Who was it on here that said they got a myspace message from Adam? In the message, there was some weird patterns with vertical lines. Does anybody remember what that pattern was? I think I may or may not have figured something out about • • • - • • - - • - -, and that pattern from Adam is really needed (as the person who got the message said that it fit into • • • - • • - - • - - ). Anyone?

He messaged me with this pattern

Tell us what you think you've got. :)

Morse Code?

It's not Morse Code. Someone thought it was Morse until they plugged every combination of letters into that specific pattern and got nothing.

Not again...

And I didn't get to check that other song out yet Moses, I will soon though.

I know. It only comes out with a load of T's.

Maybe that means something!:p

May be i[u]t[/u] means you should jus[u]t[/u] wai[u]t[/u] patien[u]t[/u]ly for the new album.

Hey! Four words that end with T! It's obviously a code! If you divide that number by two, and then add 2, you get 2/4/06. It means the album comes out February 4th!

amirite? amirite?

[QUOTE=Kage]/beats dead horse[/QUOTE]

:rolleyes:

My Melvins one was way better than that. :p

Moses, that one you're working on for your band is really good!
I loved the main riff in it, it sounded kinda thrashy, and different from alot of stuff I usually hear.

When do you think I can hear it with vocals?

I think I'll start my OMGWAGB-Isis thread right now :thumb:

<3 Isis

...But am I the only one who likes Celestial the most? I like when they're very heavy and sludgy. I think that Oceanic is more boring.

I haven't heard Celestial :/

I love Oceanic though.


What do you guys think I should upload for people? Which album?

I just finished listening through Oceanic. I love that album, it's so good. I like it better than any of their other albums. The atmosphere of it is perfect for Isis' sound.

I'm now listening to Pelican, which is the king of all Post metal, in my opinion. This album is unstoppable. My favorite of '05.

If you want I can help with some Celestial d/ls. I like it because of the raw heaviness fused with post-rock.

Oceanic is almost post-rock to me; it sounds more like Thaw from Pelican. I just think that Pelican has a better lighter sound than Isis. However, I think Isis is much better than Pelican when they're heavy.

For the raw heaviness you crave (with still some great post rock mixed in), have you heard Cult of Luna? I think you'd enjoy them. They can be intensely heavy, yet also very soft. Kind of like Isis, but with a different vibe to it overall.

Sendage? Have you heard Celestial?

I love the harmonics part in Deconstructing Towers... At least I believe they arte.

Most definate sendage.

I haven't heard all of Celestial, but some of it. I like it, but Oceanic rules as a whole album. Of course, I shouldn't make the judgement until I've heard Celestial in full.

Cult Of Luna....

they rule so much.
They are great, one of my favorite bands.

This is probably wrong, but I took a shot. In my theory, • • • - • • - - • - - is using the Mayan numerical system. Check out this website:

[url]http://library.thinkquest.org/J0112511/mayan_number.htm[/url]

The numbers are all determined by dots, lines, and a weird shape thing. I figured that maybe I'd try and see if the Tool code thing could possibly be using the Mayan numerical system. I tried it, but felt that there was too many possibilities with the numbers still, and that's where Adam's message came in. I tried to fit that in with the original Tool symbol thing to see if anything fit. I'm still working on it, but what I have so far is this (the symbols aren't going to line up properly. The original symbols from Tool's website should be pushed over one space, so the first dot is under and inbetween the the first 2 vertical lines):

| | | | . | . | | | |
• • • - • • - - • - -

Notice those 2 parts in the middle where the spaces are bigger than the others? Well, picture the line being on the bottom (5) with the dot next to it and the dot in Adam's code thing being on top of the line. That would create a 7. So, if you take the first 3 dots as indivual numbers, it would be 1 1 1. With the 7, it is 1 1 1 7. I think this is 11/17, personally. This is mostly all I've got so far. I'm trying to see if there's a 2005 in the next part. In the next bigger space, it's once again 2 dots and a line, except the line is on the right this time. Perhaps, the dot and the line form that weird looking shape that equals 0. However, when that symbol has a dot above it, it equals 20, which is how the dot in adam's message fits in. The next part that I'm thinking of doesn't seem to work too well yet. What I'm thinking is that maybe the line-dot-line also equals that strange symbol. It seems to represent the shape. This is really where my theory doesn't work because how can the symbol be represent by two different orderings of lines and dots? I'm not sure yet, just go with it. So, say that is the special symbol. It equals 0. So, that's 200, with one symbol left. The last symbol is a line, which is 5. So, it's 2005. The final number: 1 1 1 7 20 0 5, or 11/17/2005. The reason I felt like telling everyone this, isn't neccesarily because I feel my theory works perfectly 100% (it doesn't), but actually to see if someone else on here can contribute to this theory and see if they find something with the symbols that I haven't found. I'm sure there's smarter people on here than me. Possibly, someone can come up with a more convincing way of finding the 2005? :p I know I know, I'm just looking too much into it, I'm just bored, and I came up with this, and wanted to hear what you guys thought about it.

Can I be one of the few to say that Tool really didn't mean anything when Blair typed that crap up?


Oh, and okay then. Journals. vbRadio. Flashy stuff. So how about bringing back the New Posts button?

^^Some of my song for this month's competition, I think it's pretty sweet.

What do you guys think?

Cool riff.

Thanks, I like the one at the end the most.

[QUOTE=BlindWriting]Can I be one of the few to say that Tool really didn't mean anything when Blair typed that crap up?

[/QUOTE]

You can be whatever you want to be! :p Seriously though, why would Blair make reference to it in one of the newsletters also if it didn't mean anything?

OK, so lately I've been listening to a lot of Dredg, and I am absolutely love the songs 18 People Live In Harmony, Of the Room, and It Only Took A Day. I know the majority of people in here like them too, but really, how much?

Great Job Brian :thumb: I like it.

Schism
 

No, no, no, Iai. The lyrics for Schism fit with the whole theme of the album Lateralus. I think that the overall theme of the album is reconciliation. I don't believe that Schism is referring to anything as specific as the centuries-old feud between Catholicism and Protestantism, or two different religions for that matter. I believe it is a more general exploration of relationships and human connections, and the way we are connected by love to one another. Schism addresses the need for communication between people in order for them to be compassionate and loving to one another.
