Your welcome :)

simma down now

Wow, the store here has 10,00 days:eek:

And its like a mini walmart.

im thinking about picking up an extra copy for the "suppose" of it

suppose?

I already have my copy, and the m4a album that was uploaded:p

Its #4 in my record shop in the charts. And this is against the usual sub par indie, rap and pop trash.

Im still waiting on someone to get the opening lyrics to Rosetta Stoned, its bugging me.

their single hit #3 in the US, in the respective genre



edit :

if you've noticed the other lyrics of the song, its not supposed to be clear. I DO know the gist of what its getting at, and honestly, it still doesnt make sense

The single counts in the US chart, unlike in the UK. But considering how big they are in the US compared to the UK, im happy its doing this well.

Plus there's a big poster in the window of my record store i'll be asking for when it comes down :)

yea, i really need to decorate the new place. Bare walls are starting to get to me...



on an un-related note, i did put the 10,000 days sticker on the wrapper of the CD on my Car

Does anyone here know anything about the puzzle contained in the artwork for 10,000 days?

I didnt get a sticker! :angry: What did it look like?

it was red lettering and the sticker itself was translucent (see-through)

it was attached to the shrink wrap on the CD

there is no "puzzle". thats something pretensious TOoL fans think of to make it sound more important, or thought out

[QUOTE=Che Guevara]it was red lettering and the sticker itself was translucent (see-through)

my girl is the type that can get a sticker off of ANYTHING...



the first time i saw the sticker, i KNEW it was getting saved. I could try to take a pic on my girls cellphone and msg it to ya tomorrow if you wanna see what i mean

Ugh email? I don't own a phone.(Seriously no phone in the apt)

But ugh [email]Norsiedals@yahoo.com[/email]

Would be cool :D

alright, ill try to work something out. Im not sure exactly how to send the pics via email, but i know how to send them to friends, where they send them to their email, and id be set :lol:


confused yet?

The Toolband site says that their is some sort of puzzle, however their certainly is a good chance that their lying to us.

At 3:45 in the pot......what is it? is it bass?

A little :upset: Thanks though.

I've posted here a long time ago, and well, I've picked up 10,000 Days. IT IS ****ING AWESOME. All of the songs are amazing except Lipan Conjuring and Viginit Tres (whats the deal with that one anyway). My favorite song is probably Right in Two. Speaking of which, is that slide part at the beggining bass? I know Justin has a bass Whammy so I was thinking that might be whats going on.

[QUOTE=an_ash_in_the_fall]Hey, I know this is kind of a throwback, but I kind of wanted to get this forum back on track... you know... theories on the songs?
One of my all time favorites is The Patient off of Lateralus. I love the guitar intro and the drums throughout, but I've been thinking a lot about the lyrics:

03 the patient •

A groan of tedium escapes me,
Startling the fearful.
Is this a test? It has to be,
Otherwise I can't go on.
Draining patience, drain vitality.
This paranoid, paralyzed vampire act's a little old.

But I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right here.

Wait it out,
Gonna wait it out,
Be patient (wait it out).

If there were no rewards to reap,
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here,
I certainly would've walked away by now.
Gonna wait it out.

If there were no desire to heal
The damaged and broken met along
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away by now.

And I still may ... (sigh) ... I still may.

Be patient.
I must keep reminding myself of this.

And if there were no rewards to reap,
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here,
I certainly would've walked away by now.
And I still may.

Gonna wait it out.




I have a theory: This song is about Maynard's mother, who was a cancer patient for 27 years (this might also be the reason for the title "10,000 days (27 years is 9,855 days... almost 10,000.)) ANy thoughts?[/QUOTE]

That is actually a really good concept i never would have thought of anything like that, well done if your right. But to be honest it must mean something...

The whole song:

Alrighty then... picture this if you will...

Time to de-wrap that chili dog
Eat a box of krispy kremes
We've ID'd an air pollutant [indiscernable] area 51
Contemplating the whole truth
Of people thinking we just took a flaming
Stale banana split the sky light, well
One opened up we'd expect to see a place like this
Code red i'll put us in a diamond setting
Right on my birkenstocks in the open
Holy ****ing ****... holy ****ing ****...

Let the x-file be entered
As some kind of blue creature
[indiscernable]
If you look at your appearance for a moment you can see
Another banana bourbon enema
Someone hovered above my buckeyes
My daily chore
Maybe i'll run over the upper lip but all i could think was
[indiscernable] ****ing cats

The sewer line is waiting
Like an apparition he had me crying out
**** me! sodomy!
A dead head chemistry! bladder problems won't stifle me!
If i can't make it, people who are watching see.

And after calming me down with some orange slices and some needle spooning
He revealed to me a singular purpose, he said, you are the chosen one
The one who will deliver the message
A message of hope for those who choose to hear it
And a warning for those who do not
Me, the chosen one... they chose me
And i didn't graduate from ****ing high school

**** the bed
**** better
You better
You better listen

He looked right through me
With somniferous almond eyes
Don't even know what that means, must remember to write it down
This is so real,
Like the time that he floated away
See my heart is pounding
Cause this **** never happens to me
Can't breathe right now, it was so real
Like i woke up in wonderland
Also a bit terrifying
I don't want to be all alone when i tell this story
And can anyone tell me why? [indiscernable]
Will i ever be coming down?
This is so real, finally it's my lucky day
See my heart is racing
Cause this **** never happens to me

Can't breathe right now

You believe me don't you, please believe what i just said
See they're telling true and... and this wasn't all in my head
So they took me by the hand and invited me right in
Then they showed me something
I don't even know where to begin
Strapped down to my bed,
Feet cold and eyes red,
I'm out of my head,
Am i alive am i dead,
Can't remember what they said
God damn **** the bed
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position
Such a heavy burden now to be the one
Born to bear and read to all
The details of our ending
To write it down for all the world to see
But i forgot my pen, **** the bed again
Typical
Strapped down to my bed,
Feet cold and eyes red
I'm out of my head
Am i alive am i dead,
Sunkist and Sudafed, gyroscopes, and infrared won't help
Brain dead, can't remember what they said
God damn **** the bed
I can't remember what they said to me
Can't remember what they said to me
Made out to be a hero
Can't remember what they said

[indiscernable] oh no
God damn **** the bed

Wow thanks dude. Where did you find those? (I never exactly looked myself..)

If you search google, there are lots of sites with them. Toolshed has them now:

I got the album on Friday.

I gotta say, the artwork owns all.

"Wings/10,000 Days" are beautiful, and so is "Right in Two".

"The Pot" was even cooler than I had expected.

"LK/Rosetta Stoned" are odd but very cool.

Overall, I loved the album.

I've been really into Opiate & Undertow lately.

I think I enjoy those more than 10,000 days because they have more of a "metal/hard rock" sound to them.

Anemia is my fav though.

I don't know about anyone else, but Jambi has really grown on me.
