Rosetta Stoned is a damn masterpiece. That was one of the highlights of each of the 3 times I saw them on the last tour. I couldn't sit down for that song even if I wanted to. God damn. Shit the bed.
"Lost Keys (Blame Hoffman)" and into "Rosetta Stoned" is so awesome. I've started listening to 10,000 Days a lot more lately.
I listened to it a ton when it came out. It hasn't aged quite as well, but I still really like about everything on there. I was having a discussion with a buddy saturday night about it. We agreed that it doesn't stand up to their other albums very well. My opinion may be a bit different if I didn't know how to play so many of the tunes off of Aenima and Lateralus. There's several instances of them rehashing riffs and patterns from those 2 albums on 10k Days. Still really good tunes, but it's always bugged me a bit.
Very true. I can lay down bass to a couple of tracks so I totally see what you mean.

I just can't get in to that song for anything. It's probably my least favorite Tool song not counting some of the obvious filler tracks. I skip it when I listen to the CD and I don't even have it on my iPod. The music may be great but I just can't get past the spoken-word, heavy-effects vocals and the, IMO, ridiculous lyrics.

If you have ever taken good acid before, you will enjoy Rosetta Stoned more.

It's actually about a guy using dmt, which is the same stuff EV is singin about in Severed Hand. Always thought it was kinda funny that there was 2 songs from 2 of my favorite bands about it, released on the same day.
I loved Wing/10k Days at first, but it got kinda boring quick. Hardly sounds like Tool to me.
Nothing that includes Danny Carey could possibly be boring. Ever.
That guy is a freakin beast!
Sometimes we forget (myself included) that not every band changes their setlist every night. Bands that try to, dont switch it up enough (MMJ) and bands that dont, well, you learn to live with it and enjoy the 90 minutes you get every few years, and hope you can catch them a few times before they call it quits.
Tool is one of my favorite bands, and Aenema is one of the albums that would be coming with me to a deserted island. That considered, I'll be at Mohegan Sun

To each their own, of course. Lost Keys / Rosetta Stoned is great story telling in my opinion. Even though I've always thought the story was pretty similar to Comfortably Numb.
But I do agree that Wings 1 and 2 are insanely good as well, same with Right in Two. Those all have just amazing lyrics.
I also agree that 10,000 Days as a whole does have some rehashed riffs to it, I can't deny that, but I still love it. It's very underrated in my opinion. It stayed in my cd player for almost 3 months strait when it came out which meant it took me a while to get to the PJ album that came out the same day.
But I think if people don't like 10,000 Days then chances may be they don't like the next Tool album. I think that style is more suited for Maynard's voice now so I think we should expect more stuff like that I the future.

I just wanted to add that his voice is still phenomenal live. Sounded fantastic over the summer.
I like Tool. I have liked them since Undertow came out in 93. Have all their albums. But they are one of those bands that I have to be in a certain mood to listen to them. Very talented and Adam is an amazing artist and grapic designer. The 10,000 days artwork still blows my mind to this day. I am fine with not seeing them live. Definately not a band I could listen to everyday.
I totally agree

DMT is the major component of an Ayahuasca brew. When you're using it with an MAOI, you're tripping on DMT.
sarcasm. I always liked APC better than Tool but was a bit turned off my the cover album. Making money off of other people's shit, i dont like that much. If they donated the proceeds to something, like PJ did with last kiss, I am not aware of it.

I'll 2nd that :shock: :shock: even though Blair had hinted at Ticks a few weeks ago. Surely be one of the every other night tunes, unless Maynard found the fountain of youth. Hooker w/a Penis is so fuckin awesome too and Pushit(studio) may be my absolute favorite of theirs.
sidenote...the new Puscifer album is really great. Had the lowest expectations, but it's really fantastic.
That setlist is better than I was expecting, still not enough to get me to go to a show this time around. Holding out for new stuff until I go see them again.
I dunno if they're still doin all the synth interludes, but if they cut those out I wouldn't complain too hard about 90 minutes. They kinda blow, all sound similar and they don't necessarily better the music. They could play longer for sure, but Danny Carey's got a helluvalot goin on back there. I would think Maynard has somethin to do with it too.
I can get down with that.
Open with Hooker w/ a Penis - thats a strange song to open with, no??
