| 00:00 - 00:03 | Danny's projection for April was an informal one |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | Maynard is claiming May-July. |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | They're also touring Europe, along with two festivals in the states. |
| 00:08 - 00:11 | But they came to Hershey in 2017, so it's cool |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | Conveniently for this gag, they really are starting in Berlin. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | I was in Hershey. It was boss. |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | Maybe they'll play some Undertow this time. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Dude... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Apparently... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | Apparently, they never do. It is generally thought |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | to be their worst album |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | If Tool is "too weird" for you, or "Schism" is the only song you know, get the fuck out of my face right now. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | I swear to god damned L. Ron! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | It's like everyone is deaf!!!! |
| 01:18 - 01:20 | Undertow made Opiate |
| 01:20 - 01:24 | look like amateur hour. |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | They were finding their style. |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | Undertow was the payoff! |
| 01:32 - 01:33 | But some people say even Opiate was better! |
| 01:33 - 01:37 | How can that be a real opinion? It has six fucking songs |
| 01:38 - 01:40 | and they're all basically demos! Two of them are live! |
| 01:41 - 01:42 | Because it is the most metal! It melts faces! |
| 01:43 - 01:45 | They're not even metal! Not everything that's angry is fucking metal! |
| 01:47 - 01:48 | They appreciate its unrestricted energy |
| 01:49 - 01:51 | They have an emotional attachment. |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Undertow was smarter and bolder! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | The leap in musicianship alone |
| 01:58 - 02:00 | That's enough to place it above Opiate! |
| 02:01 - 02:01 | Not to mention |
| 02:02 - 02:03 | what are easily Maynard's most powerful vocals! |
| 02:05 - 02:06 | He was a machiiiine! |
| 02:07 - 02:08 | A beautiful machine, crafting wonderful tales |
| 02:09 - 02:10 | of grief and need |
| 02:10 - 02:13 | and extraordinary lust! |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | It was a characterization! |
| 02:17 - 02:22 | It was a characterization of the often stark disparity between civility and the greater instinct! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | Also, a brilliant expression of self-loathing |
| 02:30 - 02:31 | But all anyone can say is, "He's angry." |
| 02:32 - 02:34 | Anger is a valid emotion |
| 02:34 - 02:37 | It can be very constructive. |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | Undertow is a prime example of that. |
| 02:43 - 02:46 | It was an exercise in total vulnerability |
| 02:46 - 02:47 | and its execution was stunningly organic! |
| 02:49 - 02:50 | I would shoot myself in the head |
| 02:52 - 02:53 | to make an album like that. |
| 02:54 - 02:55 | But it's just "okay," I guess. |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | We all forgot about Paul D'Amour |
| 03:01 - 03:03 | Like he was a passing note! |
| 03:05 - 03:07 | It's not true, girl. We could never. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | But I suppose it's time to move on |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | It just drives me crazy to hear it reduced to anything less... |
| 03:24 - 03:26 | than it was. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | But I've said all I can |
| 03:41 - 03:42 | People say that it's "negative." |
| 03:43 - 03:45 | They say it's depressing and strange. |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | I hear a man exploring himself |
| 03:54 - 03:56 | with vigor I'll always admire. |
