I hate that bio. I've read it. It's that bio claiming his drums are set up like some star of Jeruselum or something like that. It's completely bogus, Danny's Kit is set up normal. He just tries to have them at the perfect spots, and uses weird gemotry to do it.

True. A couple of my friends read that bio and now they say tool is stanic and the say Danny sucks just because of what that bio says. But it dsnt matter, they onviously know **** about what they say

[QUOTE=Sliptallica]He does draw symbols on his pads, but I want to know what that symbol means. They always have one on stage, and I see it often in other Tool related stuff.[/QUOTE]

i thought he meant those drum pad things by his drums that are on that interactive drum set thing on his site.

Here's [i]The Lateralus Code[/i] for you all. I think a couple of people wanted it. I left some stuff showing my working in the folder, just so you can compare how mine looks with that Aiden guys version of it.

Did anyone here give Cog a listen?

[QUOTE=herbtones]I have no idea wat yer talking about

ups post count*[/QUOTE]

Don't post then.

I've seen Cog 3 or 4 times live. They're a bit of fun, play quite decently, but are boring on the albums.

I love you.

This Lateralus code crap seems bogus.

Largely because it is. It just fun to look at the album in a different light though.

Ive got the Lateralus album, has to great songs on it, most notably 'Lateralis' which is simple but i love thrashing ma guitar when i play it :thumb: any other songs like lateralis, but arent on the lateralus album? thanks

Hmm i advise you to pick up the aenima album, there are some great riffs on that album, stinkfist, H, Forty six+2 and aenima...

Lateralus is a different style to their other stuff, aenima (album) comes closest. Before aenima tool played alot of hard rock.

So yeah I advise you to check out Aenima...:)

On another note i have adventured into the realms of the smashing pumpkins, I downloaded mellon collie and the infinite sadness...we shall see how this goes...

[QUOTE] SESSIONS, CREDITS
& LUNCH BREAKS FROM • • • – • • – – • – –

Although it might not get mentioned on the next CD, for the past couple of weeks, a multi-tasking chef Maynard has been providing the barbecue for his fellow band mates to consume at lunch breaks during the recording process. However, last Thursday (or maybe it was Friday), a guy named Joe (not Ron!) something or other who is working with the band grilled up some kind of sausages that were described as “excellent.” Knowing this is a bit vague for many Tool enthusiasts who want specifics about the recording process, tomorrow I will attempt to find out some more details about these sausages of Joe’s. [/QUOTE]

Hmmm...

I thought it had already been posted, Blair is a faggot.

never heard them before but I heard they have some kick *** drums, is this true?

Tool? Yeah their drums are pretty special...

Try the drums on this song..

/awaits with optimisim.

I have Rotten Apples and that's awesome as it is. I bought it the same time I got all my other great greatest hits albums. (REMs and Soundgardens)

Yeah first side of mellon collie was good.

[QUOTE=Sliptallica]What is that symbol on DC's shirts and that Tool always has on stage? That purple/yellow/green thing?

Sorry if that's a stupid question but it's driving me nuts.[/QUOTE]

The symbol in the middle is the geometric form of Merkaba.

As far as the symbols surrounding (e.i. the pentigon facing up and down) could symbolize the penticle meaning balance of life. Facing up the male version, and facing down the female version.

As far as the surrounding geometric shapes of that, I have no idea. But then with TOOL it could mean something to them, in turn makes more sense than the later lol

Hey DJ,
Dude, I don't mean to sh*t on your parade or anything, (and I know I'm still a noob) but everything I have seen you post on this thread thus far is of nothing productive.

If you're not insulting something or saying that something is "gay", you really have nothing to say. I just think that the TOOL thread is something completely opposite of that. I'm not here to flame on you or anything, but come on. It just kills the feeling of the thread, I think.

Opinions are cool. It's what makes us [I]us[/I]. But if an opinion isn't productive, then it becomes a rant. And no one likes crying.

Just a thought.

smashing pumpkins are definitely awesome.

anybody got any ideas about what blairs talking about? maybe its a secret message...??

[QUOTE=ThirteenthStep]smashing pumpkins are definitely awesome.

He's probably saying that they found a cool idea for the album. Sausages was probably just a metaphor.

Maybe its as simple as: everyone wants to know some stuff about the recording process, so he did tell us some things about it. what they eat for lunch.

Who else in here thinks that "The Grudge" is a great song? After listening to it today I finally realized how great it is.

yes it is a great song. Parabol/a are my favorites on Lateralus.

Of course, but I have a live video which is even better.

One of their best, IMO.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.

You are the smartest n00b I've ever seen.

Anyway, does anybody know what Blair could be telling us, aside from what the band enjoy to eat?

Here's one far out idea.

Sausages = songs.

Joe = some guy who'll guest appear on one track. Either with vocals or guitar.

Re-read it thinking like that.

The sausages could easily be tracks that have been mixed and stuff and are ready to be put on cd, or any other wild variety of things.
