Tool is an American alternative metal/progressive metal band from Los Angel… Read Full Bio ↴Tool is an American alternative metal/progressive metal band from Los Angeles. Formed in 1990, the group's line-up includes vocalist Maynard James Keenan, guitarist Adam Jones and drummer Danny Carey. Justin Chancellor has been the band's bassist since 1995, replacing their original bassist Paul D'Amour. Tool has won four Grammy Awards, performed worldwide tours, and produced albums topping the charts in several countries.
To date, the band has released five studio albums, one EP and one box set. They emerged with a heavy metal sound on their first studio album, Undertow (1993), and became a dominant act in the alternative metal movement with the release of their follow-up album Ænima in 1996. Their efforts to unify musical experimentation, visual arts, and a message of personal evolution continued with Lateralus (2001) and 10,000 Days (2006), gaining critical acclaim and international commercial success. Their fifth studio album, Fear Inoculum, was released on August 30, 2019, to widespread critical acclaim. Prior to its release, the band had sold more than 13 million albums in the US alone.
Due to Tool's incorporation of visual arts and very long and complex releases, the band is generally described as a style-transcending act and part of progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and art rock. The relationship between the band and today's music industry is ambivalent, at times marked by censorship, and the band's insistence on privacy.
There is a raging debate about whether Tool can be considered "post-metal" or not. However, they surely had a hand in its creation as much as Neurosis. The influential act Isis was heavily influenced by Tool's music, so much that they lifted entire basslines and guitar riffing from Tool and even their iconic snare sound was inspired by Tool's style. Much has been made of both Isis and Tool's sound and influence across the years but one thing is sure, modern post-metal has their fingerprints everywhere and it would not have sounded this way without them. Additionally, Tool actually was aware of and liked Isis' music as they chose Isis as touring partners, a move that brought even more attention to Isis' music.

I had a night terror once.
I was being pulled towards the event horizon of a singularity, I could hear it.. calling my damn name - singingly and knowingly, with soft whispers filled with familiarity from secrets unspoken... Between stories untold and journeys never taken... dreams...forgotten.
But I realized that this singularity was also syphoning my essence away (similar to the idea of traveling "Through the Veil" of our world and the "Fade"- D.A.Inquisition... or into the "Land of the Forgotten" from many indigenous cultures) it was pure intensity of resonance, extreme flux, and phasing of all existences.
It was fucking terrifying. Bodily, astrally, spiritually losing who and what I am as a being (of any kind...just having the beinging-ness at the core of my Self no longer responding to who I am ... My being, my conscious, sentient, singularity of self destroyed subatomically to restore itself... and of undefinable proportion with consciousness all it's own... my energy, my conscious self, my existence in all forms I've ever had or will ever have are all being ... ~syphoned out magnetically, ethereally, internally and externally...with a draining of spirit, soul, substance, existence, awaiting an eternity of alternate realities being ripped away, lifetimes upon lifetimes of memories and experiences are gone in an instant...further out and farther away ...drifting ever so closer to that immense accretion disc but it's isn't filled with dust, matter, heated plasma... It is all encompassing pure primal rage to the N-th°
It's filled with screams and howls of an ancient time lost and unheard of.
The fucked up part is, the deja Vu. While all this is happening, THIS track has all the exact sounds that I hear and feel...and it's still soothing and comforting!? Yet isn't.
Squirming volatile mass of the indescribable, yet experienced by the "chosen"...
When I awake, I wasn't even sure of who, what, or where I was! Disoriented and discombobulated to say the least. I liken the maniacal dream to an out-of-body experience, but in the worst way. It's never that hard to readjust to being back and awake after any messed up vivid experience during dreams, because eventually any terrifying events that take place (If and when they do) and sometimes trigger the slow amnesia effect (where even the memory itself fades unless recall is gained through regression) and then be able to go about one's day and life ... but not. this. time. Existence from time to time seems slightly off .

[Latin:]
Una Infinitas
Abominatio nascitur autumno
Hic est tuum temptamen quod temptat tua potentia
Viginti tres gradus ad summam potestatem
[English translation:]
One infinity
The horror begins in autumn
This is your trial, which tries your {power, might, ability, efficacy, potency}
Twenty three steps to total power

Sometimes I like to do a shorter version to the tail end of 10,000 days. Kind of the opposite order?

Hope you find it as interesting as me and my wife do :)
@kusmith
I once played this song from the bar juke box because that was the only Tool song on there. I didn't know what it was and everyone at the bar was very disturbed and wondered who played it. I did not confess to it.

😅😅🤣😅😅🤣
@jainelson8840
Why the fuck would this be in a jukebox? Hahaha. Someone has a sense of humor.
@joeblow1942
It’s so weird that of all of Tools work that this obscure piece would be the only one on there!
@Justinhomii
Lucky you found a good song in the jukebox

@combnunnlee3681
I put this song on for my baby boy in his nursery crib right before bed time, he’s lucky to have such a great dad!
@romanceenthusiasm7972
The real question is what happened during the night dad ❓
