Just got back from football, we started at 8:30 this morning (EST).

Anything about the release date?

What's happened with the thread.

Not really. Expect the August newsletter soon though. Can't wait to see if there's any type of information Blair can reveal to us. It's funny that no one ever knows what he's talking about and he says that he occasionally drops hints because whenever the album actually does come out, we can probably look back on his postings and see he was hinting at something...or maybe it would still appear too "out there."

I know about the newsletter.

His hints will make a buttload more sense after the album comes out.

[B]NEW DISCUSSION TOPIC:[/B]

This has probably been discussed a billion times, but, what's your favorite song from each album?

Mine:

Opiate: Jerk-Off (Live)
Undertow: Prison Sex
Ænima: Third Eye
Salival: No Quarter
Lateralus: Reflection

[QUOTE=faith+1]i have had this view from the beggining. i remember waiting for lateralus to come out all excited, and the newer tool fans at the time were making some stupid predictions, much like ones i have seen on this board for there next release, they do stuff in secrecy not stupidity, all these views you guys are throwing out, are false, they are thrown out every time they release something

just think back to 2000 when they released info of the next tool album, it was ALL over the internet on tv Etc. and it WAS as well gaurded as this one, the fact of the matter is they are still under contract, they must abide, if anyone has the guitar legends from 2001 with them in it, you will know about there entire legal issues. YES they have full control, but there is more to it than that. i suggest anyone who wasnt a tool fan until after lateralus to read all the magazines you can about tool prior to that release, you will see that all these crazy "secrecy" predictions have been made before and will keep being made every time tool releases new material.

/[B]a[/B]ss hole off

[QUOTE=Kage]Hmmm...some odd choices there :amaze:[/QUOTE]

Another reaction pusher.

Couldnt think of a filer/weak track for Opiate

The Gapping Lotus?

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]The Gapping Lotus?[/QUOTE]

YOU KIDDING? Tools best lyrics :cool:

Well yeah, but it is filler just as much as disgustipated.

I would say its more of a hidden track than filler

Gaping Lotus > All.

Except the lyric in my usertitle. It was written by an MXer who posts here infrequently.

[QUOTE=Animas Animosity]a true tool fan would spell the word true instead of tr00, thus not making you a true tool fan[/QUOTE]

A true Tool fan wouldn't care what some pseudo-intellectual told him. OOOOOOOO! Burned!

I hate Tool fans.

More like both.

Something fishy about you today...

[QUOTE=Kage]Something fishy about you today...[/QUOTE]

I am sleep deprived due to FF11 exposure.

Fix'd.

/googles FF11

Oh. Never was a Final Fantasy fan, although CS can cause some sleep deprivation for me.

[QUOTE=BlindWriting][B]Fix'd[/B][/QUOTE]

tr00, tr00.

[QUOTE=BlindWriting]Fix'd.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, my mistake. Point is, they give us a bad name!

[QUOTE]Death to Tool fans![/QUOTE]

/Raises Pitchfork

you say something? :)

[QUOTE=faith+1]/Raises Pitchfork

Always ready, arent we?

I might give the mailing list a kick up the arse soon

AJIG, you ever been in the Tool Chat rooms on Toolband?

That's a whole other level of desperate.

Nope I havent, for your stated reason.

Its a slow night now, and I cant find my way to bed yet

Yup...sure is....

[B]NEWER DISCUSSION TOPIC:[/B]

What information (if any) will Blair divulge in the August Newsletter?

2 pictures of Adam and Danny eating, a random amp shot, and some info on how he talked to them about some non tool topic

[QUOTE=Adam Jones is GOD]2 pictures of Adam and Danny eating, a random amp shot, and some info on how he talked to them about some non tool topic[/QUOTE]
:lol: Second'd.

Adam Jones has some recording photos on his MySpace blog.

There's one of Maynard cooking peppers on a grill outside. It's funny, all the pics have the Tool Army logo, have the band members' eyes blacked out, there's no pics of Justin, and Aaron from Isis visted them....possibly hinting on a tour?
