Me wants jimmy and the patient. If i have to learn to play bass.....ima be pissed

[QUOTE=XyleM]So far I think this album is awesome man, its exactly the sorta stuff I've been looking for :thumb:

And on a side note how the f[b][i][/b][/i]uck do you guys play Tool stuff!! I just can't get the rhythm's right, especially in the verses when the guitar isn't as clear, I play what I would play, then stop and listen and realise Adam is playing some weird a[b][i][/b][/i]ss sh[b][i][/b][/i]it!

Do you guys read off tabs? Or do you use Powertabs and get the rhythm from there?[/QUOTE]

i havent found a TOoL song i couldnt play, whats the problem, what track?

[QUOTE=G_Mac07][url]http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=8088594&postcount=2559[/url]

I uploaded 2 for you in the YSI thread. One from The Red Sea, and one from Panopticon. Let me know if you want more from either of those CD's.[/QUOTE]


Awesome, downloading now, thanks alot :D

[QUOTE=Otherside]-sigh- Another unsucessful upload attempt AJG :(

I swear to you, I will have this done! :mad:[/QUOTE]

Cheers for trying again, I dont dare touch bittorent stuffs myself.

Ill get the various requests sorted once I re-read through the thread.

EDIT: Right, two uploads asked for. here they come

[URL=http://s11.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=28J0GPA69KD8V1N43Z90XEF02L]JoZ's bass for Stinkfist[/URL]

[URL=http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3C9F95CWQFGCO3QKL4AKOR0SNZ]....and the bass for sober[/URL]

As for how he recorded them, he played along with the album track, you can tell with some as you can faintly hear the track playing in the background.

Hey guys...I havent followed this thread at all before so forgive me if I'm bringing up an old topic here but I heard rumors of a new Tool album maybe even this year. I know thats probably very unlikely with Tool but still....is there any truth to any of this?

We're still armed with only rumours im afraid. All we know is they are working on an album, they have quite a bit of material coming together, but no idea of release date.

Im starting to think that people should start making predictions on what date the album will be released on. Then a prize for the closest

My estimations: September.

If you pinpoint to an exact date, even better.

Reminder that most UK new releases happen on a Monday, so that'll narrow down date selections. Not sur eif its the same in the states.

AND IF THE US/UK RELEASE DATES DO NOT COINCIDE, I WILL BE ONE MAD BRIT :angry:

Oh, and my prediction: October 24th. But thats a hopeful one, as that would mean its out for my birthday

It's hard to say without knowing how much they actually have done...but ill say december just because I know we'll end up waiting till close to next year

September 21st then... I'm not sure, but I think NA cd's come out on Wednsdays?

thanks for the bass track ben

I'm guessing around late August.. say the.. 25th

[QUOTE=Ashermerkabah]Who here knows what Aenima is a tribute to? Bill Hicks! Ding! tell him what he's won Johnny!

Yep, that about covers it. Anyone heard of Bill Hicks? You guys should really check him out, he's the best comedian I've ever heard. Hits on a lot of really great points. Check out his relentless cd or rant in E minor and then re-listen to Eulogy, it makes a lot more sense, and you surely don't have to stretch as far. Just trying to shed some light. Take Care![/QUOTE]

Eulogy (to the best of my knowledge) is about L. Ron Hubbard. But yeah I guess Bill Hicks was a big inspiration on the album. Though I don't think it was a tribute to him.

joZ recorded playing along with a midi file, he was playing from sight on his comp...

[QUOTE=Idiot Martyr]Eulogy (to the best of my knowledge) is about L. Ron Hubbard. But yeah I guess Bill Hicks was a big inspiration on the album. Though I don't think it was a tribute to him.[/QUOTE]

I think Eulogy could be applied to Bill Hicks, Ron L. Hubbard, and somehow (and some people believe this) it could be about Maynard himself... speaking in third person.. Though I think Ron L. Hubbard would be a prime choice because Aenima was the album that Maynard vented his anger about Hubbard... Like so on the title track "**** Ron L. Hubbard and **** all his clones.."

Remember that Tool always stresses for the fans to form their own interpretations :thumb:

I think it's a big ole generalisation for many people who aspire to be martyrs, it explains that people who actually want to become martyrs, don't become martyrs. Same kind of thing as 'A person that wants to be a politician should never be given the chance'...Maynard basically says it's not all fun and games so come down get off your cross and stop bothering people. He may have had someone in mind when he wrote it, he may have not...I'll guess we'll never know...

I'm actually liking amotion atm, thanks kurrpt :)

Hoorah! Rock/Metal is open again!

Im gonna have to drop out of the covers for drums, Theres no way will be able to record my parts. Really sorry :(

[QUOTE=travis-rocks]hey guys im a drummer and i want to do the track for the competition. i can play all of travisis licks but i havent heard any tool, but the drummer cannot be as good as travis barker.[/QUOTE]
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Try Ticks and Leeches real quick, just give it a shot.

Can't believe this went unflamed.........

I was going to... but I saw no point. Travis Barker... gimmi a break.

[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo][url=http://www.fileplanet.com/132226/130000/fileinfo/Tool-Band-Theme]I thought this may be of interest to some of you guys. It's a Tool theme for your compy. I haven't DLed it for my self, but I figured some of you may be interested.[/url]

LMPH-Still looking for your real name so I don't have to acronymate your s/n. As for your question, not much has happened. Rob uploaded the guitar to Ænema and Ben mix'd it. Ben also uploaded all of The JoZ's bass tracks into a ZIP file on page 342, in case you were interested in that. There was also lots of APC talk. Kurrpt uploaded all of amotion, I beleive. (Not sure why it took him 10 posts to do so, but hey, whatever.)[/QUOTE]
Well, my real name is Nojus, but Dancin' Man calls me Moses because of my sn so call me what you want. Ok, well I found a track for Part of Me with all the parts on it, so you may get some vocals for that soon enough. That is, if everyone gets out of the house.

Blah. They're completely different drummers. Danny Carey's music is 340979833985987x more complicated but Travis can beat the $hit out of a snare and has impressive solos. If only the guy would write some good music so he could show off his chops more.

All he can do is hit the snare really fast, nothing else.

I saw a good solo by him. But he can't write good music, and that's a HUGE negative.

:eek:
I used to think he was godly too, don't worry.

I hope this is a gimmick...

Well here's a preview of my vocals. I couldn't do the whole song cuz my family got home :upset: .

...Where is it...

Try up-loading the song :thumb:

[QUOTE=In Chains 36]I saw a good solo by him. But he can't write good music, and that's a HUGE negative.[/QUOTE]

Travis may play well with a snare drum, but Danny... oooooooooooooooohhh boy.. Danny tears it up on ALL of his drums... even his electric pads (Triad)
and a major plus is Danny can completely blow a simple 4/4 beat out of the water by writing around it with some wild time signatures and rhythms... the man is a genius.. best influence for drumming that I've ever had :)

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]...Where is it...[/QUOTE]
Sorry my computer got gay right when I was about to post it, and it somehow put my post up. Any way here it is......

I only sing like two lines.

Part of Me.

I used too much reverb.

I got a real copy of Undertow today. Woohoo!

Edit:

To the Travis Barker guy, Travis is a pretty good drummer, but don't be so ignorant and say he's better than someone you've never heard of. I think Danny Carey is better than Travis. Travis has done some great drumming with the Aquabats though, however it still doesn't touch anything Danny Carey has done IMO.

Why does this thread die almost right when I post?

Also, yeah Travis Barker is good and I've seen his solo's but Danny is a more accomplished drummer, and he's just a better drummer overall.

speed drumming isnt as good as drumming in insane patterns like the fibonnaci sequence and putting crazy time signatures over things

[B]I used too much reverb[/B].[/QUOTE]

Bolded for truth :p

Guitar tone is awesome though. The 'solo' has a different feel too.

Apart from sounding like you sang them from a well, your vox shows promise, it has the right feel for the song.

What equipment did you use to get that tone btw?


And Med: no news on the album, but the rumour of an August 17th release of a DVD too another boost with the rumoured album name becoming the rumoured DVD name

[QUOTE=kurrptsenate]i havent found a TOoL song i couldnt play, whats the problem, what track?[/QUOTE]

The Grudge (that riff you were having trouble with replicating) , The Patient (although this is easier) it starts at [4:50] When I read the tab and then play it sounds completely f[i][b][/i][/b]ucked.

Although i have never really sat down to learn them, I spend like 20 mins on one song and when I don't get the rhythm right after a couple of shots, I just crack the s[i][b][/i][/b]hits and play other stuff...

August 16th :p

Feels good to be back...

Vox were ok, need to be real agressive with that song though...I'll record aenima properly if i get a chance...

Who recorded the guitar for that part of me?

Woo snype!!!

/still in yesterdays mood :(

I think i need to sort out a rehab thread. It seems to be happening to many of us.

And I couldnt remember the exact date. The next few months are a big cluster of dates and numbers that are important

(8th Septmember being the best so far, OPETH!)

i did. I was thinking about redoing it soon. Especially when i get my Mark IV
