You know, the tracks DO sync up, but I wouldn't put it past those guys to make a joke out of it and start bs-ing crap to get the fans to try to do something that won't work....Hell I'd do it  Maynard has a great sense of humor, possibly attributed to his friendship with Bill Hicks. A gag that he tried *that Bill did first* was coming onstage and saying he lost a contact lens somewhere in the audience, making EVERYONE look down to find it. Plus, he was *for a short time* with Green Jelly *at least on Three Little Pigs)

Does anyone else here suspect that these aren't the only tracks on this album that do this? I'd add some numbers but I don't have enough time....

^ is this a cunning attempt at making us cut the album to pieces so we have to buy a new copy?

Whether this is a load of old guff or not,I have absolutely no idea why someone would use this thread just to denigrate Tool and their fans.
If you cant write anything constructive dont bother writing anything.
You know who you are...
This isnt a Tool appreciation thread,so butt out!
I also reiterate what Easy says about file-sharing. Keep it off the forum,what you do in private is not our concern.

oh dear we are grumpy today........i really can't understand what you mean, Tony!!! i don't know anybody who would DARE poke a stick at one of PA's most sacred cows.....i'm sure some of the guys are only just having a bit of fun!!  i liked the idea of running three tracks together, though, i haven't any tool albums so i tried it with three tracks off three different status quo lp's - and by jingo it works! bit of a racket,though!

I tried it with Viginti Tres/Wings Pt. 2 layed on top of Wings Pt. 1, and the ending for both Wings parts sounds eerie layered over each other. The music and lyrics are slightly at different tempos or just off a tiny bit, and it feels like they cross and fall apart from each other, much like looking through the stereoscopic lenses. VERY weird...

Now I know why these songs by themselves suck!

The reason why they're separated IMNSHO is because they're pretentious enough to do it.

Now, I'm just trying this:
I notcied there is the same segment of music (the very brief heavy segment with triplets, if that makes sense) in each part of Wings, and they both occur about two minutes before the end of both tracks. So I'm thinking the sync actualyl starts with Viginti Tres, and ends with Wings Pt. 1. I'm about 3 minutes into it right now, and I think it's much better than the original suggestion.
Edit: After listening to this once through, I think it works. The heavy part and the vocal melodies toward the end sync. I don't think on my first time I got it perfectly, but it made enough sense to me. Try it out! |
I read on another site that it does actually start with Viginti Tres. I think I'm gonna try it that way, even though I already did it with Part 1 first and it seemed to work. Hey, maybe it will work both ways.

Holy crap, I got it as one track, and wow this is sick. I wish I could upload it online for everyone to have but I think it's illegal.
If you want info on how to make it, hit me up on AIM.

It seems like the song was intended to be synchronized in either order of the 2 songs ... but it may fit better with the virgini Tres put first. So, the song sounds even better now!
Yeah ... It seems like I gave Tool a few dozen bucks with this little thread lol. Definitively get this album. I am not a tool fanboy at all, I am just impressed at the artistic beauty it holds.

As if the reviews didn't made me want to buy the cd, now It has a big secret behind the fillers to make things better! Friday will be the day I'll buy the album. I can't control the hype of other people. It's contagious!
