Ohhhh yes.

Otherside 11-03-2004 08:47 PM

Nice.

Dancin' Man 11-03-2004 08:50 PM

I love Tool's version of Demon Cleaner (Kyuss)

It's so Tooley until that guitar part comes in. Josh Homme is the man.

[QUOTE=Otherside]But, to give a meaning to this post, have you ever been listening to Tool, or any other band for that matter, and just startedly freaking out/seeing things for no reason?[/QUOTE]

This has happened to me a couple times:
I'll be listening to Tool and drifting off to sleep, and I can still hear the song playing, but weird things are happening and I can see things like a dream, only I'm not fully asleep and I have a feeling the things I'm seeing have something to do with the song playing. I couldn't for my life tell you what I see, but at the time it's very clear, and scary. :amaze:

I always fall asleep listening to Tool. I've had a similar to urs. Maybe less scary though. I actually thought it was kinda cool.

Its different from the one i sent out

And first prize to whoever can guess what song its a part of

Vampyre de Mort 11-04-2004 08:43 AM

Its Adam's ability with effects and tone that makes him that much better, hearing other band's versions of Schism, you really start to appreciate Adam's genious. And Maynard is one of the greatest individuals i've heard in a while- both vocals and lyrics, but I like APC like a million times better.

Magicaltroll 11-04-2004 07:49 PM

ok not sure if anyones asked this but how the hell does adam make all those sounds like in the solos he does i think thats so cool can anyone explain how he does it if its like a technique or something. it kind of sounds like a whole lotta feedback to me but theres gotta be something more to it because it seems impossible to like "control" feedback or whatever, anyways id appreciate if someone could help me understand

ænima 11-04-2004 11:06 PM

thats the mean druming is that a song theyve done, or is it going to be a song?

Merkaba 11-05-2004 01:00 AM

[QUOTE=Adam Jones is GOD]While you in a cool man thread jonny, still want eMOTIVE tracks sent to you? ill upload them if you do.

And im still looking forward to the DVD purely for the good live interpretation of the Noose, since when I saw them do it, the sound was bad[/QUOTE]

Sux....Every tool or apc show i've been to were all flawless. :cool:

Reactor158 11-05-2004 11:01 AM

Nothing weird ever happens to me while listening to Tool... but, I never listen to it right before falling asleep, either. Those are some pretty interesting experiences, though. Creepy, too!

Edited because the poster is too stupid to breathe........

i Fling Pooh 11-05-2004 02:47 PM

i do like radiohead. Radiohead is a vry well put together band and the music is very trippy. The best radiohead song ever is Fitter and Happier (i think its called). But Tool is a much betetr band. Tool has everything radiohead has but like a hundred times better. Better vocals, better guitar, better songs, way better lyrics. Radiohead is just slower.

an_underused_memory 11-05-2004 04:42 PM

i think radionhead and tool are similar but, really, saying that tool iis a much better band, or that tool is radiohead "a hundred times better," is like saying that strawberry milk is better than brie cheese.
They're both luxurious, but not the same, so opinion is just that.

AIM causes my cpu problems, so until I can find out what, ill have to put that on hold

Adam Jones is GOD 11-05-2004 05:16 PM

As an album, it does suck. As individual tracks that stand out, there are some great ones.

Passive and Whats going on stand out for me (love the whole reverbed tremelo effect)







SHOCK! :eek: YOU CHANGED YOUR AVATAR!

Adam Jones is GOD 11-05-2004 05:27 PM

I think a few of these tracks had been lying around for a while, and that they were mostly ready to be released for November 2nd (even though its intended effect seems to have failed). I could be wrong though.

Although another interesting comparison was given to me this week, looking at SOAD with their 2 'good' albums (i know most wont like them) followed by a mish mash album of tracks that were recorded at various times. They claimed it to be their new album even though others saw it as a b-side project.

Just interesting to compare the two situations

Adam Jones is GOD 11-05-2004 05:44 PM

And after checking tool's website, I must say, justin continues to be amazing as he isa promoting Yourcodenameis:Milo, a very interesting British band coming through slowly. Good to see that members of tool are still supporting other bands even when off tour

Street Spirit (Fade Out) 11-05-2004 07:03 PM

See SN

Refering to Radiohead post.

In case you still care, he uses lots of pinch harmonics and artificial harmonics I do believe. When they're combined with the right distortion, they can give some seriously weird feedback.

he uses a discontinued model of the les paul, really low amount made, it responds strangely to distortion and feedback and has a strange tonality, although its not a bad thing, gibson discontinued it because it didnt have that "Paul" tone.

im 96% sure of this

Dancin' Man 11-05-2004 08:13 PM

That's interesting. As far as I knew it was just a Silverburst studio LP or something.

Kage 11-05-2004 08:13 PM

Jones definately gets some bizarre tones in his playing...he's basically my guitar idol.

Dancin' Man 11-05-2004 08:18 PM

Nah, not guitar idol. Just does some cool stuff. For guitar idol I'd have to say Alexi Laiho. AJ is in contention for songwriting idol though. Right alongside Mikael Akerfeldt and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez.
