well it does take them 5 years to release an album, maybe it takes another 5 to recognize it. also: maybe Blair is just a douche bag.

Oh yeah, the webmaster didn't update the official site...that must mean the members of Tool are ashamed of 10,000 Days. Are you kidding me? I'm positive that all four members of Tool are happy with the album. Maynard said in an interview that the 10,000 Days album is the closest thing to their vision, but not quite 100% there(something like that).

youre a dick.
are you serious?
you think tool isnt proud of this album? doesnt consider this an album?
youre retarded.
youre just trying to be a dick. And youre good at it.


Im sure the reason why its not up there is cause it the site looks like shit.
A new badass site was in the works before 10,000 days came out.. the only part that came to us was the intro page.
Their album area is flash... its a lot of trouble opening that old flash file and editing the animation and shit to include another album... especially when youre going to trash your old site pretty soon.
That, or redo it all... and blair sucks at it so it would look like shit anyway.

So the real question is what the hell happened to that new site thats supposed to be done by that john davis guy.

I'm sure it was an old interview during the release right? Like maynard and danny said, when an album first comes out they can't properly reflect on it because they're still so close to it..it really takes time for them to look back on a record. Maybe in hindsight they aren't so satisfied.

or maybe maynard's vision is getting a little blurred with all the buttseks at 65.

I'm pretty sure that the interview was recently. I respect your opinion, but don't trash the album without good reasons for doing so. Personally, I think 10,000 Days is Tool's best album yet. They evolve and get better every CD.

What's this bin count thing anyways?

Their tour specs on the website are pretty unreliable too -- the webmaster claimed they were playing at the "Verizon Wireless Amphitheater" in Boston on July 12th; a non-existant venue.

After I figured that out, I stopped taking anything on the site to heart. A website doesn't/shouldn't define a band anyway, that's how I look at it.

Yeah, especially since most band sites these days are on shitty Myspace.


Has anyone noticed that the rest of the site hasn't been updated in a long time either? Check out the pictures section, I don't think there is anything from even the Lateralus tour in there.

One day they'll update the site. Is it really that big of a deal?

I rarely come in the 10,000 days section. Many of the people that frequent this section will rise to any bait and I prefer more of a challenge. That and you people will take me seriously.

That said, If you are going to call someone ignorant, at least spell it correctly.
