All albums now available in 24Bit 96kHz Flac-HD. Was hoping for 24Bit 129kHz.

It appears that Salival is not included in this. Still awesome to see this now:

They did an anniversary / deluxe CD reissue of Opiate a few years back. It came in a cool sleeve signed by the band with a bunch of extra crap included.

It was cool, but not $150.00 cool.

man, it's surprising to see them jump on the fleece-your-fans bandwagon. i was surprised they had a signed version of the show poster in winnipeg that was $100.

That's much cheaper than a signed EV poster if you can get one, right? This signed stuff sells like crazy, so I say go for it. Once you get to a certain level of success, you become an organization with more mouths to feed than just the people on stage. If that sustains jobs, sell sell sell I say.

yeah, I have no issue with it, it just surprises me from certain artists. I felt like they had an "we wouldn't sell out" arrogance to Tool, so selling signed stuff surprised me. 

I considered buying it. I bought a signed weezer poster at the show for my daughter for her first show, so it's not below me, that's for sure.

According to Maynard:

All you know about me is what I've sold you, dumb fuck.
I sold out long before you'd ever even heard my name.
I sold my soul to make a record, dipshit, then you bought one.

All you read and wear or see and hear on TV is a product waiting for your fatass dirty dollar

So, shut up and buy, buy, buy my new record
Buy, buy, buy,
Send more money
Fuck you, buddy.
Fuck you, buddy
Fuck you, buddy
Fuck you, buddy.

Ha!  Love it.

The signed Puscifer poster we got at our show?  Priceless to my husband and me.

I did my morning walk to Lateralus earlier.  Struggling to get to a measly thirty fucking minutes - and hearing the screams of "spiral out, keep gooooing, spiral OUT" helped to push myself.

It's so nice to be able to stream their catalog... long over due.  Bring on the new album!

Gave it a digital streaming spin on the way home from work yesterday. My favorite run is still Bottom - Undertow. Excellent!

The buildup up in Flood is fantastic. You can feel the power in the first part of that song. One of my favorites.

It’s such a fantastic album... front to back.

Yep, my favorite off that album. Slow build and then such a powerful ending with those drums and guitars thundering away.

Album cover tomorrow, according to Adam. Man, they're really slow-playing this.
