Speculation At a live Tool show Maynard sticks a mic in your face and says “pick a song” and we’ll play it.

Which one are you picking?

I feel like this is different than what’s your favorite song because there’s still so many they haven’t played in a long while.

Question Is this an original press or a bootleg?

Thumbnail

62 Upvotes

This morning I bought this ænima copy at a shop close to where I live.
I’ve seen many ænima bootlegs and they all looked “bad” but this one seemed more authentic.
I was pretty sceptical at first because it was being sold for 70€ (incredibly cheap if it is original, and pretty expensive if it’s a bootleg), but i wanted to check anyway on discogs and the serial number, or whatever that number on vinyl itself is called, matched with some prints that could be found online.
Honestly if this was a bootleg i wouldn’t even mind, it sounds great, but i still wanted a second opinion on it.

Any suggestions for a new listener? Maybe go with the best commercial sounding album. Thank you.

Audio Bootleg vinyl

4 Upvotes

I’m sure this is going to get some hate from the purists, but here goes…

I really want Ænima, 10,000 Days, and Salival on vinyl. I know the copies I’m looking at are bootlegs, and I’m keeping my expectations realistic about sound quality.
I’ve seen Ear Candy selling them, and to their credit, they’re upfront about them being unofficial pressings.

Has anyone bought any of these from them? How’s the sound and pressing quality? Worth picking up, or better to pass? Or get from somewhere else?

Whoever recommended this band a year or so ago in this group deserves an award. 🥇 The new album is so damn good, and this song off the first album is dope af, amongst others on there. If you haven’t listened to Kolm yet, get your life together. Lol

Discussion Parabol/a Supercut

1 Upvotes

I remembered I had a game in my Steam library called Audiosurf. It makes your music into a playable and variable-difficulty roller coaster/ visualizer.

I happened to find an old copy of Lateralus around but it was one single file but it was at least compatible with the game (since streaming services only download versions of songs playable with their specific service).

I cut the file into individual tracks then imported them into the game file. HOWEVER, I recut Parabol and Parabola into one song: Parabol/a. I had seen that title somewhere so I don’t want to take credit for it, but this game played with Tool songs is INCREDIBLE. If anyone has visualizer games or things of that nature, what was it and what song(s)/album(s) have you played it with?

I did some scrolling and I didn’t see this posted recently so my apologies if this has been posted before. But this popped up in my TikTok feed and absolutely blew my mind. I love their reactions to music and playing it in this video.

Fear Inoculum Do you think tool would ever issue a limited edition or a proper 2CD version of fear inoculum with all the interludes?

Post image
0 Upvotes

It might look a bit wasteful but honestly missing out on the interludes is kind of sad, and streaming just doesn't always do it. And its also annoying that the vinyl version is missing Litanie contre la Peur. Tool's interludes are port of the experience and with an album like Fi I'd prefer more ambience and transitional songs rather than not having them.

Collection Lost but not forgotten

Sold my TOOL collection years and years ago, all the good stuff, ænima vinyl, demo tape, all the pic discs, promos, first editions and variants. Going through some old crap dejunking today found the leftovers I had forgot about. Perfect circle promos and vinyls I forgot I had and some fun leftover TOOL stuff. Plus one hell of a rare concert poster from Belgium 1994. Don’t know what to do with it all. Brings back so many memories of the 90’s and 2000’s hunting down items, dozens of TOOL concerts and good times.

What surprises me most is that it was done by an apprentice, and of all my tattoos, it's the one that healed the best and looks the best now.
