I hope your being sarcastic, because there is just nothing wrong with that at all.

well lets put it this way. Its about as dumb as having a painting, and having people tell you what the painter was thinking when he wrote. Frivilous!

There is nothing wrong with sharing a theory. Coming to your own conclusion is fine. The way your saying it is as though someone said they were 100% correct.

its pointless really.

[QUOTE=kurrptsenate]its pointless really.[/QUOTE]

As pointless as you complaining about it, perhaps?

[QUOTE=Shadius]As pointless as you complaining about it, perhaps?[/QUOTE]


or defending it

[QUOTE=kurrptsenate]or defending it[/QUOTE]

If you can't find the real conclusion to a song (which in a Tool song's case, it's impossible), having your own conclusion makes listening infinitely better.


and defending, whining, bitching, whatever you want to call it, it's for no reason. Get over it.

Best comeback ever?

[QUOTE=Sliptallica]Best comeback ever?[/QUOTE]


haha you talk about it as if it were open to discussion. You said your peice, and obviously it didnt affect me, so i refer back to original statement

and saying "nice comeback" is worse than no comeback, especially when one wasnt intended

Could someone get me a Tool-related link? At one point, I saw a Tool fansite that had a really interesting phrase about how matter is made up of vibrations, which is sound, which in turn is music, meaning that life is music. I'm looking for the quote, but I can't remember the site it belonged to, and I tried seaching for it. Anyone have an idea?

It sounds familiar but I can't place it...doesn't one of the samples at the beginning of Third Eye say something about how life is made up of vibrations?

I have that Bill Hicks clip on my computer, and I've actually been looking for it recently. Problem is it's lost amongst the rest of my Bill Hicks stuff. When I find it I'll post it up.

The internet made me sound like a dick. I was being sarcastic, because I thought you were being sarcastic.

Alright, enough bickering, you two.

Forming theories is great, in my opinion, becuase I always think that everyone should come away from a truly good lyricist's song with something of his own, and take his own meaning out of what is being said. That way, it's more personal and is better enjoyed.

Yeah, I probably shouldn't have contributed. *deletes last post*

Yeah, I said almost exactly that earlier.

As cool as that one is, no. I don't think it's a Bill Hicks quote, and the phrase I'm looking for hasn't actually appeared in any Tool song. I know it was on a website, though.

The link was recently posted in this thread, I can't find it though.

That was a brilliant quote.

[url=http://www.toolpantheon.com]Since the one thing we can say about fundamental matter is, that it is vibrating. And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such.[/url]

Check out the wicked wallpapers as well. :D

Kurpptguy- I know this is somewhat belated, but either way...You don't like it when someone shares an intelligent lyrical dissection? That guy's post was probably the most intelligent thing I've seen posted in this thread in maybe a week. It showed a unique perspective that I previously did not know of. Now I think of Schism in a different light.(To a certain extent, of course.) forums are all about sharing information and finding out new things, and sharing lyrical interpretations are just one way of doing so.

I don't know if anyone said this yet and im not about to read the next 325 pages of this thread, but...

TOOL F*ING ROCKS

Nope, I don't believe we've been over that yet. Welcome to the forums.

Since the one thing we can say about fundamental matter is, that it is vibrating. And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such.


After it says that he says "And here's Tom with the weather"

I love it.

I haven't seen this done before, so meh, here goes-What are some of your guys' favorite solos by Jones? I know there aren't too many, but whatever, it's worth a try.

I'd say Parabola's solo is my favorite. Simple of course, but still very sweet. The second solo in Third Eye is great too.

I love the first solo in Lateralus' title track, it's extremely cool and fun to play. The one from Parabola is really sweet as well, and of course there's no excluding the Third Eye one. I can't think of any others at the moment.

Parabola's solo has to be his best composed. It changes keys with the song and sounds ****ing awesome.

The first big solo in Triad, the second Reflection solo, the Stinkfist solo, the second Lateralus solo, the Parabola solo (which I'm always singing to myself...), and the Cold and Ugly solo (very underappreciated).
