IMO Novel One

I see Tool Albums as a damn good book that you read and take it in the way your minds processes it.

I always saw their cds as gel pens. You always want to use one but then once you've tried it out a few times you realize it's quite over hyped and not as cool as you once thought. Either that or I see it like an Oreo Cakester.

Re: IMO Novel One

I dunno....I never tried to listen to just one song off any tool album. I always listen to the whole thing. I mean, thats why its an album right? So we enjoy the collection of songs? not the individual ones?

No. Tool puts thoughts into how their albums flow--yes, but that doesn't mean it isn't just a bunch of songs pieced together with little or no revelance. It's simply another cd. Tool are just artists who piss away tons of time between albums and don't rush out material for the consumer's dollar. Does that make them super-human-rock-gods who's albums can solely be enjoyed as a whole or the world will self destruct as we know it?

No, fuck off and listen to Reflection followed by Wings for Marie.

Yeah, all albums have a certain flow, but in the end it's just a collection of songs. There is no disputing it. If you were writing songs, you'd put them in the order you feel tells the best story etc, that doesn't mean people have to listen to it as an album.

You get just as much out from the single songs.

Of course my favorite part to all this is the classic Yast3r cool guy posturing. So dramatic and exciting.

Actually, you lose. The Inner_Eulogy way is the ONLY way

Re: IMO Novel One

So by 'truly sad' you mean....deadly funny?

Tool albums aren't exactly flowing. Except kinda Lateralus.

I mean, sure i could just go and listen to schism over and over again, and fuck the rest of the tool songs. But where's the point? I could skip Mantra all the time, but i don't.
sure, you could give me a pat on the back and say good on you, or say "so fucking what?"

Album track ordering is an art. Skipping tracks, just to get to your favourite song shows you're impatient, and probably don't even like Tool, because 5 minutes is too long when there is a 2 min piece of shit by Fall Out Boy around as well. So fuck you!!

Cheers

You know, that kinda relates to the whole kung fu vs. wrestler thing.

One love!
Last night was our get together you troll. We played horseshoes and baked muffins--low fat, in case you were wondering.

Also, I believe I started going at you before Rivek--you seem to have forgotten that.

PS: Stop your obsession with me, you don't need to mention me in every other post you make. I've long forgotten your shitty observations and opinions and have moved on. I suggest you do the same as no one here gives a flying fuck whether or not you read these forums.

Do us a favor and leave.

Don't eat rusty things--even when they're as delicious as chops. You may need to get a shot if you do consume it.

I'm going to take a guess that with a lame remark like that you're still in Jr. High. Perhaps you should consult somebody with at least an average IQ before you try to make a burn. Not to mention the fact that I was obviously joking in the first place.

Seems like your Rivek's running mate already, so do some suggestions which you would add to that speech.

-We will put food in every kittens mouth.
-We will lock up all retarded posters and create a simulated internet which is exclusive to them.
-Aliens will visit the earth and bring us umbrellas of grand design which our brains could never dream of.
-Mice will dance on every kitchen table--the macarina, shuffle, disco and victory dances.
-Cyclops will no longer drown if near a dolphin or octopus.
-Music will no longer suck.
-All birds will catch on fire and scream "I'm a pheonix!"
-Jesus will come back to life only to say that he isn't God's son.
-Food (even synthetic food like fruit roll-ups) will grow on the side of every structure.
-Criminals will not exist.
-Loin cloths will become the most fashionable formal wear.
-Everyone will have the opportunity to change their name into something more desirable; Horris, Yeshmin, Sinn, Chorral, Drunvalo, Steve.
-Internet Memes will have a designated museum to preserve their 15 minutes of fame.

That's just some of what Riv-Yas 08' have to offer.
