first of im going to start by saying a lot of you will laugh this post, some however will understand completely where im coming from.
..enjoy..
Tool announced (3-3-06) that the album title would be 10,000 days. At first many hated the title, but it still got us thinking 'what could it mean.' some thought it was a link to Jesus. I personally am a numbers guy, I recognize synchronicities with numbers all the time. 10,000 days = about 28 years.. just keep that in mind for the following.
The skepticism progressed with the new title, but eventually most came around to truly believe the title would in fact become 10,000 days. While I was laying on my bed today looking around my room I noticed two things came to my consciousness.
1. I have a print of Alex gray’s 'interbeing' and the skulls with the fetus in their head who are then attached to 'the one', i'll call it, are the same skulls found in the leaked album art booklet (which is legit).
2. I also noticed in another tool poster i have the same flower of life image is at the bottom of that very page from the booklet. I know some of you may think that every page of the booklet contains that same image of the flower of life, it's not so. As someone mentioned in that thread it is a 'flip book' style booklet with regards to the flower 'evolving'.
Anyways back to the 28 years thing. Tool being the spiritual yet also marketing genus that they are took what would probably be the peak demographics age for those who are tool fans. I believe this board is a huge skew of data with regards to that, it seems like most people here are on the younger end of the spectrum. Its my belief that the majority of tool fans are in their mid twenties or 'close' to it. Which would mean in the year 2012 the majority of mid 20 something’s would be 28 years of age when 2012 rolls around. This would act as a spark for those 20 something who are inclined to spiritual synchronicities to take this album as a themed album related to the concepts of 2012.
Now for the slight leap. I think tool is just priming us and will change the album title and track names to fit a 2012 theme better.
Commence laughing. I will keep a link to this in my signature for future ass kissery. ..and save it on hard disk :) incase a mod deletes it and i'll post it later going SEE.

Yea, i'm sure we can all pretty much say that the title is "10,000 Days" because if you just look around, the title is everywhere, poster, magazines, stores, online stores, everywhere.

It is perfectly feasible for an album to change its name before its release. They could technically do it at any time, with little effect to the band other than a few annoyed people.
I do have a feeling that the title is true though. Like a cist, its grown on me.

Now, I didn't even read your post, but I saw this part in a quote down the page. I'll save a couple things that have overly convinced me that 10,000 Days IS the real title. I honestly don't care what it is, but it's 10,000 Days.

..and if its not?
how can you guys be so sure, has tool ever tricked us before? nahh, not ever right? Do you have the CD in your hands? I thought not. Has tool ever gone to such extremes to prevent an album leak? hm? Why not make it fun for a few right.
I know you guys are skeptics, but in a few weeks we will know for sure.

It's not too exciting as of right now either, considering the title is 10,000 Days.

On seconds thought Carny, I think you're actually right! Man, you totally called their bluff dude. When the radio stations go to recieve Vicarious off of the secure server, it's going to be in a .rar file with a .txt that says
"Hey guys,
The album's name and tracklisting are totally fake! LOL
The real title of this song is "XXXtra Large Pancake", for real. No lies this time! We wouldn't lie to you, our beloved radio friends, just our fans who provide us with money... Two weeks remaining until the album drops nontheless! What losers! Heh.
Enjoy!

Took some balls to drop a post like that in this kind of climate. I'm not sure I agree with 10,000 Days not being the title, but I fucking like your idea about 2012. I'm 22 now, so in 2012 I will be roughly 28. I'm not sure how much water it holds, but fuck it, I'm quite fond of 2012 theories of all stripes. Nice thinking.

1. I have a print of Alex gray’s 'interbeing' and the skulls with the fetus in their head who are then attached to 'the one', i'll call it, are the same skulls found in the leaked album art booklet (which is legit).
2. I also noticed in another tool poster i have the same flower of life image is at the bottom of that very page from the booklet. I know some of you may think that every page of the booklet contains that same image of the flower of life, it's not so. As someone mentioned in that thread it is a 'flip book' style booklet with regards to the flower 'evolving'.
Anyways back to the 28 years thing. Tool being the spiritual yet also marketing genus that they are took what would probably be the peak demographics age for those who are tool fans. I believe this board is a huge skew of data with regards to that, it seems like most people here are on the younger end of the spectrum. Its my belief that the majority of tool fans are in their mid twenties or 'close' to it. Which would mean in the year 2012 the majority of mid 20 something’s would be 28 years of age when 2012 rolls around. This would act as a spark for those 20 something who are inclined to spiritual synchronicities to take this album as a themed album related to the concepts of 2012.
Now for the slight leap. I think tool is just priming us and will change the album title and track names to fit a 2012 theme better.

and all this 10,000 day hoax thinking stems from what? Oh right, your problem with the fact that 10,000 days is the title of the album. For some retarded reason you don't like the title, why? Is it not a made up word? You know the concept of the album and feel it doesnt correlate with feel of the album? The title doesnt compare with Link Park's album name?
What is your god damn malfunction?!

i didnt laugh
your theory is nice and all...but it doesnt do much to counteract all of the "10,000 days themed" adverts and promos going around . your evidence isnt compelling at all: tool fans are too young to have their album titled "10,000 days"? do you really think tool is considering the average age of their audience when naming an album...i think not.
ive got nothing against you or your post it doesnt make me believe the album will be titled something other than "10,000 days" and until some real info to the contrary from the band comes to the surface, 10,000 days is what i believe.

Yeah. I will not buy 10000 Days as the title until the album is in my hands with that title on it. I'm not sure I like the theory (what's with the 2012 stuff?) but I agree they are fucking with us, big time.
Self-titled album, bitches.

I dont understand where your arguement that the title is fake is. Its fake because their peak demographic would be 10000 days old in 2012??????? what?????

hmm good point. I was stoned out of my mind while i wrote that. After thinking about where i was and what i thought while in that place and where I am now (sober) I actually think the 10,000 day title fits alot better due to what i mentioned above. ..im still not sure about the song titles though.. :D I still think those might be fake, but im pretty convinced now that 10,000 days is the real title. It fits pretty well. I also think the new album will be a 2012 themed album.

I have to admit that I was one of the holdouts for a while -- i really didn't think that TOOL would go with a title like 10,000 Days. This was espescially true when the new TOOL logo really looked like it said FOOL.
However, after hearing the title in the context of the leaked lyrics ("10000 Days in the fire is long enough"), I've become a believer. The thing that really got me is all of the promotional material that is out there, namely the "4 Days to Vicarious" site that Sony did. Doing a Flash site of that quality is not cheap and I seriously doubt Sony would foot a bill like that just for a hoax.
I still don't like some of the titles (Lost Keys, Rosetta Stoned) but I haven't heard them yet.
At this point, it would be really expensive to change the title of the record and have to update all of the promotional material that's been printed, so that leads me to believe that the tracklisting and album name are legit.
CONSPIRACY THEORIST NOTE:
All of the above operates on the assumption that actual promotional material has been created. However, there have been no confirmed reports of anyone actually seeing a REAL poster or a REAL flyer anywhere. Yes, we have scans and photos, but those could easily be generated digitally and then circulated if the band had a mind to. Even the Sony site, while expensive, could theoretically be faked since it is all digital and replacing digital stuff is a lot easier than replacing real tangible printed materials.
The point of this note is that TOOL could be making an allusion to the political climate in the U.S. (since they've stated in interviews that this album is political). By that, I mean that the Bush administration has often fabricated stories and 'evidence' to justify its desires to do certain things (such as the domestic wiretapping and the war in Iraq). Most Americans believed Bush at the time simply because Bush said 'i'm telling the truth, so trust me..." TOOL has effectively done the same thing by making Blair and the TOOLBand site our only 'official' source of information.
:END CONSPIRACY THEORIST NOTE
I'm not by any means stating that this conspiracy theory is correct, but I am playing devil's advocate and trying to show an alternative way of looking at things.

Tool announced (3-3-06) that the album title would be 10,000 days. At first many hated the title, but it still got us thinking 'what could it mean.' some thought it was a link to Jesus. I personally am a numbers guy, I recognize synchronicities with numbers all the time. 10,000 days = about 28 years.. just keep that in mind for the following.
The skepticism progressed with the new title, but eventually most came around to truly believe the title would in fact become 10,000 days. While I was laying on my bed today looking around my room I noticed two things came to my consciousness.
1. I have a print of Alex gray’s 'interbeing' and the skulls with the fetus in their head who are then attached to 'the one', i'll call it, are the same skulls found in the leaked album art booklet (which is legit).
2. I also noticed in another tool poster i have the same flower of life image is at the bottom of that very page from the booklet. I know some of you may think that every page of the booklet contains that same image of the flower of life, it's not so. As someone mentioned in that thread it is a 'flip book' style booklet with regards to the flower 'evolving'.

I think it's probably 10,000 Days. But i thought of the 2012 theme too. But isn't that also about the same time as Saturn's orbit?
