Man, that'd rule.

haha! U wish!
I am now convinced that the review is real. And unlike the Andy King-guy, I wont and cant stop myself from masturbate furiously!

This review has been posted on Tool Army (by a member, not Blair or the band) in the message boards now. I think that in the next day or so, blair should see it and hopefully comment on it. The next 48 hours are going to be very interesting.

If this is true and after 5 years between albums it's only 69 minutes I will be very dissappointed. What I don't understand is why would the time of the album go down instead of up??

Blair said they had to cut a segue. That tells me the album is 78 minutes long.

Wow. This is a great find. I guess it fell into your lap. What a gift!
Despite the guy's weird style of writing, you still get the first "real feel" for the album. It sounds like Maynard has his usual highlight vocal moments again. It also sounds like he is trying something different again (the Indian tribal stuff). I am extremely excited about Danny's contributions after reading that. It is hard to get a feel for what Justin contributes. There was obviously no "stand out riff" like the ones from 46&2 and Schism. Or maybe he just didn't mention it? Or maybe I missed it? Adam seems to have alot of moments to shine. The reviewer seems to refer to his riffs from previous albums. I can't wait to hear them.
Great find! Now we know why they haven't released the album name. They haven't named it yet! LOL.

You have to assume the guy was emotionally stoked when he wrote this. He probably zoned out a few times to the music and lost track of the time. He admits once to forgetting about his watch. He also has trouble distinguishing between the beginnings and endings of some songs. It may be longer than 69 minutes.

70 minutes of music is plenty. The average cd only holds 74.

Well Lateralus is 78min 58sec, so that's pretty hard to top! Danny once said something about leaving 2 seconds breathing room etc. Also, in accordance with above posts, I'm sure the guy lost track of some of the times. As a reviewer, your sole purpose isn't to find out exactly how long the songs are as well as the fact he's using a stopwatch - surely he let a few things slide. I'm glad the 'album' that he heard went for at least 69mins plus the 'outro' track. Anyway, I'm sure the album is at least 75 minutes long if the band had to cut a segue etc. Tracks 1, 2, 3/4, 5, 7, 8, 9 & 10 all sound pretty good and similar in layout to tracks 1, 3, 5, , 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12 off Lateralus, as in with a few segues here and there...
Personally, I reckon it would be cool if this album had 11 tracks as mentioned BUT it went for 78min 59sec just so it could be that little bit longer than Lateralus...
Can't wait!

The ONLY thing that gets me about that comment from Danny is the two minutes of silence at the end of Triad.

he should have brought a recording device, disguised as a stopwatch, instead.

or, you know, I said average. They have cds that hold 99 minutes of music, there's a reason I said average.

If you check it out you'll see that those 2+ minutes come BEFORE Faaip De Oaid and don't actually count in the 78:58 of the album. It's just a little recording trick you can do. You'll also notice at the end of Schism/before Parabol that there is a little 2 second gap. It also doesn't add to the total album time yet gives the listener a slight breathing space. That's all...

No, it really does count toward the album time.

Well, it actually counts down on a CD player because it IS between Triad and Faaip, however, those two minutes don't come from nowhere. As an MP3 the song is 8:46, however at 6:46 it goes silent.

I've read the review and just tried to absorb it and figure out how real it was but it appears legit. That said, it's looking like this will be a fantastic album but the reviewer does compare it to Lateralus quite a bit. Maybe he's not too familiar with Tool's older stuff? Blair did say that the album was supposed to be heavier but either way, it will surely kick ass. I kind of figured that the Lustmord remixes were the direction that the new album would move towards. Not in the ambient sense but in the creepy sense. I can't wait!
My main concerns regarding the review is that there are no track names and the album title isn't given. The Lateralus review had the song listing. Also, the Lateralus review was much closer to the release date but that doesn't mean much. The other thing is regarding the short song where Maynard sounds like a native. I hope that's not accurate but if it is then I hope that it sounds a fuck of a lot better than how it does in my head.

You'd think he'd have tidied up the spelling before publishing it.
