So apparently this album isn't being released in Canada until May 23rd (it came out in the U.S. on April 18th). But I couldn't wait that long, so I ordered it from Amazon last week and it just arrived today. No surprise, it's another killer album from one of the most consistent rock bands working today. These guys can do no wrong in my opinion. Over the course of one short year, they've become one of my top 5 favorite bands. I can't get enough!

Like any great band, the DBTs are evolving, and the new disc is a bit of a departure for them. It's more of a collection of unrelated stories, as opposed to the "concept album" feel of their previous efforts. So far there's only one song I haven't warmed up to yet (A World of Hurt), but the rest of the album kicks just as much ass as anything else they've done. Man, what a great year for new music so far. New Pearl Jam, new Drive-By Truckers, new Sam Roberts, new Ben Harper, and hopefully some new Hip!

I happen to have 6 tickets for the Fort York Concert on June 24th, and I now have a problem in that I have a family wedding that day.

First choice would be to swap tickets for the Friday night concert if anybody is interested!

I'm not interested in selling them yet.

There is a great site on the net for concert posters called expreso beans.
Here is a link for all the Hip Posters they have in their database
http://www.expressobeans.com/search.php?band=1106

There are also a couple showing up for the sasquatch Festival
http://www.expressobeans.com/search.php?...=sasquatch No Hip yet but some of the prints look pretty sick.

Just thought people would like to see.

Well, the long anticipated release is finally here!!
I picked up the cd this morning (although i did have it much earlier- sorry, I couldn't resist it). At first only a few songs stuck right away, which for me is untypical with Tool, I'm usually instaneously mesmerized by their all-round talent. This cd was different however. Vicarious, Wings For Marie/ 10, 000 Days (a 17 minute epic about dealing with the loss of Maynards mother - if you didn't know already) and Right In Two were instant ear-tinglers. Now after a few listens, the cd is exactly what I had hoped for.

Although there is a change in lyrical direction from Maynard, it works out very well. He's no longer telling his listeners to "spiral out" and "push the envelope, watch it bend"...this time he's more in your face and direct. Vicarious is a prefect example.

The band has once again kept up with the completely original cd packaging style. Artwork from both Alex Grey and Adam Jones collaborates into something truly amazing. You'll see what i mean when you buy the cd.

I would love to hear what other people on this board think of the new piece.

Joe.

PS- I'll be at the Hummingbird Show in 2 weeks- anyone else going?
