Yep, I'll be buying this. Thats a testament to how awesome Tool is. I'm shocked that many of you only liked 2 or 3 of their songs o_O.
I'm not so shocked. Though their recent CD was a lot more popular, there were still lots of funky song on there that I can see a lot of people not liking them.

I'll be checking it out for sure.

You killed it and you're not really funny. Hahaha not.

Well anyways I suppose i'll get this album when it gets cheaper or get it off some other source.
Hmm. I killed it eh? So first off, what did I kill? Second, where in my post do I say I'm trying to be funny? Oh, oh that's right, I'm not trying to be funny. How ironic it is that I was showing you sarcasm. Please, if you think I'm that retarded as to not know that 10,000 fists is Disturbed's latest album you shouldn't jump the gun so quick. Why might you ask? Because i said "I have 10,000 fists does that count?"

Now, if I have 10,000 fists, which I do, then correct me if I'm wrong: Shouldn't I already know the name of the band? Of course I would.

Anywho: Tool = awsome, so I'll be getting it as soon as I have the money. I'm honestly with Zeo on this, I am shocked that most only like a few of their songs, I think they're great and quite unique.

This new album has been compared to a lot of epic albums. I have yet to hear it, and I don't have my hopes too high, but after Lateralus and the amount of great reviews I've heard, I expect nothing but good things.

I understand why some don't like Tool, but I think it is because they don't quite understand what makes them so good. I don't mean, "they don't get all that cryptic ****," I'm just saying that they do a lot of neat things that you wouldn't notice if you didn't pay attentioned.

The little stuff they do with their songs is brilliant, and I think the effort and talent they display can be pass over sometimes. Danny Carey is argueablly the best drummed in the last 15 years, and apperantly takes it to a new level on this album. I'm psyched.

The new single, Vicarious, is out soon. April 17th.

Speaking of Tool, what are some good songs that they sing other than "Sober"? I like the band, but i dont know any other songs that are worth my bandwidth.

Stinkfist, Push it, Lateralus, Opiate, Schism, Aenima, 46 and 2, Triad (I like it at least), The Grudge, and Sweat. Those are my top 10.

And Eulogy.

I find it awesome. Tool and some of the older Metallica albums were the first I've bought, and I've never quite gotten used to songs less than 6 minutes long :(

I'm with Deman. One of the reasons I love Tool is because the songs are so damn long.

Lets talk about how awesome the new single, Vicarious, is.

That song crushes children and rapes women - that's with the drumming, only. Everything all added up can create genocide and rape every insect.

It sounds more like an intro than an actual song. Sounded pretty good. Not awesome, but still good.

You're listening to the 7 minute, leaked, single, right? The whole thing is out and can be gotten. I won't post the link, because that'd be bad - but the song is released and is on the web.

EYE ON THE TV
CAUSE TRAGEDY THRILLS ME
WHATEVER FLAVOR
IT HAPPENS TO BE
LIKE:
KILLED BY THE HUSBAND
DROWNED BY THE OCEAN
SHOT BY HIS OWN SON
HE USED A POISON IN HIS TEA
THEN KISSED YOU GOODBYE
IT'S MY KIND OF SORRY
IT'S NO FUN UNTIL SOMEONE DIES.

DON'T LOOK AT ME
LIKE I AM A MONSTER
FROWN OUT YOUR ONE FACE
BUT WITH THE OTHER
STARE LIKE A JUNKIE
INTO THE TV
STARE LIKE A ZOMBIE
WHILE THE MOTHER
HOLDS HER CHILD
WATCHES HIM DIE
HANDS TO THE SKY
CRYING...
WHY OH WHY

CAUSE I NEED TO WATCH THINGS DIE
FROM A DISTANCE
VICARIOUSLY
I LIVE, WHILE THE WHOLE WORLD DIES
YOU ALL NEED IT TOO,
DON'T LIE

WHY CAN'T WE JUST ADMIT IT?
WHY CAN'T WE JUST ADMIT IT?

WE WON'T GIVE PAUSE UNTIL THE BLOOD IS FLOWING
NEITHER THE BRAVE, NOR THE BOLD
THE WRITERS, SO THE STORY'S TOLD
WE WON'T GIVE PAUSE UNTIL THE BLOOD IS FLOWING

I NEED TO WATCH THINGS DIE
FROM A GOOD SAFE DISTNACE
VICARIOUSLY,
I LIVE WHILE THE WHOLE WORLD DIES
YOU ALL FEEL THE SAME SO...

WHY CAN'T WE JUST ADMIT IT?

BLOOD LIKE THE RAIN FALLING DOWN
DROWN THE GRAVE AND GROUND

PART VAMPIRE
PART WARRIOR
CARNIVORE
AND VOYEUR
STILL HAVE THE TRANSMITTER
SINK TO THE DEATH RATTLE

LALALALALALALALALA LIE (TIMES 4)

CREDULOUS AT BEST
YOUR DESIRE TO BELIEVE IN
ANGELS IN THE HEARTS OF MEN
PULL YOUR HEAD ON OUT
YOUR HEAD
PLEASE AND GIVE A LISTEN
SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SAY IT ALL AGAIN

THE UNIVERSE IS HOSTILE
SO IMPERSONAL
DEVOUR TO SURVIVE
SO IT IS
SO IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN

WE ALL FEED
ON TRAGEDY..
IT'S LIKE BLOOD TO A VAMPIRE

VICARIOUSLY
I,
LIVE WHILE THE WHOLE WORLD DIES
MUCH BETTER YOU THAN I

Ah, I must have the pre-leak <_<. Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT: Just listened to it, and I pretty much have the same opinion as before. The end was nice, though.
EDIT #2: I listened to it a few more times, and It's beginning to grow on me.

THE ALBUM HAS BEEN LEAKED

It RULES... it just kicks so much ass. Better than Lateralus.

It's pretty good. I'll have to listen to them several times before I give my final opinion.
