Sweet, I always wondered if you could leech off of Best Buy's Clearwire server. :p

It's really too bad they're only releasing Refractionoid as a limited edition though...I don't want to pay 30 bucks for an album, but eh, it's Tool. I'd pay anything for Tool.

Is it really next week? Jeez, I'm behind. Anyone know the title?

Refractionoid. It's in my post up there. ^

Hey, man, I'm gonna buy five and sell the extra four for ninety bucks apiece on Ebay as imports. Pretty good profit margin, I'd say. That is, if I can get my hands on five during the stampede.

That's a good idea. I think I'm gonna bring my pellet gun, just in case Best Buy sells out. I'll pull my gun out on someone who's on their way out with the album.

You bastards better watch out! :evil:

I'm packin' heat. My tent is filled with piles of rocks, so I've got ammo to spare.

Yeah, we have to pay lots, this way they can bathe in expensive plum sauce.

[B]I don't know how many of you have done this but it's really amazing i took it from toolnavy.com[/B]


Well, here´s something to amuse and amaze you. I will write these instructions in steps, so don´t read it all at once, if you dont want to spoil it before you try this on your own. But I´llsuggest you to read this whole thing even if youhave "solved the puzzle", to see how far I could take it.And I´m sorry if my English is ****ed up at some points.


Well here goes:

Step 1:

Take that black slip covering the actual album package and turn it around so
you can see the track listing. Now take the inner sleeve and open it up, so you can see the man with the pentagram stuck in his throat. Use only this and the following page,fold back the last page (Bottleopenerpage, so it wont distract you.)
I prefer these two pages on for certain reasons. Next you´ll have to put the inner sleeve on the top of the tracklistblackslipthingee. Now as you´re beginning to position the inner sleeve to thecorrect position, remember to keep the inner sleeve page´s edges and the black slip´s edges parallel (this does not mean
that the inner sleeve edges should be on top of the black slip edges, they´ll just have to be parallel). Now youshould make the man´s tip of the nose touch the little quadrangle which is followed by a text:Triad.


Step 2:
With this positioning hold the slip and the sleeve against a light. Now you can see through the man.

Step 3:
If you´ve done the positioning as I did it and told you to do, then you can see certain things. You´ll see certain lines coming out from certain positions of the man´s face.


Step 4:

Faaip de oiad-line is coming from the mouth. (notice the pentagram)
Reflection-line is connected into the eye of the man. (I personally think that eye has a lot to do with reflections)
The little Disposition-X is in a small cavity (?) in the man´s forehead.
Lateralus is connected to the brain. (Thinking, thinking)


Step 5:
And now look on the top of the man´s head. There is something.

Step 6:
Reminds me of a crown. Keter? Or the crown of negativity?

Step 7:
Turn the page.

Step 8:
Definitely Keter. But on the other hand Ticks & Leeches are pretty close to the crown. Maybe it is the crown of negativity.


Now I´ll have a little extra fun for you.

Now that you have positioned the man so the GOD is crowned. Well there´s more crowns. Now flip the sleeve around so that you see the GOD from end to beginning "DOG", GOD as a mirror image, you know. Now above the crown that we found last time,you can see another crown. Now position the "DOG" in the exact same manner as you did with the GOD(The crown a little inside his skull.
If youve done this correctly, youll see a line connected to the man´s mouth. This aint no ordinary line. Well, youll, find out the rest.

Ugh, I want to try this, but I think you typed it out too quickly or something, because I can't get past step one without getting a headache. :p

Yeah it confused me to... and I don't want to bend up my Lateralus booklet. :p

Did anyone else listen to those Extol songs?

What confuses you?

Are you talking about the Lateralus vinyl, or the CD? You're saying a lot about sleeves and slips.

Pretty sure its the cd.

Well in that case I'm not bending up the booklet.

I like 'em.

the font reminds me the font-style of black metal :(

Does that mean they're releasing them separately? There are two separate entries on amazon.com.

'Sup Christmas Snake brother :cool:

I guess so.

I see many people are in the Christmas spirit. :-)

<-------So am I!

[QUOTE=Moses]I think the clean vocals are ace, especially on Gloriana. The dirty vocals are, well, dirty. Do you just not like growling?[/QUOTE]
I enjoy growling, when it's not abrasive, scratchy and annoying like these guys do.

Man.. those DVD covers look nice... I'm glad they didn't over do them, just plain and simple.

So AJG, are we going to see a Santa-Blair this holiday season?

[QUOTE=Otherside]So AJG, are we going to see a Santa-Blair this holiday season?[/QUOTE]

Heh, good to see Snake is excited for Xmas.

[quote=Darkness Of Greed]Man.. those DVD covers look nice... I'm glad they didn't over do them, just plain and simple.[/quote]

What DVD covers are these?

The new Schism/Parabola DVD single.

They're going to be released seperately? Bullshi[size=2]t.[/size]

No, I thought they were just releasing two different covers...

[QUOTE=Dried Muffin Remnants]No, I thought they were just releasing two different covers...[/QUOTE]
I hope so.

We'll see what the newsletter has to say, I guess tomorrow night or the day after.

Btw, somebody needs to give Richard D. James a Santa-hat.

if they did decide to release the Schism/Parabola DvD seperatly i think they might have behind the scenes footage, like a making of thing. But, they could also do this on one vid. but it wouldn't seem right to only have one dvd with both singles and the two seperate behind the scenes. But lets hope that they'll have making of......vids.

I doubt those covers will be the final covers for the DVD. They seem way too simplistic for Tool standards. :p Plus, the Olde English seems rather out of place considering Tool usually stick to their signature "melting letters" the majority of the time nowadays.
