Members late capitalism Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 and, without Tool there would be no Isis. this is undeniable, if you don't hear tool in isis you are deaf. dude this is true of their newer crappier stuff but not at all of the stuff they started out with.

Members RoboPimp Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 Heat seeps in holes Heat seeps in souls Sweat soaked yellow shroud Breathless protection Daggers where the eyes should be Blood running down your cheeks Eyes in black suns direction Feet burning insects stinging Sweat soaked yellow shroud Breathless protection Daggers where the eyes should be Blood running down your cheeks Begin Inject Remove The point The ocean spreads beneath the skin Fluid fills blackened lungs Tar seeps across the eyes Away in the sea of red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hivedestruction Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 Saying "there would be no Isis without Tool" is quite possibly one of the dumbest things I've heard... Ever. I've seen Isis live as far back as when they toured for the Mosquito Control EP with Cave in (while touring for Creative Eclipses). We used to make fun of em for being a Neurosis worship band. Then Celestial came out and completely blew my mind and I haven't looked at music the same since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loobs Posted October 21, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 Saying "there would be no Isis without Tool" is quite possibly one of the dumbest things I've heard... Ever. This, ISIS really don't sound like Tool at all, even their newer stuff. But ISIS owe nothing to Tool, in terms of their existence. 2 hours then I'm leaving!

Members Faldoe Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 I beg to differ. Aaron Harris especially with the last two albums has some Danny Carey stuff going on - not as technical of course. As others said; Yes, Isis has a lot of Neurosis influence. On a tipping scale, Isis would have more Neurosis influence than Tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members late capitalism Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 man, I hope neurosis do something new soon. edit: oh also I blame tool for the awful bass effects usage on the last two ISIS albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hivedestruction Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 edit: oh also I blame tool for the awful bass effects usage on the last two ISIS albums. Ok ok... This I can agree with. edit.. Wait, no I agree with both statements actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw cave in around this same time and I still think it might have been the loudest performance I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P. Wallace Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 The Isis singer whom I don't even care to learn his name is very very far from being as dynamic of a singer as Maynard. The Isis singer almost sucks, but I can't say that cause (the Isis singer) sings better than me! edit:and I almost fell asleep last time I saw Isis.

Members Webinfront_ Posted October 22, 2009 Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 I dunno, I enjoy some stuff off Lateralus and Aenima, but I have trouble getting over how lame Tool's lyrics/general attitude is to me. Plus I hated their last album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I hated their last album Whats lame about it? Its of more substance than a lot of stuff. Of course then there comes a bandwagon of those praising the lyrics. Tool's lyrical content (what some of the metaphors, etc. referenced) turned me on to/helped me find out about a lot of things that interested me.

Members Reauchambeau Posted October 22, 2009 Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 if I gave a {censored} about words I'd get into poetry. Nerosis, ISIS and TOOL are all incredible bands, no need for arguments, fun though. I really don't understand the TOOL hate, not taking to what they do is understandable. but if you call yourself a musician and you can't at least respect what they do, as musicians, then you are a fraud.

Members trebleheinz Posted October 22, 2009 Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 I think there's a lot of Tool hate because a lot of people hate Tool fans. Well, they hate the stereotype of a Tool fan anyway. I like Tool. But some fans take it a little too far, and develop this elitist attitude. Eg, if you don't like Tool, you just don't get it, and you're somehow a knuckle-dragging, brainwashed, conformist consumer. When it comes to music, there are plenty of bands with fans that have a holier-than-thou attitude, but I think this is how a lot of people see Tool fans, fairly or unfairly. Obviously, I don't think all, or even the majority of Tool fans are like this, but I've seen my fair share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hivedestruction Posted October 22, 2009 Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 I should say, I actually love Tool. I just don't agree with the "there would be no Isis without tool" non sense. If anything, I wouldn't be surprised if some Isis rubbed off on tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Loobs Posted October 22, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 It was a good show. All 3 of them are using those Aluminium Electrical Guitars now, the tone was pretty {censored}ing good I have to say through those VHTs. The set was a bit heavy on the new stuff but I guess they are touring to support Wavering Radiant. Even so it all sounded really good. They encored with Altered Course which was fantastic, got a couple of nice t-shirts too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
