      Ouroboros, from 2:30 onward. There is a god. And you know His name.

        Ah, vinyl‘s here in Zürich. Wasn‘t the release date to be Aug 31st?

        no freebie, though.

          mmmm maybe I've been wrong about that thing oddly missing. It might only apply to the songs outside of N.O.X. Looking forward to your views on that.

          but…:

          OUROBOROS AT FULL VOLUME

          speechless. trembling. grateful.

            I got Elder's Lore as a promofreebie with a stickman order. That's how I discovered them. That was great.

            So I listened to the rest of the album (besides N.O.X.) and I don't know what that plattentests.de reviewer heard. Yes it's somewhat similarish to the previous two but also very different. Just like The Tower and The Crucible have a certain common vibe but are still very different from each other. This one also has more hints to older MP songs than TT and TC. There's one with a similar groove to a BH/BC song, another has a vocal line that reminds of something from Cake or Phanerothyme. The Same Old Rock has that She Left on the Sunship-ish hook, as someone already mentioned. But there's tons of stuff unheard so far, especially in the departement of rhythm.

            And if anyone ever tells you Tool is the most out-there visionary grandest band ever, feed them N.O.X. It doesn't sound like Tool at all, don't get me wrong, but in terms of grandezza (and regarding the time it took them for their latest – and quite disappointing imo – album), it wipes the floor with 'em.

            There's just one thing oddly missing, which I can't write here due to spoilering. I wonder when someone will bring it up when everyone has had their spin eventually. :)

              Due to my radiojob I got a promo download version. Only listened to NOX so far. Well, guys…: Be prepared!!!

              I don’t want to spoil it for you, just a note about its scope: While listening I had to think about that animated youtube clip which shows the size of stars. You know the one where it starts with our sun and then there‘s a bigger star next and a bigger one next and a bigger one next and a…. And I thought those stars in this ever growing sequence are Plan#1, STG, The Wheel, LLM, Gullibles Travails, Through the Veil, Ship of Fools, The Crucible and then way way way later the mighty mindbaffling NOX arises and looms over and dwarfs them all.

                It's a snippet from the "This is Motorpsycho" documentary which is found on the Haircuts DVD amongst tons of more stuff (5 hours runtime). Maybe this yt snipped is ripped from the original VHS release. Quite sure it's been enhanced to some extent for the DVD. Best track down the Haircuts DVD for the best possible version…

                  It doesn't necessarily lose some of the flow and coherence, since it's divided into 5 parts anyway. Look at it as 5 songs. I wouldn't be surprised if they thought about that and did a proper ending to pt III and head into pt IV with a fresh restart of sorts. I'll put it on my phone anyway where it all flows in one go. I did my own sequencing for BTS (I think Ghost comes too early), The Tower (starts now with ASFE), RW5 (starts with Köln, then Un Chien), and made a playlist for HBM2 without the middle noisy track, because I like to go to sleep with it. I know it's blasphemic but yeah whatever :) Also you can rip the CDs and burn 'em with your own sequencing. There's always a way for the desperate. :D

                    Calling the new album redundant? Hmmm…. well the reviewer probably didn't get the memo about this one being the 3rd in a trilogy…

                        Supper's O'Riley? Sounds fine with me :)

                        Ah it's Fricke, the ol' chap. He knows his 70s stuff.

                            Second that. At least when it comes to „regular“ MP albums. Might be different with records like Begynnelser, compilations or those 4CD remasters. I mean I do buy everything but those non-regular albums might suffer a bit charts-wise.

                              now that you're mentioning it, I do hear Iron Maiden in there. In the vocal phrasing, this does sound like ol' Bruce at a campfire. :D

                              I'm aware Thick as a Brick came out later. That's what I meant. There's a part in Stormcock that reminds me strongly of a section late in that Tull tune going "do you beliiiieeeeve in the daaaay?".

                              And "Norwegian Orange Xenomorphs", well that doesn't sound too far fetched.

                                Roy Harper, a name that's always floated around a nucleus of bands I love but I never really took the effort to listen to him. But this song is amazing. I just heard traces of Thick as a Brick and one particular vocal melody strongly resembles a song by danish band Kashmir. I guess he's had some impact on the best of them. So here's to some new homework.

                                  let's also note the new (vinyl) album will "come in a stunning 10 panel foldout sleeve".
