I don't know if this is anything big to ask for, but I'd like a backing track (for me on drums) for The Outsider. I don't know how much bass works into that song, but I guess just guitar would be nice. I hate playing over other drums, and that song gets lots of play time while I'm on my kit.

[QUOTE=In Chains 36]Exactly. The thing is, I have full confidence that Tool will make the best of those 18 minutes. Imagine an 18 minute long masterpiece? I can't; but I know that they can do it. They've already done an almost 14 minute one.

Edit: The thing I found funny was that Tool's joke was sticking it to the obnoxious people who play their stupid ringtones and think that we care. It sounds [I]nothing[/I] like the real song.[/QUOTE]
Tool's writing style is so mature and developed, I know it won't be just pointless wanking for 18 minutes. They can really weave in and out of different emotions, styles, moods, and atmospheres in the course of one song. Just imagine the overhaul of 18 minutes.

Yes, it is developed well... but I still don't know if they can beat Lateralus. :( I wish I had some assurence that this will be as good as we all hope it will be.

I don't have like, any idea why this thought crossed my mind, but I remember reading somewhere that Danny said people should do something along the lines of some occult research to understand there new songs. Anyone else hear of this, or am I nuts?

[QUOTE=In Chains 36]--Blair

Yeah, I have no idea why. But I just got extremely excited when I found out that they were coming out with an 18 minute song.[/QUOTE]
This album must now officially pre-kick ***. There is no way it can be bad(ok, it can. But an 18 minute Tool song? YESSSSS.)

I'm pretty sure Danny has always encouraged that kind of thing, but I have the feeling what you're saying does have some accuracy. But that's a pretty vague topic, is there anything more specific you remember?

I read somewhere that he "summons demons" in one of his songs with his drums. But they start rumors just to mess with Toolfans' heads, because of their sense of humor.

I have a feeling that that falls under the humor category with them.

Yeah, that whole rumor started with his drum-tech. He does however, have a demon catching artifact thing behind his kit.

If it turns out to be a Disgustipated.... chairs WILL be thrown.

:lol:

Altough that's still an awesome song.

I'd definetly make Disgustipated my ringtone if I could.

[QUOTE]This is necessary! Life feeds on life.[/QUOTE]

yeah kage, it was funny for like the first 3 times, but after 10 minutes, it was nothing more than nonsensical Goth Primus rantings.

...which i guess is still funny, but not for 15 minutes!

:lol: I enjoyed the weird percussion sounds and how it got more intense each time. It was so weird that it was one of the songs that got me interested to check Tool out further. Still, I can't say it's one of the highlights from Undertow or anything.

/listens to Disgustipated again

I'll still join you in throwing chairs if the new song is anything like that.

[QUOTE=Kage]I'll still join you in throwing chairs if the new song is anything like that.[/QUOTE]

I'll throw chairs to, but just because you don't have to have an excuse for throwing chairs, it's just [i]that[/i] fun.

Although I don't think I've ever actually thrown one.

[QUOTE]These are the cries of the carrots[/QUOTE]

I was so right when I called that song Goth Primus

Some of the stuff in that song is kinda cool, but god it is annoying.

He really says carrots? I didn't know that.


I've never thrown a chair, but that doesn't go to say there aren't any holes in my walls.

There's a hole in my door, which believe me is the lamest place to have a hole. The world thinks it's funny to yell through it and scare the crap out of me.

Plus, it kind of defeats the purpose of having a door.

:lol: There are several places on my wall where the poster is not just there by coincidence.

I threw a chair once... It was intense.

I was like 7 though. I was on Riddlin (sp?) and it made me REALLY pissed off all the time. So thats why I did it.

Heh, I've been trying to get a good recording of Intermission for mine :cool:

See, now THAT makes sense.... It's a simple organ or synth tune.

[QUOTE]It was daylight when you woke up in your ditch.
You looked up at your sky then.
That made blue be your color. You had your knife there with you too.
When you stood up there was goo all over your clothes.
Your hands were sticky.
You wiped them on your grass, so now your color was green.
Oh Lord, why did everything always have to keep changing like this.
You were already getting nervous again.
Your head hurt and it rang when you stood up.
Your head was almost empty.
It always hurt you when you woke up like this.
You crawled up out of your ditch onto your gravel road and began to walk,
waiting for the rest of your mind to come back to you.
You can see the car parked far down the road and you walked toward it.
"If God is our Father," you thought, "then Satan must be our cousin."
Why didn't anyone else understand these important things?
You got to your car and tried all the doors.
They were locked. It was a red car and it was new.
There was an expensive leather camera case laying on the seat.
Out across your field, you could see two tiny people walking by your woods.
You began to walk towards them.
Now red was your color and, of course,
those little people out there were yours too. [/QUOTE]

That part is so eerie... I love freaking out friends with it when they come over. Well, that, Faaip De Oiad and Mantra.

[QUOTE=Kage]:lol: There are several places on my wall where the poster is not just there by coincidence.[/QUOTE]

Holy crap, I can't believe I never thought of that. I need a poster!

[QUOTE=Sliptallica]Yeah, that whole rumor started with his drum-tech. He does however, have a demon catching artifact thing behind his kit.[/QUOTE]

That would be a gong LOL! Ahh I'm kidding, well... he does have a huge gong behind him when he plays live, but I've seen the "demon catcher" in picture somewhere before... Danny is an interesting guy, and from what I hear a nice one also :)
