It's just 30 seconds of buildup, nothing even happens. Boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Filter500 Posted April 14, 2006 Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 I'm not surprised it sounds like a Lateralus spinoff in style as I got that impression from a long album review with descriptions of how the songs sounded a while back. This sort of thing builds and bludgeons and explores but never really hooks me and there's an edge that's missing. I think that's what Lateralus is missing for me. I'm up for more of a riffy, straight-ahead sound. I prefer songs like Stinkfist or Hush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members martinrr Posted April 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 From what i've heard the album is going to be a lot more rockish and less ambient tool noises, which sounds good to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they've said, but from what I've read the sounds described are the usual textural explorations with the heavy parts being heavier.

Members Firegoat Posted April 14, 2006 Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 I hope they've improved production since Lateralus as I feel it really lacked. The quiet parts were not audible (unless maybe with headphones in a silent room) and then the loud parts were too loud. I'd constantly be turning the volume up and down....However, Tool is Tool and I really don't think anyone would want them to change....too much at least.

Dingdingding we have a winner! Here you go lucky fella, have a bitchslap.Lateralus' production was awesome because of those dynamics - instead of the white noise, brickwall limited, compressed-to-the-point-of-banality audio garbage.I bet you love mainstream radio compression?

I bet you love mainstream radio compression? Actually, no I don't love mainstream radio compression. Lateralus was just isn't practical to listen to anywhere except for a sound-proof studio, where of course it's easy to think these production tatics may work. Little do they know that it's worthless in 90% of the places consumers will listen to the CD. Dynamics are good but it was a bit extreme on Lateralus.Tool really needs to look to their earlier works for good production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
