okay. i'm feeling like an idiot. i have never downloaded any music EVER off the net. but i want this song . can someone tell me in very simple language how i do it.
don't tell me just to click on the link and then download cause obviously i tried that. it told me i did not have permission. HELP ME!!!!!!!

It isn't bad, but it really isn't a leap ahead or anything. And uh the lyrics kind of suck, but I won't hold that against them.

pjamdude69 · April 2006

Fucking awesome.. Thanks for the link.. May 2nd indeed is gonna be a great fucking day to head to Best Buy.. Hmmm, which one do I listen to first? Might have to flip a coin on that one..

catefrances · April 2006

i have no patience that's what the problem is. though i did go over to the foos site and click on a link there.
anyhoo i'm listening to it now for about the tenth time in a row. this time on headphones cause that's how usually listen to TOOL. in the dark, lying on my bed, floating away.
i like this song. the lyrics do kinda suck but hey after 5 years i'm prepared to give them some leeway.
is that la la las i hear?
i'm just so gaga for adam jones guitar. and that danny carey drumming we love so much.

I wonder how many radio stations will cut out during the lull around the 5 minute mark instead of playing the full version of the song.

Anyway, I really dig it. I can't remember a prior Tool song to this one where I knew exactly what the lyrics were about without having to think too much about it.

Woah, fucking hell, this song is wicked! Really catchy, but complex at the same time, if this is a taste of things to come the album is gonna be awesome. I definitely hear a mixture of Lateralus and Aenima in the music which is cool, and the lyrics sound just fine to me.

PearlJamaholic · April 2006

booooooooring. i heard this before. even though i didnt care much for lateralus at least it was a new sound from tool. i dont care how technical or complex a song is. its either good or its not. and this one is not. i wont be going nuts for any new yngwie either. talent doesnt always equal good music and tool is proving that. well good thing i can just download this until i find it in a used bin. cause tool wont be seeing any of my money if the rest of the album sounds like this.

I love Tool as much as the next guy, but why are people talkin so highly of the song. Itsa good song, a different sound, but they repeat themselves too many times.

The intro is a mix of Schism and the Patient.

The heavy part is basically a the heavy part in Schism kinda rearranged.

I hear alotta Grudge in the rest of the song.

A Lateralus 2 isnt necessarily a bad thing.

The Kabir review makes me think the rest of the album is gonna be sorta the same as Vicarious with revisiting themes from older album.

What happened to, "push the envelope"?

The song is growin on me, but I hope they dont steal from their older albums, so liberally, on the rest of 10,000 Days.

What sound do you want to hear?

Somethin that doesnt sound so much like their last album. That is/was one of Tool's strengths. None of their previous albums are as repetetive as this one song is.

But then there is also a chance that you don't like it. I know that bands have to improve themselves to try some new sounds, but it's always difficult to do something different that they never did in the past.

Thatsa pretty lame excuse. They really shouldnt let the fact that people might not like it, change their music.

For a group of professional musicians with the chops that Tool collectively have, it shouldnt be difficult to not repeat themselves.

Perhaps look at it this way, if it had been on Lateralus would you have skipped the song? I know the song does bare some similarities to Schism, but not the whole song, and musically speaking it is an impressive song. I guess some people have exceptionally high expectations.

I wish Metallica made a Master of Puppets II, but they didn't and they made the Loads.

I do have high expectations, and rightfully so. This is the first Tool release I have been a hardcore fan for and I know it will be special. I was just expecting somethin different, since thats what they have given us the other 4 times.

First listen, was kinda bleh. I played a few other songs then played Vicarious again. It took a few listen to really get it, but when I did I was still thinking, this shoulda been on Lateralus. They have never done that before, imo. The songs on each album are almost exclusive to that album.

Yeah...I'm with the other dude. I was hoping for something a little different. I like how TOOL evolved from Opiate to Lateralus...now it sorta sounds like they stalled. I just want them to do some more innovative and crazy shit. I'm sure they have some on the album and I'm betting they knew this was a single from the get go.
