Lothlorien said:i know this. i know maynard took time to be with a perfect circle and so on. but when you are a fan of a band like tool, a band that side projects or not take 4-5 years in between albums, u expect that they have some good shit ready to go when they begin entering the studio or demoing out their material.
Yeah, they took forever to release Lateralus and it turned out to be a masterpiece so I expected something even better with 10K. Too bad this time they didn't deliver.Lothlorien said:i know this. i know maynard took time to be with a perfect circle and so on. but when you are a fan of a band like tool, a band that side projects or not take 4-5 years in between albums, u expect that they have some good shit ready to go when they begin entering the studio or demoing out their material.

Stimuli said:I always felt the drums on GR sounded pretty lifeless and flat (despite the awesome playing of course... just the tone)

Lothlorien said:This has been my biggest flaw with GR!!!! for some reason i just hate the sound of the drums. albums like deliverance and still life have this big atmospheric sound to the drums. the drums on GR sound like they were played in a little closet. just my opinion but if "das vunderkid" gives the drums that sound on the next album then i dont think he's worth the vote.
...I can see that some people are not impressed by the drum sound on that album, and to be honest i don't like it either. It was a compromise (my will against what the band thought they wanted), and on top of that pretty poor mastering.
