EDIT: Whoops! These are called the Undertow outtakes, not the Undertow demos. My bad!
1992 demos from TOOL's first album Undertow. Found on the unofficial CD release "Flood: Demos And Outtakes 1991-1995" released by Eye Of The Storm in 2005. Audio taken from kekag's upload of the full CD (Major thanks to him). A demo version of Swamp Song also appears in his video, though it sounds more like a compressed version of the studio recording (or TOOL just did a great job on it!)

This is a great illustration of how much power multi-tracking, a producer/engineer, mixing, and mastering have over the final product. The performances are all there, but these almost sound like different songs at points. It’s cool to hear these songs without all the bells and whistles, especially hearing a single, dry track of Maynard’s vocals. The bass seems a lot more present too.

Gotta say, the rawness of the mix here really makes it sound so much better. Way more texture and body to the overall sound. Always found the original mix real piercing and thin. Now if only these were available in a higher quality.

Omg, I’ve been listening to TOOL since 1995, from just before AEnima dropped. Undertow is still my favorite album from them. So seeing this after almost 30 years, and it has two of my all time fav TOOL songs on it (“Crawl Away” and “4 degrees”) wow so cool

I believe those earlier demos were probably made available anonymously by Paul D'Amour. You can't find the same with the other records because he wasn't part of the band anymore.

@jonihautala5750 4 ай бұрын

That's a theory. But I think when they were starting and were not famous yet and internet wasn't a thing they probably gave demo tapes to a lot of people.

I'd say 'Sober' is the unmixed, unmastered album version. Either that, or Adam Jones is fucking good at controlling guitar feedback.

@humzakhalid7902 4 ай бұрын

he is...its why he prefers really heavy guitars so he can control feedback precisely...for the best example check out third eye from aenima then listen to the live salival version...he does it all perfectly...that said it might just be that this is the demo version and they used some tracks from this on the album with added tracks....and maynard was so good back then its impossible to tell if this is another vocal take or the same used on undertow...same for the other guys

That line "I'll make weapons from my imperfections" is very, very fine, but Rollins' spoken piece is a well-cut and polished gem, sparkling in the pitch black of the place the song takes you to. I remember seeing Maynard's line printed in the liner art and not being able to hear it anywhere on the record. Hank's soliloquy posing as a speech makes the song much stronger, it seems to me.

@@samspade8830 No such thing as "overly political"... it's the perfect amount of political and RATM always addressed important social topics that directly affect the everyday person. Artists have the right to create the music that they want to create.

I found out about the CD this is on through Discogs. It was some bootleg CD that included this among the 72826 demo and the Ænima demos. I found someone had uploaded that CD in full online but hadnt singled out the Undertow outtakes on it, so I uploaded them here. Credits to kekag for the audio, link for the source in the description.

They’re called “The Undertow Outtakes” on the bootleg CD these are on, even though they’re just demos. I thought naming it “Undertow demos” would just confuse people with 72826.

No, this isn’t 72826 which is the demo you’re thinking of. 72826 does not have 4 Degrees and Bottom, and I believe the recordings of Sober and Crawl Away on this upload are different than that of 72826. EDIT: Just checked and yep, these are completely different recordings than that of 72826. FYI.
