Beautiful, but it's quite different from Panopticon and you mention that in the sound description; I don't understand the comparison. However, Beautiful might be the first album of a new genre with Post in front. (But in the "more violent" tracks, they take a beating to the head from Mister Turner, eh.)

Heroin? And where do I talk about Heroin? Where did I say it was just a hallucinated junkie? Ah, but you're still too far behind to understand, like those who back then didn't appreciate this record.

it's rock for drunkenness, when you're too drunk to understand the rhythmic sections.

But I appreciate them... just like I appreciate Kyuss, but from there to say "the best rock n roll album in history" is where the laughter starts for the next 20 years.

PS I really can’t stand Maynard, just so you know. Because rereading the post I just wrote, it might seem like I like him, but he’s a huge asshole, and I want to emphasize that. I love Tool, but if he ended up in a wheelchair, I’d get a good laugh out of it.

It was an April Fool's... MAYNARD CATHOLIC? ah aha ha ah aha ha ha aha ... If he did something like that, Adam would crucify him in the public square, then he’d call all the friends from Ipecac, then the Meshuggah and all sorts of other folks, they would douse him in gasoline and dance under his Flaming corpse. Gabry! Are you falling for the little pranks? (Tièh tièh tièh!) [Anyway, it was a joke, two days later they wrote it somewhere, but I have my reliable informants ;) ]

I was talking about emmtivì and global trade, not about the underground circuit. They are the ATDI, not the THUMB. It's a super famous group that has been oversold, so we can also talk about "impact on the kid," but I’m not talking about the 15-year-old brother or son of the enthusiast, I mean the teenager who’s lost in between Gemelli Diversi and Fargetta. Mars and ATDI were played on the RADIO... which the Maudlin Of The Well have never experienced. Anyway, I was also talking about my personal tastes... and I was being a pain in your ass. What’s up, can’t I be a pain anymore? ;)... it’s just that you’re in love with Iggy and it blinds you, you can’t see anything else when Iggy’s around. Also, a lot of my metalhead friends have spat on the Mars Volta, but they don’t even have half an hour of recorded stuff at home when it comes to Prog-Psych. Plus, I don’t understand the Mars Volta - ATDI comparison; it would be like if a fan of Tomahawk compared them to Lovage or if a Goatsnakkian made comparisons between Goat and Sunn O))) or like when people say Tool vs APC, they're two completely different projects and I don’t see the point in comparing them, and furthermore, it doesn’t seem real that I can annoy you, hi hi hi... take that.

However, the ATDI emerged at a time when everything was very ""SGRRRRANG!!!"". Sure, they did ""SGRRRRANG!!!"" better than others, but it was always ""SGRRRRANG!!!"". The Volta surprised everyone; they brought 14-year-olds to listen to King Crimson, they somewhat revived prog, going against the tide in this period of Lo-Fi bullshit. I’ve followed both projects since the beginning, and the Volta impressed me more. Maybe it’s because I bought into the Volta thinking they did ""SGRRRRANG!!!"" only to discover Televators, but then I heard Acrobatic Tenement and thought "Wow!", while De-Loused left me speechless. My favorite by ATDI is Acrobatic, but I think that’s because I heard it when I was younger; maybe the best is In Casino Out, and perhaps I don’t like that one as much because it became successful... who knows. Anyway, "El Gran Gorgo" is awesome, it’s just that it’s hard to find now... damn. (The damn at the end gives off a strong "oh yeah, I listen to rock metal" vibe.)
