[QUOTE=Toaster]I think it was "A Trace of Blood" (or maybe "Rope Ends"?). I guess it doesn't really sound like Symphony X, but a lot of prog-metal kind of stuff sounds really cheesy to me.[/QUOTE]

Eh, not once has either of those songs felt cheesey (probably because there's actual meaning to the songs rather than what I usually associate as cheesey eg Dragonforce lyrics) to me but I suppose that's your opinion.

That particular song reminds me of music from Kubrik movies, particularly A Clockwork Orange (yuck!).

Edsel was one of Adam's pigs. Mo was the one pig who adorned the Undertow album artwork. I believe it was Mo, Edsel and now only Portis.
How I know all this? I have no idea...i'm a sad person. :p

Yea man, that is classic. My buddy showed that to me a couple weeks ago and I could not stop laughing

That's hilarious.

I'm on Tool Withdrawl for a few weeks.

I've listen to nothing but 10,000 Days and Lateralus all week.

Now time to unwind with Meshuggah and Dire Straits.

Hey Tool guys I think you need to check this out:

This sounds totally amazing but I don't have the album.

Old news man, we've been talking about that since yesterday.

That said, it's pretty frickin sweet.

That's pretty old, actually.

Oops sorry! Darn I thought I'd be the cool guy here for today.:upset:

sorry days like that are reserved for me everyday and for Moses when he posted that sync mp3

Of course, Moses wasn't the one to bring it to the forums.

Hmmm?

It was some crazed fanboy.

Yeah, he looked really far into things, like conjugating the title of LaTeRaLus, haha.

Nah I meant Moses was the coolest for putting the song on YSI since I don't have any of the songs on my computer(I bought the album :O)

...funny you say that, some of us regulars did that about 1000 pages ago. :lol:

No but just the way he said it, I found it to be hilarious.

[QUOTE=RoN_jErEmY].
I didn't know if you people knew this, but I thought I'd share it just in case -

la te ra lus

Take the "made up" word "Lateralus" . Notice how the letters are separated into groups of two? The last letter S is tacked onto the previous group

Each group relates to a chemical symbol
----------------------------------------------
LA: Lanthanum
TE: Tellurium
RA: Radium
LU: Lutetium
S(last single letter): Sulfur

Greek & Latin Meaning
--------------------------
Lanthanum: From the Greek word lanthaneis (to lie hidden)
Tellurium: From the Greek word tellus (Earth or Beneath)
Radium: From the Latin word radius (light ray)
Lutetium: From "Lutetia", the ancient Latin name for Paris(often called the "city of lights")
Sulfur: From the Latin word sulfur (hellfire or brimstone)

After conjugating the verbs and whatnot:
"Lying hidden beneath the light of Paris is hellfire."

Given Tool's almost obsessive interest in the aspects of "Rennes-le-Château" and it's connection to the ancient Paris meridian, I think it's fair to say the album title is significant..

Yeah, all we did (I think..) was:

LA: Lanthanum
TE: Tellurium
RA: Radium
LU: Lutetium
S(last single letter): Sulfur

I am the coolest aren't I?

Anyway, The Pot is the best song on 10,000 Days for me right now.

Same for me...and it sounds awesome live! Not that I've experienced it yet :upset: ..just recordings going around the net.

Did Moses sync it up right? I thought Wings part 1 was supposed to be synced first? Or did I misread?

It sounds a little weird to me... I'll need to listen to this back home to get a good idea of it because my system here is terrible.

The vocals at the end remind me of the Schism/Parabola DVD commentaries, which leads me to think maybe the band thought of this. Slightly overlapping yet sounding cool, the rest of it I thought sounded weird though, especially parts with the Viginti Tres being really loud... Maybe if someone mixes it well it would sound amazing and I listen on a better system.

^^

The mix does in fact go
Viginti Tres/Wing for Marie Pt 2
-------------
10,000 Days

Yeah, I reckon this has been in the brew for ages. I mean their little prerelease of Schism and Parabola was a sort of haha, look out for this on 10,000 Days, but cleasrly you wont be expecting it, or seeing it the day you buy it.

did any of you bellends realize that Roseta Stoned is 11:13 also?

Rosetta Stoned is 11:11 on my watch...
