April 4th?????

[Mr.Rubberburner]

Are you guys all under the same impression that I am. That something's going down April 4th?..........

[Paradigm619]

Where did this rumor come from?

[Goldfoot]

No, I am not under that impression.

[Ocelot199]

Where did this rumor come from?
Systolic, I believe. His radio friend said the single is going on the air on the 4th or something.

[Goldfoot]

Systolic, I believe. His radio friend said the single is going on the air on the 4th or something.

Then he came back saying that since it was announced on TB as the 17th they weren't gonna do it anymore.

[Ocelot199]

Then he came back saying that since it was announced on TB as the 17th they weren't gonna do it anymore.
Followed up by his radio friend claiming that he was going to leak the track himself on Wednesday if it doesn't air Tuesday.

[ViVisekt6]

expectations are high!

GRAB YOUR PITCHFORKS!!

kabir/tdn/headline of april 1 joke.

[Ocelot199]

April 1st: January newsletter.

yes.

[sleaz1]

april 4 - march newsletter... maybe

is it july yet?

[Havokb8]

All i know is i just spent 2 hours looking on IRC and i cant find it wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[dilaudid]

That's the impression that I got from the news title. It seemed weird that he put it "four (4) listening parties," along with the fact that he said that there is a real meaning behind it. of course, it was an april fools gag, so he may have just been stirring the pot a little to give us something to do until 4/17.

You clearly missed the thread thats since been deleted where systolic went fairly psycho with alter-ego's.

[Ocelot199]

Yeah, I work for a living. Can't be here all the time...

I still am holding out for Systolic... I really hope he does deliver tomorrow. If he doesn't, he is going to be destroyed on these boards.

[bshull2]

[Ocelot199]

I do and I don't. Its not like I'm going to be able to resist listening to the single in another week or so when it officially gets released on Toolband. I don't really see the point in forcing myself not to listen to it.

Now, the entire album leaking on the other hand... I'm definately going to wait to buy it before I listen.

So Systolic was full of shit right?

yeah.

[just simulacra]

Yes, very much so.

[IAMNOTBENLEIGHTON]

I firmly believe that something could happen today (April 4th)
Reading Tools January Newsletter, where Blair condicted an Ouiji board working, the date April 4th is mentioned, however apparently systematically rejected by the spirit itself. However, as Blair so very generously likes to be very cryptic with his wordings and interpretations of occult aspects, im not clever enough to be able to decipher anything at all in relation to it. I definately think there are more clues hidden in it. Damn, wheres my Enochian translator?

[Rubb.]

The album came out today. I saw it at Kmart.

[Nebel]

Just think... if Tool had stuck to the original date, we'd be getting it today.

[mattw]

The album came out today. I saw it at Kmart.

My Tasmanian firend gave me a call earlier today after he had picked up the new album. He bragged about how cool Tasmaina was for getting the 'new release' so early...









It's apparently called 'Lateralus'


... and its first single, 'Schism' should hit Tasmanian radio sometime soon in 2006.


p.s. Rubb is the only Tasmanian person I know. Poor bastards! All forgotten and neglected down there...

[ladiatia]

That would be actually pretty cool. Let's wait until may 2. No april fool on TB. No lies this time around.

Salud!

tasmania gets stuff early all the time...like harry potter movies and shit...cuz it's just such a l33t place...

i need to pee.

[clone]

the album would have been released today...

[Rubb.]

in two minutes it is april 5th, meaning t-24d

[Bogart]

How do you figure?

[Rubb.]

mathematics.

[tooldude]

the album would have been released today...

...i dont get it...

[Bogart]

*waiting for something to go down

[Nebel]

The album was originally scheduled for April 4th a while ago.

[Rubb.]

damnit why do we have to wait until the 5th for it to be the 4th where things happen.

[Rubb.]

24 days.

[millermt]

He is referring to the Adam Jones soundboard photo. The date 4/4/06 was extracted from that photo. Blair later revealed that it was indeed a message relaying the target date for the release of the new album.

[Nebel]

He's talking about the Australian release.

[tooldude]

unless hes from down under...

[B vs F]

nothing will happen today...

and yes, systolic is a liar...

[Sketch Soland]

fuck the IDL

and as for me, i thought i heard a local DJ say "new tool coming up" and i about had a seizure waiting for it but turns out it was just stinkfist and i about reached through the radio and choked the bastard but then i decided to experience the new single vicariously through an old one....

[Bogart]

and yes, systolic is a liar...

I don't believe everything he said was a lie.

[Rubb.]

29th.

it's the 5th here.

[Bogart]

He is referring to the Adam Jones soundboard photo. The date 4/4/06 was extracted from that photo. Blair later revealed that it was indeed a message relaying the target date for the release of the new album.

Ahh...now it comes to me.

[mike tyson]

someone go to the record store and see if they have it omglol

[Sketch Soland]

i might go war with some mystics today,

but that's about all.

[Bogart]

someone go to the record store and see if they have it omglol
That would be the shit, and the best record release ever.

[B vs F]

I don't believe everything he said was a lie.


well... if anything that systolic said i´ts true i´ll apologize to him... but...

[mike tyson]

then someone go look

[mike tyson]

i'm too lazy and it's no way out until may 2nd

[orange.juice]

23 days :)

[tooldude]

you guys suck... those extra 4-5 days are gonna be hell

[DirtyBanana]

There are still 18 hours (LA time) to the 5th of April. 18 hours where vicarious could be leaked via toolband.com.

[DirtyBanana]

can we put systolic and his stories to rest plz.

[Ocelot199]

He still has 12 hours to fulfill his promise, and I believe he is at school right now. Give him some time, its still April 4th...

[Grimface]

23 days :)

Table 23 8)

[tooldude]

yeah didnt he say he'd have a copy of vicarious or something??....cant wait for this one.........

[Grimface]

If something's going to "leak" in a way or another, it will be straight from the band. At least radio stations have nothing. I just e-mailed FMQB and asked if they had the Vicarious single already (remember that one dude from last night who gave us the link to their site and claimed to have that song already), and when were they going to stream clips of it. They said:

Hi!
Unfortunately we don't have a copy yet. I think they are keeping the new Tool music under lockdown. As soon as we get a copy, we will post a clip. It will probably be in a few weeks.
-Mandy-

All we can do is wait.

[DirtyBanana]

He already said that his radio friend might have fooled him.

Give it up, he is a bullshitter.

[tooldude]

surprise surprise

[tooldude]

wow....good call

[dave.]

Fact.

[Grimface]

Well then, I guess they missed their mark. No?
Things that are impossible usually don't happen.

[millermt]

I'm just glad the one month delay was behind the scenes this time around.

Blair actualy cleared this up in a news post where he said the original release date was going to be april 4th but it got pushed back a month.

[zavlin]

duuude, what you missed was him having a psychotic conversation with an alter ego of himself, doing things like making up lyrics, and then logging on systolic and going "yeah thats them!" and then logging the other one on. He got caught, and responded with a "fuck everyone" attitude, and was like "this was the best joke ever!" and then went away.

That would be pretty amazing if he accomplished something today, i sincerely doubt it though.

No, that was other people using his information and passwords to look like him. Windir kicked a bunch of people's asses because of it.

Get with the times.

ok mr. "I wasnt there i was working". He was definitely bullshitting, but since that thread is gone, you can examine this one instead, http://www.toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=39658

And make sure you get to the 2nd page where he admits he was making even more shit up again.

[Ocelot199]

I talked to Windir and Systolic about it. They both said the same thing... other people were fucking with his account. Windir even made a thread about it telling people to fuck off or get banned.

Edit: here. (http://toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=39581)

[DirtyBanana]

Seems to me like Systolic's friend could have played him any old shit, said it was Tool and he would have believed him.

I have absolutley no expectations for any sort of leak from him.

Unless of course it's the Doom 3 intro....


And I have not once dismissed that as a possibility.

Everyone has simply assumed that what I have heard is legit. Theres always a chance that it isnt.


this is how it ends.

Ugh, i followed this thread in detail, and without it still being theres noway to show you exactly what happened;) Have fun chasing his lies more;) At least the single is bound to get released somewhere eventually...

[Ocelot199]

this is how it ends.
Whats wrong with that? He was told it was the single and believed it... its not his fault if it isn't legit after all. We've all been fooled a few times...

[zavlin]

this is how it ends.

THIS SHIT IS FUCKIGN REAL!

IVE ALRESDY SENT IT O PEOPLE

YOU CAN HEARMAYNRAD SING AND EVERYIHTN

ITS LIPAN CONJURING

tee...hee...

[Ocelot199]

That was something else he found, which he later admitted he was wrong about. I've pulled a false alarm before too, when I honestly thought it was legit. It happens... its not really his fault.

[DirtyBanana]

yeah whatever...

i advise you to bet on toolband.com instead of systolic for a leak today.

[Bogart]

We'll see dirty, hopefully you're right.

[tyroneslothrop]

I went to my local record store today. Maynard was working there. I asked him if the album was out today and he said "you betcha, you must be really smart having figured out our elaborate hoax". Then he asked me how much money I had. I told him I had 100 bucks. He said we had to keep the secret release date extra secret so we needed to go out in the back alley to complete the transaction. Then he kicked me in the nuts and stole my wallet. I can't wait until aldarain comes out.

[liquidswordz]

didnt everyone who emailed their local radio station receive the same reply : "we should get the single around april 17th and well play it as soon as it is in our hands". i could be wrong but im pretty sure about ten people got that same reply. if that's the case then isn't that enough evidence that systolic's friend is fucking with him? i really hope im wrong, but i dont see why one radio station would get the track 2 weeks before every other station.

I got that reply from WIIL Rock. But WJJO in Madison told me that They would have it next week which is now this week. They could have been wrong though.

[amhx147]

maybe the radio stations are all in on the april fools joke as well! maybe the cd came with a letter, instructing all of them what to do!

[fraz]

wasn't systolic supposed to provide a leak by now - it's April 5th

[Rubb.]

yeah

[hellboy1975]

I can't wait until aldarain comes out.

Actually, Aldarain is coming out of the sky here in Yeppoon as we speak. Sounds nothing like what I expected - no Polirythms!

OMG Polyrhythms! But isn't that what makes Tool so unique?! Everytime we talk about them I'm like "man they use polyrhythms" and everyone else is like "OMG POLYRHYTHMS!" If this new album doesn't have polyrhythms I think I'll cry!

[The Official Fiction]

Me too.
