Isnt it meant to be what fans think is the proper ordering or something?

Holy Gift is one of the dumbest ideas in music history. Only an idiot would think the "right" track order would be one that seperates Parabol from Parabola tbh.

"i was just curious. but yeah some people says it sounds better that way."



That's probably mostly because it feels like a fresh way of listening to an album they've known for a long time. But if one song fades into the other it's safe to say the album wants you to listen to those songs in sequence, which is the case here and also the case with that equally misguided OK Computer-In Rainbows thing, so yeah, it's honestly not really up to debate.

Yeah, they made a track order that alternates between the albums, based on some minor connections between the albums (like the number of letters in the names).

What the absolute chuff is this Fibonacci thing? I did a quick Google & got bored (& I love number based theories, I’m just not in the mood). Is it another way to make certain Tool fans feel superior? Not saying you Aiwaz, you’re clearly cool & don’t appreciate their elitism.

You are welcome. You just made my day. I only wanted one person to understand what we did in 2001 and you nailed it. Anyhoo, free t shirts on sale right now.

So I guess you mean the syllables, having read those lyrics (with the numbers). I remember reading about the origins of 666 which was interesting. Don’t know anything about the real meaning of a demon though, probably should.
