What does this song sound like on your album? Does it sound like a crappy bootleg, or does it have good quality?

Yeah crappy bootleg i'm afraid :upset: still....great song.

Just wish they got it recorded properly before rage split.

[QUOTE=bassist-bmxer]I actually really like the undertow album, and i think the song 'undertow' is really good.

I have a wierd tool album, it's called Tool- The Ultimate Ultra Rare Trax. My girlfriend got it for me from London for christmas, its definetly fake though, but still quite a decent album.

Its actually more of a Maynard album as most of the songs are other band's songs with guest vocals from Maynard. But it does have some of Tool's early demo's.

playlist:
1)shandi's addiction-calling dr. love (kiss cover by maynard, tom morello, brad wilk and billy gould)
2)Rev 22:20 (Maynard, Danny Lohner)
3)Deftones-Passenger (Maynard guest vocals)
4)santa monica & orange (maynard guest vocals)
5)choked (loads of people but again Maynard guest vocals)
6)muhammad my friend (live duet between Maynard & Tori Amos)
7)The Melvins & Tool-Divorced
8)Sober (demo)
9)Part Of Me (demo)
10)Hush (demo)
11)crawl away (demo)
12)Jerkoff (demo)
13)Cold and ugly (demo)
14)Tool-spasm (live peach cover)
15)Tool-Wrong way (live sublime cover)
16)Tool & Ratm-Kill The Revolution

Track 14 (spasm) is a really good song (Peach is Justin Chancellor's old band)[/QUOTE]

I think a friend of mine has this. I'm dying to hear the Crawl Away demo.

And Divorced. Melvins are one of the greatest bands ever.

I dl Divorced and there isnt any instruments.

Werny: If you want, i'll send them to you.

Tori and Maynard made a good pair.

^yeah I love that song they did.

hmm.. going to the topic presented a pge or 2 ago..
a "best of Tool" ...
I don't think it wouild work. Each of Tool's albums are fairly distinct, and to mix the tracks up could sound fairly odd...
but I'll try anyways :D
Perhaps a 2-disc would work better? Have the more angry stuff on disc one, the more deep stuff on disc 2?

1.
Hush -[i]A nice start - heavy, but with a message[/i]
Intolerance
Prison Sex -[i] these 2 should be popular choices with fans [/i]
H. -[i] one of my personal favourites from Ænima [/i]
push[i]i[/i]t (live) -[i] the last 3 songs fit together as having a common theme IMHO[/i]
stinkfist
Ænema -[i] these two sit together due to the names[/i] :naughty:
Ticks & Leeches
Eulogy
The Grudge
- Ions -[i] a calming track, with negative ions to promote healing after letting out the anger [/i]

2.
schism -[i] "I know the pieces fit" ie a mishmash of different tracks fit together [/i]
Third Eye
46 & 2 -[i] opening the 3rd eye, and reaching towards the next level of evolution [/i]
parabol/parabola -[i] eternal life, through meditation [/i]
Lateralus -[i] best song ever.. had to on there [/i]
Disposition/Reflection/Triad

Who wouldn't love to own two CDs with those tracks on it?
I know I would.. although I already have most of them

Or, you could just make an mp3 cd with all of their songs on one cd. :p I like the list, for the most part. I would take out - ions. Not a fan of the 4 minute filler track, plus, I don't find it very calming. Actually, that's all I would take off. :thumb:

I tried making a Tool greatest hits for myself about 2 years ago with what I THOUGHT were Tool's best songs.I just chose the well known songs and singles.The track list was :
1.Part of Me
2.Hush
3.Sober
4.Prison Sex
5.Stinkfist
6.46 & 2
7.H.
8.Hooker With A *****
9.Schism
10.Parabola
11.Opiate
12.Undertow
13.Aenema
14.Lateralus

as you can see most of Tool's best songs aren't there.Maybe that tracklist would go for a good introduction to a friend or something.But I'd rather buy all their albums.
oh and I don't think Tool did that Sublime cover..it didn't sound like Maynard at all.They do a cover of Silly Love Songs which is pretty good..who is the original by?While on the subject of covers,I always thought their No Quarter cover on Salival was live,but it's actually a studio version.I might even go so far to say that it's better than the original :confused: just maybe.

[QUOTE=bassist-bmxer]Werny: If you want, i'll send them to you.[/QUOTE]

Nah man it's cool, someone at school has it, so it'd be easier to get them off him.

But thanks for the most generous offer!

My "best of" cd is alright. here it is:

1. The Grudge
2. Hush
3. Sober
4. Parabola
5. H
6. Aenema
7. The Patient
8. Stinkfist
9. Hooker With A Pen.is
10. Schism
11. Forty-Six & 2
12. Prison Sex
13. Lateralus

it flows together pretty well. these are all songs i put on when i first started listening to tool, and i thought these were their best songs. i hope to make a disc 2 with songs that i didn't even use in disc 1. like pus.hit, opiate, and disposition. songs like that.

With Peach, that song that Tool awesomely cover on Salival (You Lied), well, was that the original song length? Or did they extend it?

No they extended it by about 3 minutes.Tool's version is alot better by the way.Maybe if you heard Peach's version first you'd think otherwise...but Maynard turns everything to gold.Oh.Emotive never happened...

Oh. Shame. I wanna check out Peach.

You Lied is my favourite track from Salival. The best bass intro ever.

:lol:

So, anyone have any news on the breakup of APC?

Did anyone get that Axis of Justice thingo with Cornell and Maynard on it? Is it good?

It has a killer lineup or artists. Cornell, Morello, Serj Tankian, Maynard, Flea...etc..I haven't heard it though.

Could anyone tell me what kind of bass Justin Plays? I'm looking into buying a bass, and he has killer tone.

APC broke up, Are you TOyin or not?

:eek:

A couple members left.

/rampage insues


I thoguht this was old news...Howerdell his new project the dam[B][I][/I][/B]ning Well, and someone else up and left, I heard. This could be untrue, but I recall several people confirming this a couple weeks back, in this thread.

:eek:

/Starts riot

Edit:It's not on there website

So, last night I was roaming peoples computers and found a Stringed Tribute to Tool. Has anyone else ever heard of this? The group goes by a name similar to "the Third Eye tribute to Tool". It was pretty cool to listen to, considering I am a fan of classical instruments in music.

/will post a better post when I get home. Might upload something as well, depending on my internet credit.

I started the entire rumor that Napoleon Dynamite died, so this could be false....Don't trust my word, but I'd look into it...

Napoleon Dynamite didn't die?

Edit: Yeah he did...I had to reassure myself I wasn't going crazy

I coulda sworn everyone knew about this...:confused: Someone did say that Billy Howerdell left to be in some other band...

Yeah only because APC is on temporiary hiatus because of Maynard going over to Tool. He has to keep himself busy for a few years since Maynard will be with Tool for a while now. No more APC to at least 2007 im guessing.

I hardly come in here which explains why I haven't heard anything about it.

/Should post in here more often

Someone do a google search on The Dam[B][I][/I][/B]ning Well if you want to find out what is going on with the other members of APC

I think Maynard will work on both projects in the future. I believe he will put one on the back burner while he works on the other. I hope he realizes/remembers how special "Tool" is when he gets back with them. They have opened my eyes to so much it blows me away when I think about it.

They pried open your third eye, eh? Same here. It's amazing how a group of people so distant can impact your life in such a unique way.

Listening to Fantomas, Der Golem.

Is it possible? Am I ENJOYING A DEATH METAL BAND!!!???

But yeah. Tool have chosen their influences very well for the new album.

The group I mentioned earlier is called "Third Eye Open - The String Tribute to Tool". I suggest you give them a look if your into both Tool and stringed instruments (other than guitar and bass, I realise they are stringed instruments).

I can't give an upload due to my lack of internet credit, but I suggest check out [i]The Patient[/i] to start with.

Tool have had an impact on me like no other band.
The whole Lateralus album is pretty inspiring. Mainly Parabol/Parabola, Lateralus and Disposition/Reflection.

They inspired me to read Bob Frissell's book, which has been mentiond several times in this thread.
The messages contained in that book, and in Lateralus are changing my whole outlok on life -
"We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion"
"To swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human"
"Crucify the ego"
"We are all one mind, capable of all thats imagined and all conceivable"

I'm making an effort to live up to my potential, and be less of a jerk... to more at one with those around me... Tool have managed to start me turning into a new-age person... and I love them for it.

This would make very little sense, as APC IS Billy Horwdel, its his child. And those who mentioned the Daming Well, I didnt think billy was invloved with that? As far as I know, its Josh Freese, Wes Borland and the singer from Filter.

The one song they released makes me wish they doi become a permenant band though

Have you ever heard Wes Borland's solo album Duke lion fights the terror? That man is the a musical madman. Its a shame his talent is wasted in a band like Limp Bizket.

Was it Big Dumb Face or something one of his songs? Oh god, that was dire in its strangeness. i remember him saying he did it as a drunken dare, but the when he sobered up, he would plug on and do it.

I'd really like to hear that, I loved stringed instruments, and I've heard a few similar tributes to different artists; they usually sound awesome.

APC didn't break up, they're just seperated right now because Maynard isn't there. It doesn't make much of a difference, though, as long as Howederell and Maynard get back together, as they're the ones who write all the music for it. I hope to see more of it in the future, but for now we need some Tool.

Justin plays custom Wal mach 2's i'm pretty sure. I want one so bad.... one problem though...to get one new it would probably cost you around $3,000-$5,000 :upset:
