tool: 10,000 days
well it was with awesome surprise that i found out a new tool album was to be released today. tool (or maynard\'s side project, a perfect circle) is the only band that i can still get into. trance has totally changed what i want to hear in a song, thus though my old faves are still old faves, i dont like anything new thats released.
that said, i was lusting over yesteryear and a decent metal sound all week as i anticipated this release.
first thing i noticed was it sounds really reminiscent of their last album, lateralus. which isnt a bad thing, however i still much prefer AEnema. maynard\'s vocals in aenema just seem a bit more powerful & (importantly) melodic. anywayz, the overall sound is still very toolish and if you liked lateralus id be surprised if you didnt like this. on first listen there seemed to be lots and lots of music with sparce vocals, which i would prefer the opposite way round, as maynard is probably my all-time fave singer. still, the music is still pretty cool, if not as \"pretty\" as i would like. those wickedly sexy tool bass lines make a welcome return, and i still believe tool have some of the best sounding dark yet melodic thumping bass sounds out of any band ive heard.
tool have a real knack for building a track EDM style, which i realised recently ive always been addicted to. and maynard can go from 0-100 mph in a split second.
stand out tracks for me thus far are \"right in two\" & \"intension\". softer melodic metal for the win its a bit tough at work to get a full listen with all its glory (and volume) however. i expect this to be in the CD drive for a while as i give it listen after listen until i decide exactly how good i think it is.
still, even at this early stage i can say its more interesting and enjoyable than any non EDM ive heard in years. if youre a tool fan rush out and buy this puppy, mp3s are for selfish arseholes.
3.5 screwdrivers out of 5.
