I remember seeing during that "my excellent playlist for today" thread a couple weeks ago that Tool came up more than once. Call it thinking man's metal or prog-rock or whatever, but these guys rule. Maynard makes Henry Rollins or Glenn Danzig look like women. On tour this summer with King Crimson even. Outstanding! Idm content- I picked up the Incunabula vinyl re-release the other day. On my cd I noticed a small technical glitch (drop-out in one of the channels, not a glaring thing but I always notice it) about 6:30 of Bike (song 2) and expected it to be fixed. But no. It's still there. I wonder if they even noticed it. Kris, any thoughts? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Outstanding!

The irony in this is that quite often on their tour for Aenima, Maynard dressed like a woman. If I may be frank, he had a nice set of tits. IDM content: New Squarepusher: Hated Big Loada.... Big Loada shit (contrary to the loada some people on this list excrete when listening), but Go Plastic is damn sweet. Overall as an album, it moves into each piece appropriately and never bores the listener. The randomness isn't too random so as to lack structure, and it's never so structured so as to get cliched. I like. -mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
