For progressive rock/metal band, Tool don't seem too progress far. Let's analyse Vicarious.

The intro is just the riff for Schism, good progression here.

Then it breaks down into a shit riff which isn't too different from their past albums.

The vocals are terrible and dry.

Goes into some more shit riffs, most of which sound like they've been ripped from Catch 33, chord/chord/palm mute/chord/chord/palm mute...bzzt boring.

The lyrics are incredibley stupid and angsty, "I want to watch the whole world die", c'mon guys. This is worse than NIN. The "why can't we just admit it" line sounds like it's from a Limp Bizkit song.

Some more boring riffs and tremelo picking, fantastic. Then back to the shitty Meshuggah chugga chugga riffs.

The end is a little bit better, Danny shows he can actually drum unlike previous records which were dumb and slow, Maynards vocals are a bit more full and sound better, but this makes up like 30 seconds of a 7 minute song, woo!

In conclusion, this album is utter crap and Tool are about as progressive as Godsmack.

Let's HOPE this doesn't represent the entire album. Not that I want this to be catchy AS in POPPY... but the riffs don't really show any thought. They just kinda picked up the guitars and started bangin on open D chords then palm mute and fuck around with the picking. GUH-AY. I can write better riffs.... and I do. There's nothing wrong with repetition if there's something worth repeating... this has none of that.

You're not giving this song enough credit. I'm sure within the past week you listened to Lateralus and you were expecting this new album to sound like it. It's not and they said 'don't expect Lateralus 2'.
Your comment on Danny = fucking ignorant. How, in any way, did Danny NOT prove he can drum in the other albums? Did I miss something?
In conclusion, you're a fucking idiot to compare TOOL to Godsmack. Your opinion is worth utter crap and you should probably jump of Maynard's Dick.

i havent really listened enough to digest it lyrically and thematically

it certainly sounds pleasant to me though.

but using one song to demerit an entire album is just plain idiocy.

I hope the rest of the album is better than this song.

The song is good, but it's lacking.

Well forget Danny(who is, by the way, amazing on this track) and forget Maynard, and forget the tremelo picking, I think Justin has really stepped up his game. To me it sounds alot better then some of his earlier stuff.

I think you're being pretty ignorant, praefector. He dislikes the song, so what? Did you write it? Are you in Tool?

Don't let other people's opinions bother you so much.

and i think youre being confrontational because youre bored...

his opinion doesnt bother me

its just nonsensical to say "this will be the most regressive album" when all he's heard is the first single.

Also, the new Anal Cunt album is coming out which I think will be more progressive than the new Tool album.

Fucking A.

The song is bullshit. The guy can say whatever he wants about regressive/progressive... but he's right, the song is shit. It's fucking stupid. It's trying to do too much with no real application of thought to the actual riffs. The rhythm & the structure are the only thing that they put thought into OBVIOUSLY. Maynard's lyrics/voice are slipping down the shitter faster than my diahrea.

But I'm not trying to say the whole album is going to be like this...

and Sober was a fuckin badass song. So shut yer mouth.

This song was not made to fucking re-invent progressive rock as we know it, it was made to get you pumped up and excited for the rest of the album, like a first track should.
