What does that even mean?

[Darkness]

OOOMG how do u no it was meee
Hm.. the poor interent slang and typing maybe...

[Futuro]

OOOMG how do u no it was meee Cause you are the only person I know, who sucks at the internet. That's pretty much failing at failing.

Or maybe the fact that he used his usertitle as his new username?

I'd love to hear a new Tool song by next Monday. A Halloween single release would be pretty cool, I'd think.

Neat. I read it, and I can't help but wonder how many misdirected rumors will result from it. Lots of tongue-in-cheek responses and misunderstandings in what was probably a pretty hectic chat, so take your time readin' it!

[misunderstood]

Yeah, some of those questions and comments were so damn stupid and useless, really. It seems like it was some sort of disaster chat. I liked the 'chat' they did a couple years ago alot better. It wasn't actual interaction with the fans but they did submit questions and the band was videotaped while answering them.

Yeah, it went like this. Maynard says the album is coming out early next year. Adam says he didn't know the release date. Artwork is in preproduction. A new video is in preproduction. A lot of dumb questions were asked. We found out that Maynard flushes twice after he takes a dump. Someone asked a question about someone's favorite hot pocket flavor and Adam replied with "pus sy flavored". Probably some important stuff and some irrelevant stuff im forgetting.

[Killtacular]

Hahahaha.

Classic.

[BlindWriting]

Robert Fripp is Adam's hero. And Danny said he was good friends with Gavin Harrison and likes Porcupine Tree.

Oh and Danny also said that the longest song on the new album (probably L.K.) is indeed 17 minutes long.

We also found out that Danny's favorite Pink Floyd album is Animals.


I found the chat humorous, but I'm so dissapointed because people had the chance to really ask some good questions, and a lot of them didn't.

[something erotic]

I know really. If I were there, I would've abused my power and think out my question perfectly. Not like "What' your favorite Hot Pocket flavor Adam? Oh and yeah album soon and stuff. So how 'bout those Hot Pockets? Tasty, eh?"

Dumbasses.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Exactly. I would've asked something concerning a release date of the single or the album, or possibly for them to give us an idea of what the new album will sound like, etc.

[Futuro]

I liked the questions they asked :upset:

It is a sign! Im one of the dumb bread tool fans!

Well, no, we don't. We know from interviews that are from 6months+ ago that it's heavy, meshuggah and fantomas influenced, and that it is heavier than Lateralus. I think a bit more of detail would have been very nice.

[One Groovin Clown]

i have just gotten a huge surprise. It was just recently my birthday, so 4 of my firends chip money in to get Me the salival dvd/Cd set. When they gave it to me i was so freaking excited, oh man. I've been looking for it for a while, and then they just surprise me like that. Man they kick ***.

Depression

It's a proven fact that depression is the leading cause of wearing ironic and trendy t-shirts. Everybody is forced to deal with this crippling condition, whether they suffer from it personally or it affects a loved one. It can damage personal relationships, and cause major stress on one's body due to the psychosomatic symptoms associated with writing poetry and listening to Tool or Radiohead. It can also lead to the creation of horrible artwork. In fact, all forms of bad art are derived from individuals who are suffering from depression and spread their pain to others. In the medical community, we call this "The Van Gogh Shift".

I'm sure he will not deviate from that prediction because it's pretty clear that he's made up his mind beforehand. It's a little thing called "prejudice," or literally pre-judging something or someone.

I wouldn't judge the album based on the first single, either. Although I would like to hear it as much as anyone, I don't think it will be a concrete indication of the album as a whole, regardless of how good it is.

Maybe it will come out November 14th, my birthday.

Just lately though, because I have been a bit depressed for no reason. But I don't look like it really. At all.

And I definitely don't listen to "emo bands" :p

I'm not saying it won't be better, (it might not be, after all..) but WAY better, well I donno.. Lateralus was a masterpeice, IMO.

How long did they spend making Lateralus? Anyone know?

Yeah, I was just saying how atleast the first single can give us some sort of idea of what the album is like. Ya know? I hate when people pre-judge an album. You know, the classic "it's not as good as their first album" or something to that extent. Most people who say that just want it to be that way before hand. You know what I mean? I'm sure he didn't really mean it that way, but that is what it came off as.

[paganman7]

How long did they spend making Lateralus? Anyone know?


I'm not exactly sure, but I do know that they finished recording in late January, and released Lateralus in May. I really hope that it doesn't take five months beyond recording to release this album. Especially considering that they aren't even finished recording yet (per Adam's posts during the chat).

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

They spent about a year writing the album. I don't know how long it took them to record it. Or maybe it took a year to write and record, but I seriously doubt that.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Or perhaps mine, December 25th.
