Hahaha. Someone made a fake account under the name [b]kubir[/b] and posted a link saying it was a snippet from the new song.

It was just that Doom 3 track that sounds like Lateralus though. I fell for it.

:upset:

lateralus was vibrant with colour, whatsup with the greyness in the new art

Ugh... This toolnavy forum thing is lame...
I'm pretty sure "Kabir's update" isn't going to be anything incredible, and now the servers are busy, but I kinda NEED to know what the hell he's going to post... I guess I'm just weird like that :/


And if you don't know what I'm talking about, try and head over to the Toolshed forum if you can.

Same here..I can't seem to go to bed until I find out what the hell is going on over at ToolNavy..but I haven't been able to get access to the forums for like the past hour! It's probably going to be some in depth review of the album..though there was some information released earlier..did you see it?

I've been there like now, nothing has been posted except

No update for a few hours at least, someone has a hot date, but here are a few tidbits:

- This album sounds like a combination/mix of all four previous albums
- Vicarious is the most like a standard Tool rock song, if there is such a thing
- As the album progresses, it goes from "This sounds like the Tool I know" to "I can tell this is Tool, but holy **** this is different" due to the arrangement of tracks.
- Lipan Conjuring is a filler type track, so is Viginiti Tres
- Lost Keys has a weird soundtrack/speaking clip throughout in the background, and is sort of a lead-in to Rosetta Stoned
- Wings part 1 and 2 apparently ****ing rock. Hard.
- There are many quiet parts in the album, or places where the music stops.
- Multiple start out slow or quiet

I hope I'm not stealing too much of Kabir's thunder, just trying to pass on what little info I have.

*sigh*
I was just able to get onto the boards..and nothing. ^That's all I've read as well. There are alot of upset people over at toolnavy though, heh. Damn it, I can't believe I'm still up...

I just woke up. The sooner you go to sleep, the sooner you'll wake up and see the news man. Go back to sleep. Go back to sleep.

Im glad im not drooling over leaks or images. For Lateralus, all my friends came over and we had a listening party on a bose surround system. It was quite the experience. I've since moved, but plan on hearing nothing til I have the album in my hand, a nice dank nug and a pair of good headphones.

Just this minute kabir posted a message saying sorry for the delay. Bloody glad I went to sleep.

He'll probably release whatever he's on about in teh next couple of minutes.

lol i cant believe this

I'm so excited now :( I've been ill the past couple of days and was having vivid dreams, one involved me driving into town to pick up the album then putting it on in my car and driving back :confused:. That was it. But it sure was more fun than being an aphid :-/

Ben upload your background please (YSI/Photobucket/whatever), i had to print screen and stuff and mine looks rather poo. I've got it centered on a black background. If yours looks better (which i think it will) I'd like to use it.

so who like that review presonally that got me really excited for the new album
:thumb:

Sounds good, just what I've been reading/expecting. I'm sure this album is going to be worth the wait, but I'm trying not to have any preconceptions, because i'll only be let down if I let them slip in.

Obviously, we've all moved onto different things besides Tool, so maybe they won't go in the direction we want, but the fact is, if you open this album with an open mind and give it a chance I'm sure it'll be rewarding.

exactly who knows it might be one of those albums that grows on u in time aswell

honestly, every TOoL album grew on me. Songs i listened to at first, always became my least favorites later on, and vice versa.


I still hate sober. Always did :lol:

lol really? What's wrong with Sober? My only complaint with it is from the big drum build up, the song dosn't really climax as much as it should.

its the household TOoL song, and its played about 1000 times more than any other TOoL song.


the video is bad arse, but i have no desire to listen to it. EVER. If i were in a band, and they wanted to cover that song, i would abstain from participating. Honestly, i cant think of any song of theirs that comes close the dis-satisfaction i have with that song :lol:

I'm listening to it now;

There's a shadow just behind me! Shrouding every step I take!
Making every promise empty, pointing every finger at me!

Oh yeah, Prison sex riff.

i love playing prison sex on my 7 string --> krank amp

sweet. I love playing the riff, but the downtuning is such a faff for me.

beauties of the 7 string :D


i just use string skipping, as opposed to actually downtuning.

i must agree im not the biggest fan of sober anymore lol used to be like my favourite tool song ever but now it makes me puke lol

ill actually turn it off if its on the radio. The one band i was in for a brief period wanted to cover that song. I 'black balled' it immediately :lol:

lol atleast u get that kinda stuff on the radio all i get is rap and pop omgz so depressing lol

i hate the fukking radio


IPOD + 25 gigs of music for the win :thumb:

Who are your favourite rap and pop artists?

talib kweli
delton 3030

[QUOTE=Shadius]Who are your favourite rap and pop artists?[/QUOTE]
Ludacris, Nas, Outkast for rap and Kelly Clarkson, and Black Eyed Peas for pop. I'm also starting to like Fall Out Boy.

ewwwwww


u like the black eyed peas!? WTF is wrong with you :lol:

*distraction* lets talk about tool:chug:

Sober is one of my favorite songs by TOOL, although I do agree that it's overplayed by radios. Still an awesome song.


3 Days till Vicarious, can't wait to hear the new single!

It will be different from all else we've heard.

I just hope this isn't the last album.

Yeah, I'm hoping it's a little bit more aggressive personally.

It'll be both agressive and super-melodic at the same time, an etheral hodgepodge. It'll be fantastic, that's all.

30-seconds of Vicarious:

Enough said..

I'm so tempted to click that but I won't.

wheres the full song??


/clicks link

It's just 30-seconds. No harm..

It's from a radio station that wanted to play it first, so they gave the listeners a teaser..

I would give my opinion, but I will leave it up to you guys..

But! Just to give you heads up...I almost started to masturbate..
