I just listened to the song Lateralus, probably the only time I've ever listened to it while not listening to the whole album, except for the day I used the song for a school presentation.
And you know, it's absolutely orgasmic.

I wish I had an excuse to listen to it for a presentation... However, during a fall pep-rally, as a Captain of my cross-country team, I said "Maynard ran Cross-Country!" That was a funny moment.

It was pretty cool, an optional assignment for music history, to pick a song that means something to you and blabber about it. Suffice to say, I was the only guy with a nine minute-plus song...

Nice. I'd like to think my expertise for Tool is in Stinkfist. Although, I doubt the fascist pussies in my school would allow an explanation on a metaphor comparing our society to fisting.

Stinkfist would definitely be great, and was one of the songs I was considering. But songs with cursing or sexual metaphors or the like were ruled out.

I probably would have gone with Lateralus as well. Either that or Shine on You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd because it would eat up half the period. :lol:

Did anyone see The Mars Volta when they went on tour with A Perfect Circle? I bet that woulda been an awesome show, I can't belive I missed it.

SOYCD would be awesome! Haha. I'd love to sit around and listen to Pink Floyd for a period in school.

I saw TMV two or three years ago when they were on tour with RHCP and QOTSA and I have to say I wasnt impressed. I wasnt really into them. then but I would definitly go see them again with APC.

Any one hear anything on potential release dates for the new album? I saw aug 16th somewhere but I dont know where and what merit it held.

rumors have it the dvd will come out august 16. not the album.

TMV are supposed to be a hundred times better than they use to be.

I'm coming in a little late, but Jake I really liked what you wrote about the meaning of Lateralus. I agree with what you said.

[QUOTE=Rothmans]TMV are supposed to be a hundred times better than they use to be.[/QUOTE]

Exactly what I've heard... And they just cancelled the show I was gonna go see in a couple of days :upset:

They did the same to MA! I was going to see them and SOAD.

I wonder if it's Cedrics voice acting up or something of that sort

Their previous album is mcuh better than their latest effort IMO.

IMO they were a little TOO experimental with Frances the Mute. It was really just one big mess...although I'd probably LOVE it live.

I just can't get into TMV.

I dont like FTM aswell

I think, they sold out with the song the widow. How do you go from Inertiatic ESP to the widow? not good.

I laso think they experiment to much but w/e at least they try.

can someone send jakes guitar track to me using YSI .....my browser sucks whenever i click save as MP3 it opens up qucktime.


:EDIT: [SIZE=4]HELLO!!!!!!!! NOBODY IS HELPING ME I HAVE 30 MINUETS FROM THIS EDIT TO RECORD TO DAY[/SIZE] :angry:

I'm a huge TMV fan, and Frances is one of my favorite albums ever.
They did cancel some shows because Omar Rodriguez-Lopez got really sick, or somethng.

What the fuc[i][b][/i][/b]k? How could you possible sell out, yet experiment too much?

[QUOTE=Knifeboy]What the fuc[i][b][/i][/b]k? How could you possible sell out, yet experiment too much?[/QUOTE]
well they sold out with the widon IMO, that song has been played to death on radio stations here and at the same time they experimented to much. Sounds crazy but hey they pulled it off!\


The widow is as cheesy as hell.

I really don't think there's too much difference between the Widow and Televators (the single for the first album)

Televators is 6 minutes and 20 seconds long, yet the widow clocks in at just below 3 and a half minutes, thats just an average pop song with a fairly catchy chorus or w/e.

What version of the widow are you talking about? the radio version of televators wasn't longer than 4 minutes

i have no idea on how to work audacity

dunno, they one I downloaded. . .
